Honey season is in full swing. At wedding ceremonies, everyone from the bride to her friends are seen wearing henna on their hands. Applying henna increases the beauty of hands many times. There is a tradition associated with a bride's henna that the more her lover loves her, the darker the color of the henna will be. This is why every girl wants her henna color to be dark at the time of marriage. Women's makeup is incomplete without henna. If the henna color is desired to be darker then the following tips should be followed. However, before applying anything, do a 'patch test' on the skin to check that it does not have any side effects. Á First of all, clean your hands well, now apply eucalyptus oil and after that make a henna design. Á Sugar solution thickens henna. Henna becomes dark by mixing it with lemon. Apply the lemon-sugar solution on the henna with the help of a cloth and leave it till it dries. Henna color can also be darkened with the help of Vicks or Iodex. If you apply henna, leave it on overnight and gently rub it off the next morning. After this, apply wax over it to deepen the color. The heat from the wicks will darken the color of the henna. Á After applying henna, leave it for a few hours. Don't remove it, let the henna come out on its own. Leave the henna on your hands for 5 hours. Á After the henna is dry, rubbing lime on the henna palms without adding water also darkens the color of the henna. Á If you want, you can also smoke cloves on hennaed hands. This method is widely adopted in marriages. Take 3-4 cloves and heat them on a pan. When the smoke begins to rise, move your palms closer. Be careful not to burn your hand while doing this. This is a great solution to intensify the henna color Á Keep in mind that never use water to wash henna. Rub it gently and clean.
