When I sorted out my old photos I finally encountered these photos of which I did my first time henna tattoo by a friend tattoo artist Bong.

A henna tattoo is literally a temporary tattoo which is a non-permanent image on the skin resembling a tattoo which will last for at least two to three weeks on the skin surface then eventually fades.  A henna tattoo also can either be drawn, air brushed, painted as a form of body painting.  Henna tattoo originated as an Asian tradition which came from a henna plant and it also known as Mehndi.

An all time favorite TLC shows of mine were Miami Ink, LA Ink , NY Ink which were reality shows about tattoo artists and their day-to-day activity for the sake of tattooing as an art a few years back ago when I was still liking watching TV shows.

On the process and finished originally designed dragon henna tattoo. 
I am so "desperate" to have a permanent tattoo and needle being use with a great original dragon design by a well-accomplished tattoo artist.  My frustration started in this regard since my siblings and mom would not like me or allow me to have one and so instead of having a permanent tattoo I decided to have a non-permanent instead.

I am always fascinated by any forms of mystical dragon tattoo designs which for me do look great on my skin on that photo that is why I chose it as a design on my right limb.

When commissioning a henna tattoo it is best to browse the tattoo artist's sample designs or drawings in order to choose from the one you really like or let the tattoo artist create an original design based on your imaginary preferences through description.  Also consider the price and your availability or time to spent on this tattoo session.  Just relax and do not be afraid of that needle being stick into your skin which is not really painful unlike a permanent tattoo.

Today, I am thinking of considering to have another henna tattoo of my liking since my last one was way back two years ago.  Also Tattoo Sleeves are sleek.
