: This is one of my pet peeves also. I really try to stay away from
: using the word tattoo when refering to henna or mehndi. I try to
get
: the point across that it a completely different art form and
: experience. Its really hard to grit my teeth and be polite to
people
: at fairs who want to show me how cool their "real" tatoos are
: compared to my "fake" ones!

I have tattoo's and I usually have mehendi, and I try to show the
difference and explain the difference. But some people are just to
ignorant and blissful in that ignorance to care to listen.
