The Danger of Black Henna Tattoos: A Cautionary Tale from Bali

An Australian mother has issued a warning to travelers about the hidden dangers of black henna tattoos after her nine-year-old daughter suffered a severe allergic reaction, leading to scarring. Kaitlyn Salter from Melbourne shared her experience, highlighting the risks of getting a tattoo in Bali in a shop that didn't prioritize safety and hygiene.

During a visit to Kuta beach, Salter's daughter, Imogen, opted for a temporary henna tattoo. Initially, Imogen chose a turtle design, but another artist persuaded her to switch to a wolf design. The second artist began drawing the new design without warning, setting off a chain of events that turned a fun holiday activity into a nightmare.

Two days later, Imogen's arm blistered and became painful. Despite applying antiseptic cream and later using antibiotics and antihistamines, her condition worsened. The reaction resulted in a painful scar that required frequent doctor's visits and additional medication. Salter noted that the first doctor in Bali thought the reaction would clear up, but it worsened upon their return to Melbourne, necessitating stronger antibiotics and burn cream.

Salter regrets not knowing about the potential dangers of black henna tattoos. She shared their story in a Facebook group for Bali tourists, warning others about the severe allergic reactions that can occur. Her post received numerous comments from others who had experienced similar issues with black henna tattoos.

Unlike natural henna, which is typically chocolate brown or mahogany, black henna contains paraphenylenediamine (PPD), a chemical used in permanent hair dye. PPD can cause allergic reactions in up to one in five people, making it a risky choice for temporary tattoos.

Salter's story underscores the importance of being cautious when considering a tattoo in Bali. Choosing the best tattoo studio in Bali can help ensure safety and avoid harmful reactions. This cautionary tale highlights the need for awareness and careful consideration when opting for temporary henna tattoos.

https://bit.ly/42uMOax - 🚢 A municipal cyber security officer, Jeremy Froias, was arrested recently for secretly installing a camera in a cruise ship bathroom. He is accused of collecting footage of around 150 people, including 40 minors, on the Royal Caribbean Cruise ship Harmony of the Seas. #CyberSecurity #PrivacyInvasion 📸 The FBI has charged Froias with video voyeurism and attempted possession of child exploitation material. The agency believes Froias primarily targeted cruise ship passengers who used a specific public bathroom on the ship between April 30 and May 1, 2023. #FBI #ChildSafety 📱 Evidence from the Wi-Fi camera footage appears to show Froias installing it and linking it to his phone. His activities came to light when a vigilant passenger noticed the camera and alerted the crew. Froias confessed to installing the camera during an interview on May 1. #DigitalSafety #CruiseShip 🚔 Froias was arrested in Puerto Rico and appeared for a detention hearing. A federal judge set a $25,000 bond and release conditions that included wearing an electronic monitoring device, surrendering his passport, and not having unsupervised contact with minors. #LawEnforcement #ChildProtection 🏢 Froias, who had been an employee of Kissimmee, Florida, since 2004, had his employment terminated following the incident. His attorney stated that no formal charges have been filed as of yet. #EmploymentLaw #WorkplaceEthics 🚢 Royal Caribbean confirmed the incident aboard the Harmony of the Seas, stating that local and federal law enforcement were promptly notified, and the involved guest was removed from the ship. However, passengers complained about not being informed about the hidden camera. #CruiseShipSafety #RoyalCaribbean 👥 The FBI has provided a form for potential victims of Froias to fill out. They may be eligible for certain services, restitution, and rights under federal and/or state law. Inquiries about the case can be sent to Harmonycruisevictims@fbi.gov. #VictimSupport #JusticeForVictims 📹 A recent study cited by an Audacy article highlights the concerning frequency of hidden camera sightings in vacation rentals, with one in four respondents reporting such a discovery.
