Yes you can. It is best to use fresh coffee powder roughly 3 heaped tablespoons freshly ground coffee in one mug of boiling water. Boil until it reduces to roughly one mug. It will impart a dark brown stain and remove the redness

Is henna used for dying hair the same as henna used for tattoos?

It is not quite the same, if you speak about natural plain henna powder, there`s powder in body art quality and powder for hair. Body art quality henna is made of leaves that were picked from the top of the plant. These were exposed to the sun a lot and therefore contain a lot of the dye molecule that you need for a satisfying colour. Henna for hair is made of leaves and plant parts that don`t contain as much dye molecules. If you dye your skin with that henna the stain won`t be dark. Those henna for hair products that you can buy from beauty suppliers mostly contain a lot of other stuff and little if any henna at all. Most of them even contain chemicals and should not be put on skin.


What does henna do to your hair?

Henna is a great conditioner for hair, it does dye your hair, so you need to make sure it will be about the colour you`re looking for. You can use henna only or henna mixed with Indigo to achieve the tone you want. Henna alone on light hair can be orangey red on black hair you will get a red "halo" effect. Always test your henna mix on a couple of hairs that you took out of your comb or test it on a small strandd first. Check the web or ask your local henna artist for a henna hair recipe. Depending on your starting colour, you can get almost any tone from a bright red to even black (with Henna and Indigo in a two step process). With natural Henna powder mind you, the stuff you get from beauty suppliers contains little if any Henna at all.


How can you tell black henna from narmal henna?

I suppose you mean in powder form, Henna is never black so you won`t be able to buy it as a powder. People mix Henna with chemicals to get "black henna" which is very harmful and should not be put on skin. Sometimes people sell Indigo for hair and call it black henna but that is nonsense, you cannot use Indigo all by itself to achieve a black colour. You won`t find black henna powder anywhere, so there`s no need to be worried about that.

What is henna?

Natural Henna is made from the leaves of the henna plant. They are ground up and mixed to a paste with a liquid, be it lemon juice, coffee or tea or bottled water. If the quality is good enough it can be used for body art, if it`s not that high, it can still be used for dyeing nails and hair. The colour on the skin can vary from a reddish brown tone to a cherry black depending on which body part you put it on, how long you left the paste on, how well you follow the aftercare instructions and where the powder was harvested. If you want to determine the resulting colour on your hair, you need to factor in your natural hair colour and look for recipes that will give you the colour you`re looking for. There are plenty of mixing options for henna for hair and a lot of tones can be achieved from red to brown. Even black is possible if you dye with Henna first and then follow up dyeing with Indigo. Sadly you can find a lot of products online that are called henna but really are not, it`s mostly chemicals with little or no henna at all. If you`re interested in buying henna powder or paste, buy from a reputable henna artist in your area and ask them any questions you might have.


Does henna powder expire?

I think it does. Cause I had old henna powder that doesn't give color anymore. I tried new henna and it gave me lovely reddish tone.
