Here's the update, 10 days into it
The design is pretty much off my hand except for the middle of the back of my hand.
It is still going strong -- perfectly -- on my foot and leg.
I'm still enjoying my henna. People notice and give me compliments every day.
Today, getting my hair cut, I learned that one of the receptionists is married to an Indian, and for her wedding all the family and bridesmaids had henna done by one of the cousins who does henna where she lives. I need to call her tomorrow and say I'd just love to see pictures!
My stylist has a tattoo on her foot, but she wasn't able to complete it up her ankle because it was so painful. She said I should get the henna design on my leg and foot tattooed and colored. No way! I love the idea of being able to change it.
She wondered if Natasha (hennagirl) had used a template. She was amazed that she had done it all free hand.
I think one of the prettiest designs that Natasha brought with her to show for possibilities of what could be done was one she had done up the arm and shoulder and down the other arm on a woman who was going to belly dance. The undulations of her arms would have been beautiful with the henna.
Can't you just see it!
Natasha left some of the henna with us, and when this wears off, my daughter is going to try it on me. Yippee skippee! I can't wait. I might even try to henna myself. How cool would that be!
