Henna art is the ultimate party starter for women in the Middle East.
Unlike permanent tattoos, henna stains are a temporary work of art, typically lasting between 1-2 weeks. No long-term commitment also means more room for creativity AND fun!
But applying henna is best left for the veterans; it’s intricate, the consistency can be tricky, and staining times are no guesswork.
