In pursuit of naturalness, many have decided to abandon the chemical dyeing of hair, using "harmless" natural henna instead of the usual harmful colors. Indeed, henna is a product of natural origin. It would seem, what kind of trouble can it bring? But as they say, each medal has two sides. The most important advantage of henna is its naturalness. Due to this, staining becomes hypoallergenic. On this, in fact, everything. The version that henna dyeing is very useful for hair is a myth. They really look more lively and thicker, but this happens because of pigmentation and hair clogging of the paint - it is physically more voluminous, but not because it is healthier. Among the shortcomings can be noted:
• Bright, but uniform color. Here we are talking about a natural product, and not about the many preparations based on henna, which consist half of the usual hair dye.
• Inability to dye hair - after dyeing with henna, the paint is not taken. In some cases, especially when lightening, very original shades are obtained.
• Henna is difficult to remove from the hair, most often only scissors help.
Methods for removing henna from hair
So, having decided to experiment or unknowingly, but you managed to dye your hair with henna. After that you didn’t like the result or it’s time to change. Here is the question: "Can I wash the henna from the hair?". Immediately make a reservation, if the staining was long and periodical, more than one year, then no other way than the radical one will help. In all other cases, you can try. In this case, there are only home-made recipes for henna removal from the hair, in the barbershop you will not be offered anything, since even a non-ammonia wash does not take this thing.
1. If you have used henna only a couple of times, then a gentle way can work - oil extracts. To do this, it is necessary to thicken the hair with any vegetable oil, preferably olive or burdock, to wrap your head and periodically maintain the heat with a hair dryer. Well, if you can not be limited to the standard half an hour, but stand for 1.5-2 hours. Then rinse with suitable shampoo and use an intense balm.
2. When the paint enters, it is necessary to loosen a bunch of scales in order to pull it out. For this ideal 70% alcohol. Do not use vodka, its fortress will be small. So, alcohol is applied exclusively to the hair with a sponge. Try to get as little as possible on the skin, overdried, it will begin to peel off. Alcohol is aged on the hair no more than 5 minutes. Do not try to act according to the principle - the longer, the better, you can severely burn hair. Now, without washing away alcohol, we do an oil extract, similarly to item 1.
3. Not bad copes with henna ordinary soap. You can often find a recommendation to use the economic, but in fact any natural alkaline soap (baby, bath, flower) will do. It will not be possible to completely wash the henna, but it will be possible to lighten and remove considerably (up to 60%). After a month, you can paint the usual paint.
4. Not bad help in the fight, acidic washes - kefir, sour cream, yogurt. You can do them 2 times a week.
Useful tips
• Do not use aggressive products such as ammonia, chlorine, professional washes. Do not lighten hair dyed with henna.
• Remember that patience and work ... If you did not manage to wash it off the first time, then it is worth repeating the procedure. The main thing! Focus on the condition of the hair, do not burn them just like that. Learn to use oil.
• In the end, henna can be painted over. Naturally, on top of fresh, the paint will not fall, but after a month of home washes, everything will be real. When everything is completely hopeless, you can change the color of henna, for example, by rinsing your hair with a strong infusion of tea, you will get a darker shade. It is also possible to tint growing horses, simultaneously cutting the growing ends.
And remember, nothing is impossible. The main thing is not to despair and look for only positive moments in everything.
Basic rules for washing
If you examine the reviews and stories about whether henna can be washed from hair at home, they will split into two camps. Someone managed to do it, and someone will argue that this is impossible. The first, most likely, simply carried out all the tips and recommendations on this difficult matter, while the latter experimented or simply missed something. Try to adhere to the basic rules of how to wash henna from hair, and the result will not disappoint you.
- The more time has passed since the dyeing, the less chance you have to remove the pigment. If the color of the curls turned out not at all the one you dreamed of, it is better to take care of the wash immediately, within 1-3 days. After this time, it will be much more difficult to wash off the henna from the hair.
- Do not try to paint over henna by other means. Those chemical and synthetic components that make up modern paints will not be able to remove redheads, but will chemically react with henna and as a result will give fantastic, bright colors (green, orange, yellow), which will be even harder to get rid of.
