This article provides tips on how to safely blow dry hair after applying henna without damaging or stripping away the color. Heat tools such as blow dryers, curling irons, and straighteners should be avoided on hennaed hair as they can dry out the hair and fade the color. Pure henna, pure indigo (for black), and products without metallic salts are recommended.
Heathers can feel especially dry after a henna treatment, so rinse them out with shampoo before conditioning. Hair oils and conditioners can be used to re-introduce moisture, but it is important not to use shampoo for 2-3 days after rinsing out the henna. It is also advised to leave the hair at least 48 hours after rinsing out the henna to avoid drying it.
Henna powder can be used for hair care, but it is essential to avoid tan after henna to prevent burns and permanent marks. To maintain hair after henna, follow these steps: pre-conditioning before washing, using moisturizing shampoos and conditioners, locking in moisture after conditioning, and using a serum or mist in between washes.
After applying henna, use Ancient Sunrise® Rainwash according to the instructions, rinse your hair, and use a detergent or clarifying shampoo. For extra oily or dye-resistant hair, use dish soap.
The best way to maintain hair after a Brazilian blowout is deep conditioning every time you shampoo, using a wide-tooth comb to detangle your hair wet, and avoiding hair brushing. Sleep on silk pillowcases every night and avoid using heat on your hair right after henna.

To avoid damaging your hair, follow these tips:
Don’t style hair when it’s wet. When hair is wet, it’s more likely to get damaged. Use straighteners and curlers on dry hair only. Use a heat protectant. This keeps the hair at a consistent temperature. Reduce the heat to prevent damage. Keep the setting in the 200- to 300-degree range to prevent damage from heating up too quickly. Don’t heat and reheat. Use heat-styling tools on each section of hair only once. Heat damage increases with repeated exposure. Use a leave-in conditioner.

How to darken hair after henna?
Pure indigo is the best darkening dye for henna. Mix indigo powder with water and apply to hair. To tone down the red, leave the indigo on for a short time (5 or 10 minutes). How to avoid orange tones with henna. These tips only apply if you have used pure natural henna or pure natural henna powder. They don’t work if you’ve used traditional dye or a mix with chemicals. You can try to remove some of your color and tone it down by adding another color. You can lift unwanted dye with olive oil, vitamin C powder, or baking soda. You can also put a brown or black natural hair color on top. If your hair dye is too red because of too much henna, a brown or black dye should counteract it. The darker dyes contain indigo, which darkens the red/orange color of henna, making it go dark brown.
How long after getting henna can I shower?
Keep the design warm to get the best stain. Don’t let the paste sweat or it will run. Keep it warm for a day or two after the paste is off. Keep it dry for as long as possible. For special occasions, keep it dry for up to 24 hours. Use a barrier cream like Vaseline, lip balm, paw paw ointment, or Sudocreme when showering or swimming to keep water off. Water will make the stain fade too quickly. Chlorine pools will make your henna stain disappear. Wash up gloves with a rubber band around the open end are handy for showering.

Can I straighten my hair after dying it with henna?
You can use henna on straightened or perm hair, but not at the same time. Wait at least two weeks after the treatment to do the henna. Chemical colors use agents that roughen the hair shaft to allow the color to penetrate. This is difficult to do with henna, so it can leave your hair dry and more porous. If your hair is previously colored, use lots of conditioner. It will take at least 12 weeks before you can try a synthetic color change.
Does heat speed up henna on hair?
Do: Heat during processing and after rinsing. Heat opens up the cuticle layers of hair strands, allowing better dye penetration. Keep your head warm by covering it with a towel or cap. You can also use a hairdryer on your head for a few minutes at a time, or sit somewhere warm and sunny. Heat speeds up processing and makes the result more saturated. You can use heat again to speed up the oxidation process after rinsing the henna paste. Hennaed hair is lighter and brighter right after it’s rinsed. It takes several days to a week to settle into its final color. Heat styling tools speed up oxidation. Hennaed hair darkens over time. This darkening is permanent and can only be reversed with lightening products. To avoid darkening hennaed hair, avoid using heat styling. Don’t: Mix henna paste with hot liquid. Many henna for hair products tell users to mix the powder with hot or boiling water. This makes the dye molecule break down. An acidic liquid makes more aglycones available in the paste at the time of application. Boiling water makes the henna lighter and brassier. With henna, patience is key. Do: Apply henna to clean hair. If your hair is dirty, the dye won’t take. For the best results, use Ancient Sunrise Rainwash mineral treatment, then a clarifying shampoo. Shampoo your hair well. Don’t use conditioner. If your hair is oily or resistant, add a few drops of dishwashing detergent to your shampoo to prepare it for dyeing.
