Hi all, 

I have read about using henna as a natural dye and was wondering if anyone knows the process. I think I had read something in the older forums, but since those are not available now, I am not sure how this would go about? 

I want to try painting a few scarfs with my henna patterns and firstly I want to know, what is the process? Is it, henna, then dry, then iron & scrape off or henna, let dry and scrape off, and iron it... Also I would like to know, if there are specific fabrics that take the stain better than the others and should the henna recipe be different than what one would use for body art. Also, any solutions for bleed issues?

Basically, I would like a quick training on this topic :)

Thanks!
