Is Henna Hair Dye Safe For Natural Hair? Here’s What You Need To Know...

Henna is a plant-based dye that stains hair, skin, and nails. Unlike black or neutral henna, which contains chemicals, pure henna is free from artificial additives. It’s a permanent stain, making it hard to remove once applied.

Improper use of henna can lead to dry, brittle hair and breakage, particularly for those with delicate or sensitive scalps. Leaving henna on for too long can cause hair to snap when rinsed, leading to unwanted hair fall.
