Say NO to Black Henna
Black PPD Body Art can harm you!

    
PPD black body art, commonly referred to as “black henna” can do the following:

· Cause burning

· Cause blisters

· Cause scarring

· It is a known carcinogen

· It is a transdermal toxin

· It is associated with bladder cancer, asthma and other health problems

· Causes sensitization to hair dye, sunblock, cosmetics, black clothing and some medications

· PPD reactions are often delayed and take anywhere from 3-7 days to manifest.

Seek medical attention if you have had a reaction to PPD black body art.  Subsequent allergic reactions can put your life in jeopardy.

BE SAFE – USE ONLY NATURAL RED HENNA
