Can I perm hair that has been dyed with henna?
by Jane
I have medium hair and allergic to hair dye and I use henna as alternative to hair color. I am desperately searching for a way to color my gray and also have a perm. Can I perm hair that has been dyed with henna? I can use Loving Care color rinse, but it turns my gray hair purple! I have very dark brown hair naturally.

I do not recommended perm on any vegetable based color
by: JoyI do not recommend that and other stylists will probably say the same. Since Henna is vegetable based, no chemical processes will be compatible.
This is probably why the color rinse you had done on your hair had a negative effect, as well.
Just remember a simple rule: Chemical based and vegetable based products are not "always" compatible so don't risk it!
Hope this was helpful.
