Xanthan Gum

[clevermanka]

One teaspoon of xanthan gum mixed with one cup of water, whisked, blended with one teaspoon of salt and 100g of indigo and enough water added to make a paste: WIN! nottygypsy, you're gonna be thrilled at how well this goes on. It's almost smoother than the henna.

Oh man, I read "whisked" as "whiskey" and got really seriously confused. I went from that point forward thinking you were describing a drink and had some trouble with the inclusion of indigo and the paste conclusion. I'm glad you're not drinking indigo paste.

Ha! No, not drunk. Although a couple glasses of something might at least help me not care so much that my head stinks like a old barn.

would that work with the henna as well, do you think?

With CCJ's henna, I haven't needed to thicken it up. It goes in really smooth.
