Now i know that there are some people who should not use henna if they are g6pd deficient, have naphthalene allergies, etc. but my question is what if someone has anemia, or allergies to aspirin, quinine, or NSAID not related to these disorders. would it be ok then to henna these people. also, if a person have liver problems and gets jaundiced once in awhile should i refrain from hennaing them? if anyone knows i would appreciate your input. I wanted something for my clients to sign acknowledging the don't have any of the above disorders but i am afraid of scaring off people. i do however always ask if they are allergic to citrus or lavender, as it is the only oil i use just to be safe.

Hannan,
I don't think you should have any problems hennaing people generally.
If they don't have the G6PD allergy, everything is fine.
Asking about the oils sensitivity is a good question to ask people and I wouldn't bother with having them sign anything because legally you can't sign away your rights.
(my husband is a lawyer)

So just checking if they have the deficiency or oil sensitivity will be more than enough.
Happy hennaing
Flavia

since henna is a natural organically grown vegetable that you put on the hair, it doesn't cause hair fallout.
If you make a thick paste and apply it to the hair and let it dry solid there is a possibility that when it dries it is pulling out hair,but that would be noticeably painful.
Henna can not make more hair grow, nor does it make hair fall out .
Natural Henna also has an amazingly low incidence of allergic reactions.
It would be more of topical skin reaction than hair loss. YOu could test on hairy arms or legs to see if this is really what is causing hair loss if you think it is the culprit.

i would mix the henna with water or cooled chamomile tea so the mix isn't drying like it can be if you mix with lemon juice or vinegar or even orange juice.
After rinsing out the hair coloring you can try a coconut oil treatment on the hair to help it . Coconut oil is inexpensive and smells great and works really well for hair conditioning .
