🌰 How to Apply Henna Rich Chestnut

(With Optional Two-Step Method Using Henna Pure for Gray Hair)

What You’ll Need:

  • Henna Pure powder (Step 1 – pre-color for gray hair)

  • Henna Rich Chestnut powder (Step 2 – final tone)

  • Warm distilled water or black tea

  • Two non-metallic bowls and spoons

  • Gloves

  • Application brush

  • Hair clips

  • Balm or oil to protect your hairline

  • Shower cap or wrap


🌿 STEP 1: Pre-Color with Henna Pure for Gray Hair

Gray hairs can appear too cool or brassy under chestnut shades if not pre-treated. This first step helps lay a warm orange-red base for the Henna Rich Chestnut to bind to evenly.

  1. Mix Henna Pure

    • Blend the powder with warm water until it’s smooth and thick.

    • Let the paste rest for 2–3 hours for dye release.

  2. Apply to Gray Areas

    • Section clean, dry hair.

    • Apply only to grays or gray-dominant areas.

    • Wrap in plastic and leave for 2–3 hours.

  3. Rinse Thoroughly

    • Rinse with water only—no shampoo.

    • Dry hair completely before continuing with Step 2.


🌰 STEP 2: Apply Henna Rich Chestnut

Now that the gray strands have a red base, the Henna Rich Chestnut blend will develop into a beautiful warm brown with red undertones—perfect for achieving a natural chestnut finish.

  1. Mix Chestnut Powder

    • In a clean non-metal bowl, mix with warm water or black tea (to deepen tones).

    • Let it rest for 30–45 minutes.

  2. Full Hair Application

    • Divide your hair into sections.

    • Apply from root to tip, covering all hair evenly.

  3. Wrap & Wait

    • Cover with a shower cap or plastic wrap.

    • Let sit for 3–4 hours.

  4. Rinse & Oxidize

    • Rinse thoroughly with water only.

    • Let the color oxidize for 48 hours before shampooing.


✨ Tips for Best Results:

  • Use black tea to boost warmth and deepen the brown base.

  • This two-step method prevents uneven grays and ensures color lasts longer.

  • Final color may appear brighter at first but will settle into a true chestnut brown within 1–2 days.
