HAIR or: O HOD, this is not a musical.

So, with a little of this, this weekend my hair got deliciously red. We wound up getting the stuff for long hair–1000g for 45$. J also got one of the bars for shampoo and holy shit is it awesome. First of all, the henna alone makes my hair smell wonderful, like fresh hay, but the bar on top of it? Glorious. It’s got a very pine smell to it and I love it.

Though, when I talk to The Fu about this, she brought up a good point: If your hair is rather dry, I wouldn’t recommend the bar. I have very, very oily hair that requires frequent washing. Otherwise, I have enough oil on my head to power a small car. The bar really cleans hair and strips away most of the oil. So while it leaves my hair feeling gloriously clean, someone with dryer hair might come away with hair like straw and that would be bad.

The 1000g came split into two 500g, which is great because 500g is pretty much how much it takes to do both mine and J’s hair.  The last time we’ve done this, the mixture hasn’t quite been thin enough, but this time, it was just right. It didn’t take me too terribly long to do her’s – I did her’s first and then she tackled mine. It took quite a while to do mine because I just have so much hair and it’s ridiculously thick. I am, however, terribly pleased with the results, even if the arms on my glasses are now stained sort of red. :3
