I always recommend keeping the paste on for at least 8 to 10 hours and avoiding water contact for the first 24 hours to really lock in that rich, dark colour. I believe in transparency because what you put on your skin matters. I mix my own henna paste using only natural ingredients, avoiding the synthetic dyes and chemicals found in store-bought cones. This not only ensures your skin stays safe but also produces that deep, authentic maroon stain that develops over 48 hours. ### The Application Process My approach is meticulous. Whether it is a bridal session or a smaller event, I treat every design as a custom piece of art. For bridal bookings, I start by finalizing reference images, ensuring we have enough time to include personal touches like initials, portraits, or specific symbols. The application takes anywhere from 2 to 6 hours depending on the density and coverage you choose, from mid-forearm engagement designs to full bicep-length bridal coverage. ### Achieving the Best Stain - **Pre-Application:** Exfoliate your skin a day before and avoid heavy lotions or oils on the day of the application so the henna can absorb properly. - **During Application:** I apply a lemon-sugar sealant once the paste is dry to keep it in place longer, which helps the stain penetrate deeper. - **Post-Application:** Once you scrape the dried henna off, keep your hands warm and avoid contact with water for at least one full day. The stain will naturally darken from orange to a rich reddish-brown over two days. If you have a design in mind or want to know if your wedding date is open, just send me a message. I am based in Bengaluru and travel across the city for bookings. ## About Bharathi I am Bharathi.
