Henna painted patterns are similar to tattoos, giving people who are afraid of pain or afraid of being accidentally pricked an additional choice. The raw materials are natural and will not harm the skin. Different from traditional tattoos, which stay on the skin forever, Henna stays on the skin for about 7 to 15 days. The color changes from dark brown to orange-red to brown at the beginning, and then slowly falls off, so it will appear again after two weeks. You can draw new patterns and keep changing them until you get tired of them.
