Hey! I hope you are all well.
Before I had dreadlocks my hair was many different colors, my absolute favorite being purple. But most dyes have residue which is very bad for dreads! I bought indigo, it should get here today, I’m very excited to try it! I’m going to do a strip test of indigo with the Budlight Ice that is recommended elsewhere on this forum, and one with vodka. since there aren’t any dreadlock posts here, I thought I’d start one! my dreads are 2 1/2 years old, I’m doing the natural way which means no crochet or extensions, just clean hair without brushing. this method is recommended by Soaring Eagle over at dreadlocksite. I wash my hair the same amount I always have, 3-4 times a week with a natural shampoo.
Hi, Mahogany is dark brown with a hint of red. It is very hard to remove it. You can try this technique another customer gave us l, https://www.hennahut.com/strip-henna-hair-dye/.
I actually purchased your mahogany off of Amazon I don’t mind the dark brown with some red in it it be nice to have it all even
I would have to see it to be certain, it all depends if you are gray, or if it is white. White will show more red. Gray less red. And after you do it just maintain the roots with an application brush, so the entire head does not get darker and darker.
What about using the oops product to help remove it?
@veecolantonio71 seems some people are using color oops, but it works over a long period of time (some faster than others) and not sure how good that would be for your hair, I am not familiar with the ingredients.
I have a question, I read the directions about the baking soda in the water. When I do the baking soda in the water do I let it sit in my hair unrinsed overnight? Or do I rinse it out and just not shampoo?
Can I email it to you? If so what is your email?
I emailed you, no I didn’t use vinegar, I read the back of the package and followed the instructions, I did it days ago and it’s not getting any darker it’s been about four days now
I was out of town sorry, I got all 5 emails and responded.
Also did you use the color oops?
No I didn’t I didn’t do the baking soda either, I went ahead and did the henna because I assumed it would be brown, I never thought my grays turned orange. I don’t have the time to do the two step process that’s why I purchased your blend, so what are you going to do? Refund? New henna in dark brown? You saw the pics, I want this to work out
