: OH man, what a bummer!:

that
: just working with my hands alot will remove it quickly.

So true! I have 4 kids around here and with all the spot mopping,
cooking, dishes, laundry, diaper changes, (although we are almost
done with that now!) my henna never seems to last more than a week on
my hands, there are always some stubborn spots....but maybe a little
spring cleaning might help things right along....try using a little
Soft Scrub with Bleach, it is harsh but should be ok on your palm as
long as you don't have any cuts...it has little granules in it which
might be helpful..and then I think (like someone else already said)
if you go over it again the new lines will be much bolder than the
smears...good luck! Lisa O.
