I am curious, in your experience what kind of differences do you seebetween rural and urban with regard to the use of henna and the kinds
of designs? I have heard that in India there is a difference in the
attitude towards henna: that urban women think of it as something
mostly rural women do. In Morocco I haven't found this to be true;
there seems to be a very similar attitude about henna regardless of
class or location. The only difference is the kind of designs found
in rural and urban areas.
I am curious to hear how you see this. Thanks.
