A little something I put together in homage of Henna and the art of applying Henna, as I have always been fond and intrigued by it. The background music is by Salif Keita, entitled 'Cono'. *Recorded from Vinyl so apologies for the slight noise* And If you dont know about Henna – Mehndi or henna is a kind of dye which gives special features to the beauty of a woman when it is designed in an artistic way. It is generally used in Asian & African countries. Henna is extracted from a type of tree named Lawsonia. When the leaves are dried and mixed with boiling water it stains the skin with a special colour. Henna is also used as an Ayurvedic medicine in the form of lotions & ointment. It is an antiseptic, anti-irritant, astringents, antibacterials, antifungals, antispasmodics, antipyretics , topical sunscreens, antiperspirants. It is also used as a treatment for sunburn & eczema, in the prevention & masking of foot odour, as a skin moisturizer & conditioner, and as a treatment for hair loss.
