Sydney’s mother has shared horror pictures on her son’s social media who received a henna tattoo while on vacation in Bali.
The affected mother shared four images to the popular Facebook group ‘Bali Bogans’ detailing how her son received the tattoo in Seminyak, before it seems to explode in red, a high reaction to the place of art work seven days later.
“My son had a henna tattoo on Seminyak beach and had this reaction,” he wrote next to his son’s arm’s pictures.
“It happened about a week later once we returned home, thank you. It may not happen to you but I just wanted to share anyway.”
The woman said that the reaction could simply be the skin type of her child, but before she had not had a reaction like this. “
“He is spreading, but he has no pain and incredibly itching,” he added.
Hundreds of followers commented on the pictures, where the young man has been prescribed, Antibiotics and now taking antihistamine.
“I and many people I know I have had them without a reaction … my daughter, however, had a reaction when I was young,” he said.
“He was prescribed in Cortisone when we returned to Australia … He cured very well, but he left a white tattoo marking for a month or so.
“Unfortunately, I don’t think he has ever seen a positive post about Henna’s tattoos in Bali,” another added.
“The reactions like this are commonly unfortunately.”
What are Henna’s tattoos?
Henna’s tattoo is a temporary body decoration form similar to a tattoo, although the color of natural henna is usually somewhere between red, orange, brown or burgundy and ink does not penetrate the skin.
In recent years, Henna’s tattoos have become very popular for tourists, especially in destinations such as South -East Asian.
These tattoos are fast, easy, painless and temporary and can last for 12 days to a couple of months.
According to the Western Australian Health Department, Henna’s tattoos application process involves a possible risk of spreading the infection, and operators are recommended to follow standard precautions.
While most of the operators use natural henna, some opt for “black henna” that is different. Natural henna is a brown-orange pigment and does not cause chemical burns or allergic reactions. Black henna, however, is synthetic and contains paraphhenylene (PPD) and other unknown chemicals that can cause irritation and allergic reactions, often require medicines to erase.
“I am an idiot … Don’t risk me”
In 2022, a mother who felt as a “idiot” published on the same “Bali Bogans” Facebook page, so she revealed the horrible injuries that her son had suffered from Henna’s tattoos.
The mother said she was expecting the experience and pictures of her son from her red arm and inflamed to deter others who would not take the “risk” while on vacation on Bali.
The image showed the lines of Henna’s tattoo, which was made two weeks after the original request.
Undouined mother said that she had previously seen a warning about Henna’s reactions, but she did not think of anything while her son was getting one in Bali.
“Even when I was seeing my son did, he set aside,” he admitted.
“So just an update for anyone who already knows it or not. Don’t risk it.”
In 2019, Catriona Rownree shared her friend’s experience with a Henna Dodiva tattoo.
“When you travel to Bali, everyone tells you what you need to do and not to do. Add it to your list of” No “… Do not get a henna tattoo, unless you can be safe 100 percent of henna,” he said.
“My ten -year -old son had what we thought was a” henna tattoo “our last day in Bali and it wasn’t until a week later, after we had returned home, which began to return red, itching, serving and sore.”
“It was not henna! We believe that these were mixed black hair dyes … God knows what. It may have been mixed with gasoline or kerosene, we have learned it.”
He said that after a course in Prednisolona and Cortisona, he was no longer itching or red, but his son would probably have scars in the coming years.
And it is not only Bali where these cases of horror of henna infections occur.
A mother in the United Kingdom in 2023 shared pictures of how her seven -year -old daughter stayed with “Scars for Life” for a Henna tattoo that she got on vacation in Turkey.
Kirsty Newton, 37, let her daughter Matilda get the temporary ink while she was on family vacation in an all -inclusive hotel. Matilda chose a beautiful butterfly design 3cm high, which the artist outlined on his right forearm.
At first, Matilda was more than her new ink. But when the family of four returned home in England, butterfly print turned red and itchy.
Newton made two trips to the chemist for help. When the raised burning began to break and bleed, he headed to Matilda at the hospital.
Doctors confirmed that Matilda had an allergic reaction to paraphhenylendiaminamine (PPD), a chemical that is commonly found in dark hair dyes. Unlike natural henna, which tends to be brown or color mahogany, black henna is stained with PPD.
Matilda was prescribed anti-allergic tablets, steroids and antibiotic creams, but his mother fears that the medication will never completely cure Matilda’s granted skin.
“The hospital said it was an allergic reaction to the black henna used and that it will not be able to use the hair dye when it is old.
After the incident, Newton published photos of the Matilda butterfly on social media, as others, to warn parents about the dangers of black henna.
