Henna Care Instructions:

1. Allow the Henna to Set:

• After the henna application, let it dry completely before touching or moving the design.

• Leave the henna paste on your skin for as long as recommended by your henna artist (usually several hours or overnight).

2. Avoid Water Contact:

• During the setting period, avoid contact with water as much as possible. Water can smudge the henna and affect the final color.

3. Scrape off the Dried Paste:

• Once the henna paste has dried and set, gently scrape it off without using water. You can use a plastic spoon or the edge of a credit card.

4. Avoid Friction:

• Be mindful of activities that may rub or scrape the henna design, especially during the first 24 hours. Friction can interfere with the staining process.

5. Apply a Sealing Solution (Optional):

• Some artists recommend applying a sugar and lemon mixture or a natural oil (such as olive oil) on the dried henna design. This can help keep the henna in place and enhance the color.

6. Moisturize Regularly:

• Moisturize the area with a natural, fragrance-free balm or oil to keep the skin hydrated. Well-moisturized skin tends to retain henna color better.

7. Avoid Harsh Chemicals:

• Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, exfoliants, or chlorine, as they can cause the henna to fade more quickly.

8. Protect from Sunlight:

• Prolonged exposure to sunlight can lighten henna stains. If possible, protect your henna design from direct sunlight or use sunscreen to shield the area.

9. Be Patient:

• The full color of the henna design develops over the next 48 hours. Initially, the stain may appear orange and gradually darkens to a rich brown or burgundy color.

10. Enjoy and Share:

• Once the henna has fully developed its color, enjoy and share your beautiful design. Take care not to scrub the area vigorously when washing to prolong the life of the henna stain.

IMPORTANT: If you have a history of allergies or skin sensitivities, consult with an allergist or dermatologist before using henna. 

Allergy Care:

1. Recognize the Symptoms:

• Common symptoms of a henna allergy may include redness, itching, swelling, rash, or blisters at the application site.

2. Wash Off Immediately:

• If you notice signs of an allergic reaction during the setting period, wash off the henna paste immediately using mild soap and water.

• Use lukewarm water to avoid further irritation.

3. Avoid Scratching:

• While it may be tempting to scratch the affected area, avoid doing so, as scratching can worsen the irritation and potentially lead to infection.

4. Apply a Cold Compress:

• To reduce swelling and soothe the affected area, apply a cold compress or ice pack wrapped in a thin cloth.

• Do not apply ice directly to the skin.

5. Consult a Healthcare Professional:

• If the symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice promptly.