Can you use heat on your hair after henna?
Heat. Heat it for a long time. If you normally keep henna on your hair for an hour, use heat for at least 30 minutes. If you don’t have a “sit under” hairdryer, use a blowdryer. Heat opens the hair shaft, while cold closes it. Heat it up, but use cool water when you wash and rinse it. Don’t wash it until it’s cooled off. Wash off the henna. Use cool water to seal the hair shaft and keep the henna in. Use a good conditioner and don’t rinse it out too much. Leave the hair a little wet. This will cover any remaining holes in the hair. It helps the color last! Color retention conditioners have a base that won’t rinse off, so they “seal” the color in.
Can you use heat on hair after dying it?
Don’t use hot tools on dye-treated hair. Wait a few days before using a flat iron or curling wand after dyeing your hair. “Heat from a tool can make your hair fade and become brittle and dry. Don’t use heat tools right after dyeing your hair. Use them rarely. “Use a heat protectant if you use them,” says Renegar.
What should you not do after henna?
Don’t use lotions or oils the day you get your henna. These will ruin the henna stain, even if you wash afterwards. So it’s best to avoid them that day. If you spray tan, do it at least 24 hours after henna. Henna and spray tans don’t usually go well together. The henna will appear lighter.
Wear clothes that let your skin breathe for 6-12 hours. If you want a shoulder piece, wear a sleeveless/strapless top.
I’ll take photos of the finished work, so think about what you’ll wear and your nails.
📹 5 Tips that will make you LOVE your Grey Hair!
There has been an amazing movement towards embracing grey hair in the last several years. With salons closed, going gray was …
I have been perusal your content for a few years. Now, that my daughters are getting up in age (10 and 8 thinks they are a teenagers😒), I am sharing some of your content with them. This article is a good one for my 10 year old who wants to wear her hair straight sometimes. I am natural too but I like wearing braids as my life is very busy. Thanks for sharing. We will try the products in this article. I love your skin care routine and natural makeup up looks. I have never worn makeup but my daughters are expressing interest in it. So your makeup “natural” makeup tutorials are a go to to introduce them to light application. Thanks again and I enjoy your cookbook. A good purchase!
Lol everytime I straighten my hair it goes back to slightly puffy like 20 mins later! I’d get so upset like I just wasted this time for nothing but this article is giving me the courage to keep trying but maybe I’ll wait until its a little cooler. Your articles definitely get me hype about natural hair styles!
Hello! Your hair is simply gorgeous. I really miss your early regular thrifting and styling articles. I still refer back to them when I’m trying to put an outfit together. Your styling was way ahead of its time. Oh, I ordered the scalp brushes! Thanks. Good morning! I wish you well. STAY ENCOURAGED 😊 LIKED 👍
Hey, Kim😊. I’ve been perusal your website from time to time, and I always enjoy your content. Your hair looks so healthy. Just a tad jealous, as my hair is thinning, so bad. Can’t seem to find the best combination to help with the re-grow process. I probably need to be more consistent with my wash routine and maintenance in between. May I also say that you are wearing your pregnancy very well😊 No matter what you wear, it’s always on point. Wishing you a healthy, safe next few months😊❤
Beautiful job. I have been wearing protective styles. I plan to straighten mine soon this winter. I may roller set then flat iron not sure. But thank you for sharing. I just watched another article but our textures were not similar. My hair is kinky curly and I enjoy learning from those with similar textures. ❤❤❤
I have been using the brush past straightening method both times if straightening using a Conair Ceramic iron for like 20 years and it gets it bone straight everytime I flatiron which is once every 2 weeks (I have been natural for almost 18 years). I use a serum after flat-ironing to lock in the cuticle. It gets super shiny afterwards.
The Hot Tools Professional Evolve 2 in 1 works like a hot comb to flat iron and marcel curlers. I may try that product because my frizz factor is extremely severe. Using the Influance Corling Wax helps my hair very much. However, it can get quite messy and I don’t overuse it. Thanks very much for introducing me to a potentially successful product.
Thanks for using techniques and products that are simple and to the point and affordable. I remember your original article when you did this. Trying hard not to use a relaxer,( no hit against anyone who does)my hair grows best in its natural state, but when I did this it did not straighten all the way and frizzed up on me real quickly.😄 I am still hopeful to not do it though. Nice article.
