I got my first henna Apple tattoo last night. As you can see, it looks every bit as ill-advised as you might hope. More tragically, it happened at an office party, not even like a MacWorld event.
But I learned some stuff. The job was done by Renda Dabit of Henna Garden, who has done many, many Apple tattoos in her time. It sounds, in fact, like she’s the henna artist of the Bay Area Mac Community. I brought an iPod for her to use as reference, but she didn’t need it. Masterful work, but could you expect less from a henna artist regularly hired to work Bay Area Apple enthusiast events? I thought not.
On a less hopeful note, please see the picture below, taken hours after the original. Such a shame. I also had my fortune told, and I just have to assume that the shattered Apple bodes ill for next week’s iPhone launch…

In India when we have henna tattoos done, we keep it moist with lemon juice for hours and hours… then when the henna eventually dries up, crusts off and falls off, the “tattoo” below is a nice deep dark solid color.
So not cool…
Haha I have a real one of those :D and its in colour!
