Guest Henna Care

Here’s what you need to know about your henna experience before, during, and after the process. I’ve got you covered for a beautiful result!

Before Your Henna

Booking Henna

It is recommended to have your henna applied 2 to 3 days before your event, as henna takes about 48 hours to fully develop its color. 

Skincare

Please ensure you complete your skincare routine and any optional waxing or shaving in the area where henna will be applied, as well as getting your nails done, before your henna appointment.

Day of Henna

 If you wear contact lenses, avoid them during the session, as they can be hard to remove with henna on your hands. Ensure your skin is free of lotion, oils, or moisturizers as henna works best on bare skin for a richer stain.

During the Henna

This can be your time to relax and relieve stress. As your henna artist, I am committed to ensuring you receive the best results.

After Your Henna

The most important part of your henna!!

Avoid Water

To achieve the best results with your henna, avoid washing your hands with water for AT LEAST 24 hours. The longer you can keep them dry, the better the stain will be.  When washing your hands, DO NOT use soap and ONLY rinse with water.​

Henna PAste

I spray lemon-sugar on your henna to have the paste stick to your skin. Leave the paste on for at least 6 hours, (4 hours if in a rush). I recommend leaving it on overnight, if possible. You can scrape off the henna using a butter knife. DO NOT USE WATER TO REMOVE THE PASTE! 

Moisturize

After keeping your henna paste on for at least 6 hours or overnight, you can remove it. Once you have removed the henna paste, make sure to moisturize the area where it was applied. You may use coconut oil or Vicks to moisturize.
