Product Description
Reformulated
(again) with your feedback! We’ve increased the cocoa butter levels again, so
you can get back to the colour you love.
Glaze
your hair strands with our henna hair dyes, varnishing the outer layer of your
hair with a tone of your choice.
What’s in it for you?
Indigo,
henna, noni fruit and coffee combine to create a cool-toned hazel brown henna
glaze with oodles of gloss. Our 100% natural hair dye is ideal if you have an
existing hair dye allergy, are looking for a safer alternative to synthetic
hair dye or just want shiny, healthy hair.
What colour will your hair go?
Brun
adds beautiful cool hazel tones to brunette hair, adding body and incredible
shine! You can build cooler tones with further applications. To glaze blonde,
white or twinkly grey hair with dazzling brown hues, you’ll need an initial
base coat of our Rouge henna brick. Got a burning question? You can make sure henna
is the right choice for you by reading our FAQ.
How does it work?
Henna
contains a pigment called lawsone that has an affinity to the keratin in your
hair. It adheres to the cuticle, adding a layer of sheer colour without
changing your natural hair colour. This will very gradually fade over time.
Henna can be used to help bind other materials to the hair to create brown
shades, like indigo, coffee and noni fruit - a technique historically made
famous by the Iranians. Our addition is cocoa butter which softens and aids
slip through the hair as you apply and enables us to make a self-preserving
product.
How to use:
Henna
is a gloriously messy, hippy process - and the idea is to get as much of it
onto the hair as possible! Our essential bamboo
henna application brush is ideal for getting extra precision. Our
unique cocoa butter henna brick is designed to be enough for one head of
mid-length hair and melts down with hot water into a rich paste, which you
should apply generously. See our top tips for application
here.
What’s in it for the planet?
Synthetic
hair dyes contain chemicals known as aromatic amines that are not only
associated with health risks, but may bioaccumulate in our ecosystem. Hair
salon wastewater has been found to contain colour molecules unconsumed by the
dye process, as well as mutagenic byproducts, that are not believed to be
effectively removed from our water systems. Choosing a plant-based, ppd-free
hair dye like Lush henna reduces the number of these materials in circulation.
How to store:
Your
henna brick will arrive in a beautiful recycled paper packaging, with designs
inspired by the organic, floral henna designs traditionally found in Middle
Eastern and Asian skin art.
Keep
your henna brick in its wrap in a cool, dry place, ready for when you use it.
Henna bricks are best used fresh and you can put any leftover melted henna in
your compost.
To continue our commitment to reduce single use plastic, your henna will no longer come with plastic gloves. Please protect your hands with your trusty reusable rubber gloves.
