2)    You only need a little of this for it to do its magic. For those with short hair, a 2-3cm amount is more than enough for you to feel and see the difference.

3)    Value for money, since a whole tube will last for months!

4)    Does not need a blow dryer for it to work on the hair strands. I’ve tried with and without blow drying, and honestly, there isn’t much difference, so yay to healthier hair with lesser use of heated dryers!

5)    Makes my hair feel extra shiny and soft! A good plus point besides being able to live up to its claim of thickening each hair strand for added body and thickness.

Spray evenly all over damp or dry hair. Scrunch hair to amplify a wavy texture. Allow to dry naturally for a soft finish or, for high voltage waves use a diffuser while scrunching.

2)    A little goes a long way! Don’t over apply it or you’ll end up with stiff layers of hair! That’s not pretty.

3)    I’ve seen reviews that it helps straight hair keep its curl when it’s applied to the straight hair before using the curling thong to create the curls! Dual function!

4)    Creates a messy hairdo easily within seconds! While it does still work well on fine hair like mine, I believe that those with thicker, coarser hair might find this product extra helpful in creating a uniformed messy, textured look to the hair for that stylish effortless look.

**I used 3 cubes (half a block) for my short hair. Do read through more reviews to have a better gauge of the amount that you’ll need as everyone hair texture, thickeness and current colour condition are different.**

The darkest of our henna blocks, Caca Noir is made from a blend of the finest Persian henna and deep blue indigo hues to leave hair soft, glossy, and deeply conditioned. If you have dark hair, you’ll end up with a rich blue-black tint that blends magnificently with reddish hues. As with all our hennas, the more frequently you use Caca Noir, the more the color will intensify. After the first use, expect your hair to turn several shades darker. However, to truly release your darker side, keep applying every 4-6 weeks.

2)    Quite affordable for a natural hair dye product! Especially if you’ve got short hair like me!

3)    Doesn’t sting the scalp at all! I’ve went through bleaching, triple colour hair dyes and highlighting before, so I know how painful and sensitive the scalp can get during these typical hair dyeing processes. This really doesn’t hurt a single bit. Some reviews complain of some dandruff, but overall, I’d say that if you’re fine with chemical hair dyes, this won’t be a problem.

2)    Long waiting time. Be prepared to set aside half a day to colour your hair using this henna, especially if you’re intending on getting the colours soaked deeply into each and every layer of hair. Beauty does come with a price, and in this case, it’s patience and more patience!

I’ve tweeted that I’ll never use any chemical hair dye EVER after trying this black henna dye. Lush carries other colours also, though the spectrum’s not that broad, I’ve seen reviews on mixing certain colours together to achieve a unique colour that you want. Of course, there’s a trial and error process to go through, but even with chemical hair dyes, they hardly come out exactly the same as what’s shown on the box too, so it’s still back to square one of trying things out. Henna hair dye has made such a great difference to my hair condition as it looks and feel very healthy and smooth. No one could tell that I’d tortured the heck out of my hair in the previous months prior to using this. I’ll try this again on my hair for a good 6 hours to achieve a true blue jet black hair after i get bored of my brown streaks
