So henna is a plant from India and it grows naturally it's a leaf and it has natural dyeing properties they dry it and crush it up into really fine powder and put it with lemon juice and some other oils then it turns into henna paste you put on the skin and it dies the skin I like to smell of it too and it does have some therapeutic properties and antifungal properties.
So it's all-around good for your skin I just was playing with it with my friends and then I had the opportunity to have a spot here at the fair and I thought what could I do and I decided I'll do some henna tattoos so the first year we didn't really have a fancy sign a lot of my friends were just kind of hanging out we were doing it and then people really liked it so I decided to be kind of a good idea to capitalize on that and now we have a really nice little business here just so that we can have everyone's tattoos look similar.
We have this numbering system and then files with the design and a transfer of the design so that we can just put the transfer on their skin and pretty much trace over it with the henna because if we didn't do it that way everyone's could start looking a lot different there you go I just pressed in it as much as something right they can last anywhere from a week to three weeks depending on how will you take care of it and what part of the body it's on.
So if you get on your hand that's really sick skin so it'll absorb it really well be darker but then you might wash your hands pretty often so then that might make it wear off faster okay so now that there's your tattoo so you have to be really careful not to smudge it for about half an hour that's on there pretty thick so it'll stain dark what do you have to be careful not just smudging I love it.
I chose the Tree of Life because it represents my grandma she had an ornament life and she believed in it I chose star cos I like stars in the relief I did it last year for the first time and I liked it so I thought well that's one thing I'm going to do it's fair every year it's fun and look you can do a lot of different designs and you can kind of try out henna tattoos if you're thinking about getting a tattoo or if you're not ready to get a tattoo it's kind of a fun way to put something special on your body without having it there for the rest of your life do you like that I don't and you can add it to it.
