Pure Moroccan Henna...for hair only

The same Moroccan henna that you know and love, but a slightly lower quality than the henna used for body art so it is excellent for dyeing your hair.

Henna is a transparent dye that coats the hair shaft, binding with the keratin. It conditions the hair giving it shine and body, in addition to a rich red color. Because it is a transparent dye, it will not change the color of your hair, only coat it with color. Therefore, black hair with just have a reddish sheen when seen in direct sunlight, but blonde hair will become a brilliant orange and brown hair will become a deep shade of auburn. If you are dyeing your hair to cover the grey, the grey hairs will come out a bright, almost pink orange.

It is not recommended that you henna hair that has been recently dyed with chemical dyes, or that has been permed. There is a strong likelihood that the henna will react in unpredictable ways with the chemicals in your hair. It is strongly suggested that, before you henna all your hair, you test the henna on some hair from your hairbrush or bits cut off from a recent haircut. Maison Kenzi cannot be responsible for the results of hennaing your hair with our henna but we will provide you with as much information as possible to bring about the results that you want.

Henna Gloves - reusable

$6/pair

These are cotton knit Chinese gardener's gloves. They are great for holding your henna in place; they stretch just enough to get it over your hand without dislodging the paste. These gloves are reusable and can last for years; if they get stained with henna you can just toss them in the washing machine.

Once the paste of your design is dry, just lemon-sugar your design, and then slip on the glove very carefully. You can also wrap your hand in toilet paper, and then put the glove over this. I use these all the time whenever I want to sleep with my henna on.

Essential Oils for Henna

Essential oils rich in terpine (all of those listed below) have the ability to help darken the henna stain very quickly. Adding any of these oils to your paste will give you dramatically darker stains in less time. Choose an oil whose fragrance you like or choose by price; all the oils listed below have roughly the same effect on the stain quality. I usually add about 10 drops for every tablespoon of paste. Enjoy!

Common Name	Botanical Name	Origin	Size	Price
Cajeput	Melaleuca cajuputi	Singapore			sorry...temporarily unavailable; you can purchase niaouli instead as it has a very similar fragrance
Cardamon (steam distilled) Cardamom is a warm and wonderful spice oil. Think Chai. Great for all manner of digestive disorders and whenever its warm and sweet presence is called to give body.
Elettaria cardamomum		Sri Lanka	5 ml	$15.00
Clove Bud (organic, steam distilled) Often noted for toothache, clove is analgesic and antiseptic. Good for digestion and where warmth is needed. Dermal irritant so use with care.
Eugenia carophyllata		Madgascar	10 ml	$8.00
Eucalyptus Polybracta (organic, steam distilled) Commonly known as Blue Mallee, this is the principal species of eucalypt used for essential oil harvest in Australia as its 1,8-cineole level is over 90%.
Eucalyptus polybractea		Australia	10 ml	$10.00
Frankincense (gathered*) Also known as Olibanum, this is the oil for meditation, for slowing down the heart and bringing calm. Frankincense was used by the ancient Egyptians as part of their burial rituals.
Boswellia frareana		Oman	5 ml	$15.00
Geranium (organic, steam distilled) Geranium should be called the balancing oil, as that is how it manifests itself. Useful for most conditions relating to women, geranium is also a diuretic and detoxifier.
Pelargonium roseum		Egypt	10 ml	$18.00
Lavender (organic, steam distilled) Lavender is such an exceedingly useful and delightful herb...And this is our basic lavender workhorse--affordable, functional and beautiful.
Lavandula angustifolia		Bulgaria	10 ml	$12.00
Niaouli (wild crafted; steam distilled) Another member of the Melaleuca family. Sweeter and more fruity than cajuput or tea tree, niaouli is also a good anti-microbial oil.
Melaleuca quinquenervia		Australia	30 ml	$15.00
		Australia	10 ml	$6.00
		Australia	5 ml	$4.00
Ravensara (Ecocert organic**, steam distilled) This is a very aromatic ravensara, that smells a bit anise-like. It's an excellent anti-microbial oil and generally considered safe for most skins.
Ravensara aromatica		Madagascar	10 ml	$12.00
Tea Tree (Demeter organic***, steam distilled) This is one of the most widely used oils in aromatherapy, great all round antimicrobial with lots of empirical data to back that up. Especially excells as an antifungal--athlete's foot, etc. Always appropriate.
Melaleuca alternifolia		Australia	10 ml	$10.00
