A friend recommended henna for my hair, to use as a strengthening treatment especially after protective styling. I used the following ingredients: Raw apple cider vinegar, Henna powder and water to balance out the apple cider vinegar.

I mixed the henna and covered it for about 12 hours (overnight). I then applied coconut oil to my hair and covered in a plastic cap  and left it in my hair overnight as a pre-poo.

The following morning , I detangled and sectioned my hair;

I applied a Clarifying shampoo by Giovanni.

Washed

I then got my henna mixture and re-stirred, it was darker showing that the henna had released.

I lined my sink with paper to avoid staining, applied coconut oil around my forehead and ears to prevent henna staining my face as well. After application, I then covered my hair with a plastic cap and left henna mix to sit on my hair for 7 hours. I put the remaining mix in the freezer.  4-8 hours is  recommended time for henna on hair. I then  rinsed my hair under running water until the water was all clear.

I then deep conditioned my hair for 2 hours with the Argan Oil Intense deep conditioning Hair treatment by Hask beauty .

I then rinsed thoroughly with water and applied a Cold pressed virgin olive oil.

I then applied Shea-butter as a complete seal for my hair.

I then twisted  and air- dried my hair.
