Where do you guys do your henna bookings?

So I’m starting a henna business and I’ve never done it in anyone but family so I offered a free 2 sides (pre picked designs to choose from) henna service to get experience and get started

I use organic natural henna ofc and right now I’m only doing one person a day because I’m not sure how long the designs will take me (never done it in anyone hut fan who lets me take my time)

Ans I’m doing it at a cafe but I don’t always want to do it in there. And what about people from far away I don’t expect them to drive 30 min across the city to get their mehndi done by me

I’m wondering where you guys hold your bookings (no house studios tho I can’t do that based on my current situations). Do you have a set location or do you travel to their house? How do u stay safe? All these stuff pls let me know!!!!

And another question is how do you prepare for stalls, vendors, festivals, carnivals etc. I’ve been offered to do some but I’m so nervous I haven’t booked a spot or anything yet

I’m starting to practice in other people and I have one person tomorrow and then next on Tuesday and the next a couple days later.

I’m wondering is it safe to use the same cone on all of them or do I have to switch for every single client?

The ones I have, I’ve been able to do 8-10 designs on family in one cone but here I am only doing 2 designs per person.

Do I need to use a new cone for every client? If yes, what do I do about all the henna left in the cones that were used on the first client and then the rest from the second cone, etc?

Hello I’m doing henna on someone other than my family for the first time for free so I can build my portfolio and practice a bit on others

The first three pics are fresh stain taken off by scraping and oil and then the next two are 17hrs later

I feel like it just won’t darken on me not matter how long I leave it on or what I do

But when my family uses the same henna from the same person, it always comes out dark for them so I know the cone is a good one but it’s literally just me it won’t stain for 😭😭

These are the ingredients

◦	Imported powder from Sojat, India

◦	Organic essential oils like Eucalyptus, Lavender, Tea-Tree and Cajeput

◦	Organic sugar