- Recipes washing masks and rinsing a lot. When choosing, be guided by the type of your hair. Do not forget that some ingredients are suitable for dry strands, but can worsen the condition of fatty.
- Having chosen a recipe that you think suits you, test the wash with some kind of occipital cord that can be hidden in case of a failed test. Apply the prepared tool on it and leave for a while. The result will show you whether to use this henna remover or continue the search for a recipe further.
- For funds, take only the freshest, natural products. Try for such procedures to find homemade, not hatchery eggs, farm, and not pasteurized milk. This will increase your chances of a successful outcome of the henna removal from the hair.
- Flush masks are applied the same way as everyone else. Use them on clean, slightly damp hair. Rubbing into the roots does not make sense: they are distributed only along the length of the strands. On top, everything is wrapped with cellophane and a warm cloth. Action time - from 15 minutes to an hour. Rinse can be decoction of herbs or plain water. If the mask ingredients remain on the hair, it is allowed to resort to the help of shampoo.
- The frequency of use - once every 2-3 days. To wash off henna finally, it may take from 5 to 10 procedures. It all depends on the individual indicators, so that someone will have to be patient and not wait for miracles from the very first wash.
Everything is simple, but very important: if you do not adhere to these recommendations, you can not only wash off henna in general, but also ruin your hair with an even more undesirable and unpleasant shade. Much will depend on how correctly the recipe was chosen. 
I grew RUSSIAN spit! According to the village recipe! +60 cm for 3 months.
Raw yolk is whipped with 50 ml of good quality cognac or rum. To sustain from 40 minutes to an hour.
- For normal hair number 2
In a glass of medium-fat kefir (2.5%, for example) dissolve the yeast (50 gr.). Hold for 30–40 minutes. 
Two raw yolks whip with 4 tbsp. spoons of burdock oil. Pour half a teaspoon of mustard powder with warm water, mix and add to the yolk-burdock mass. You need to keep an hour. Burdock oil can be replaced with castor oil.
Sour cream of average fat content (for example, 15%) without any additional ingredients to keep on the head for about an hour.
- Rinsing with vinegar
Dissolve in the pelvis (20-25 l) 3 tbsp. spoons of vinegar. Carefully rinse your hair in this solution daily.
Now you know theoretically how to wash henna reliably, effectively and perfectly safe for healthy hair. Such speeds do not promise quickness of action - but as a result you will get either a less bright shade or your original color. In addition, all these masks also have nutritional abilities. So the curls will get a beautiful, natural glow, will become stronger and stronger. For this, it is worth trying and making sure from your own experience that henna can still be washed off.
How to wash off henna: ways
It is possible to get rid of the color obtained by means of henna with the help of folk remedies, allowing to free the hair structure from its pigment. Of course, an absolute result is unlikely to be achieved, but it is quite possible to mute the color.
Alternatively, you can dye your hair a dark color. But at the same time there is a risk to get a non-uniform shade. Before performing this procedure, henna will also have to be washed from the hair. And even more so, you do not need to make dyeing yourself, but seek the help of a professional hairdresser.
With henna remover from the hair is better not to tighten. Already literally in a fortnight, she is so akin to a hair that it will be almost impossible to get rid of it. Thus, the less time has passed since dyeing, the higher the likelihood of a positive result. In addition, if you follow the basic rules and recommendations, you can achieve a great effect.
There are a huge number of popular recipes that can help wash out henna from the hair. But how to determine how effective they are and whether they fit a particular hair type?
The best method to test and try on an inconspicuous place, for example, on strands of the back of the head. After applying the tool, you need to wait a bit, evaluate the result and continue washing or try another recipe. Increase the chances of success using natural fresh produce. It is best to purchase them on the market.
How to make a henna mask
The method of application of masks for washing henna is similar to the use of conventional masks for hair. Before the procedure, the hair should be washed with shampoo and slightly dry. Rub the composition into the roots does not make sense. It must be carefully distributed over the entire length of the hair. After applying the product, a cellophane cap is put on the head and warmed with a towel. Completes the process of shampooing the head with the subsequent use of conditioner or balm for easier combing. Masks make a course of 13 - 15 procedures, depending on the result obtained every three days.
Many women doubt whether conventional products can rid their hair of unwanted coloring pigment. In fact, it is quite realistic, since natural products contain fats, acids - fruit or dairy, which allow you to cope with the task.

