: : Hi just a note incase if any one is interested.... i picked up a : : thermafax machine and i can print up any paper stencil that fits on a : : 8x10 sheet of paper. With the paper stencils you cannot use them the : : same way as a tattoo artist uses them. a tattoo artist uses deoderant : : and that wont work for henna,.... but Eucaluptus oil does:-). what : : you do is clean the skin , smear on some eucaluptus oil on and wipe : : off excess , but leave enough on so skin is kind of shiney. then : : place the stencil...the purple carbon will leave a light purple mark : : to follow ( and saves lots of time). this is excellent for symetrical : : and celtic designs. And the purple part does not affect the design i : : tested it. I had a spot with the stencil, and one with out, and one : : spot using rubbing alcohol and the stencil(using the alcohol worked : : but the design was lighter). the thremafax paper stencils work great : : with the colored hennas too. The colored henna i carry tends to : : leave a stain even if on the skin for a second, but following the : : stencils helps eliminate any mistakes(the colored henna i carry is : : safe so it only lasts 3-7 days depending on skintype and : : climate).Also I got 3 uses out of the stencil. So if you want make up : : an 8x10 sheet of whatever designs you want (Catherine C. Jones Has : : some real beautiful patterns if you need some ideas) send it with a : : SASE (self adressed stamped envelop) with $3 for first sheet $2 each : : additional to : : Castle Art & Import : : 1525 S. Webster Ave : : Green BAy WI : : 54301 : : or if your just want to try the stecils out and have no specific : : desighn ideas ...just send SASE to above address with $1 handling fee : : and i will send a sample sheet for you to try. : : thanks : : Amy :-) : : ps this posting is just meant to notify every one that i have this : : service availble if i have offended any one i appologize : The Thermafax ROCKS !! I'm really fortunate to be doing henna out of my boyfriend's tattoo : studio and they let me use theirs for my stencils. If you have any access to Green Soap (a typical : tattoo soap that can be bought from any tattoo or medical supply company) it works wonders : when putting the stencil on skin. MUCH better that rubbing alcohol or water. And use a spray bottle !
