Why dye it at all?
I personally love natural hair.

You are obviously not grey yet, Andy!

Well, actually I had grey hair... and I even have some...
Regarding dying hair, my girlfriend uses henna to strengthen and color the hair. I remember my mother also used henna. Once in 2 weeks I think.. or even 2 months I don't remember but it wasn't too often.

Where does your girlfriend buy Henna? And do they have a mail order site?! I used to use it (my hair was bright red! ) but I haven't seen any for sale in a long time... The Body Shop seem to have stopped selling it since they were taken over by L'Oreal

I bleached my hair last year (hence the 'Cornish Blonde' avatar ) and it went really horrible and dry It's dark and very long again now

I was always told to leave six weeks between colouring, I think that's the longest you can go without your roots showing But you also need to use a harsh shampoo (to remove colour residue, which can build up) and then an intensive conditioner... There is a strong arguement for just shaving your head

We have an open market here something like a bazaar, there are lots of things there. But henna is quite common here i believe.

If you are really interested in buying henna her is what I found

Ooh! thanks The person in the review got her Henna from Lush, and there happens to be a branch of Lush in a nearby town! I had no idea Lush sold henna - they keep a few blocks on a high shelf, right at the back of the shop They also mail order now

The problem with our current [superficial] economic prosperity, is that markets have declined Certainly in this area - there's always good markets in London, and the north of the country
