This art form is mostly known as mehndi throughout Asia, and India is often credited for popularising it in present day. Henna is a symbol of joy in many religions, including Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism and Sikhism.
Henna is not explicitly referenced anywhere else in the Bible. The etymology of the word kopher is not clear; some connect it to a hypothesized root meaning ‘to be reddish-brown’, which would be linguistic evidence that the use of henna for body art was known to the ancient Israelites.
Henna is for everyone regardless of your age, skin color, religious beliefs etc. Before henna became part of traditions and different cultures, it was used mainly for its amazing medical benefits for your skin, hair, nails and even internally, and it’s still used for those purposes.
I get this question a lot, and the short answer is NO, it’s not offensive to get henna if your culture hasn’t been using it for thousands of years! I honestly cannot think of a single situation in which a henna application could be relevantly viewed as disrespectful, aside from if the design itself was intended to be.
