In reply to: About.com story on Moroccan henna posted by Kenzi on June 6, 2001 at 04:14:50:

I haven't read the link yet, but just wanted to comment that the
henna I got in Morocco gave me a strange reaction- it was in
Marrakech, so it was very ~how do I put this~ hustler stlye, you
know? Anyhow, I had the strangest reaction, my skin all around the
henna turned reddish and it was stinging just a bit. I asked the girl
what all was in it and she said only lemon juice, but I wasn't
believing that. I know my skin!
peace,
txilar

: Just saw this story posted at About.com. It is about the author's
: henna experience in Morocco. Pretty basic stuff but nice photos of
: the process. The strange part was she said she had an allergic
: reaction, she thinks to the iodine they put in the henna. It
sounds
: like she assumed but didn't ask. Knowing henna in Morocco it was
: probably something more nasty than iodine that was added to the
: henna. She also wrongly assumed that they put the lemon-sugar on
to
: ease her allergic reaction. Fortifies my belief that she was
making
: a lot of assumptions.
