Gr. 6-12. This slim
volume offers young people a good, practical guide to
do-it-yourself mehndi--the practice of drawing on the body with
henna. More straightforward and better organized than Stephanie
Iris Weiss' Everything You Need to Know about Mehndi, this
begins with a very brief chapter about the history of henna body
art and mentions its cross-cultural, contemporary use. Most of
the book is an informed guide to purchasing, preparing, and
applying henna, including recipes from professional mehndi
studios. The information is presented in a neat, breezy format
that includes checklists and boxed warnings, such as doing a
preliminary patch test to check for allergies. A detailed guide
to symbols (with explanations that may be debatable) and a
resource chapter with addresses and Web sites round out the
volume. Young people wanting a hands-on guide to this growing
art will find this a good starting point.

A stunning guide to
the ultimate fashion statement by the henna body painter to the
stars.
Mehndi, the ancient Indian art of henna design, is the hottest
accessory sported by today's fashion world. Madonna made it
famous in her Ray of Light videos; Liv Tyler showed it off on
the cover of Vanity Fair; and Naomi Campbell flashed it on the
catwalk. Now, Sumita Batra, mehndi artist to the stars, brings
the definitive guide to this 3,000-year-old art form of body
painting.
Among her many clients is Madonna, who asked Sumita Batra to
decorate her hands and face for the 1998 MTV Video Awards
ceremony. The Art of Mehndi delves into the history and
symbolism of the art as well as mehndi in the fashion world of
the 90s, and offers practical instruction on how to make and
apply henna paste. More than 30 original designs, 125 color
photographs, and 150 line drawings make this the must-have guide
for both the fashion conscious and the spiritually conscious.

The book included
gives a nice history of henna including it use in weddings and
medicine as well as its use for hair, perfume and decoration.
Instructions are included for both the pre-made tubes & powders
that must have ingredients added. Though one is included, there
are step-by-step instructions accompanied by b/w illustrations
for making your own cone. It liked it that recipes from
different areas like Pakistan and northern Africa are included.
There are also 8 exercises for learning to draw the designs. The
best thing about this book, is that it shows more designs that
are on body parts other than hands and feet than other books.
