CCJ's henna for breasts seem mainly to get used at pagan gatherings,
where women have the option to go topless... I'm not sure but I'd
guess that is her target clientele for those designs.
I know that some places traditionally did bridal henna on some parts
of the torso, *sometimes*, I _ very highly_ doubt you'd have that
option requested, particularly by a Muslim and in a western country,
with you being a stranger, non-afghan and non-muslim. So I really
wouldn't worry! (and defintely don't offer!)
