Sudan Henna Mehndi upcoming trip.

Looking forward to an upcoming trip to Sudan and Damar City to find henna. Of course adding what's called 'black rock' or suspending wet applied henna over smoke to blacken it is not something I advocate, the designs of Sudan are blood and very beautiful. I am a frim believer in safe organic henna. Natural once cure over a two day period is a bright red to deep mahogany color.

Sudani Henna Mehndi in Luxor

Showing Natural henna tattoos in Luxor

  it is a challenge indeed to get the women of Upper Egypt to use natural henna tattoos and not the black that they are used to. One successful trick I have found is to wear the natural stain Mehndi and have a fresh supply of henna cones an hand to give as gifts! It works!  As a lot of you know there are many dangers attached to using anything in henna to make it stain black.the main ingredient to attain this is a potentially harmful chemicals called PPD. So remember when you have your henna done elect to use natural and don't take a chance.

In defense of the customs in Egypt however, many have used the way of adding black rock to their henna and have no problems. When I warn them about this they were quite surprised and said they have done this a longtime here without any problems. It's hard to break with tradition. Peace

Classic Henna Design Paste from South India

I inquired to my Host Fiaza about the various mehndi design pastes used here in  Rajahmundry. I stressed I wanted a natural paste which did not contain PPD's or any harmful chemicals.  We took a ride to a local beauty supply store and purchased whats called Classic Mehndi cones. When we got home we removed the pins from the tip and i noticed right away it did not have the chemical smell I was used to in the pre made cones and detected Rosa Oil and Eucalyptus. I was in for big surprise at the beautiful dark maroon color which developed over the next 36 hours!  

What do you think?

Rajahmundry India Rangoli & Mehndi

Finely being able to be here in Hindustan in the land of Mehndi and beautiful Rangoli designs has been a real blessing and very enjoyable. I love the 'head shake' of approval thing they have going on! The food is wonderful and healthy as long as you stay cool with the spices and don't eat to much rice! The population here in Rajahmundry A.P. is about 95% Hindi and 5% Muslim. Everywhere you walk and in front of most doorways are beautiful rangoli designs for protection and to ward off evil spirits. Some are done in paint but most are done with chalk daily. On the way back to my flat I sighted this beautiful design and snapped this photo.

These type of designs are used in prenatal henna designs for expectant Moms.
