Henna Henna is typically applied during special occasions like weddings and festivals. The design is usually drawn on the palms and feet, where the colour will be the darkest because the skin in those places in the human body contains higher levels of keratin which binds temporarily to lawsone, the colorant of henna. Henna was originally used as a form of decoration mainly for brides.
