Best Tattoos

Celebrations across centuries have always had Mehndi as a major contributor to their splendor. Special occasions like engagements, weddings, baby showers, births and various others have all had henna as one of their main ingredients for celebration. A Hina tattoo is also the major player during religious and ceremonial days like Eid and Zar, the days of applying henna before marriage to all the friends and relatives of both the bride and bridegroom at their respective places.

Hina which is a flowering plant has been used since ancient times to dye different parts of the body. This is a process of temporary tattooing. A Hina tattoo is used as a temporary decoration during various ceremonies. The erotic designs and arts used by artists during tattooing truly have a divine effect, adding beauty to the wearer.

Due to existence of the chemical keratin in high quantities on the palms and feet, the mehndi tattoo drawn on them will have a darker color. In the past, henna was mainly used to anoint the bride and to enhance her beauty through the erotic designs of the tattoo. It is inaccurate to describe such designs as a Hina tattoo; because tattoos are permanent engravings on the skin. While such tattoos are mere designs on the surface of the skin and easily removed by washing over a period of time.

The paste is poured into a cone for accurate drawing on the skin. This type of tattoo is an intrinsic art; erotic in nature and exhilarating to view when completed. The drawing is covered with a thin tissue to retain moisture overnight. The final reddish color enhances the beauty of the tattoo and may last anywhere from a couple of weeks to a couple of months.

This type of body art has been in existence in the East since ancient times. Brides before weddings, are adorned with Mehndi as it is known in the East. In some communities, the bridegroom also gets a henna tattoo. There is also a pre marriage ritual called the Mehndi ceremony during which the friends and relatives gather to get elaborate henna tattoos done. Both the bride and the bridegroom celebrate this elaborate event at the home of the bride or as it is the practice now, at the entertainment venue. Here, amidst the ceremonial celebrations, a professional artist draws very beautiful patterns wherein the name of the groom and bride are intrinsically woven into and artistically hidden within the design.

These special tattoos are supposed to have divine blessings and hence it is used during religious ceremonies to bring good luck and joy to both the bride and the bridegroom. There are no side effects of the use of natural henna for anointing ones hands and feet. Although the government authorities have not given their seal of approval for it to be applied directly to the skin, as a hair dye it has unconditional approval.

So go ahead and obtain a Hina tattoo because it is temporary and can be removed if you do not want it anymore at a later date. Besides, no matter what you do, it is not permanent and will wear off in time during everyday use.
