For events use the events & leisure insurance companies....you can
usually find these if you look up brokers and ask them for events
insurance brokers although if memory serves me correct one is based
on the Isle of Wight.

Otherwise there is some posts about this in the archives between Lynn
and I......i have the address of a company that will insure henna
artists for quite reasonable rates.

Lynn will no doubt post the addy before i find it ;)

Problem you face is that it is counted as tattooing....which is a big
no no.....if in doubt ask a tatooist!!! they will have insurance and
go through the same company.....otherwise you have had it no company
or brokers will not touch you at all.
