I'm an avid Nupur user myself and ITA with you!! I chose it because it already has other great powders mixed in.

My question is... Do you not follow up your Henna treatment with a moisturizing DC? Do you just scoop your Henna out of the bag and mix the ingredients in immediately or do you let it sit for a few hours?

I usually mix my Henna with OJ and let it sit overnight so that the color can release... and then I add my oils before I apply it to my hair...

Forgot to answer part of your question Marsha: Nupur comes in 170g bags. I paid $3.99 ea for mine.

The Nupur is good too b/c the amla in it will give you more of a brown color so it tones down the fire engine red you would get with other brands. But once again, if you have dark hair, it's not going to matter either way as it's like as CurlyNikki once described it: it's like a red crayon on a piece of black construction paper.

Marsha and Sheila: I got mine at Patel Brothers in Bellerose (Queens).

SanTara: After about a month, the conditioing effects of henna have generally worn out. The color that is deposited though is permanent.

I don't use henna for the color. I use it for the conditioning benefits. It doesn't really color my hair anyway b/c it's brown-black so if I get any color it's just a bit of red tint that's only really seen when I'm out in the sun. If I were to use it for color (if I had lighter hair), I would choose henna b/c it's a more "natural" alternative (to get diff variations of reds or browns just add diff things like amla, coffee or paprika etc. indigo after henna for jet black hair) to traditional dyes and when done right doesn't dry out your hair and conditions it. Don't know of any traditional dyes that do all this loveliness! www.hennaforhair.com is great place to get more info on henna.

DaJadedPoet: It will last about a month. After a month has gone by, the effects, outside of the color which we know is permanent, of any henna usually start to wear off.

Shawnystheone: Yes girl! It's the best! I'm so team Nupur now.

Tina: Play nice! No need to push me. Sheesh! LOL.

Whit: You can learn how! www.hennaforhair.com is a great site and is where I learned everything that I know about henna. Make sure you download and read their henna pamplet. You will learn everything you need to know to decide rather you want to use henna or not.

Dollface, where did you get the Nupur henna. I will be in town next week and would like to pick some up. I was gonna start with Cassia (about to order some online), but would like to also try this brand. I've never hennaed before so I'm a bit nervous. Can I ask what was the price point for the Nupur? Thanks.
