Here is a photo of a henna tattoo (paste is on the skin - not black henna) for the active woman. You will see that there is a lacy henna pattern on the palm, rather whimsical, yet incorporating traditional components. However, the fingers and thumbs are free of henna paste, so work can continue for the three to six hours necessary to get the darkest henna color. The palm will always show the true beauty of henna.. yielding colors ranging from rose, to red.. and in some cases, with good aftercare, black cherry red. To ensure the darkest color, leave the paste on the skin as long as possible. It is also good to enjoy the outdoors! Heat is good for henna, water is not. If you want your henna color to last as long as possible, no matter where you put it... the once you remove the paste, cover the design with olive oil to seal in the color & some body heat. If you must wash anything.. please remember .. a bit of olive oil over the henna tattoo keeps water out and color in. For more info...

Here is a photo of a quick henna pattern for the back of the hand. While the darkest color is achieved when applying henna tattoo to the palm, most customers find it very difficult to go about daily activities with a henna tattoo on the palm of the hand. As well.. it is easy show off your new design! Surprisingly, we seldom show our palms to the public. This photo is a picture of henna paste on the skin & NOT black henna. This paste will remain on the skin for several hours and once scraped off, will leave a stain that darkens over the next 48 hours. The better care you take of your henna, the longer the tattoo will last. For more info on henna tattoo aftercare, please see the FAQ page.
