Henna

My job in Wildwood in the summer-time, is as a henna tattoo artist. I've been doing it now for about 3 years at various locations. I draw little doodles that you pick out of a book of flash, on a part of your body, with this stuff called henna. Selling is a huge part, and I'm very good at my job.

Henna originated somewhere in India. Its traditionally caled Mendi and is used as a good luck charm of sorts at weddings. It is a paste made from the henna plant and mixed with oils and lemon juice etc. When you place it on your skin for long periods of time (longer then the hour that most tourists do) it will produde a redish brown stain that lasts for about 10 days.

These are a few good ones that i have photos of. The only original design is the guns.

I've done some really beautifully detailed stuff. Some really weird stuff. (That i wish I had pictures of) I meet amazing people, and make alot of money. Its been long hours,(up to 16 a day) but I wouldn't trade the memories for the world.
