I think its depend on how clean is the henna.

I think it depends on the henna and on if your body is allergic to it. I had a tattoo in 1998 and it scarred my skin for 2 years. I think you are using the green henna, but most people in Bali just use hair dye. I won't take any risks with it anymore, so I hope I won't be too grey.

Hi, you should have done an allergy test before having the black henna tattoo (hair dye) ... some people get hurt very bad... in the future do the allergy test before using any new chemicals ... good luck :)

Hello, henna for tattoos is mixed with some chemicals to get the max. color out of it.. but henna for hair must be pure henna (grained dried henna leaves) ... some people mix it with oils or an egg or any other natural material to improve hair texture and scull health... but henna for tattoo is mixed with materials that can damage hair... best of luck

henna is a natural material and can never cause any reaction but the "stuff" that are added to it are hrmfull ones
