Just got your henna done?
Not sure how to take care of it to get the best possible stain?

- Keep the henna paste on for a minimum of 4 hours – the longer the better.
- Avoid sweating, exercise, and any contact with water to the henna during this time
- After 4+ hours, peel and scrape off the dried paste. Do not use water to take it off – if it’s not coming off, you may use coconut, mustard, or another body oil to help soften and remove the paste
- Once removed, the stain will be very light – do not panic! Natural henna takes 24-48 hours to fully darken
- During the first 24-48 hours, avoid contact with water, exercise, or other activities that may cause the area to sweat
- Your stain has now fully darkened! Feel free to use water, exercise, and do anything you normally would as you enjoy the stain for the next 1-2 weeks.
- Snap a photo of your final stain and send it in to
