: : Hello all, : : I wanted to respond out of clearity and not disrespect, to : information found on the "black Henna" disclaimerpage. : : There is a such thing as black henna, and I don't mean what popular : salons might use to change the color of your beautiful tatu's : (tattoo's)to any color of the rainbow. : : This colour is mostly seen in North and East Africa, in countries : such as Morroco and the Sudan. If you go into most Middle Eastern : markets in your area, when asking for a box or bag of henna, they : might ask you "Red or Black?". What you will see in powder form will : be green, however once mixed and applied to your skin...you guessed : it, the end result...black henna. : : So it does exsist. Just because it's not mentioned much, doesn't : mean it's not true. Just like how most henna web sites only use : India to speak of for the orgin of henna being used in design (and/or : for cooling purposes) in India. Neglecting to mention the countries : in Africa that use it as well. The designs used may differ but it's : henna! : : So, if anyone has any questions or comments, please don't hesitate : to write me: MsProverbs31@aol.com or just post here. : : I'll try to find some web sites to support the true (not recent : commercialized) Black Henna. Or feel free to ask your local Moroccan : or Sudanese friend. :o) : Hi Razi, : I read your message and just wanted to let you know my personal veiw : in response to your message in brief. : As I know many of the sites explain, where the Mehndi comes from. : I guess each page you find in the web are written by individuals who : write from there own experiences and what they think of Henna. I have : seen personally couple of sites who write beyond their origin and : with scientific facts. If some one has written about India that mean : the writer has knowledge about India rather then others countries. It : was not actually very popular till not long ago. Hollywood artists : brought Henna to more exposure ( if I am not wrong) that is the : reason more people know it's origin is India as the art work was done : by Indian Mehndi artist. I personally haven't seen many sites who : didn't mentioned about other parts of the countries. : It is true though in India Our grand parents used it for : coolness (soothingness) in summer.I have met people in USA also who : use it for the same purpose. I think many will agree with me on this. : As far as it goes to Black color: I can't argue. I know some : facts about the color of pure Henna in India. I am not a science nurd : or a Mehndi researcher. some one with detailed knowledge about Henna : or fact finder could explain more about that. I know for sure some : people get very dark stain on their skin and on the other hand others : don't with the same Henna. : I am from India and I have seen it.
