Re: why is this new? (praises to Jeremy+catherine)Posted by mark on July 2, 2001 at 10:25:27: In reply to: why is this new? (praises to Jeremy) posted by Catherine Cartwright Jones on July 2, 2001 at 00:39:48: :: : How come we are just hearing about this now? : : Because ... either someone knew and kept it a company secret : (likely) : : ... OR ...... : : nobody knew before .. in which case, : : I'm the first person to be so totally consumed and curious about henna : to persist and figure it out.... and Jeremy's Forum gave me the means. : : ( I doubt if I'm the first person to figure it out, but I've never : seen this information written ANYWHERE, so I had to figure it out : myself ... so it is certainly new to me!) : : : People on the Forum and and off have generously helped me by telling : me a bit of this and that about chemistry until I was able to put : things together. I've been researching every aspect of henna for over : a decade, and it takes up ALL my time now! : Dozens of people have each given me a tiny scrap of info on this to : make it possible to figure this out. (and I DON'T have it all figured : out yet) : : ... so ... : : it DOES seem that I'm the FIRST person to make this information : freely available each step of the way to EVERYONE. : : Why didn't I keep it all secret and create a new profitable industry : for myself? Because I wouldn't be doing a service to the greater good : of henna ... I'd only be serving myself. And, that'd be no damn fun : at all. And, anyway, wouldn't it be awfully sucky if I used Jeremy's : free forum space, and everybody's help just to put money in my own : pocket? Eeeeeuuuuuu. Oh the art of intense studying and the results that it brings along...i basically believe that no-one has gone into it this much to find out....for all my henna years clove oil was always recommended to me due to its properties making the henna darker....however no-one knew what these properties where!....kinda magik of clove oil thingy going on....no real research into why. it was a matter of time before someone would find the info to get their teeth into it....catherine this is most definetely you! off to the shop now to get some more ravensara and some caj!
