Henna teacher

topic posted Sun, March 9, 2008 - 6:34 PM by  Veronicah
Hi Vixens!
I am trying to find someone who knows something about henna and would like to come to a baby shower to teach the participants the basics, so they can henna each other. Do any of you wonderful goddesses know someone who might be interested?
Love,
Veronicah

    I consider myself to be a beginner at henna and not ready to teach anyone.
    And my friend who taught me likes in Oklahoma......sorry I couldn't help.

      Thanks ladies! I did contact Laura before as she was recommended to me, but so far no reply. I've decided to order some premixed myself and a couple stencil kits for the less artistically inclined and hope I can help anyone who needs it since I have hennaed a few myself. :-)

        Here's a tip I learned...

        print out some simple designs

        bring a pad of tracing paper and
        a charcoal pencil....if you like a design
        trace it on the tracing paper, wet the
        skin, apply the design over wet skin,
        rub it on and then peel the paper off.

        You should have a design on the skin
        there to trace over with henna.

        Also if you apply heat (blow dryer) to the
        drying henna it will set the color better.

          Thanks Vixxen! Hope we will get a chance to meet soon. It seems like a lot of my friends like Just Chris love you and I can't wait to get my ass back to SD and see what all the hub bub is about. :-D

    We would love to help out, but fear we are too far away.
    TAke a look at our web site for some ideas, perhaps you can self teach and have a fun time doing it with friends.
    www.hennacaravan.com
    We have small and large kits and all the components are also for sale.
    If you can decorate a cake using piping you have the basic idea down and can transfer your skill to body art.
    have fun.

      Thanks Flavia! That is exactly what we ended up doing and now I have a great kit to henna anytime I want. Yay craftiness!
