Yes. Absolutely. As long as you’re using all natural henna and henna-herbal products, you won’t have any problems. Problems can occur when nasty additives are placed into a poor quality henna powder (Metallic Salts) and they may react with the chemicals in the synthetic dyes (Ammonia).
Quick Answer, does henna remove hair dye? Once the hair has been colored with henna, it is virtually impossible to remove the dye from hair. The dye is permanent and may fade very slightly through washes but generally has to be grown out. The hair, however, can be lightened and brightened.
As many you asked, what happens if you put henna on bleached hair? Resist the urge to immediately bleach hair that has been coloured with henna, as bleach opens the cuticles of the hair and forces the colour deeper inside. You should wait until there is a noticeable fading of the henna on your hair before you try to lighten it and always conduct a strand test to check the final shade.
Furthermore, does henna turn gray hair orange? Generally henna will be much more brassy/orange when you put it on its own directly on to white or very light grey or light blonde hair. If you put it onto light brown or brown hair it is much less red/orange; the darker brown your hair is the less red/orange it will be.
