Crowncare Henna

• Spiraled and curled strands are permanently elongated

• Frizz is virtually eliminated

• (IYKYK) "Wash Day" becomes a 30-minute process

• Hair dries without need of a drying tool and dries faster, creating the perfect braid out and twist out, every time

• Unless fully saturated, hair is now reversion-proof meaning less mechanical and heat styling damage

• Henna binds to hair keratin, filling microscopic gaps and smoothing lifted hair cuticles along the hair shaft, supporting integral strength

• Single strand knot mitigation means less tangling and cutting, meaning more length retention

• Lustrous shine and extreme softness

• Hair requires less product and time to style

• Naturally dyes grey hair and ebbs grey hair growth

• Soothes scalp inflammation

• Promotes hair growth

• Strengthens roots for reduced hair shed

• Nourishing ingredients + less time consuming wash days means more frequent washes which are a conduit of growth

• Henna conditioning is a natural, semi-permanent hair dyeing technique

• Covering skin, painted surfaces, and clothing is imperative to protect from dye transfer

• Color lasts 8-12 weeks, washing out gradually, leaving no line of demarcation at the roots

• Naturally dark hair colors experience no superficial color changes, but dye deposit is visible when strands are held to a light source or in the sun

• Naturally light hair colors will see notable color changes according to their henna selection

• White and gray hairs adopt an orangish to dark red hue according to henna selection

• To rapidly achieve elongated spirals and curls, henna condition every 7 to 14 days

• Achieve permanent reversion-proof strands after 8 to 10 applications

• Combining the Crowncare Henna Conditioning process with the Crowncare Silk Press maximizes strand elongation and humidity-proof results

• Once hair has undergone 8 to 10 applications, a maintence cadence of 4 weeks is recommended to condition new growth, no later than every 6 weeks
