Henna...IS NOT A Temporary TATTOO!?
does anyone get irritated as me,I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE SAY "TEMPORARY HENNA TATTOO".,,i had to write articles about this ancient exotic body art. its used in 60 countries for thousands of years..from the lacy or geometric patterns to the large beautiful floral designs...henna has always been part of traditional body art. henna is not anywhere near a tatoo,its not ink and it isnt permemant.....getting little squiggles on the hand is nothing. why people put henna in the same sentence as a tattoo..i dunno why..u people can explain that? explain it to me...i really wanna know why this ancient body art is associated with a tattoo? but if u speak to people of those cultures...including myself..its very irritating that people associate a traditional body art with a "tatoo"....tattooes are permenant and they use ink. its not a fashion accessory either, the way some people use it..its like theyre talking about the latest fashion accessory...nooo. one person asked "what is henna" contact me and i promise to give u a full detailed explanation. Lady H....that is inaccurate!! its temporary in that it lasts a couple of weeks....but some people get poisined from the ink of tattooes..and again, tattooes are permenant...in 20 years..do u want that butterfly or whatever animal it is on ur neck or wherever? Im telling u....henna is not a tatoo! it only became to be considered one when it made its way from the east to the west. henna is not an ink..its a natural paste

- way to take it too seriously. the meanings of words change over time and civilizations. tattoos are body art, henna is body art, so we relate them to eachother. besides do teh words temporary and tattoo belong together....no, but you didn't notice that, because you are used to hearing it, because we have made it a new phrase. plus people are stupid, you can't expect too much
- well then, what is henna?
- I dont EXACTLY know, Its just the fact that. Henna tattoo is not temporary, but it is still on the skin so it is clased as "Tattoo". Henna can also be bad for your skin, leaving you allergic to make-up forever. Only if it gets irritated. Some people are lucky, some are not. It leaves scars. xo
- your right and wrong Henna is a type of tatto, becuase a henna contain ink. But the ink is not inserted or in the skin. henna temporary tattoo content 9 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tattoo henna dealing with culture http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henna
