i found this site and i said in mind that most of omani girls put henna in their hands in speacial occations..

Many women using henna is an Islamic alternative to Western nail polish. In fact, most women just don't feel fully dressed for the holidays or for weddings without it. Henna is often appied to the fingertips just to color the fingernails.
and i found lots of talented young ladies compete in making elaborate designs for brides..

here r some of the designs i found..

Applying of Henna's pretty common during marriage cermonies, in Hindu weddings.

What a coincidence? :bored:

henna is very common...and most girls love it but i personally dont...it does look nice for the first few days but after that when it starts fading the coor turns orange and the smell is too much..so i usually dont put henna..and plus my husband isnt fond of it

I can't stand henna. :os
I haven't worn any in more than 5 years and hopefully I won't ever again.

Great idea Naughty & I really like henna especially the Emarty henna & very simpl designes...but I don't have time to put it alot or I get boared easily & becom esnoOpy to see how it will look like after washing it:p . But this is a tip from expert don't wash henna when u want to remove it, let it till it dry then put cream or oil so it's gonna get dark colour;) .

This is ahenna design:) , it seems Indian.

CoOl u can print it out & give it to your mum or sis to use it;) .

No i dont want to give it to my mom, coz she already put henna last week, and i dont have sisters to give it to them
So i will give it to my love (future wife) i think it will look GREAT on her hands:)

that's so sweet of you amoOr.. but what if your wife doesn't like henna?

Am not much into Hinna but I dont hate hinna either, Like El7ilwa I love the UAE style very simple and I always use Black hinna (I dont think it is really hinna:sweat: )

Assalamu alikum..

A Great topic Miss Naughty.. I really like to see Henna on people and I like it on me only at the first 2 days then when it starts to lighten in color i hate it :os

Though my husband loves it!

I like very simple hinna, and i like applying it on the back of the hand, cause it doesnt look very bad when the color starts fading.

well..its up to her then, as for me i'm gonna tell her that i love to see henna on your hand, and she have all the right to do it or not..if she put that means she loves me and she doesnt want to say no for me..and if she didnt put then that means that she loves me but not that much;)

LOL

For some reason i just can;t seem to like the smell of Heena, it really makes me like puking. It has been like over 5 years since i last put heena not till when i got married where it was like a must thing. Plus becuase my husband loves it than I guess thats one of the reasons i would have it done to me.

I don't think it's a MUST to put it on when you get married. It's just a tradition and most people (if not all) seem to follow it.


I can't stand it, so I don't think I'll be wearing any.. :duh:

Oh, I so disagree with you Phoenix!!! I simply love it, but not all ways of putting it.

I dont like it as an alternative for nail polish, but some of those artsy hand designs are beautiful. Plus, you can be innovative with it, like get a design around your ankle or belly button, or lower back etc.

I wish it was a part of my culture, but sadly it isnt. I still get it done sometimes, but people are like :duh: .

i m ok with it in fact i prefer the black one (sudani) i really like it but i only like to put jest a little bit of it most of the time :gap:

Nice on girls... but i just can't stand the smell :barf:

If u dont stand it then dont put it bro:D ;)

I still don't see how they can "force" someone to wear Henna if they don't want to. Theyre my hands so I'll do what I want with them! :angre:

an excellent topic,

one of the most beautiful features of arabian ladies is Hena..

i love ding hena for my wife.such a romantic idea; u can design whatever u want, but be careful draw nicely otherwise you won't get a second chance..

here are some of nice designs

here is another one.

I don't mind the smell of henna. I think it's normal. But I like how it looks on the hand.. I wouldn't mind putting henna when I get married, but I'll have to ask my husband whether he likes it or not..

Well, in some Omani families it's a must for them to wear henna and that's a fact. I have a friend who recently got married and whose family believe in "henna is a sign that she got married".. but she did not follow the rule, because she never liked henna. She ended up hearing too many stories on the day she got married that she was forced to get married to that man, or that she didn't want to get married :duh: you see how far this could reach!!

Henna is usually worn in occasions like weddings and all.. happy occasions. So when the bride, herself, does not wear the henna, the people around think that she's unhappy about what she's doing..

I really like 7enna..i adore it..i only apply it on the back of my hands..i like simple designs..mostly UAE style..it's the best..anyhow..i can't stand the smell of 7enna..it makes me dizzy..that's the only thing i hate about 7enna..

I Love Henna :D
If my husband will not like it then i think he would suffer for the rest of his life!
I didnt have it in my hand for a very long time but i would love putting it any time soon!

Tell us about the famous henna makers in oman, those who love henna where do you usually go to have it done nicely with new designs!

I don't think it's a MUST to put it on when you get married.

Well, you didn't! :hmm:

AHAHAHAHAHA....
umm .. MISS NAUGHTY AAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAH :XD::XD:



ehm :)
anyways :)
:XD:
... anyways ... i Love henna ...for my hair and hands :P
yes henna is nice for the hair =D

i loooooove henna.. ive been doing it for over 5 years now & everytime i apply it on a customer i always then apply it to myself :D
OF COURSE henna is a must for "my" wedding.

Henna .... :heart::heart::heart:

I absoltely love henna!!!

I Love Henna! :love:
I wish to put some on right now...get Pen_it_Black to do one of her detailed drawings on my hand! It would look wicked and beautiful!!!

yah i luv henna and so as the smell!

i don't like their smell.. and the way the look before applying :dev:
bt i find the art it self fascinating :)

I havent put it on my hands since I was like 7 or 8.. Something like thaat..

I'm more into puting the black one on my arms, ankles or like lower back..
Using it to see how the different designs look like, or to get other ideas out of it ;p

& Yess im into Tattoos, But I dont have one! ;) lool

Daamn I sounded stupid back in 2003.. and the font was pink :P

Anyways, as I mentioned previously I don't stand the smell of Henna makes me dizzy. I'm planning on putting it on this eid inshalah .