I went to blonde (professionally done) so that the gray wasn’t as obvious. My usually healthy hair began to feel dry, so I quit that. The blonde made the grow out much easier. I’ve been told that I look older, but m not going back. It’s stressful and expensive and time-consuming. Yes, use purple shampoo and conditioner. I only recently heard about the oil (from a new hairdresser). I’ve also stopped fighting my waves, which means less heat. I’m looking for a non-diffuser technique so I entirely do away with the heat. Thanks for all of the tips.
I started using black castor seed oll shampoo for strengthening my hair and after a month I see a huge difference in hair fall and breakage. It also smells really good. I take two hair supplements too and use a rosemary/mint shampoo and a homemade rosemary and clove spray. I will add the purple shampoo now though after my hair has had some recovery time. My hair’s texture is certainly different but it is by no means dry. It still can feel oily especially at the scalp after a couple of days.
I’m 57 and I only need to cover my roots around my hair line and part line every six to eight weeks. My plan is to let the gray hair behind the ears from top of my hair down fill in thicker, because I don’t want the strong gray only in front and brunette in back. It’s working, when I run my fingers through the back I see those sparkles coming through. The hope by 60 I’ll be able to get the gray blending in the front and avoid awkward color blocks with my brunette hair.
Great article Ms. Gabi, and your friend is indeed a beauty!! I have been gray since age 51 (medical issue required no more color) and am now 70. Fortunately I love my grey hair and went from bleached cool tone blonde with darker rooted color to a dark grey color with lighter halo. I skipped the transition, couldn’t deal with it as a hairdresser, and cut it into a very short spiked hairstyle that took it down to the area of natural growth and I wore that style for years. It has lightened considerable over the years, is now multi-tonal grey and light silver with light silver halo and is shoulder length at this time. I am really enjoying it and embracing my natural waves/curl pattern. It is much more fragile however and has thinned with age. Would love to see some articles addressing this. TY Gabi for excellently executed articles with wonderful content. 😘Roberta
I came here for the talk about grey hair and the tip about moving into ashy colors is my favorite but I need to know why your neck and chest area look so soft, smooth and satiny? Are there specific products to achieve this or are you just one of the lucky ones? I really hope you respond to my comment. Thx
Hi Gabi, as always the best advice for some of us! I’m over 60 and now started to go gray at the front. Not so much. For about 7 years I use self dying hear color Herbatint Blond. Should or can I use the purple shampoo so my roots will be nice? I still have the color on most of the length of my hair. Please teach us 😀
I am 20 and I have had gray hair since I was 9 I used to take them out every single time till last year. One of my friends had a lot of grays and she would NEVER take them out and I stopped and my head is so full! I have seen my grays are very very white. I have gotten compliments on it, but I want a natural more gray color since my hair is super black naturally. But I will definitely be trying the purple shampoo!
I’m a 49 year old guy. I think it looks fantastic when I see gray with highlights…it generally looks better on women over 50 than when they dye their hair more traditional colors. It’s like the gray matches the condition of the skin and facial muscles, but they still have fun with it and use highlights to make it artistic. Very good look
First, you are such a beautiful lady! I love your style. Are you Brazilian/Portuguese/Latina? I get that vibe. My hair used to be so glossy, thick, and dark, almost black, with a red glow. But now I am in my 50s and it’s getting grey so fast, since menopause. Menopause is a crazy time, everything you used to be changes to something freaky. So, I am tired of dying my hair, it’s been so many different colors now, I don’t know what to do with it, because I do have some red tones in it, so it contrasts badly with grey, and the grey always shows through fast. I love her hair so much, you did an amazing job on it, the color, texture, and length. Yes, we can be gorgeous in our 50s with grey hair. 🙂
Please, please more on transitioning. Though I’m in a situation where I haven’t really been able to get my hair done. This is largely due to financial reasons, Yay car repairs, but with an autoimmune disease I’ve had a multitude of health issues as well. I am one month shy of it being a year since I’ve had my hair colored. That is a whoooollllle lotta gray. Lol. Unfortunately it’s been a year since a haircut, but that is a whole different issue. 😅 I have really been debating whether or not I want color the gray back to my normal very dark brown. I’m only 51 so I’m not sure yet about making committment. I’m also VERY pale and I do look a little washed out. Is there a way to maybe liven the color up in some way to maybe add more dimension?!? I figure if I want to commit to the gray this would be the best time since I’ve already gone so long. I will take a look around your website in case I missed it, and keep an eye out for new articles 📹. Thank you for your website. I just love your positive energy and infectious smile.
