: I use a VERY fine, metal mesh strainer purchased from a gourmet store. I sifted before mixing and after I mixed my paste, because I wanted even finer designs. I put the metal strainer over a small metal bowl and placed a couple of tablespoons of henna in it. Then, lightly tapped the side of the strainer. There were quite a few things (bumps, leaf bits, clumps, ???!) left in the strainer when I was done. Next time I may try sifting twice before mixing to see what happens! It was pretty messy sifting after mixing the paste! (Although it did make a difference!) Good luck!

thanks for the advice. i did try to strain it with pantyhose (Another person's advice from the web) and it got a lot smoother. i was still having trouble though with how to dispense it and i ended up just using a toothpick. what do you use?

thanks again.
