Photograph @massimobassanoTrue LOVE STORY.I cannot say the name of the lady of these hands. She is a woman whom opens her heart telling me stories of her divorce, love and pain. A difficult life foe a Muslim woman but still full of hopes for the life she has in front. Her hands with henna tattoo show that she is married...because tattoo on the front is more married women, tattoo on the back side are for girls ready for marriage. She could divorce because her husband did not mention he was already married. But after that, her life was ruined forever. A divorced woman cannot have a new love...except that someone requires her specifically. Her father could not believe that someone want his divorced daughter. Bit it happened and now she is happy with the tattoo on the right side. That's a true Love Story. The name henna also refers to the dye prepared from the plant and the art of temporary tattooing based on those dyes (see also mehndi). Henna has been used since antiquity to dye skin, hair and fingernails, as well as fabrics including silk, wool and leather. The name is used in other skin and hair dyes, such as black henna and neutral henna, neither of which is derived from the henna plant.Historically, henna was used for cosmetic purposes in Ancient Egypt or Carthage, as well as other parts of North Africa, the Horn of Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and South Asia. Bridal henna nights remain an important custom in many of these areas, particularly among traditional families.#Lamu #Kenya #Swahili #Tattoo #Love
