I don’t see henna tattoos as being unsafe
I don’t see henna tattoos as being unsafe, as long as it isn’t “black henna” or as long as the children aren’t allergic to color additives…but is it worth the possible reactions if a child does prove to be allergic and doesn’t know it?
Children are more allergic to their surroundings now more than ever…peanuts, pets, preservatives, color additives, fragrances, and the list goes on…and SO MANY children have to carry EPI-pens in case of anaphylaxis due to an allergic reaction.
You could always call each parent and ask them about their child’s known allergies, but that doesn’t guarantee that a child isn’t allergic, it just means that they don’t know if they are allergic (unless a parent has taken the time to test their child for allergies).
I hope that this has helped in some way :)..also, check out the internet for resources about the safety of henna and temporary tattoos.