Juliet, what is useful henna?
I know that she removes moisture from the hair and then, the hair splits.
Alcohol, opens the hair scales, and the oil knocks henna. With alcohol, it seems to me, too much. You can rinse the length of hair with hot water, apply a mask of deep recovery or moisturizing, the same effect will be.
Household soap, the same thing, alkali (opens scales).
Vinegar, on the contrary, closes the scales. Therefore, it is better to first apply a moisturizing mask (cover with a hat, warm it up). And rinse with diluted vinegar. And it is better to squeeze the lemon into the water)))
Within 2 weeks after dyeing, wash off more easily. Later, henna grabs, it will be harder.
Also with paints. Want to wash off the undesirable color, deep masks. And vice versa, in no case (if you like the hair color), do not apply the mask on the hair for 2 weeks after dyeing. Rinse better with lemon. And after 2 weeks, heal lope fit)))

And anyway, no matter how much you wash off, you will not be able to clean everything up. It may not be visible visually, and if you paint it in another color, it will come out. Be sure to warn the master that you were painted with henna, even if a year ago, and you have a long hair and you did not cut it.
- February 1, 2010, 10:51 pm
This is only a visual effect. Why is it hard to wash it away and the hair becomes thicker? Because the molecule is revealed as a star. Here you have both the thickness and tenacity of color. But when revealed, it removes moisture.
Although, what suits you may not suit me. All people are different. Maybe you have less dry hair and you dry it with henna. The color also suits you comfortably. I don’t bind with henna, once was enough)))

I only painted half a year with henna (I did not notice any improvement), then I got tired of the color and began to get rid of it. At first I tried to repaint in another shade of henna. On the packaging allegedly "chestnut". So I got a bright burgundy color. Roared for a long time. Then she went to the hairdresser, asked how to wash it off. she said try alcohol and oil. 4 times did, hair just fall out steel. I’m doing nothing now, but the roots are growing back and terribly ugly .. It took more than a month since the last painting, so soon I’m trying to try to change my color, it’s scary, but I can’t leave this horror on my head. Advise, is it worth it?

Henna I paint for 5 years. Sometimes I mix with basmo and coffee. Color tired, I do not even know what it is for me, with different colors it looks from light red to dark Russian and mahogany color. Slowly grow roots. My hair is bad, very thin. I thought henna would steal them, but the difference in 5 years is not visible. A mixture of henna-basma is washed off after the first application after 3 days after painting the shampoo, only the reddish remains. In general, I think what I can do, but I don’t like the idea of 70% alcohol, because I'm afraid that after that I will stay bald.
Who wrote about the oil .. ride burdock oil from the store?
- 3 June 2010, 15:58

Hello. I painted with henna from various companies (from cheap to expensive imported), of course my hair was better, didn’t thicken, but thickened in length and looked healthy. After a couple of years, the color firstly changed - henna accumulates in the hair and the color constantly gets darker, secondly, the color is tired. I decided to flush. Washed in the cabin, powder. Hair, of course spoiled, but not hopeless. For a year henna is gone. But a friend who decided to get rid of her at home, a year went with dark green hair, although perhaps more healthy than mine.
My advice, if you decide to repaint, contact the professionals!

Hello cute girls!
What can I say about washing and bleaching. The process is very lengthy, and as mentioned earlier is not very beneficial to the hair. Rather, one harm.
2 months ago I myself listened to a friend about her cuddles-life and decided on this brave act myself. My native hair color is light blond. Very beautiful. But at 17, I am full of maximalism. So she paid for her confidence. For beginners I want to say one thing DO NOT EXPERIMENT WITH Henna. My hair is long, it was soft, only very split. After painting, henna became tough, heavy and. And preobreli color of a mad orange. At the moment, color, forgive the pun, as if pee on me. The roots are very crawled out. A nightmare spectacle in general. Alcohol is very dry hair. So if you want to be like Baba Yaga with a mop on your head - TURN)))

