Top 5 Most Popular Henna Tattoo Designs

As a henna artist, my clients will sometimes bring up photos of henna tattoo designs they want done that are by other henna artists or henna designs I have done in the past and most of the time the work they show me I have seen before. They will usually pull up images via Pinterest or Google Images . So I thought it would be fun to compile a list of the 5 most popular henna tattoo designs. I am also somewhat of a social science enthusiast so I know that a big factor that goes into what people like and what catches their eye is not only the henna design, but also the photo styling i.e. colors, placement, surroundings. It’s fascinating to me when I see the same images time and time again as I think to myself “what is it about this photo in particular that people love?” I have a drawing that I did a few years back that has really been very popular and about 10 ladies have had it tattooed on them (that I know of) – you can read more about that very popular tattoo design here as well as other tattoos I have designed . *Note – I will be giving proper credit to these lovely henna artists when I know whom to give credit to. If there is no credit given, it’s just because I’m unaware of who did it so PLEASE let me know if you know who created it! I will be sure to make the proper corrections.

The Henna Sleeve

I would say about 25% of client coming into the studio request a full henna tattoo sleeve design. These are lovely and end up coming out quite nice. And most of the time clients are using this to test out a tattoo they would like to have and using henna to envision having that much tattoo coverage on their skin. Henna is a great way to test out tattoo designs.

I have done this same floral henna tattoo on the arm, hand, chest, and back. ivermectin sheep drench for chickens Originally this design was created as a lower back henna tattoo.

The Shoulder Cap Tattoo

This design is by the incomparable Darcy Vasudev of Henna Lounge and I see it many times from clients as a henna tattoo inspiration. (Side note – I’ve been getting my organic henna supplies from Darcy’s shop Henna Guru for over 6 years and I can’t say enough positive things about the customer service and quality of product!) A shoulder henna design is very popular because it can be a hidden place to get henna if you have a job that doesn’t allow for visible tattoos but it is also the perfect place to highlight your henna design with a sleeveless dress, swimsuit, or tank top.

The Glove Style Henna Design

Many of my clients request this style – the henna glove hand tattoo. What is important to do with this type of design is the symmetrical point that ends midway down the hand and the henna finger details where it looks like rings. To make this design really POP – get a lovely manicure with a pink or red polish color. oh yes!

The Asymmetrical Henna Hand Design

And of course, if you’ve been a henna artist for more than a day, you have come across this design by Henna By Divya. It seems to have everything a client is looking for – intricacy, movement, finger details, and floral elements so can you blame people for choosing this design time and time again? I certainly can’t! Great capture with the proper manicure, delicate pinky ring, and flawless application of henna. Well done Divya!

Henna Huddle 2017 Review

by: Jade Johnson – Artist for Kelly Caroline Henna Art

Two-day Henna Huddle 2017 workshop included 4 classes and one evening talk. Nic Tharpa Cartier is not a rookie to the henna scene. He has been in the industry for 20 years, and has taught classes and workshops

worldwide, and currently works as a tattoo artist. There were 12 women + Nic. Very small and

intimate, there was a pot luck lunch and plenty of henna to go around! The women were super

supportive and authentic. What I found most welcoming was that there where artist of all

different stories. I learned about hennas deep roots. Mauritius is an island located on the

southeast coast; their henna style constructed with basic shapes, yet very extravagant. We also

looked at henna styles in the following counties of Mali, Niger, Senegal and Egypt. I can’t wait

to explore future workshops and classes!

Traditional Henna Techniques: Hand extruded & Tape Resist.

Tape Resist is an old style, utilizing straight lines, squares and geometric shapes. This style is

created with a material called leokoplast. The Artist manipulates the material using a razor blade

millimeter’s above the client’s skin. This technique will give you very sharp, extremely fine and

fiercely intricate motifs. Once the leokoplast is placed the artist will then smear henna over the

design & then remove the strips of leokoplast. This is complex because it allows the artist to

have fun with positive and negative spaces.

Translate Resist Designs

When recreating a design, it’s easiest to work in layers and follow the

contour of the motifs. Double lines will give your piece volumes of elegance. موقع رهانات

Modern western henna especially in the urban areas artist create very full, or scattered designs.

As a henna artist it’s extremely important to create the design as it appears oppose to creating

what your brain tells you what to see. Although; modern henna is folk art, meaning there no

convention to commit too.

“Tattoo it until it looks like a thing.” – Nic

Many artists beat themselves up over perfection; however, the level of perfection has minimal importance. In the

western world henna artist take their time.

Design Issues That Appear

Body part switch: When confronted with a client that would like a palm design on their upper

arm. The artist needs to evaluate the new placement area, and think “what is the overall shape? I

want the design to be.” Once the artist has a placement they can then pull motifs from the palm

design to complement the upper arm design.

Working with clients can be challenging. Particularly when the artist is presented with an

extravagant tattoo the client found on Pinterest. With all the hope in the world the artist can

duplicate. I learned a simple, friendly response to such a request, and that is “I can use this as an

inspiration.” I feel inspired saying it!

Michigan Henna Huddle 2017

Henna tattoos need to flow, and an easy way to keep the flow is create dark and white spaces

equal. Sometimes this can be tricky because a simple design is a simple design. قمار اون لاين Over

manipulation will give you a tattoo that isn’t flattering.

Clients will tell you they like unicorns, eyeballs, clouds, lizards etc. and would like to

incorporate it all into one design. It’s OK to ask them to condense! الرهانات As an artist pull part elements

to tastefully combine into a tattoo.

Dumb to Pretty

Being a henna artist, you are going to get tattoo request that seem to come out the wood work.

Request like pawprints, hearts, butterflies etc. How do you make those shapes pretty, and

incorporate a mehndi style? The answer is simple. Start with enlarging the basic outline of the

pawprint, and then work the design into it. Moroccan is the easiest style to fill an outline with,

for it looks beautiful and extravagant.

Want to know more? Read this quick history of Henna:

Henna is an all natural dye for the skin. Henna is extracted from the Lawsonia inermis tree by drying and grinding leaves and stems. The greenish powder, when mixed with an lemon juice, makes a temporary red, brown, or orange design on a porous surface. Indian families use henna in ritual skin painting, called Mehndi, for birth and marriage celebrations. Arabic and Turkish cultures also use henna. Western cultures have adopted henna to make temporary tattoos and organic hair dye. The Lawsonia inermis grows in hot, arid regions like North Africa and India. For centuries, people ground the foliage of the plant into a powder to dye cloth and skin. The strong pigment, lawsone, actually temporarily stains the skin. The dye is a dark pigment, but does not alter the surface permanently.
