 I wanted my first henna tattoo when I was ten years old. A seemingly Indian lady was making them at Underground Atlanta. I was SO fascinated and I've always wanted to get one over the years. Heck, I wanted to get one at that moment, but I was young with no cash and I doubt my mom would've ever given me money to get it done. It doesn't seem to be popular outside of the the cultures listed above, so it's been really difficult to find. Either way, I CAN'T WAIT to get a henna tattoo . . . I googled it and found some examples. Check them out!
