Latex is a very useful henna ler for some parts of the body and in
some situations.

In pubic or breast henna, for instance .... a henna paste done with
lots of EO's would likely raise a rash. They're difficult areas to
stain. You can't wrap 'em ... BUT ... you can seal them with liquid
latex and get a very decent stain.

Liquid latex will make your skin hot and sweatty underneath, and this
keeps henna in place, encourages uptake and your sweat has ammonia
which helps the henna.

Liquid latex is a great sealer on parts that you have to put clothing
on over .. as it will seal the henna to the skin .. and with a light
dusting of baby powder, stays put.

It's a Lousy sealer for furry bits .. as it rips all the fur out when
you remove it.

It's a dreadful sealer for flexing bits, as it dislodges and screws up
everything.

Good for backs, non-furry bums and tummies, furless pubes, breasts,
shoulders, biceps, necks. Hopeless for feet, hands, ankles, furry
places.

Some people are severely allergic to latex! Always ask! If they look
bewildered if you ask if they're allergic to latex, ask if they're
allergic to condoms. They've likely figured that one out. Don't ask
them how.

Clear latex over henna, powdered and hit with a shot of body glitter
looks GREAT!
