I tried the facial mask to seal down henna on a group of 8 students
... some of them really had a lot of trouble with the masks going
into wads, lifting off at the edges, and I've seen the same sort of
difficulties with liquid latex. It's not the fault of the latex or
the mask (which really do work wonderfully, and are ideal for many
hennaes!) ...there's just a lot of people who really can't get the
hang of keeping their henna nice and untouched for the duration!
People who are young, restless or generally don't keep track of what
their body is doing have the worst problems. (I.E. they swat at a
bug, jump into a bath, put on their shoes and go jogging....one
decided to go straight to the gym and work out after being hennaed and
masked) I really don't know how to impress upon people enough that
the henna has to stay in place, and they have to participate in
keeping it there! That's a tough one, because if they have a henna
disaster because they didn't take good care of the pattern, they will
usually blame henna, or blame me for a bad job... That's one of the
reasons I stick to NS...it's damn near indestructible.
