: Hi All:
: I have a question please for anyone that can give a good answer.
If
: you are applying henna to clients one after the other....do you
make
: the client sit and wait till the henna dries and then dab
sugar/lemon
: and then wrap it for them...or do you let clients leave with paste
: still wet? Basically HOW do you prevent clients spoiling your
designs
: by wearing there clothes or smearing the design while getting
home????
We dont use any wrap/sealant.
Smudging can be a problem....but we deal with it....they have to get
in ask quick as possible and we do a repair job...even it is removal
fully of the paste and re-application. Generally as a rule we dont
charge more for this this is due to most being children.
Now depending on where it is you can create a cardboard
frame....cellotape it around the design to the skin if you do this
right you can then carefully place the design over the skin.....this
is hard to explain without examples...but you basically tear the
card a little bit creating flaps that you can cellotape....you can
then adjust the card to fit around the design.
That only work for certain places though and depends on the clothing
they are wearing. If its too tight then it wont work. the clothes
will crush the cardboard.
Basically they have to keep it uncovered....during cold times we
have 3 heaters and make the place looks like a nice cushy sauna!
