How henna works for drawing
Ingredients
100 grams of good henna.
Medium lemon juice.
2 tablespoons sugar.
Boiled tea.
Lome grain.
Tablespoon of olive oil.
Tools:
Wooden spoon.
A dark plastic container.
Case Plastsky.
Plastic Roll.
How to prepare
- Bring the henna and put it in the plastic bowl, add sugar, as it works to increase the cohesion of henna and make it last longer.
- Add natural lemon juice, and can be replaced with vinegar or other acid juice because it works to show the color clearly and quickly.
- Mix the henna using a wooden spoon with lemon juice and sugar and note that the paste will be very cohesive.
- Cover the bowl for about 10 minutes until the brown color appears on it.
- In the meantime, bring the tea and loam. This is done by boiling a tablespoon of tea with a loam and half a cup of water. Leave the mixture on low heat for five minutes.
- We prepare the henna paste, add the liquid mixture and knead it with the wooden spoon until the whole ingredients are homogenized.
- Cover henna for 2 to 5 minutes.
- We bring the plastic bag and put two tablespoons of henna in it, press it until it reaches the corner of the bag, and then wrap it in the shape of the cone.
- We make a small hole in the tip to allow a thin line of henna to pass through.
- After henna is drew on the body, leave it for ten minutes to dry out and then remove it by hand or wash with cold water.
Tips for a distinctive henna
- Mix two tablespoons of starch per 100 grams of henna to get the color fast.
- Put a tablespoon of rose water to get a nice smell.
- Mix the henna with a tablespoon of glycerol oil to get a bright metallic color.
- Choose spaced-out patterns to get a pattern, because when henna is removed from the skin, it takes more space than the real size.
- It is preferable not to use henna in the winter on the limbs because it increases joint pain and rheumatism.
