Henna is a plant used since ages making temporary tattoos on skin. In India it is known as "Mehndi" and being used by Indians in rituals related to marriage and birth of a child since olden times. Henna paste is meant to be applied to the hands and feet of a woman, and it stains (beautifully) the skin like a tattoo albeit temporarily. Most of us like to adorn our bodies, whether it is through jewelry, makeup, or accessories.Some people also enjoy tattoos, but the adornment through the art of tattooing is often permanent and difficult, if not impossible to remove once the tattoo has been applied.If you are interested in adding art to your body, but do not want something that will last forever, a henna tattoo may be just what you're looking for. Mehndi is another word for henna tattoos, and represents the art of decorating the body with intricate and detailed patterns and artwork.The art itself comes from the Indian culture, and women and men there have been using it for thousands of years |
