Henna , Mehandi tattoos are not permanent in nature and are easily removed with soap and water or oil-based creams and are intended to last a few days. These tattoos are normally applied to the skin using water to transport the design to the surface of the skin. As these Tatoos are Henna/Mehandi based, which is applied generally on the hands and the feet, the designs made by Henna Tattoos are intricate and beautiful and go on their own in a couple of days.

Henna is powdered and mixed with tea or coffee, lemon juice (so that the dye is released easily) and sugar to make a viscous paste which is then applied on the intended parts of the body. The more you leave the paste on the skin the more it will last. Usually, most of the designs last for about two weeks. Henna has tendency to fade in a fixed pattern. It fades from dark brown to light orange. The chief advantage of putting temporary tattoos like Henna or Mehndi is that you can get rid of them after a few days and again come up with a new pattern or style.
