I've used henna since many years and I've found out several things that can be good to know when you are going to apply it. So I thought I would share my knowledge with all other interested...

• If you use the powder (instead of henna in tube) you should add about 1 table spoon oil into it. The oil will give the colour a wonderful shine. If you can  get yasmin oil, use that. Other ways usual cooking oil will also be fine.
• Apply the henna about one hour before you go to sleep. It will dry and fall off by itself, but don't wash the hand! Wait until next morning and the amazing colour will suprise you... the longer you wait wih washing your hand, the better colour...
