How to Care for Your Henna Body Art Tattoo for Dark Stains - Henna Sooq

Wouldn’t you love to get a rich reddish brown stain that lasts 10-14 days? It's even possible to get a stain as dark as black cherry. Using fresh body art quality henna powder is the first part in getting the darkest, long lasting stains. Always choose the best which you’ll find at www.HennaSooq.com.

How do you ensure the darkest stain results for your henna body art? 

Taking care of your henna design and stain is also very important to getting a dark stain and ensuring the design lasts longer. Following these simple steps:

1. Once your design is dry spray or dab with lemon and sugar mixture (you can also use our Moroccan Rose Water). Allow to dry.

2. Wrap you design in toilet paper or our Hypafix tape. We don't recommend you use plastic cling or bags as this could cause sweating, which then leads to your design bleeding and getting smudged. It'll look terrible!

3. Keep the henna design warm. At Henna Sooq's Retail + Salon in Columbia, Maryland, we use stand up heaters to ensure the designs dry and get really dark. Henna loves heat!

4. Keep the design on the skin overnight or for at least 3-4 hours. This will give you the best results.

5. Remove the henna paste by either scrapping it off gently (the hypafix will also remove most of the design for you, as you peel it off the henna). If it’s a little sticky or not all removed, use a little water. 

6. Moisturize your henna body art design with our Henna After Care Balm. The better you take care of your skin, the better the design's color will be. Make sure you moisturize often throughout the day and before and after showers or washing your hands.

7. Avoid contact with or minimal use of water for 8 to 24 hours to ensure a beautiful stain on the area where the design is.

Note: Your design will appear light in color at first (an orange tone). It takes 24-48 hour to darken. So don't worry when the design seems light at first as this is very normal. 

Just look at how gorgeous this henna came out below!
