Red Henna Hair Dye

JFR Natural Henna hair coloring is the best hair dye for red hair and is a safe, natural, healthy way to restore your hair's youthful shine, volume, and color!

This red henna hair dye is an all-natural option for coloring your hair without having to use harsh chemicals. It is made from a plant called Lawsonia inermis, which is found in India, Africa, and the Middle East. Our red henna hair dye is available in a variety of shades and can give your hair a tone from a natural Reddish-Copper hue to a soft Strawberry/Champagne Hue. It is also a safe and non-toxic way to color your hair. Natural henna hair coloring for redheads is easy to use, and it can last for several weeks, depending on how often you shampoo your hair. It is also a great way to cover up gray hairs without the use of harsh chemicals.

"After coloring my hair for over 15 years using our JFR Henna, I cannot imagine coloring my hair with anything else! With age my hair has really faded, but JFR Henna has completely restored and revitalized the way my hair looks and feels! I get complements from total strangers, even while standing in the check out line at the grocery store about the color of my hair" -- JFR Founder, Paula Pennypacker

Available in our economy 7oz size.

HENNA INSTRUCTIONS AND QUESTIONS

HOW MUCH WILL I NEED?

Our 7 oz size will give you several applications depending on the length of your hair. For example: You only need 3 oz for shoulder length hair. Use more if hair is longer and less if hair is shorter.

HOW OFTEN DO I APPLY JFR HENNA?

An application will last up to 6 to 8 weeks, depending on how fast your hair grows. Unlike chemical process, you can apply JFR Henna as often as you like as it conditions the hair and is not damaging like chemical dyes.

WILL JFR HENNA LIGHTEN MY HAIR?

No! Only a stripping agent like bleach or peroxide will pull color from your hair. You cannot go from being auburn to strawberry blonde with our henna. Our Henna will only deposit red over your existing color.

DO A STRAND TEST FIRST

We always recommend that you always do a strand test first. This is especially important if you are laying our henna over chemically treated hair as chemically treated hair will grab our Henna differently than virgin hair.

CAN I MIX HENNA SHADES?

We recommend using straight colors before mixing different shades so you can determine what color red each shade turns your hair. Then you can have fun experimenting.

MIXING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1: Pour henna into a non-metallic bowl. Then for extra conditioning you can add up to 1 TBS of olive oil. This step is optional.

STEP 2: Boil 2 cups of water. NOTE: Water that is not BOILING hot will result in a lumpy mixture. When water is hot enough your mixture should be the consistency of honey.

STEP 3: Stirring with your Just for Redheads Applicator Brush gradually add your boiling water until your mixture becomes the consistency of honey. You do not want your mixture to be too watery or thick. To add more depth to any shade of our Henna you can also mix our Henna with BOILING dark roast coffee instead of boiling water.

TIMING YOUR HENNA PACK

We recommend you leave your first henna application on for 20 minutes to avoid over processing. If you wish to go darker, leave the henna pack on longer your next application -- up to 1 hour. NOTE: The longer you leave our Henna on - the more RED is deposited. Lighter hair grabs henna more than darker hair, that is why processing time is critical to avoid over processing.

Ingredients: 100% pulverized leaves from pure Lawsonia plants.

Henna-strawberry blonde

Product: Henna All Natural Hair Color - 100% Safe
Posted By: Kathy

I get compliments on my hair color from everyone who knows me. I’m 65- my childhood copper hair color had faded to a dun color and the strawberry blonde henna restored my natural color! Other hair colors give me a fake pinkish or burgundy or orange tinge. This is wonderful, easy to apply, smells like green tea (no nasty chemical odor), and best of all, restores shine, softness and body. It fades slowly with each shampoo. I usually reapply every 5-6 weeks. Try it-you have nothing to lose and everything to gain

"I came into this world a redhead and vow to go out as one! I have been professionally colored but am now a vowed Just for Redheads home henna user. I have had more compliments on my hair with Just for Redheads Henna than with any hair product I've tried. It looks natural and makes your hair feel SO soft. It lasts for a long time and is easy to use. Best of all, it doesn't break the bank. If you want a color that puts the red in redhead, then try Just for Redheads Henna. I seriously doubt that you will ever return to your normal color treatment."

"I used copper and it brought my hair back to its original color. I watched the online video, and it couldn’t have been easier!"

Grateful for this henna!

Posted by Krista T. on Apr 14, 2023

Discovering this henna has been a game changer for me at 62. It is fantastic to be able to do this for myself, and avoid the hours it was taking at the salon for color that did not last long. And with a little bit of practice it is just an easy thing I know how to do. I love the color - I still get to be a redhead but with a perfectly natural look that I can calibrate myself. I also love the texture that comes with the henna. Thank you so much JFR.

Henna for Redheads

Posted by Laney on Apr 14, 2023

I love the highlights this products gives. I used another 'organic' henna offline and my hair was never the same, the end result didn't have the natural highlights I had know with Just for Redheads. This is slowing bringing those back.

Henna Strawberry Blonde

Posted by Judy Lockhart on Jan 19, 2023

First, let me say that I have never had a special consultation from any company I’ve ever ordered from. Paula is available by text and/or phone promptly to answer all questions. I have never used henna before but was urged by a friend who has used JFR for many years to try it. I am very happy with the results and even made a video demonstrating how I applied it and showing the before and after results. I loved everything about the experience & will certainly continue to use it. Going from dull boring hair to lively red has made me feel 20 years younger. Thank you Paula & JFR.

Henna hair color

Posted by Annette on Dec 16, 2022

Color is beautiful, product was very difficult to get to a 'honey' stage for application. Kiinda messy to apply and I had a hard time getting it rinsed out. I would use again because it is natural, hair feels great. Hopefully ease comes with more experience.

Create Your Own Customizable Henna Formula

Posted by Shona Gorham on Dec 08, 2022

I just recently began using Henna to address my hair coloring needs. My sister had been using this brand for a number of years and recommended it to me. My hair is a darker auburn, and I struggled to find a good color match to the root area using a single color. Paula was extremely responsive to all my questions. She offered support, and guidance as I sent her photos of my attempts. My last attempt proved to be very close to what I am seeking so I feel that as I continue to tweak my formula using a combination of Auburn, Red and Copper I will determine the best combination for my specific hair. I like the fact I can do this myself, and that I can adjust the color formula to address my needs.

Henna

Posted by Ann f on Sep 14, 2022

Never EVER use another brand! It's color remains consistent through the years I've used it. My stylist absolutely loves the way it improves my very fine 60+ hair. Don't ever want to use any other henna. Ever.

Champagne henna

Posted by Joan on Jun 08, 2022

I have used this product for years. It gives me a natural shade that I want if I leave it on for 25 minutes. I have short hair so one bag lasts me for a long time, at least three months.
