In ancient times, henna was used because of its natural cooling and therapeutic properties, and it is believed that the henna ‘art of henna’ and the practice have been around for more than 5000 years. According to legend, henna imparts its cooling properties until its dye or stain remains in the body. Mehndi has been associated with beauty and cosmetics since the time of Queen Cleopatra, who is known for using mehndi to adorn herself.
