It's down in the car (you would think I'd learn to bring my stuff up
with me, but no...) but I think the one I liked was the size 0 with
the narrow cone. It was about the size of a .7 Jacuard tip, if not a
bit smaller. There was one I liked better because the hole was
smaller, but the cone was too wide to fit in the carrot bag or the
pastry bag. If I could get the smaller hole in the narrower cone,
that would be ideal. Do they have that? I'd like to have two of
each if possible.
I'm waiting to see your henna results. i hope you love it as much as
I do!
