A. Pure henna is safe for almost everyone. Allergies to henna are very rare. If you're female it's almost certain to be completely safe for you. If you're under about 6 years old, there's a very tiny chance that henna could be dangerous for you. If you have G6PD deficiency, it's not recommended to get henna other than small applications and then only as an adult. It's a very rare condition and affects males twice as often as females, and some cultures have higher rates of this deficiency than others. Henna may be very dangerous to infants with this condition, but less so for adults.
So almost for sure you will be fine getting pure henna, but if you're a Kurdish male who's anemic you may want to talk to a doc first. If you're a white or hispanic woman, there's very little chance you would have this condition. True allergies to henna are very rare but possible, and they bring on symptoms similar to pet or food allergies. You can patch test for them.
Black henna is not henna at all, and not safe at all. It's hair dye and it can seriously mess you up when put on your skin. Like permanent scars and liver damage.

Hi can someone help me with a Kurdish tradition?
Q. Hi I have been dating a Kurdish girl for 4months and so far so good!
Last week her parents invited me over to dinner and I was really nervous but all went well. I was just looking around their living room and saw a picture of a old woman. I asked my girlfriend who she was cause she had a very interesting and mysterious look and it turns out it was her grandmother who has passed away years ago. I didnt want to be insensitive so i closed the subject but the woman had tatooes over hands and one on her face which looked like a flame. I would really like to know what it is. Has anyone got a clue??
what does it symbolise? (in general)
Thanks Ipek at last someone who knows.
Cheers!

A. Well, tattoo's are a very traditional part of Middle Eastern culture as well as Far Eastern.
Traditional tattoo's are done in fear of evil eyes, superstitious beliefs i.e., power to protect against bad luck or illnesses or to have a baby, more milk to feed the babies etc..
Although it is against Muslim beliefs, Kurds, Arabs, Syrians,some Gypsy ( traveler) ethnic tribes - all from the Mesopotamian culture- also used tattoo's to express feelings or thoughts like fear, love, emotional pain, where expression with words was considered shameful and rude, especially for women.
"Dak" or "Dek" - pronounced as Dakh /Dekh ( tattoo in Kurdish) is also used by elderly Kurdish women for those purposes or -as some claims- only for decoration purposes.
It is not a commonly performed act anymore since traditions are dying due to globalization and modernization.
