How to Use
For body art: Mix henna powder with lemon juice or water to form a smooth paste. Apply to skin using a cone or brush, leave for 2-4 hours, then gently remove. The stain develops over 24-48 hours.
For hair dye: Mix with warm water to create a yoghurt-like consistency. Apply to clean, dry hair from roots to tips. Cover with a shower cap and leave for 1-3 hours depending on desired intensity. Rinse thoroughly.
For conditioning treatment: Mix a small amount with your favourite hair oil or yoghurt. Apply to hair, leave for 30-60 minutes, then rinse well.
