: : Dear Henna Artists, : Be informed that any brand paints being used in USA/Europe for skin : designing and not at all safe for tattooing because painting is : actually a coating on skin which blocks pores of skin to take oxygen, : this is great that these paints doesn't last more then 2-4days as I : leart here. But all of my Coloured Henna Pastes including this BLACK : Henna Paste actually dyes the skin and skin pores remains in natural : way to take oxygen. As in April 2000 I have improved in the dying : capacity of all of my cloured henna pastes so now the dyed skin : remains vibrant for almost 2 weeks , then starts diminishing : gradually, during all this period 'skin' pores remains in natural : condition ( I mean no blockage of pores as in 'paints/liquids' ) : For the general people and artists interested in "SAFE" Black tattoos, : I confirms and assures that my Black Henna Paste is completely safe : product for skin designing and anybody any age group can apply on : their skin. : 'Navaid' : Site: www.navaidhenna.com : P.S: I know I am not supposed to intervene in henna artists : mutual discussion, but due to frequent warnings for Black Henna usage : on this page. I think I am justified to write here in order to inform : generally that my Black Henna Paste is not among that hazardous stuff. : : Hej Catherine,
: : What about products like Manic Panic or Punky Colour? I remember : : reading something in a bodyart newsgroup about someone who wanted to : : paint a design on himself for a race and was looking for a semi- : : permanent dye that wouldn't run once he started to sweat. Someone : : else suggest Manic Panic/Punky Colour/other coloured temporary hair : : dye. And in another newsgroup, goth fashion I think, there was some : : talk a year ago or so of using the Manic Panic/Punky Colour to paint : : designs on ones skin. (This group also had a little henna thread : : going back then; haven't seen much of it recently.) : : I tried to streak my hair with black Manic Panic when I was younger, : : but the dye wouldn't take to my hair. I finally threw out the : : container a few months ago, otherwise I'd check that out. : : --Anne : : : I thought I'd find out how easy it is to purchase PPD, how : : available it is .... like that. Here's what I found out: : : : In the US nearly every "Black" hair dye has ppd in one form or : : another. There were at least 5 different forms listed on various : : boxes. Every grocery grocery and drug store has boxes of black hair : : dye with ppd. The most concentrated form is Bigen black hair dye, : : and that's at Sally Beauty supply. : : : : : : Can anyone buy a box of straight Bigen ppd black dye? Yup. No : : license is required. No permit is required. There is no age limit. : : The health warnings on the package are minimal. : : : Any 14 year old with $5.19 can go get enough Bigen ppd black dye : to : : do "black henna" to cause a stunning amount of wreckage to their own : : and other's heath. No questions would ever be asked about the : : intended use. The cashier would have little or no clue that PPD is : a : : transdermal toxin, and would have no idea the person might indend to : : put it straight on the skin. The teenager would only know that she'd : : heard "black henna" looked groovy, and that she could make money : : doing it.
