The process of creating henna tattoos is divided into three stages: selection of henna pens, drawing the tattoo and after-care.
* Selection of henna pens: Here are the points to consider while choosing an ideal henna pen.
* Henna pens containing chemical preservatives that can result in skin allergy or irritation. Hence, always select henna pens containing 100% natural ingredients.
* While choosing colours, select pens that contain a high percentage of original henna colour. Designs created with such pens last longer than the ones created by pens with artificial colours.
* Also, select a henna pen with different types of tips. Different types of tips allow varied flow, facilitating the creation of intricate designs.
* Drawing the tattoo: Creating a tattoo design is the most crucial part of making detailed henna tattoos. To begin with,
* Clean your hands with hot water and soap. You can also wipe your palms with cotton balls dipped in astringent, to remove unwanted body oils.
* Select a design which is not too complicated. Beginners must select simple designs, with thick lines. You can draw a henna tattoo directly on your hand or use a stencil or other drawing aid. If your hands shake while drawing a henna tattoo, immediately correct it with the help of a tooth pick.
* After-care: After completing the henna body decoration, follow these tips to get sharp and long lasting tattoos.
* Make a solution of sugar and lemon juice. Dab the henna tattoo with a cotton ball dipped in this solution. Apply another layer of this solution when the initial layer dries up.
