: I have noticed that henna patterns on sunburned skin are very
: soothing, as the henna is cooling.
Reminds me of an amusing moment at Sirius Rising. Someone's leg
touched the charcoal grill and they were slightly burned. A cry was
heard "Quick - henna that leg!".
I commented how thoughtful this was, to put cooling henna on a burn.
But the person concerned had to admit that her thought had been
purely that the burned leg would be hotter than usual, so the henna
would take better!
We agreed that perhaps there is such a thing as too much henna. :-)
