: : Was working with tubes of colored paste very different from using
: : natural henna paste?
: :
: : I was considering experimenting with the tubes of colored paste
and
: : may very well try it this summer since you have had good results.
: : Not that I don’t like natural henna as I will probably be buying a
: : kilo from Navaid’s this summer but that the color skin dyes sound
: : interesting. Did you put the colored paste in bottles or cones
and
: : how did the consistency differ from natural henna paste? Was it
: : runny or thick like clay slip? How long did you leave it on? How
: : thickly did you apply the paste?
: : I always had problems with jaquard bottles clogging when i mix
henna powder, they spit and stop. It is very frustrating to work like
that. The only powder i ever tried that didn't clog in a jaquard
bottle even with a 09mm tip was from the body arts co. in Ojai. The
Navaids pre-mixed natural paste flows nicely not too thick , not too
runny, nice consistency , the dye gives the colour a boost so that it
stains nice and quick without so much after care and takes to places
like shoulders, back etc. Try it yourself and see. Doug
