Henna painting is a wonderfully relaxing and luxurious process. Loved by young and old, henna can bring a variety of people together at any occasion. Henna is an ancient form of temporary body art dating back more than 5000 years. It has been used across many cultures. Traditionally, Muslims and Hindus decorate the skin of those participating in special ceremonies, such as a wedding or circumcision, in places like Indonesia and India. It is said that the bride’s honeymoon will be however long her henna tattoo lasts! These days, Henna parties are used by many folks to celebrate a variety of events in a creative, unique way.
Henna gives a coffee brown to red brown color which reflects the pigments in each individual’s skin, a more elegant result than other temporary tattoos. Henna is the longest lasting safe body paint. You can expect a henna tattoo to last for up to four to five days. In addition to contemporary tattoo style designs, henna has its own tradition of designs that can vary from region to occasion.
You can book a henna artist to professionally create the design of your choice for each guest. Or you can do it yourself by purchasing a henna kit, practice before the party and produce henna designs for yourself and friends.
Depending on the fineness of the paste, you can apply henna with a tube, like icing a cake. With a lot of coordination and care, people can achieve intricate designs full of scrolls, swirls, paisley outlines, and dots. Henna tattoos create temporary bracelets, motifs, emblems, or words.
Send out cards with henna designs on them for fun invitations. Encourage folks to bring and Indian or Middle Eastern dish like curry or hummus and serve Baklava for dessert. Add some Eastern music and you will enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of your henna party, creating an exotic experience that will be remembered for years to come!
