I think you will get a more dramatic result by using the straight dope in the henna powder and then followed by indigo. You may be able to get less tangles if you can mix your henna with more oils...

I did this, it did not last long. First I applied henna let it sit and rinsed then I applied indigo. It dyed my hair jet black but for some reason it was not permanent.

I am not sure if I will do it again. It was fun to play around in the goop but it made my hair sticky and straw like for a couple of days:look:
