The Freeman mask would have little affect on getting rid of a
design. It's better to go with something with Alpha Hydroxy in it.
I'll have to actually measure what I did with the lemon/sugar and
Freeman mask. I think any peel off mask would work, actually.
I did make sure that the henna was crusty dry before I brushed on the
mask mixture. Then I brushed on a thin coat mainly on the lines and
dried with the hair dryer. The second coat went over most of the
design (hair dryer again) and the last coat went over the whole
design and about a quarter inch outside of the design. Then I dried
again and put gauze and tape over the barely tacky "masked design".
I had done small dot designs just below the nail on one client and
rather than wrapping her fingers in gauze, I just wrapped a small
piece of the micropore tape over the design. (More like a band aid--
I hated to send her home looking like a burn victim!) This seemed to
work very well. I've done it on several very different designs in
different areas on different skin types. Hope that helps a bit.
