- Place henna paste in a zip bag, close zip and snip a bottom corner about ¼ in diameter.
- Plastic or Mylar cone: Squeeze out henna from the zip bag into an applicator cone or a hand-rolled Mylar cone.
- Snip a fine opening the size of a pinhole at the tip of the cone (if the Mylar cone already has a pin-size opening you may not need to snip the tip).
- Slide down the paste towards the tip with your fingertips.
- Close the open end with a rubber band. Note: The plastic cones are reusable! Applicator Bottle:
- Squeeze out henna from the zip bag into the applicator bottle, tapping the bottle on a table top to remove air bubbles.
- Close the bottle and twist the plastic tip onto the nozzle until snug.
- Wash out tip after each use to prevent clogging.
Hint: It is easier to put the paste into a plastic cone rather than a zip bag, snip a hole about 1/4 in diameter at the tip of the cone and use it to squeeze out henna paste into the applicator bottle.
