There are different ways you can prepare
henna. Essential oils help darken the color, but the tattoo will fade faster.
You can use eucalyptus oil, tea tree oil, or mehendi oil. Some people recommend
using gasoline; it will give you a dark color, but it is not safe. Also mix the
henna with back tea with sugar, and lemon juice. First, mix in just enough tea
and lemon juice until the henna is firm. Make sure to get all the lumps out, so
it is easy to get it through the tip of the applicator. Then after you get all
the lumps out, you put a few drops of any essential oil you wish. After you
have that in, you can put more of the tea and lemon juice until the henna is
like a toothpaste texture. You put the henna in your applicator, and let it sit
for about six hours so the ingredients can mix in. I like to use the eucalyptus
and the tea tree oil. The mehandi oil gives the best stain color, but has
unknown ingredients in it. If you know you have fresh henna, you don’t have to use oils.
Fresh henna usually will give a strong stain. Just mix it with tea and lemon juice.