Strange. A friend painted with henna, she did not like the color. All she did was wash her hair 7 times in a row.
- July 8, 2010, 11:06
A few days ago, she dyed her hair brown with henna (that is, in addition to all kinds of oils, coffee was added to regular henna), the color turned out to be dark and in the sun with dye. The color is categorically not mine and my hair has become very dry. After rubbing hot oil into the hair for 2 hours, and after rinsing with some vinegar, the color began to wash off, and most importantly, the hair does not deteriorate.
Effective methods
If you decide to get rid of henna, then you need to remember that after its action you can not use chemical paint. If you dyed your hair with henna the day before yesterday, and the next day you realized that the reddish shades were not for you to face at all - do not rush to get paint.
Note!
A chemical dye can wrap your luxurious golden strands in a bright orange color, or worse, a bright marsh.
Not every lady will face such a shade.
What to do than to wash henna from the hair?
There are three options:
- Wait until the strands grow back and cut them off.
- Go to the hairdresser and repaint the curls in black, but it does not always work.
- Try to withdraw their own folk remedies.
As you understand, the first option is very long. Each girl strands grow in different ways, plus the whole is ugly to wear the roots of a different tone.
How to go on a date or to work with curls of different colors - at the roots of the natural, and at the ends of red? Therefore, the most effective method that can wash henna from hair is the use of homemade masks.
Tip!
If you for the first time dyed your hair with henna and the effect did not satisfy you - this is fixable.
Hairdressers recommend not to wash the curls two - three days after dyeing.
It is during this time that the natural component penetrates deeper into the hair structure.
And if you immediately wash off with shampoo, then it will not last long.
With the help of this dye can be achieved interesting shades.
Basic recipes
- "Pulling" the color with a mask with oil. A good henna neutralizer is olive oil. To prepare such a tool can each of you. Take enough oil for your curled length and heat it up a little.
With your own hands, distribute the oil mass over the entire length of the hair. To enhance its effect, wear a plastic cap and wrap your head with a towel. Action time is two hours.
Apply the oil on the strands with your own hands.
- Sour cream application. The method, though not very convenient, but effective. Take the missing sour cream and put it on the strands, wrap polyethylene in the head and leave in this form for an hour. It will help to muffle the red tone.
- Yeast and Kefir. For one cup of kefir, take forty grams of yeast. Dissolve them in a liquid and apply the suspension to the strands. Spread over the entire length, you need to keep this mass on the hair for at least two hours.
Masks will help to return the natural shade, but not immediately - you will need patience!
- Scale will help alcohol. Take alcohol (70%) and apply it on the hair. Leave for five minutes, no need to flush. At the end of time, distribute any oil along the strands, to enhance the effect, wrap the head and leave for 30 minutes. (See also the article Burdock for hair: features.)
- Even in the question whether it is possible to wash henna from the hair, ordinary table vinegar will help. Take sixty grams of vinegar and pour it into a bowl of warm water. In this water you need to hold the strands for ten minutes.
- After that, wash with plenty of water, wash with shampoo and apply any balm.. And your curls will become a shade of copper color.
Probably, many girls are also interested in how to wash black henna from their hair.
If you do not want to refuse staining with henna strands, but you do not want to have a reddish tint, you can slightly change the color with the help of coffee beans.
Grind four tablespoons of coffee beans in a coffee grinder and mix with two spoons of henna. If your hair is long - the amount should be increased.
We brew the raw material for coloring not with water, but with warm kefir. In this case, you will come out dark hair color.
Henna flushing rules
Often it is easy to remove henna from the hair, if you follow all the tips.
First, you need to remember that the longer the pigment has been on the hair since the moment of dyeing, the less likely it is to eliminate it. If the color is not as originally expected, it is best to wash it in the first 3 days. Then it is much more difficult to do.
Secondly, you should not try to paint over henna with other substances. Synthetic hair dyes can not save a woman from bright hair, but henna reacts with the components of an artificial dye, resulting in fantastic shades of green, yellow, orange, etc. From these colors get rid of even harder. Women think than to paint henna on their hair, but it is better not to even try to do it, otherwise an unpredictable result will appear.
There are a lot of recipes for different rinses and masks, but they should be chosen depending on the type of hair. Some components are only suitable for dry curls, so that they will only worsen the state of curls, which are characterized by high fat content. When the choice is made, experts recommend using the composition only on one strand. So the test is done.
It is best to choose strands on the back of your head. Then in case of failure, they will not be visible. The prepared tool is applied to the curl. Then you need to follow the change in its color for a while. And then, depending on the result, henna is washed off from the hair or the substance is applied to their entire length.
