Mehndi information needed please

[schnapps]

Hi

Can anyone please give me, or point me in the direction of, some basic information about mehndi? For example who uses it, why, how etc!

I know nothing about it, but this has some information that looks as if it might be useful.

WigWamBam, that's just what I needed. I'd done a search but only found information about how to do it, rather than it's origins, so thank you very muchly
