I agree with Catherine! When I first began to use the bottles, I was
really having MAJOR problems with clogs. The henna looked nice and
powder fine and still clogged. I now sift twice thru the Dairy Queen
homemade sifter and now I almost NEVER get a clog. I also find using
the little bottles easier to use and you have excellent control with
them. I use the Jacuard bottles with the #5 and #7 tips. I tried to
use cones a couple of times and decided I like the bottles better.
Try with well sifted henna and decide for yourself. Oh, and happy
hennaing!!
