Henna Time is Finally Here! Friday 4/11/14 at The Midnight Sun

It is warm enough, often enough, for a good start to henna season. Recently clients have been phoning for henna appointments. Here are a few answers to the FAQ of temporary body art.

1) Henna is available on Friday from 12:30 pm - 6:00 pm at The Midnight Sun.
2) No appointment is required for Friday service.
3) Henna is never black, the photos of black henna are paste on the skin.
4) Henna tattoo lasts longest if you take good care of your skin after the tattoo is applied.
5) Henna prices start at $15 and go up from there. That is the minimum price for adults.
5) Henna belongs on the hands, arms, feet and legs.
6) I do not put henna on the face or neck.
7) Henna tattoo is actually a heat activated body stain this means:

• The longer the paste stays on your skin the darker the finished color will be.
• The hotter it is, the more your pores open, and the deeper the finished color.
• Keeping olive oil on the finished design helps your color last longest.
• Keeping your design out of chlorinated water preserves the design. 
• Please, no lotion on skin!! Henna does not penetrate moisturizer. 
• Henna can be applied to all skin colors.

Henna Tattoo! The Rains is Away! Hot and Sunny Henna Time at The Midnight Sun

Come on over to The Midnight Sun this afternoon and indulge in the ancient body art of henna tattoo!

Pictured here is a more intricate pattern, a traditional style henna... and this is the paste on the skin.

After the paste has dried, it is removed and the rich reddish brown henna design is revealed.

Prices start at $15 and go up from there. Cash please! There are pattern books, photo albums, and galleries to look at for some inspiration.

This design is a "chef's choice pattern".. which means you tell the artist how much money you want to spend, what style of henna you like, and wait for henna to discover that pattern that is already there.

The paste used is fresh, hand made by the artist, and gives a deep and long lasting finished color.

How long does it take? In general a design can be applied in 5 to 10 minutes. Drying time maybe a bit longer... but then today you can go stand in the sun a few minutes and the paste should dry nicely.

A little spritz of lemon sugar glaze will help keep the paste on your skin. Best to leave the paste on as long as possible. The longer the paste remains, the better it penetrates the skin, and the darker your finished color will be.

No worries! Your artist will send you home with a lovely design and aftercare instructions. Henna starts @ 2pm today at 1055 Park Street, Jacksonville, Florida 32204.

Henna on the Palm - A simple pattern gives good color.

Here is a very simple henna tattoo for the palm of the hand. My client reported that she had an excellent out come with this henna tattoo, that the color was quite dark, and that the pattern lasted a good long time.

I have just found out that the batch of henna paste I mixed up for Sunday did not give a deep an rich a stain for her as the paste I used to make this design.

I can only imagine this is because I used a new henna powder.  All other steps I took to make the paste were the same... except the supplier for the henna powder.

So, if any of my clients have not had a deep stain from their henna tattoo in the past two weeks, please give me a call!!

I am very happy to give you a second tattoo at no charge if your first henna did not give good color.  I will make up a nice fresh paste using a henna powder that I know gives excellent results every time.

I will keep shopping for a new henna powder supplier! Wishing every happiness. Ann George
