  • Natural henna will start off orange and deepen color over 48 hours
  • Be sure to clean the skin before applying henna
  • Let the henna paste soak on the skin for 4-8 hours
  • Seal with medical tape or Aftercare Citrus Sealant for best results
  • To remove paste, gently flake off, if sticky use coconut or vegetable oil, not water to remove residue
