Description
I do henna and henna designs too. I have done henna on myself several times, once for the Renaissance Festival. It is an art form that I truly love. The longest I could ever leave it on was for ten hours all while applying lemon juice every two minutes and keeping it under a lamp. This is a design I made while bored in some class from junior year. I have many more, but they magically disappeared.Related content

Yup, the lemon keeps it moist to avoid paste drying and cracking and the light gives heat which prolongs the life.

Whoa! You managed to fit so much in there, but it all fits together so well! It would take major skill to get all the fine lines in on the fingers. Really nice design

That's really chill. From the thumbnail it seems as if there was no outline for the hand, which I think makes it even cooler. I love heavy ink ^-^, stay motivated.

I love shades that are so dark they give me the perception of heavy ink ^o^

thats really cool ive been looking into henna art myself lately, is it very hard?

Just takes patience and the right kind of equipment and application. Syringes and carrot bags are your best friend. They can give you the finest lines. Constantly coat the henna paste with lemon juice and sugar, and keep it under a lamp. Leave it on for a minimum of eight hours.
