What is henna staining
Eyebrow dying with henna is a technique of dyeing hairs with plant pigment of lavsonium or henna leaves. The dye is obtained by drying the leaves, which is completely natural. It is actively used for dyeing hair, recreating patterns on the body.
Eyebrow tattooing henna is considered the safest procedure for correcting the hair growth line and visually adding density. Dyeing pigment does not penetrate the hairs and does not injure the skin in any way, which makes it easy to wash off after a few weeks.
To answer the question of what is better for eyebrows to be stained with henna or paint, it is necessary to compare the advantages and disadvantages of both methods.
Advantages of henna and Basma staining of the eyebrows:

The pros of eyebrows staining with paint:
1. the effect of staining is noticeable for 1 month. The henna won't last this long because it doesn't penetrate the inside of the hair, but only covers the outside of the hair;
2.Ease of use. If you need a recipe, the right proportions and much more for cooking henna, then the paint just spread evenly over the hairs. It is much easier to make it "dyeable";
