Henna tats are designed to fade. Just wait it out. It will disappear eventually.

As far as I know you can't remove henna. what happens is the henna absorbs into your skin and stains the skin cells. It doesn't actually fade, it wears away when the top layers of skin exfoliate. To speed it's disappearence try soaking it in chlorinated water, then using a bath glove, (the scratchy kind)

wash/exfoliate the tattoo with a natural soap. Try Jergens Pure and Natural, it's cheap too.

You could just soak the tattoo is regular water too, it will soften the skin for easier exfoliation. Don't scrub too hard, you don't want to damage your skin.

Good Luck!

It will fade if gradually but to prevent it from darkening don't expose it to heat and don't apply oil

I know it sounds weird, but try waxing that area a couple of times for an almost instant result. It will fade to a great extent almost immediately. Then you'll probably have to just wait for a day or two for it to disappear completely.
