: Every time I have done someones chest or neck area it has turned out
: pretty light. If not orange then light brown. I think it would help
: to go over it again. You might want to try the paper tape or
: bandaging tape you can find with the bandaids at the drug store,
They
: are nicer on your skin. Or an ace bandage depending on what area
: you're wrapping.
: Good luck!
I have to tell you, it is definately where you put your henna! Did you
ever notice the difference in the stain between your hand and your
wrist? So close, yet the wrist does not stain so well. So, by all
means go over it until you get the desired results. Frustrating yes, I
haven't found a way around that yet. The neck even takes a stain
better than the chest. Keep at it, and good luck to you. Putting a
little camphor or eyucaliptus oil in your lemmon sugar dabbing mix and
a blow dryer might help to heat it up and speed up the color.
