RED HENNA / MEHENDI Designs



Red Henna designs as showcased by my model. Thanks Joanne! :) Henna or Mehendi used to be requested for Bollywood Parties & weddings, but now it is frequently requested for Roadshows, at Concerts, Family Days/Carnivals, Annual Dinners & Henna Tattoo Parties.
Henna is left to stain the skin for about 30 minutes to 1 hour. If it is left on longer, the colour stays & endures. However, many want to take it off as it also drops off when it starts to dry(much like our mud masks which will start to crack & drop off). After 1 hour, scrape it off with DRY tissue. AVOID water for 4 hours if possible.

Also, if Henna is drawn on the palms, the Henna colour will be a deeper red as heat is trapped in our palms.
