It is generally not recommended that you place henna on your scalp as it will dye the skin too (remember the artistic henna done on hands). However as this article states Indian women have been using henna for a very long time for hair and skin without serious adverse effects.Jchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03983132094574128087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-45430001831048482792011-08-23T23:04:49.822+01:002011-08-23T23:04:49.822+01:00Please forgive me for being slow JC.

Following on from Lola's question, if henna makes contact with the scalp - say during a prolonged henna treatment, is there a risk of cell mutation then? Considering the cells on the scalp are still alive this would seem to make sense. I am considering using henna for the first time and would really appreciate your views on this.Nnesomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356365023823603303.post-13967467461607710462011-06-04T22:51:12.117+01:002011-06-04T22:51:12.117+01:00Misha - Body art quality is 100% pure henna with n...Misha - Body art quality is 100% pure henna with no additives. <br /><br />Lola - Hair outside the follicle is 'dead'.
