❶ How To Get A Henna Tattoo

Henna tattoos are the "merciful" analogue of standard tattoos. Indeed, when using henna, the skin is not damaged, which means that there is no danger of accidentally infecting, and the process of tattooing itself is not painful. Location: Location: Before starting to paint with henna, the area of ​​skin selected for the tattoo must be thoroughly rinsed and then lightly smeared with oil. You should also remove hair from this place so that it does not spoil the appearance of the tattoo. After performing these manipulations, the paint will last longer and look brighter. There are two ways to apply a picture: using a stencil and transferring a picture. You can apply the paste without the help of templates, but it is very difficult and not always an even pattern is obtained. It's better to use the preview image first.

The stencil can be cut from any paper or purchased. It is fixed on the body, henna is applied to the free area of ​​the template with a layer of 3-4 millimeters. Paint from a tube can be applied with any handy items: a brush, cotton pad or stick. Next, you need to circle the contours of the drawing with henna of a darker color. It is necessary to leave the paint to dry for 1-8 hours (depending on the composition of the henna). During the drying process, the paint should be moistened with oil so that it does not crack.

When the henna is completely solidified, it must be shaken off or gently scraped off, but in no case washed off! To create a tattoo using transfer contours, draw the desired picture on the parchment with a water-soluble felt-tip pen. Next - treat the skin area with a roll-on deodorant. The parchment should be applied to the body with the pattern down. The deodorant will moisten the water-soluble felt-tip pen and the image will be printed on the skin.

Now, according to the picture that appears, henna is applied in the usual way. After drying and removing excess henna paste, the image should be greased with olive, sesame or mustard oil. The tattoo will take on its final shade in one or two days. Until this time, it is advisable not to wet the drawing. The paint stays on the body for 5-14 days. Henna should not be applied to the same place more often than twice a month. The skin should rest.
