Temporary Tattoos

This day and age, more and more people are deciding to get permanent tattoos, leaving their mark of choice on their skin. If the tattoo is applied by an experienced artist, the risk involved will be minimal. As sad as it is however, many people who get tattoos end up going to studios that use unsanitary equipment - resulting in infections or other serious problems.

Years ago, temporary tattoos were found in quarter machines, bubble gum wrappers, and even toy sections of the local store. Children loved to get these temporary tattoos, as they presented a way for children to have a tattoo - one that was completely safe and would wash off. Now days, even adults are beginning to think that this is the right idea. The temporary tattoos of today are no longer just for children, as most last a long time - making them perfect for adults.

Tatoo Techniques

The technique with which the pigments are brought underneath the skin has not undergone any significant change during the course of history. There are, however, depending on the state of development and degree of inventiveness, great variations in the quality. And then there are the craft aspects: the application of the correct amount of pigment; correct penetration, not too deep, without leaving scars, damaging muscles, rupturing arteries or chipping the bones. Even primitive cultures whose practices involve the piercing of the cheeks - a technique used sometimes with Maori facial tatooing - have developed astonishing tatooing techniques.

Temporary Henna Tatoos

Henna is a paste which has been used for centuries to create tatoos (artwork) on the body. The paste when applied to the skin, temporarily etches on to the deeper skin layers and develops into an orange-greenish or black stain. Henna can be applied anywhere on the body and superb delicate patterns can be created.

Henna has a rich history in the Middle Eastern and Indian cultures. It has always been used by women to create exquisite art designs on their hands and feet during special ceremonies like weddings, anniversaries etc.
