Summary: Balanced and Beautiful
Review: "Mehndi: The Timeless Art of Henna Painting" is a balance between sumptous picture book and inspirational, well-informed text. I find Roome's book to be one that I frequently pick up for inspiration, ideas or quiet reflection. "Mehndi: The Timeless Art of Henna Painting" is a worth while book to purchase whether or not you want a mehndi tattoo because of the beauty, magic and mystery contained within its pages.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great book
Review: "Mehndi" is a great beginners book. It's not quite what we were looking for though. It does have some really nice designs, but I think it has more text than we were hoping for. It's informative for those looking to learn about the art and tradition. This book gives advice about mixing your own henna paste. I give it 5 stars because all in all it's a wonderful book, informative, and the pictures are clear.

Summary: TRULY THE #1 BOOK ON MEHNDI TO DATE!!!!
Review: AFTER READING AND MANY HOURS OF TRYING DIFFERENT METHODS OF THIS ANCIENT METHOD OF TEMPORARY TATTOOING, I FIND THAT MS. ROOME HAS GIVEN THE MOST DETAILED INSTRUCTIONS AND METHODS TO DATE. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK OF ALL FOR NOT ONLY THE BEGINNER, BUT FOR THE MOST PRACTICED HENNA ARTIST. IT IS WELL WORTH THE MONEY.

Summary: From a Beginner
Review: As a complete novice in the art of mendhi, I was very pleased to receive this book. It is well written, very informative on the historical traditions of this art form and beautifully photographed. As complicated as the designs look, Roome guides the reader through practical and simplified instruction, which, in turn, leads to a desire to experiment with one's own ideas. A Mehndi party sounds very appealing. Well done.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Mehndi Art
Review: Being an artist myself, I was very pleased with this book. I like to know the background of whatever I am about to make and this book does just that. It tells the history, and background of where and why Mehndi was done. Not only did it reveal a great history, but it also tells you exactly what kind of Henna Powder to look for when you buy your own. I have nothing but raves for the sources it gives to purchase the finest grade of henna powder. But you will have to read the book to find out where to get it. (I'll give you a hint: it's in Seattle)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great book
Review: graceful and intelectually pleasing-i highly recomend this book. if you are interested in this art what-so-ever you will fall madly in love with it after reading this book! it is beautiful! it shows different designs and tells about the art and its history. full of photographs and illustrations. i own several books on mehndi and this is by far my favourite. if your looking for a clear-cut how-to step by step instructional book this may not be exactly what u r looking for, but i recomend you buy this book anyway, because the information it offers will be of great use in the long run.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very informative
Review: Great pictures and descriptions. A wonderful book for someone that aleady knows a little about Mehndi. (I'm glad I also have a beginner book, though)
