If you want to have a temporary tattoo, but unfortunately you do not have free time to go to the salon or you have a good background in the artist, then you can make a henna tattoo at home. Applying a tattoo with henna is a very simple procedure. But to get a tattoo neat, beautiful and with a minimum of flaws, it is necessary to comply with all the recommendations. The most important point is the preparation of the coloring mixture.

Preparation of the tattoo

The most important component is henna. The following components are lemon juice, preferably from 2 lemons, as well as cosmetic oil with fragrances (you can choose the flavor according to your preferences).

henna powder
First, you need to sift the powder, it is necessary to ensure that the coloring composition turned out without lumps. Then measure 30 grams of henna coloring powder and add a quarter cup of lemon juice to it. The resulting mass must be packaged in a bag and put for 12 hours in a warm place. After 12 hours, add a teaspoon of sugar to it in order to prevent it from spreading. After you can drip the aromatic oil, it is necessary for greater color stability. If you want a mixture of a darker color, you can add a bit of basma. Stir the mass to a creamy state. Having done all the manipulations again leave her alone for 12 hours. After 12 hours, it is ready to use. The color of the applied tattoo appears a few days later, acquiring a beautiful brown tint. In the days of color development, try to avoid contact with water in the place of the picture.

If you do not have the ability to draw, then a stencil or interesting inscriptions for tattoos can help you. The area on which you are planning to apply the pattern must be degreased. If you have caused some detail of the picture not carefully, then it is necessary to correct it immediately, since henna is absorbed in a matter of seconds. You can remove the defects with a cloth moistened with water or cotton wool. When choosing a picture with small details, you can use a toothpick to improve the drawing, but if you chose a drawing without small details, you can apply patterns using a syringe with a broken needle tip.

If you want to get a bright shade of a tattoo, then the henna layer should be thin. When you are done with the drawing pattern, you will need to fix it. For this you need hairspray. Splash lightly on the drawing and leave overnight. The remaining excess pasta can be removed, dipped in lemon juice with cotton wool. To extend the durability and color of the tattoo, apply cosmetic or vegetable oil on it.
