How to extend the life of a painted henna tattoo
How long your drawn tattoo will last depends largely on compliance with the following recommendations:
Before drawing a tattoo, be sure to peel and depilate the skin.
Clean and smooth skin is the first rule to keep your tattoo lasting as long as possible.
After applying the pattern, try not to swim in salt water, and avoid soap and various scrubs during water procedures.
Try to reduce your physical activity so that the tattoo does not start to peel off due to heavy sweating.
Please note that the most persistent areas of the body for a tattoo are the wrist, neck (back), ankle. Tattoos painted on the chest, neck (front) or belly wear off much faster.
If you can influence the choice of ingredients when painting with henna, make sure that you mix: natural henna, ground coffee beans or black tea, lavender oil, sugar. This temporary tattoo can last up to 1 month.
After applying the image, be sure to lubricate the tattoo with sesame or almond oil.
By completing all these points, you will be able to admire the temporary tattoo for much longer than you expect.
