I started doing henna about ten or so years ago, when friends of mine
started using it. At first it was on my hair only; it was only about
three years ago that I started decorating my hands and feet. I think
that you'll also find that friends will use similar beauty
treatments. My college roommate and I colored our hair at the same
time. Everytime I've used henna it's been in a group. Part of it is
the "If you do it I'll do it syndrome"; part the enjoyment of doing
something social.
BTW, my younger sister also does henna. I'm not certain if I was the
first one to do it or not.
