Has anybody ever bought henna from Al Muhajabat? (they specialize in
arab clothing) I recently bought a whole bunch of the stuff, and its
been acting strangely. It seems to stain the skin it doesn't even
touch! I drew a really lacy design on my palm, and when I woke up, the
paste was still in place, but all the areas around it were red too! It
looked like the dye had spread through my skin! Weird!?!? It also
stained my toenails grey!! My suspician is that there is dye added or
somthing. It also becomes EXTREMELY sticky when the paste is mixed,
even if I have not added sugar!? Its consistency is like when you make
cookies, and all of the wet ingredients are not added, yet, and it is
sooooo hard to stir. And this is after I have added 5 times as much
liquid as henna! Talk about absorbant! It would be sad if it Was
artificial, because it is vey nice to work with, once the consistency
is right. HHMMM... Any info would be greatly appreciated!!
