Commercial Hair Dye vs. Henna for Hair Color
Hair coloring has been a process used by civilizations dating back centuries. Changing the color of your hair was as much about beautification then as it is today. While the methods might have changed a little bit, you have two primary options to change your color today: henna or commercial hair dyes. While admittedly, our salon can only offer you commercial hair dye, we like to encourage our customers and clients to understand that this is a better approach for them than henna is. Here’s a little more explanation:
Options
One of the things that sets traditional hair dye and henna apart is the options that you have for colors. With henna, you are very limited to colors ranging from orange to reds, with very little variances. Traditional dying offers you a full spectrum of high quality colors that you can change whenever you see fit.
Better For Your Hair
Want to know something surprising? Henna is not as good for your hair as traditional dying (when done professionally) can be. The plants and ingredients for henna dying actually quite regularly dry out the hair and make it hard to manage.
Drawbacks
The main problem people have with henna over traditional dying? The time you have to wait. Often bottle dye options take up around an hour or an hour and a half of your time. Depending on the color that you are looking to achieve, you can likely expect twice that long for henna (and there aren’t even that many colors you can choose).
