I got the arab letter "nun" surrounded by some floral ornaments. The ISI group in Irak is marking Christian houses with the nun sign just like the Nazis did with the Jewish people and the star of David. On the internet, people have been choosing the nun sign as a profile picture to raise awareness and show sympathy, because this topic is hardly covered on the news. I chose this way to show my support. Ironically, I got the tattoo made at the Berliner ramadan street festival, which is a festival to celebrate mulism traditions.

Lovely :D

 I have become a Henna artist. I work public and private events.

My friend did one for me with a henna kit she had it was cool. She was an artist so I got the pretty detailed swirling lines associated with it but it deal feel weird have the stuff on that makes the tattoo.

Gave myself one in college

My friend Hannah studied Henna as part of her GCSE art project so she did it on me at Boardmasters, it was so good that somebody paid her £10 to do it! 

 Took a family vacation to the Colorado Springs area. On our last day there, we returned to Manitou Springs, a very eclectic lively area with wonderful shops. This trip was about doing new things. I started to walk past the henna place, but it pulled at me. I poured through their books and found one I really liked that went up my forearm. My daughter also got her first henna tattoo at the same time. The woman even sprinkled colored glitter on the design. I'm so glad I did this. It was a really great experience. 

On holiday we went to a small city we've been last year. At that time I was thinking to take a henna tattoo but I didn't. So this year we were back and I got a henna tattoo: two birds on my wrist! 

Because I'm fickle minded

Whilst in Kerala, India I finally managed to get a henna tattoo on my feet with my Mum. I took quite a while looking through all these beautiful patterns but finally decided on this one. It was quite tickly to get done and I don't really like people touching my feet but I was really happy with the results. The only difficulty was trying to walk back to the hotel on the scorching tarmac as we couldn't put our flipflops back on!

I did think that it would last longer than what it did though, especially considering I'm so pale.

Loooove my henna tattoo 

Seriously it was really quick to get done. I left it on for about 8 hours and then it crumbled off and was an orange color and now its a really deep brown color and super beautiful (:

Was nice!

I got it done when I was 10, it was a beautiful flower~!!

As part of the diversity counsel at work, we had a Diwali Celebration in November 2011. Diwali, a festival of lights, is a Hindu festival. The celebration I attended included different types of cultural foods, an Indian dance exhibition and henna tattoos. It was a beautiful celebration and an amazing experience into another culture.

In France and Croatia, picture is from Croatia :P

Got a nice little pattern on my shoulder, really pretty :) 20/10/2013 Tunisia on the beach

 I had my first henna tattoo my first year in college and it was really pretty for the first 1hr than it faded away

It happened in Doha, Qatar, at a tennis tournament ! :) It was made by a woman who was wearing hijab so I couldn't see her face at all, but I could see her smiling when she looked at my reaction after it was done :)

I got Henna tattoo at an Indian Wedding!

After using Henna to colour my hair when I was in Saudi Arabia, I decided in Portugal at the Expo'98 to finally get a Henna Tattoo. Sorry no pic of the final result.