I use Kerastase masks and take several supplements since my 40s. I have been into organics since my 30s and my mom taught me to take care of my skin in my 20s but we didn’t have the great products (or internet) back then. I also recommend a rice shampoo like Viori but know that there is an adjustment period, especially if you use shampoos with sulfates. My grey hair is dark and light steel with white and never took color well. I’m sensitive to sulfates and gave those shampoos up in my 40s because my hair was breaking so badly. I started going grey at 26 with a skunk stripe down the back of my head and colored for many years. Finally, gave up. Hair is long (down to my bra strap), curly, soft, strong, and dries quickly which I’m told means it’s in great condition by my hair dresser. Curly hair usually takes longer to dry. People compliment my hair and my skin. Take care of your bodies, ladies! When you get to your 60s, everything changes no matter what you do!
My hair is waist length and the front is white and gray, top back layer is still 80%brown, the underside, back layer is almost all gray and frizzy-it’s really noticeable when I wear my hair up. It’s starting to get brittle and break off. I don’t want to cut it short, but how can I make it stronger, less brittle and look sleek and shiny like it used to?
hi, I really learned a lot from this article. I am at the exact same stage in my transition; and I am the ‘stark contrast’ women who has box dyed my hair with mahoghany/cherrywood color. HELP! What can I do at home, on a budget, that may help ? What brand of products for Alfrican American Natural hair, do you suggest?
Thank you for article. I looked at some of the things you recommended, and the Goldie Locks is far too expensive for me sorry. I am on a pension, so I tend grab the cheapest things. I used to colour my hair blonde to cover the grey and it works but am getting to the stage of ‘couldn’t be bothered colouring my hair anymore’, plus I like the grey look so I am now letting the grey take over and it’s looking good. I will look for a more affordable hydrating shampoo and conditioner maybe with a touch of purple colour. I only wash my hair twice a week. I do use serum and oil on my hair because as you said grey hair is very coarse and oils etc seem to combat this. Debbie from New Zealand.
Hello Gaby. I’ve a question,,,, I have a olive brown skin, my skin has a cool tone . My hair is normally dark brown almost black but for years now, i’ve dyeing my hair always in a medium brown hair color. My roots grow out now and it’s for allmost 40% silvery white. I don’t know what to do, because I think it would age me terribly when I go for all white hair . What should I do best? Friendly greetings from Belgium. 😀
Hey Gabi–I’m almost 55 and about 50-60% grey. And it’s not getting any more grey, which I am super frustrated with. It’s been this way for years. What is with this stopping in the middle of the change?? Go big or go home!! Grr. So anyway… it looks like it COULD be cool (got some thin white money pieces in my bob) but nothing else. What should I do…wait patiently? Or add more grey and hope the rest of the hair gets the hint?
I think articles like this are great. Giving you the missing information that you didn’t know you did not know…lol The other hand articles like this can hurt & sometimes let down people/ women who come on YouTube for information who don’t have the resources to have or get the tools to have the wonderful results given…for instance I came on here to try to find out how to enhance my grey hair that are coming in alot more since I turned 50yrs . I used to be able to get my hair done every 3mos, but now that I’m no longer married well doing that is not an option anymore .Watching & getting all this information about my grey hair,hair loss & hair care well I just make me think without resources my hair is doomed.
I’d love to see tips on natural blondes going grey. I’ve always highlighted my hair but my “grays” are coming in more salt and pepper so it’s actually darker. At first my stylist was trying to match my whites but I’m feeling over processed and my hair is getting dry. There’s not much out there on blondes transitioning over. Would love to hear your input. Thanks!
So glad to see this covered. I started getting grays my teens, and by my early 30s was completely gray. I am now 59 and it is silver white and down to my tailbone. It certainly is a learning curve to deal with, and my hair care continually evolves. It’s very different treatment than pigmented hair. These days my hair is super shiny and soft and quite happy, but it took a lot of trial and error to get here. I love your tips, and your friend is gorgeous. ❤
My challenge – I went grey during the lockdown. It’s a gorgeous white/silver color with the shiny texture and feel of a child’s straight hair – which is fantastic! But it’s nearly impossible to style. If I use electric curlers or velcro curlers, the curl drops within 60-90 minutes. What can I do to get some body?
