: Hello out there, I've just been turned on to this page
: but a lovely customer. I travel to Morocco twice yearly,
: and used to live there, (17 year history in that lovely
: country), and people say I'm a "henna expert." Just had
: my feet and hands done in the lovely, intricate "Marrackshi"
: style--the most intricate and sought after model, also,
: the most costly. The poorer ladies basically "step into
: a henna puddle," and do the same with their hands. My niece
: (Moroccan) just got married there, and of course there
: was the traditional henna party (for women) the day before
: the wedding. She is magnificiently dressed, and placed
: upon a throne of sumptuous cushons, with hands & feet
: extended to the henna artist. It's our job to entertain
: her while this is being done, (she can't move), so it is
: party, party, party--music, female drumming, and sugar,
: lots of it (mint tea, sweets). A very traditional part
: of the wedding ceremony. Of course, not only brides have
: it done. Artemis sells henna with directions for tatooing
