Vatika NaturalsPermanent Hair Dye Burgundy, 100% Grey Coverage, Ammonia-Free, for Rich, Long-Lasting Color, No Damage, for Healthy, Vibrant Hair - 6 Sachets (10g each)

This henna hair color is easy to use because it’s packaged in individual pouches that are already measured out. All you have to do is add the correct amount of water. I ended up using two packets to blend out my gray roots into my hair. I have porous hair so I put a lightweight oil on my scalp and hair before I applied the henna. That step helped protect my scalp and hair from drying out. I ordered the rich black in. It lived up to its name. It’s darker than my natural color, but I like the look. It isn’t stark but it also isn’t subtle. I’d forgotten that henna can make your hair feel thicker and fuller until after I dried mine and saw/felt the results. I’m really glad I found this product. I will be getting rid of all the other commercial hair dyes I’ve been using. There’s no reason to use caustic toxic chemicals when henna can do the job this well.

This color turned out better than expected. I mixed the powder in a bowl until it seemed like the right consistency and then poured it into a hair dye bottle just to make it easier to put on my hair. The color seems to have taken very well and my hair is so soft and shiny. Almost like I had a hair treatment done. Just look at that shine! We will see how long the color holds up, but I can't believe the shine from this stuff.

It worked despite getting a batch that was close to the expiration date (bottom of box and sachets indicate expiration: 07/2025). I did things differently though; I applied it on the same day I washed with only shampoo my hair to ensure there was no oils or any type of build up on the hair so the henna could adhere easily, then towel dried it and used lukewarm water instead of regular cold water to mix the Vatika henna and instead of 40 ml I used 35 ml to make a thicker mixture. No allergic reaction so I left the henna longer on my hair and then rinsed and towel dried it.

Consistency was good. But not enough of the product for the money. I had to use 2 packets to get enough to cover.

I purchased this item specifically because I’m allergic to any kind of hair dye I read in the description. This product was black Hanna however, after a few hours of rinsing it off my face began to break out in hives leading to blisters to a full on chemical burn my face I applied the henna and my neck, all swollen because of this product. I asked the seller to please be more descriptive as this can really cause someone much harm Possible death. It has blocked my airway because of the information and is very dangerous if you are allergic. i’ve uploaded a few photoexamples of what my skin looks like under my beard as an example of the inflammation and the blisters

Got what I wanted

This was my first time trying this product. The last time I used a Hannah product it was a different brand and I did not have an allergic reaction. However, I did have an allergic reaction to this product. Here’s some of the good things I like to say of this product. the color was extremely nice. The coverage on the gray was also nice and it was easy to apply. The not so good obviously the allergic reaction my scalp is still itching on day number 2. Have a few scabs, from unintentionally scratching hard. My scape is very irritated and pink. I used Hannah hair dye once maybe three years ago it was a different brand, but I did not experience any side effects. And purchasing this product I couldn’t remember the name of the other brand so I just went with this one. That’s the only reason that I put it in my cart. My hair hadn’t been washed in two days as recommended. When I washed this product off, I was at my mother’s house and I used OlaPlex shampoo and conditiner. I typically use the shampoo and conditioner from L’Oreal pure Vida. So I’m not if that had anything to do with my allergic reaction I highly doubt it, but mentioning just in case. I did apply some heat to it and I want to say I left it for about an hour. The box does recommend 30 minutes however, I saw some YouTube videos that said that you can leave it on a little bit longer so that the color stays longer. Hopefully the irritation goes away soon but I would recommend to do a spot check if you decide to purchase this product.

I’ve repurchased this henna brand several times. I massage it in and don’t look at the clock at all, rather catch up on home multitasking. When I finally remember I have had henna in my hair for several hours, I jump in the shower. I find the longer this product sits on your head the better the color retention. My hair always looks & feels healthy afterwards, and the black color is true. Henna has been a win win for me- checks the boxes.
