Do’s and Don’ts for Organic Henna

✅ Do’s for Organic Henna

1. Prep your skin properly – Wash hands/skin with mild soap and dry well before applying henna.
2. Apply sugar-lemon syrup – Dab gently after the paste dries to keep the design moist and dark.
3. Keep it warm – Henna stains develop better in warm conditions.
4. Leave paste on for long – At least 4–6 hours (overnight if possible) for a rich stain.
5. Scrape, don’t wash – Remove dried paste by scraping, not washing with water.
6. Use natural oils – Apply clove oil, coconut oil, or eucalyptus oil after removing paste to seal and deepen the stain.
7. Be patient – Henna stains take 24–48 hours to fully darken.

❌ Don’ts for Organic Henna

1. Don’t use water immediately – Avoid contact with water for 12–24 hours after removing paste.
2. Don’t apply lotions/creams before henna – They create a barrier and weaken the stain.
3. Don’t blow-dry or force-dry – Let the henna dry naturally for best results.
4. Don’t peel off early – Removing paste too soon will result in a lighter stain.
5. Don’t use chemical cones – Stick to pure, organic henna for safe and natural results.
6. Don’t expose to harsh cleaning agents – Detergents, hand wash, or sanitizers fade the stain faster.
