Traditionally, the art of henna application has been a predominantly female practice. This probably accounts for the lack of documented information regarding its historical use; it was not considered necessary for women to read or write in a lot of the regions where henna has long been popular until quite recently in historical terms. Instead, the local knowledge and skills required to carry out this traditional form of body art have been passed down from mother to daughter over time, for generations, going back far longer than anyone can remember.
To date, the oldest documented use of henna for cosmetic purposes comes from Ancient Egypt some 5000 years ago, where henna was used to decoratively stain the hands & feet (including nails) and to colour and condition the hair. Traces of henna have been found on the nails of mummified Pharaohs, and there is further evidence in illustrative form. It is widely thought that having hennaed hands and feet in Ancient Egypt signified prosperity and promoted well-being.
Since Ancient Egyptian times the use of henna as a cosmetic product has spread throughout the Eastern World. Traditionally, henna has also been used as a medicinal treatment for a wide range of ailments, including headaches & eczema. Though henna does contain antibacterial and cooling properties, today it is not the recommended ‘cure all’ that it once was!
