LorraineOregonHairAuburnThick or Coarse HairPerfect For Bringing Back My Natural, Younger Color.I have been using this product for many years and the only thing I would use if I couldn't get this is pure powdered henna., I have naturally reddish brown hair that had gotten darker with age and now in my 50's is starting to grey at the temples. Auburn or Burgundy brings it back to a perfect natural youthful color without the harsh chemicals and awful smell.posted Jan 26, 2013Link to this post

BonnieManhattan Beach, CAHairWhiteNormal HairNaturally Red & Keeping It That WaySince birth my hair has been naturally golden red. But, alas, if I didn't use Colora henna I would now be totally white. I vowed I'd keep my hair red as long as I am able. For about 20 years I am been using Colora henna--the "gold brown" in the powder form. My hair turns out to be more natural looking using the gold brown powder with gold highlights--not the garish red. For some time now when touching up the roots over the white or gray, it turned the hair a greenish color, which would disappear in about one week's time. It wasn't prominent because the golden red hair covered over the roots. I called the Colora Customer Service and was advised to use the Auburn cream formula over the pure gray hair. Next time I will try the cream over the gray portion and see what happens.posted Sep 21, 2012Link to this post

Rosa R.NYCHairDark BrownCurly HairRead The LabelI use henna to color my hair. I like Colora for its convenience when I don't want to or can't make my own henna paste. For those of who with no to disastrous results, or those of you who don't care for the application process or the waiting time, read the label. Just like someone who uses the wrong "perm" will have awful results, the same is true if you use Colora Henna on dyed hair. Don't blame Colora if this happens. This is Colora Henna, not L'Oreal or Clairol. If you have colored your hair with a commercial product, there is a strong possibility you will not get the results you like. Colora Henna is a henna product. It is not a commerical chemical based hair coloring product. There is a big difference. And if you desire using a non-chemical product to color your hair, especially if you have allergies or sensitve skin, use plain henna with tea or coffee or the various safe recipes you can find online for excellent results. I like Colora; I am also willing to invest the time to safely color my hair.posted Aug 5, 2012Link to this post

Angelica C.Los AngelesHairGreyCurly HairColor Treated HairFine or Thin Hair:( Drips !Tried this and followed instructions but ohmygosh it drips and looks like oil and so I left it on for an hour and the color barely got my hair. I did not know I had to leave it on for 3 hours ! If I did leave it on that long I'd probably have my whole house floors filled with hair paint !posted May 23, 2011Link to this post

GeorginaSydneyHairNormal HairNice ProductI have been using the Colora creme in Mahogany for about 5 years now. My hair is about 15% grey and the rest is black. It gives me quite a nice red streak through the front of my hair.
Heat Helps!
I have bought a few ( back up as they are now vintage appliances) of those old 1960s cap type hair dryers on ebay. If I wrap my head in glad wrap and then use the dryer I get a much better red colour in one hour (3 without the heat to get the same shade of red).Has to be HOT .
I try not to wash my hair more that twice a week to keep the red colour from fading. I dye it about every three to four weeks.
Not sure about the solvent black etc that is in it, but my hair is in beautiful condition.
I only wish there was one with a blue berry colour. Using natural berries or beetroot etc.
Until then I will keep using this product.posted Apr 20, 2011Link to this post -

Jan H.PaHairMedium BrownFailed From The BeginningIt might not be the fault of the product as I am allergic to conventional hair dyes but, fortunately, I did the behind-the-ear test. Within 12 hours my ear was on fire and now (24hours) it started to weep and blister. I didn't think this would happen without ammonia or peroxide. I guess I'll have to embrace being mousy and grey.posted Jan 9, 2011Link to this post

NdbHairDark BrownFine or Thin HairPowder - Great Creme - BupkisI actually picked up the Creme by mistake, thinking it was the Powder Henna in Chestnut. The boxes are almost identical. I have used the powder quite successfully for over 10 years in different shades. I normally have grey on the top and my hair is darkish brown.
Initially I thought great, I have grey on top and no sloppy henna droppings. I put on the creme and put the hood on and left it on for 2 hours.
When I rinsed out the creme - my hair was still grey on top and darkish brown. NOTHING took. Not even a hint of red/auburn in my grey.
No point in using this product again since it doesn't work at all. I don't even feel that I got much in the way of conditioning either.
If there are some secret instructions that didn't come in the box I'd love to know what they are.posted Dec 7, 2010Link to this post -
ChromeIt's OkayI purchased and used several bottles of Colora Henna Creme. I like the ease of application and the lack of smell. The color is beautiful...for about 10 days, then it's gone.posted Mar 24, 2010Link to this post

Cara BoutcolorBe Aware!!ANY "HENNA" that can make colors other than red/auburn.. is not PURE henna. Its a compound dye & will react adversely if you have any other permanent color on your hair!If you have virgin hair, go ahead & try. If your hair is previously colored, it will turn scary colors or even melt your hair away. (metallic reactions)Dont get me wrong, I love pure henna.Just remember this when comtemplating products such as these... they may or may not be bad.. but ALWAYS bad with previous permanent color!!posted Jan 8, 2009Link to this post
