My wife told me a few years ago she wasn't fond of the grey and that I should do something about it. I fought it for a few weeks but eventually caved in. Although I tried several 'Semi-Permanent' hair dyes, right away it was apparent to me that the Reshma not only lasted like a permanent dye, it aged the best - it held its shade perfectly until it was time to do the roots again because the dreaded grey was showing. I've been a fan ever since, and intend to keep using Reshma Henna and recommend it highly.
