Henna Body Art

Henna Body Art

Henna powder destined for colouring the hair & adorning the skin is made from the crushed leaves of the Henna Plant Lawsonia Inermis, a tall shrub-like plant that thrives in hot and dry climates. To produce the finest quality henna powder the leaves are air-dried, out of direct sunlight, in order to preserve the staining properties. The dried leaves are then ground into a fine powder, ready for preparing henna paste. Henna Body Art is here to stay and a new Western tradition of Henna Body Art has evolved, with new and exciting artwork running alongside traditional Eastern styles. Henna Tattoos are now a well-established part of our Western Youth Culture. The new Henna Tattoo design styles are now filtering back to the East, creating a renewed interest in an old traditional product in todays Eastern Youth Culture