Great info. You are both beautiful looking, not all of us have that gift, he-he. Must we buy more product to help? What about coconut oil treatment, what’s your thoughts on this great stuff. What’s your take about blondes that turn gray/white. It totally washes me out. Then there is the whole situation of finding a person to help you get the right contrast. Know anyone in Spokane WA that can help???
Plz can have the link to to the dyson airwrap and also I am really dark hair level in-between 5 and 4 and grey hair by the roots looking for a box dye burgandy red colour that will cover my greys any suggestions would be fab been searching on here that’s how I can across your fab vids full of information 😀
My hair is 47 inches long..I love it ….Its VERY black..I don’t want to continue coloring, since before I could color every 3 or 4 months ..now is almost every 3 weeks..I cant keep doing this..I want to go gray..BUT since my hair Is so black and long ..looks very bad..and I don’t want to cut my hair…any tips?..Thanks for the article..
I LOVE my S&P hair! 4 years ago I shaved my hair off. It was ruined from yrs of coloring my dark brown hail blonde. It was lifeless, dry, breaking off. So……I buzzed it off! It grew back darker, but with white streaks and hints if reddish brown. I now have almost elbow length virgin hair now! if you are growing it long, oil the ends! Otherwise it will break off and you will not get any length. Enjoy and love your gray!
My hair had grown out for a year and had salt and pepper with some pieces in front that were pretty silver/white. I went to a hairdresser to have her blend the grey with more silver/white. After she tried two times bleaching highlights, it ended up yellow. I’ve gone to a new stylist who corrected the highlights (more bleach) and I’ve already seen some breakage in the front. What should I do to nurse my salt and pepper back to health? I’m 71 and have fine, thin hair…I feel so defeated, Gabi. Thanks for listening!
I was born a dark brunette. My health made me get to the point that I couldn’t color my hair anymore. I have completely grown out my gray. My problem is, I have brown at my roots but they turn silver at the top. On my sides, my hair has some brown and a lot of gray. I have random silver streaks of silver in them. People have told me that I shouldn’t get the same person to do my highlights. I told them that it’s doing that all on it’s own but they don’t believe me. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
This was great Gabi! thank you. OK, so about leave in conditioner: I usually apply it right after the shower and the I wrap my hair in my microfibre turban for 20 minutes 9I have thin grey hair), after that I apply a bit o f serum and styler. Is this good ? or should i wait to apply the leave in after 20 minutes? I absolutely LOVE the goldilocks leave in, by the way
Soooo, I’ve only started my gray hair journey. 4 inches in. My hair is dark and has been dyed mostly dark colors. If I want to do any of the lighter tones, would I have to bleach? My hair is coarse, curly, and long. The one time I got wild and went lighter my hair turned into a broom. Are there gentle options for the transition? Most days I embrace the harsh contrast but I have a long journey and patience is not my strength. Thank you!
Hi. Thanks for this article. People may not get it but unfortunately there are many very yong women that hit premenopausa or menopausa very early. And starting to have dry fragile grey hair around 30s is not a confidence boost. So here I’m looking for ways to take care of my hair. I was so frustrated at some point that I buzzcut them and they was super long before! Now I have a question. I do shampoo only twice a week. It is ok to do the hair mask once a week? And to alternate purple and hydrating shampoo? Thanks for your work.
I have fine curly/frizzy hair. It was very straight until I had children…then POOF! I have colored my hair since I was early 20’s not for ‘color’ but my hair is naturally oily and coloring seemed to help with keeping my hair drying a bit so I did not have to wash my hair every day. Currently when I color my hair I can go 3-4 days without washing. I just turned 50 and of course have lots of natural gray. I LOVE the color, salt/pepper and would love to know if you have advice on allowing that natural gray to grow out and keep my hair from being so oily?
my hair is natural, mousy mid brown with grey streaks around the face and underneath. I still have a slight warmth to my natural hair on top and underneath at the back. Can you get a product that enhances the greys without masking the mousy brown. I either find a depositing shampoo and conditioner for brunette but it’s not for grey hair and turns it orange or red. Or the purple shampoo makes the greys brighter but is drying and taking the colour away from the mousy brown hair.
My hair is quite med – dark brown and starting to get random grey strays and right side near top grey. What would you recommend I do? My hair is down to my butt and am thinking of getting a long layered haircut. I am going to be 60 in a few months and I really don’t want to cut my hair as I have lost my hair twice (because of illness) and it was very short and hated it. I have a heart shaped chubby face. And don’t have a lot of extra money. What would you recommend?
