: I noticed that on About.com, allergies, there was a notice that
people could have terrible allergic reactions to henna ... and said
the reports were coming out of beach communities in California
(like, ... DUH....) So I sent the person who runs the site this: "How
to tell if your "black henna" or henna is safe in 3 questions or
less."
----Great job! These are the situations that I really worry about,
when someone with "authority" goes around talking about henna without
knowing the truth. Thanks for doing us all a favor. It would be
great if you could post your emails to About.com for us to copy and
send to other people who write about henna.
---The rant is great! I will post it to my website.
---As I mentioned in my email to you, I did a class today and the
first question in the Q&A period was about black henna. I felt that
I conveyed the difference between the two products and informed them
of the risks. There were about 22 people in the class so I hopefully
increased the percentage of people in the world who know the dangers.
