: : I just had a henna tattoo done in Mexico. It's a dark black
color
: and was applied with a bottle that had a tip like a ball point
pen.
: After it dried, there was nothing to flake off. It look pretty
good
: after a week. Now I'm wondering what I actually got. Does anyone
: have any info on this kind of tattoo? Is it henna or something
else?

: This wasn´t henna,you got!!!!
: I think you got a "body painting!.Or the artist worked with tattoo
: ink.
: But I heard also,that the black death past is mixed very thin and
is
: left on the skin.
: Next time ask the artist whats in the past!!!!!!
: IF this past was mixed with henna,harmfull PPD´s were in the
: past!!!!!!!!
: See the warnings at the forum.
: Erfan

YIKES. I didn't ask questions because of the language barrier but
assumed because it said "henna" it was safe. DUMB! Is there
anywhere to get more extensive information on PPD's? I checked the
forum and black henna warning page. Are health risks from PPD's
cumulative or from a single exposure? Now that we're back from
Mexico, almost a week after the tattoo, I have pneumonia and wonder
if this repiratory infection is related? My son also got a "henna"
tattoo. He seems fine but now I'm worried.
