HISTORY
OF HENNA
Henna
body art temporary tattoos have been around for centuries
and henna tattoo designs have traditionally fallen into
four different styles.
The
Middle Eastern style is mostly made up of floral patterns
similar to the Arabic textiles, paintings and carvings
and do not usually follow a distinctive pattern.
The
North African style generally follows the shape of the
hands and feet using geometrical floral patterns.
The
Indian and Pakistani designs encompass more than just
the feet and hands and generally extend further up the
appendages to give the illusion of gloves and stockings
which are made up of lines, paisley patterns and teardrops.
Lastly,
the Indonesian and Southern Asian styles were a mix
of Middle Eastern and Indian designs using blocks of
color on the very tips of their toes and fingers.
All
of these styles of henna tattoos remain popular today
but have also been joined in popularity by Celtic designs
and Chinese symbols. The point once again is to have
fun with henna tattoo designs and experiment with them
until you find something that you feel really passionate
about. And then, enjoy your Mehndi Henna Tattoos …
for as long as they last!
