About Mehndi & Henna
Mehndi is the art of applying Henna (using only natural ingredients ) to the skin as a body art to give you a temporary design.
When the paste first comes off, the design is usually orange, then oxides to a lovely cocoa-brown tone that lasts about 7 to 10 days, sometimes longer...
The pictures you see here that have black-lined designs are taken with the henna paste still on the skin. Henna is NEVER black. See this link if you desire more information about Black Henna, and why I'll never use it.
I use only natural henna powder (powdered leaves of the plant Lawsonia Inermis) mixed with lemon juice, sugars, and essential oils.
