Henna derives from a plant known as Lawsonia Inermis, whose leaves are dried and crushed to make a powder with natural dying properties. The application of henna has four distinct benefits (“the four C’s”), as it cools, conditions, cleanses, and colors the skin. Henna is also commonly applied to hair — on which it is has a similar effect — by millions in Asia and Africa, where it is inexpensive and readily available, and helps cool the scalp in the hot summer months.

The henna plant grows in hot climates and can be found in countries such as Iran, Pakistan, Syria, Morocco, Yemen, Egypt, Uganda, Tanzania, Afghanistan, Senegal, Kenya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, and India. It is known by many names, including Henne, Al-Khanna, Jamaica Mignonette, Egyptian Privet, and Smooth Lawsonia. The art of applying henna is referred to as ‘henna’ and ‘mehndi’, depending on which culture or country one comes from.
