Henna tattoo originated in India, also called "mehndi", is a short period of time that can be saved body painting, is an ancient art of body decoration, very popular in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa.

We are familiar with the tattoo needle into the skin with a colored bottom. The Henna tattoos are painted with hand-painted pigment in the skin surface. After completion of the pigment and the like after dry drawing and then scraped clean, prior to the draw, a good pattern will emerge. This left a reddish-brown mark.

Raising the nose of an elephant represents family prosperity and good luck.
But now many other areas of the Henna tattoo artists will incorporate other patterns into the Henna tattoo according to their own design style. In addition to Indian flowers, birds, and elephants, Henna tattoos can be different.
I was lucky enough to get to know a Chinese Henna tattoo artist——Felix.

In fact, Henna tattoos can also be painted by ourselves. Anyone who wants to paint can draw their own paintings. If they are wrong, they can be wiped off immediately. This is much more convenient than going to tattoos. It is especially suitable for people who want tattoos and are afraid of regrets.
