5000 years ago and is now part of our everyday culture. It has been use by ancient
Egyptians; Henna is currently used by the Indian culture as a ceremonial art, and cosmetic use. Henna is also used for hair dying.
Henna is made from vegetable
dyes and does not contain bio-available lead acetate; therefore it is safe if you are pregnant. Henna plant leaves, are dried and crushed. The powder is mixed
with oil and lemon then applied to the skin.
Henna tattoos can be applied to
almost any part of the body; usually it is placed on the hands, feet, and shins but is not limited to these areas.

to be more oily will have shorter lasting results. For a longer lasting henna tattoo apply the henna to a relatively non-oily
area of the skin. Some of the most popular modern
day tattoos are tribal tattoos, cross tattoos, butterfly tattoos, dragon tattoo, mehendi tattoos, star tattoo, flash tattoos,
henna tattoos and religious tattoos.
