Henna

Hey there,

I just wanted to share some henna that my friend put on for me. Once in a while,(usually about fasting month),many people will put on henna for Hari Raya to celebrate Eid. Basically the end of Ramadhan. In Singapore we celebrate it for about a month and working adults often give the younger generation 'green packets' containing money. I am not sure if it is the same for all muslims though. Cause sometimes I feel like its more of culture than religion.

 

This is one of my more favorite ones that she drew on me. I wanted an A cause my name starts with A. Below you can see a henna version she drew on me...

Here is us both with the double infinity logo which is quite badly drawn on cause we were using our left hands. I was crazy over double infinities cause of the TV show Revenge.

 

Here are more that she drew on me. I really admire her ability to do this. I suck at it.

 

Henna tends to last a week or so depending on the quality of the henna and how much of it you actually put on. Its like a temporary tattoo. Basically your top layer of skin cells absorbs the dye from the  henna. So the more you exfoliate, the faster it will go off.

 See you guys!
