It is only recently (the first artificial dye was invented in 1857) that the textile industry has turned to synthetic dyes. Today, many craftspeople are rediscovering the joy of achieving colour through the use of renewable, non-toxic, natural sources. Natural dyes are inviting and satisfying to use. Most are familiar substances that will spark creative ideas and widen your view of the world. Try experimenting. Colour can be coaxed from many different sources. Once the cloth or fibre is prepared for dyeing it will soak up the colour, yielding a range of results from deep jew- el-like tones to dusky heathers and pastels.

  • What Is "Black Henna?" Catherine Cartwright-Jones C 2003
    1 2 What is "Black Henna?" Catherine Cartwright-Jones c 2003 Henna is NOT black. However, there are several things marketed as "Black Henna", and some things believed to be "Black Henna". Some are very dangerous. Some are harmless. When para- phenylenediamine black hair dye is used to make black temporary tattoos, often called “black henna”, it can cause blistering, open sores, scarring, and life-ling health problems. PPD “black henna”, two weeks after application, with intense itching and open sores 1) Some people make a black temporary tattoo they call "Black Henna" with synthetic black hair dye, containing para- phenylendiamine. This is NOT HENNA! Black hair dye should never be put straight on your skin, plain, or mixed with other material. Synthetic Black Hair Dye is illegal to put on skin, because that is not approved use. Even when this dye is applied to hair, people must wear gloves, and they try to not get it on the scalp! PPD, para-phenylendiamine can seriously 3 injure people. Para-phenylenediamine is a strong sensitizer, transdermal toxin and potential carcinogen. 2) "Black Henna" was once a term for indigo, when it was sold as hair dye. In the 1800's there was no synthetic hair dye. Henna and indigo were used to dye hair. Henna leaves and twigs that had no, or very low, concentrations of Lawsone (the tannin produced by the henna plant) were sold as neutral henna. Henna leaf buds that had high concentrations of Lawsone were sold as Red Henna or Henna. Indigo was marketed as "black henna".

  • Microscopy of Henna the Microscopic Structures of A
    Chapter 4: Science and Microscopy: Microscopy of Henna The microscopic structures of a henna leaf This is a quantitative microscopy survey of different brands of henna hair dye products. Henna products in the marketplace frequently contain unlisted additives and adulterants, and the milling and sifting varies with particles from 0.2 mm to over 3 mm. Consumers become frustrated by henna products’ coarse sift, sand, problematic interactions with chemical dyes, and unpredictable, fading results. The public understanding of what is henna is further misinformed by false advertising claims made by by exporters and retailers. Investigation into henna’s agricultural, industrial, and marketing processes was part of my Master’s and PhD dissertations, in contrast to the usual anthropological and folkloric investigations on henna. Through that research, I amassed years of henna, indigo and cassia analysis from a certified independent laboratory, over one hundred henna hair dye products, and declarations by henna exporters. This chapter shows quantitative microscopic comparisons of products sold as ‘henna.’ The above image is are macroscopic view of the ventral side of a 38 mm long henna leaf, 1.5 inches, with the midrib, vein, and lamina indicated.1 The above image shows the dorsal side of four paired young henna leaves; the larger leaves are 20 mm (about 0.8”) long. The above images are scanned, so show natural color from reflected light.2 1 Henna plants raised by Catherine Cartwright-Jones PhD 2 Epson Perfection V600 Photo scanner 1200 DPI “Ancient Sunrise® Henna for Hair,” Chapter 4: Science and Microscopy Part 3, Microscopy of Henna.

  • Extra Dark Henna Color
    How to Get the Darkest Color Henna Tattoos by Jody of ShopBeachcombers.com Everyone wants super dark color from their henna tattoos. I want to help you achieve this, but keep in mind henna isn't all about color. It's about connecting (with others or just yourself) and contributing to a positive energy within and around us. Henna can be as powerful as you let it! Back to dark color henna! There are many factors that contribute to the color you ultimately get from your henna. I’m going to address most of them here. 1. The Henna Product Itself Mixing your own henna from powder is capable of giving you the darkest longest lasting color. Use a high quality powder such as our ORa Organic Raj henna, Ibis Henna, Lume, or Jamila henna and the Beachcombers Super Simple henna recipe. ~ Recipe Below ~ 2. What Part of the Body You Henna Henna takes best on the palms of the hands and the soles of the feet. The further away from the feet and hands you get, the lighter the stain. The thinner the skin, the fewer layers of skin cells there are for the henna to stain, therefore you get a lighter stain. That's okay, you can still do henna on the back or even the face, just know that it will be much lighter and not last as long. 3. The Skin Itself Henna takes best to clean dry skin. Lotions, sunblock, or even water will be a barrier between the henna and the skin. Self tanner can be exceptionally difficult for henna to bond with.

  • Appendix 1 Vernacular Names
    Appendix 1 Vernacular Names The vernacular names listed below have been collected from the literature. Few have phonetic spellings. Spelling is not helped by the difficulties of transcribing unwritten languages into European syllables and Roman script. Some languages have several names for the same species. Further complications arise from the various dialects and corruptions within a language, and use of names borrowed from other languages. Where the people are bilingual the person recording the name may fail to check which language it comes from. For example, in northern Sahel where Arabic is the lingua franca, the recorded names, supposedly Arabic, include a number from local languages. Sometimes the same name may be used for several species. For example, kiri is the Susu name for both Adansonia digitata and Drypetes afzelii. There is nothing unusual about such complications. For example, Grigson (1955) cites 52 English synonyms for the common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) in the British Isles, and also mentions several examples of the same vernacular name applying to different species. Even Theophrastus in c. 300 BC complained that there were three plants called strykhnos, which were edible, soporific or hallucinogenic (Hort 1916). Languages and history are linked and it is hoped that understanding how lan- guages spread will lead to the discovery of the historical origins of some of the vernacular names for the baobab. The classification followed here is that of Gordon (2005) updated and edited by Blench (2005, personal communication). Alternative family names are shown in square brackets, dialects in parenthesis. Superscript Arabic numbers refer to references to the vernacular names; Roman numbers refer to further information in Section 4.

  • Extraction of Henna Leaf Dye and Its Dyeing Effects on Textile Fibre
    Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res. 42(2), 217-222, 2007 Extraction of Henna Leaf Dye and its Dyeing Effects on Textile Fibre M. M Alam, M. L. Rahman and M. Z. Haque BCSIR Laboratories, Rajshahi-6206, Bangladesh Abstracts Henna plant leaves (Lawsonia inermis) contains dye along with other ingredients. The dye component was extracted and applied on silk fibre in order to investigate the dyeing characteristics, e.g. dyeability, fastness etc. It is found that the dye up take by silk fibre was decreased with the increase of dye concentration. Similarly the absorp- tion of dye was increased with the decrease of dye concentration. The maximum dye absorption has been observed at 0.9 % dye with 10 % alum for the period of 65 min- utes at temperature 80O C and pH 4. At this optimum condition the dye absorption was 93 %. The effects of sunlight in air on silk fibre have been studied to investigate the colourfastness. The colourfastness of dyed silk fibre of water and soap solution at different treatment temperature was satisfactory. Considering dyeability and colour- fastness, dye from henna matured leaves was highly applicable on dyeing of silk fibre as well as other protein fibre.
