Carrot bags!!! I use them to fill my j-bottles, just cut a larger-
than-normal opening and whoosh! It's easy! You can also use
pastry/frosting bags (I got a super-cheap one that has a long narrow
tip that fits right in the bottle!) or even ziplock baggies (put all
the paste into one corner, then snip the corner and squeeze) but it's
hard to find ones that have "normal" corners and aren't pleated. You
could also roll a cone out of plastic to fill the j-bottle, just cut
a big tip so you get more henna "flow."
