Cling wrap = Saran wrap, etc.... ...just a little note -- I don't like using cling wrap, it smears the designs. I tell my customers that, optimally, they should get the henna done in the middle or later in the day, not worry if some paste flakes off (I add a little sugar to the mix and treat the design with lemon juice and sugar after it dries, so not much is lost). Then wrap the design in toilet paper or gauze and SLEEP WITH IT!!! Yes, it can be done without getting gunk all over the sheets. When you sleep your whole body gets nice and toasty warm (which is the most important factor in getting a deep, rich color), the design is protected but not smooshed under the T.P./ gauze, and when you wake up you have a nice, deeply-set stain that will continue to darken over the next day.
