Getting there means lifting first — often twice — and then placing the most fade-prone pigment there is onto hair that has just been made porous. Red molecules are the smallest and least light-stable of the lot, sitting in a cuticle that never closed back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis one doesn't lift anything.\u003c\/b\u003e It works on a light base you already have, so the cuticle stays shut and there is no damage to repair afterwards.

Henna's pigment releases more readily in mildly acidic conditions, which helps if your colour usually comes out lighter than you hoped. \u003cb\u003eThis works because there is no indigo in this shade\u003c\/b\u003e — don't carry it over to our browns, blacks or Reddish Blonde, where acidity holds the indigo back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnd keep the paste damp.\u003c\/b\u003e Cover with a shower cap for a full hour.
