Change the way quite easily. For this example, it is possible to dye hair with henna. This will be discussed in the article.
What it is?
A coloring agent obtained from the dried leaves of thornless lawsonite called henna. This product has gained initial popularity in the eastern states. As trade prosperity met with henna and beauty, living in different parts of the world. This product of natural origin rather quickly became popular and was used primarily for dyeing hair.
The plant, which is made of this natural dye is a shrub. Its height is comparatively small:. Only about 1.5-1.8 m, this plant grows in countries with hot climates. The sun's rays affecting leaves lawsonite, contribute to the fact that they accumulate nutrients. It is for this reason that during coloring Henna not only changes the color of the curl, but also contributes to their recovery.
Interestingly, the Lawson thornless night allocates a specific smell. The same "flavor" and appears in the preparation of the dye composition of the crushed material. It should be noted that the smell is not a repellent. For example, many women say that when stained with henna they do not experience such discomfort, as the application of paints, rich chemical components and various fragrances.
Coloring composition for hair and eyebrows made from the crushed material obtained from the leaves of lawsonite. It is important to note that the quality of the product of grinding is of great importance.
This is noted and henna manufacturers. Lawson grows mainly in India, Egypt and Sudan. However, the planting of this heat-loving shrubs can be found in other countries with a hot climate.

Modern doctors, of course, do not confirm the efficiency of using such a natural product for the treatment of infectious diseases. However, in individual Eastern states, supporters of the People's Medicine Henna is still used to treat these pathologies.
Advantages and disadvantages
One of the advantages of henna is its natural composition. A high-quality powder contains quite a few biologically active components. These substances are able to have a beneficial effect not only on the rods of hairs, but also on the scalp. Some women even note that after staining the curls by this means, they noticed the acceleration of hair growth.
The composition of this natural product includes the components indicated below.
- Complex organic resin. It helps to improve hair elasticity, and also makes them smooth and shiny. Helps reduce excess dryness of curl tips.

Henna in its composition is much "richer" than many popular paints. It is no coincidence that many women around the world and to this day use this tool for staining.

Experts recommend that women who have recently completed a perm curls, remember that henna staining can cause acceleration of straightening hair. Do not use this tool for people who are allergic to henna. For this reason, prior to the application locks the product is recommended to be sure to conduct a test to determine individual sensitivity.

Experts recommend the ladies who have colored hair with henna during the summer be sure to wear hats to protect hair from sun exposure.
Women with increased dryness of the scalp, hair dyeing with henna and may not be suitable. In this case, after a single dye any adverse consequences are not usually the case. But after a few such procedures scalp can become even more dry, and the hair does not look well-groomed. However, such a reaction is an individual.
Expectant mothers who decide on hair coloring Henna, it should be remembered that the result of such a procedure can be a bit of a surprise.
