: I've tried cutting a small hole in a carrot bag and then putting a
: Jacquard tip *inside* the carrot bag before the henna goes in. With
: just the metal tip sticking out at the end, you can tape it in
place
: from the outside and it works fairly well. Downsides were that some
: henna will ooze out the corners if the tip doesnt stay in place,
and
: you still have to deal with picking out clogs in your tips if they
: occur. Getting the tip out of the bag can't be done easily until
the
: henna is gone, another down side.
:
: I still favor the j-bottle, but havent experimented a whole lot yet
: with the carrot bag approach (either with or without the tips).
:
: It's funny to hear everyone talking about hennaeing being like cake
: decorating -- that was EXACTLY my thought when I was trying the
: carrot bag for the first time and the henna was that eliptical
shape
: that stood up on the skin, "This looks and acts like cake frosting."
