Henna Tattoos

[emalee]

Can anyone give me a tip on where to get henna tattoo kits. I've heard you have to be very careful not to get dodgy ones ! thanxxx

Have you googled it as loads come up? But I know what you're saying - you don't know how good they are... I know it's not 'real' but I think I'd go in a tattoo parlour (Reputable) near you and see if they know - worth a try...

Hi emalee, if you have an alternative shop in your town they may have kits and stencils, or be able to tell you more about them.
The only reason I can think that henna could be a bit dodgy was if it was mixed with a poisonous plant, as henna tattooing doesn't pierce your skin or anything. An allergic reaction is possible, but quite rare.
All I would say is steer clear of henna on holiday, because reports of dodgy materials are often heard!
I used to henna all the time, and I loved having hennaed feet :)
