Description Henna, is a form of indian traditional body art where they apply some paste that leaves stains on the skin, this is done in many designs. From what i observe, only the women do it.
Most designs of Henna are floral patterns.

My first few attempts at Photography
Comments much appreciated. Thankies

It is also a common Arabic practice, especially as a bridal decoration. They use it to dye hair also. You can even find henna in the ingredients of your grocery store hairdye.

awesome! Where did you get the henna book/supplies? I have heard of a bad kind of henna called "Black Henna" that apparently burns your skin/causes adverse reactions and I dont want that lol. So I need to know where/what to get haha

To make sure that you don't get black henna, one of the easiest things to do is check the ingredients. There shouldn't be any unfamiliar chemicals. If you can't read it (if it's in Arabic, Hindi, etc.) just don't get it. (It probably would be okay, though, especially if a picture shows the henna as a red/brown color and not black.)

Here's a good, informative site: [link]

Again, as for products [link] has really good stuff.

Amazing! Beautiful work. What kind of paste is this? Do you have to wash the paste off after a while? How long did it take for you to design this hand?

no the paste comes from the henna plant and the longer u leave it on the darker and it dries due to air and falls off and is used to die hair red and black i am dieing my hair with it as we speak

very nice shot... could be clearer though... understandable that the hand doing the design is blur as it probably was moving... but the hand with the design could've been slightly clearer... or maybe the hand was moving too... but anyhows... a faster shutter speed? but nice shot... good idea and nice contrast of the red colours in it...
