When I want to quickly remove a henna stain from skin, I use rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball to saturate the area, and rub until it becomes very light. Remember, henna penetrates only the stratum corneum of the skin, the thin layer of cells that are sloughed off over time. If you rub the area enough, it will come off with friction. Normally, well-taken-care-of henna stains will last about a month, or 4 weeks. If you wash the area excessively, the stain will be removed faster than with natural fading.

Before the day of the wedding there is a Henna Party when the bride gets her Henna, along with others family members, applied at her home. The henna is prepared differently for the hair.

Henna darkens each day after (over three days) to get the full colour. Then eventually it gradually fades naturallly.
