Summary: excellent layout and indepth information and designs
Review: I found this book to be one of very few books that had such detailed history and background information on the ancient art. The book layout was excellent and well planned which really helps a beginner like myself to adjust withou getting confused. The sections are easy to understand and follow and is great for people who are new to this art. The mixture of designs is good you get a good balance of traditional mixed with modern the kit was tricky but if you follow the instructions works!! But buy this book for it's rich knowledge and by the way the cover is wow!!! and probably the only one with an asian model on it. My congrats to the wonderful author of this great piece of work and are there any other titles by her???

Summary: Good Book, Horrible Kit!!
Review: The book I found was well informative and was good for practicing, but the kit was a mess. The instructions were very ambiguous and the paste came out frothy and light. Not only was the paste horrible, but the cone aplicator tore because the plastic was too thin and the paste was all clogy. But other than that, the book was great, but i wouldn't waste my money

Summary: Good with art, bad if you bought the kit.
Review: This henna book had some of the best mehndi designs for hands I have seen. Most books give you beautiful pictures but don't take the time to explain each design. This book does. The hand art is a must for people starting out. The only bad thing about this book and the kit it comes with is it has the smallest amount of henna I have seen in any kit. 5 grams isn't much at all. Plus, the solution to mix with the henna is a dry crystalized form that doesn't appear to have all natural ingredients. I think this is bad since Mehndi is a purely natural body art. The mehndi oil included in the kit is the oddest smelling of any kit I have bought too. If you want illustrations buy the book but if you want henna buy the Return to Tribal Body Adornment Kit.
