Yay my henna finally came yesterday and I hennaed it last night.  I love the color.  It turned out a really burgundy color; before it was a light brown. 
 

My mix was:

 

100g body art henna

50g indigo

2 tablespoons amla

2 tablespoons cloves

tea tree & lavender essential oil

Apple Cider Vinegar & Indian Spiced Chi Tea to mix with

 

I mixed up my henna and put it outside for 3 hours because it was hot yesterday.  Then I mixed my indigo and amla and waited for dye release.  When it was ready I put it on and left it on for 4 hours.  Im really happy with how the color turned out.  The color will probably change a little bit over the next couple of days though.  I plan to do henna again this weekend to get an even richer color.  I am officially a henna adict.

 

Does anyone know how to post pics?  I will post my before and after if I can figure out how to.

The easiest way to post is through a picture hosting site.I personally like photobucket.com.But there are many out there and they're free to use.
 
I really liked the color i got with henna.My only gripe is that it made my hair feel dry.I only used it once so maybe i just needed to try it a few times.

Hi Summer,
 
I like tinypic.com -- it's very easy to use.
