5 Helpful Tips When Using the Elleebana Brow Henna Kit
Posted by Elyse Aufmann on
Elleebana’s Brow Henna Kit is the ultimate tool for beauty artists. To help you use this kit like a pro, here are our top tips for working with Elleebana Brow Henna.
Clean the Skin
Before you apply the henna, thoroughly clean your client’s brows and the immediate area around them. Using Elleebana Makeup Remover and Elleebana Brow Henna Shampoo, thoroughly cleanse the brow area. This removes dirt, oils, and moisturizers that could affect how the henna stains the skin and coats the hair.
Understand Mixing Ratios
Henna is naturally a warm red-orange color, but you can achieve other colors through mixing. If you want to darken a shade or make it cooler, mix it with 5 to 10 percent black or dark brown henna dye. Elleebana’s black and dark brown colors contain extra indigo powder, which neutralizes warmth and creates a richer result.
Follow Proper Processing Times
Our next tip for using the contents of your Elleebana Brow Henna Kit is to follow the recommended processing times. Ideally, you want to leave Elleebana Brow Henna on for 20-30 minutes and let the henna dry before you remove it. Letting the henna process for less than or more than this range can result in under or overwhelming results.
Layer, Layer, Layer
While layering isn’t necessary for every treatment, we recommend this technique if your client wants a deep color or has dye-resistant skin or hair. As the henna dries, gradually apply new layers on top of it. This improves the henna’s color and potency.
Remove Gently
When it’s time to remove the henna, proceed carefully. To remove dried henna, rub it gently with a wet pad until it comes off. Don’t rub too roughly, or you could rip the henna off the brow hairs—ouch!
