You're really good at it! ^^ Been a long time since I played with it.

Thank you sisters!

mistika - you should definitely try it. the first time i did it was awful. i found this henna kit online shopbeachcombers.com and it comes with transfer paper so you can stencil in a design and sorta trace the henna over the stencil.

mina - yeah i think hte actual paste looks so much nicer than the stain unless you get a really deep red, almost black stain. I saw pics of this sister who had henna done for her wedding and it came out almost black after she scraped the paste off. it was gorgeous!

hajar - thank you! i can't wait until this fades so i can experiment some more. maybe i can find some family members or friends who are willing to be my test dummies lol
