Does this work for mixing henna tattoo paste?

We have used it several times for henna tattoos and for hair coloring. It is very gritty and immediately clogs even the larger henna tattoo needles so it definitely must be sifted first before mixing your paste. We just use old panty hose by placing some henna in the foot area, placing that in a jar and screw the lid on so the henna is suspended in the middle of the jar. Then we get to shaking the jar, and shaking, an more shaking. After a good 20 minutes we have several tablespoons of henna that is like baby powder.

This product is not a fine grind. It does works well for hair. It will clog henna cone, it needs to be put it in a coffee grinder or mortar and pestal.

I would think so, haven't tried it , but it stains the skin and says it is pure.

Not, for sure never tried it. I use stencil paper made for tattooing. If it fits in the slot it should work.

This product is supposed to be tattoo grade henna, however I have only used it on my hair.

I use Indian ink in mine . I am sure it would just have not used it on that material before

It depends on how light your hair is. BUT, pretty much as soon as you put it in it will start to color your hair....Your best bet would be to look up what to mix with this henna to make it more your natural color. There are tea's, coffee, even other powers that will help keep some of the red down :) hope this helps!

I think this is the perfect product to test out a black tattoo. The color turns to a blue/black (cool, not warm) color and is quite saturated for a henna application. Good luck!

No. I would use manic panic instead. Henna is a long process and rarely turns out to be the color on the box.

The packets come with instructions. You mix the henna with water or I mix it with hibiscus tea or red zinger to give the henna more of a red effect and mix until you get a smooth texture. Then apply to hair with gloves and always use vasaline on the hair line, ears, and neck. Henna does stain skin a little, but if you wash it off quickly it comes right with water. Hope this helps.

From what I understand henna does not do too well with gray hair. Because it does not have its own pigment anymore, it absorbs all of the henna color rather than the henna tinting your actual hair color.

Yes it would work for you if you combine it with different products ir you want it red try combining it with cinnamon if you want it blonde with a type of beer and you combine it by boiling the water and letting it taint the water first then mixing the product it is a lot healthier than using chemicals

This particular brand does not use any metallic salts in their henna blend, so you should be able to color over it as long as the mix you buy does not contain indigo. I should warn you, however, henna DOES NOT bleach out, so you'll only be able to go darker after you use it.

I have used Henna for my eyebrows, and it does work. I pre mix very little and store in the frig. The longer the mixture sits the more red color comes out.

I don't see why not. The color may come out differently then what you are wanting. I would go into a salon and let them know you have been using henna and want to color your hair with something else. Is that what you were asking?

I had no problem blending this in to liquid bees wax, shea butter and coconut oil...just put a little in at a time and stirred. Not sure why it isn't working for you.

It might not turn out the same as if you didn't use henna so it's not recommended but I don't think there's any harm in it... I llightened a friends hair after henna, and it didn't take all the color out, it made it kind of brassy so I had To go over it twice.. Henna is kind of a commitment but it is possible to dye over it.....

You can mix henna powder with indigo to get shades of auburn/black. I reccomend searching 'henna for hair' and reading the free Ebook about it. There is a lot of good information about using henna and how to mix it with different plants to get different colors. My experience with using only henna is that you can still tell the difference if your hair is multiple colors. My tips are more blonde from previous coloring and they are much more vibrant orange than the rest of my hair. So this alone will probably not blend in your grey hairs.

Yes, it can be used for henna designs on the hand; it can also be used for application on the grey hair to get a dark orange shade.
