: Myself, my husband and my brother got a henna tattoo yesterday. We
: left the paste on for an hour and it was very black. They said it
: lasts like 2 weeks. We started reading up on this and had no idea
it
: might be dangerous!

It is not only dangerous, it is illegal to apply henna with black hair
dye mixed in, or black hair dye in place of henna directly to the
skin. See: http://www.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/cos-tatt.html


I called the shop (Musical & Comedy Shop in
: Myrtle Beach, SC, and the cashier claimed it's 100% natural and had
: never caused a reaction.

B*llsh*t. Do drug dealers ever tell you they're selling something
that can hurt you? Would cigarettes have labels if they hadn't been
forced to? Don't get me started. It's called denial, and it's not a
river in Egypt.

I am supposed to call back tonight to talk
: to the owner. I am going to ask what the ingredients are (though
: they probably don't know) and ask for the name of the manufacturer.

Make certain the shopkeeper has seen:

http://reverndbunny.sphosting.com/mediappd.htm
http://reverndbunny.sphosting.com/ppdburns.html
as well as the FDA site. The shopkeeper can be sued for damages
caused by this sh*t being used on his premesis. If you get him to
stop, you're doing HIM a favor! Put these in his HANDS and make sure
he sees them ... you will save MANY people scarring and pain!

If you start getting a reaction (you have between a 8% chance and an
85% chance, depending on which doctor you talk to).... email me for
the article in the Courtlandt Forum Dermatology Journal to take to
your doctor so you can get accurate diagnosis and appropriate
treatment. Scarring sucks.
