Let the mixture sit for a good 10 hours or so. This guarantees the color has dye release and will easily stain your skin when you do a henna tattoo.
2. Baggies for Henna. Get some plastic carrot bags from Henna or use regular bags with the closeable top and cut a very small notch in the corner of the bag when you are ready to do your henna tattoo.
