It looks like a Japanese watercolor painting. But does the henna stain stay on the hand after washing? Does it eventually wear off? Whose hand is in the picture?
Hey Julie. That artist did a good job with the designs.
In answer to questions in this and the last post:
Henna eventually wears off as the skin cells die off and new skin cells are formed. This process may take a while and so the designs should hold for a while.
From what I've heard from others or seen from the internet, the process should/can be expedited by using salt water or chlorinated water. Some other various techniques that people have used include: rubbing olive oil/hair conditioner over the henna stain.
*Note* I have never had a henna stain and the expedited removal processes may or may not be true.
Thanks Jerry! Great research! The hand in the picture belongs to my friend's daughter that I am staying with in Red Deer. I'm not sure whether to disclose more about her. As many greatly talented people are, she tends to be more private. She reads this blog and so she may tell you or she may not, we will see.
Sorry, Julianne...I forgot to send you the finished photo of my foot last week (it wasn't great anyway, so I'm rather embarassed).....if you send me your email address, I can email you photos of the hands and feet of a woman who I did henna on yesterday. I'll let you know when I'm in Red Deer next and I can bring all my henna stuff. I'm not THAT private!!....I need to practice and that's the only way I'll get faster, so if there's anyone else who might be interested in getting henna done, let me know. Maybe we can do a henna party!
Awesome! Okay guys that's Erin. She's our henna hook-up! It sounds like she will let you come experience henna with her as well as me. And I got the pictures she is referring to! Very nice. In fact, it sounds like she's okay if I show them to you. Okay Erin?

Who wants it done on their hands or feet now?
