Inai (Henna)

1. What is henna?

   Inai (as it is called in Malay) or Henna (Lawsonia inermis, also called henna tree) is a flowering plant used since antiquity to dye skin, hair, fingernails, leather and wool. The name is also used for dye preparations derived from the plant, and for the art of temporary tattooing based on those dyes.

2. How long does the henna designs last?

   The henna designs that I do lasts from one week to three weeks. Usually the best way to prolong your henna design is to apply any moisturizing lotion after the colour sets in and avoid immediate contact with soapy liquids/water right after you received your henna design. 

3. Allergic to henna?

   If you've never used henna before, you may want to do a skin test to be sure you're not allergic. The allergy is called a "napthoquinone sensitivity". If you put henna on your skin, and in 1 hour have itching, a tight chest, or wheezing, you have a napthoquinone sensitivity and you should not ever use henna.

Services

1. What services do I offer?

   My henna designs can be done either for bridal or any occasion. Designs vary from hands, palms and feet. Usually I will try to match the design if it is requested on both hands and feet.
