Henna your Hair!

Ancient SunriseŽ are body art quality hennas and other dye plants that have been tested by an independent laboratory for dye content, lead, pesticides, and adulterants.  Body art quality henna is far better quality henna than is usually sold for hair, so you'll get much better results!  Body art quality is 100% pure henna, finely sifted, with no metallic salts, no added dyes,  and no "mystery meat".

We have many Body Art Quality Hennas: they are all slightly different.  One is perfect for you!
