Henna just doesn't take well on thin skin... on thicker skin, it will
hang around much longer, and stain darker to boot.
I have had good fortune with wrapping my mehndi. They come up
chocolatey or darker... hennotannins just LOVE sweat, I guess. Of
course I haven't done anything except my hands and wrists, and the
wrist came out significantly lighter and was far more transient. I
think you wouldn't want to wrap some areas, understandably enough
(did I mention it gets hot, sweaty and TIGHT under a wrap? nuff
said), so good luck there, but for everywhere wrappable, an overnight
wrap, heat, acid, and fresh henna are all you need.
