One of my husband's co-workers had us over recently and I discovered his wife is quite talented at doing henna. She offered to do it for me, and I couldn't pass it up! I've seen people use stencils to apply the designs, but mine pictured above was done completely free-hand! Super impressive if you ask me.
This is a favorite fashion and beauty choice in this region for decorating hands and feet. Women usually have this done around weddings or other special occasions. It comes in different colors ranging from a reddish brown to black. Some people (men and women) use the reddish henna dye in their hair - I've been told it helps hair grow and keeps it from falling out.
