michael.wishart@svha.org.auHanna is a plant extract commonly used in Indian cultural events. Hand tattooing with henna is seen in festivities and Im sure the only impact good hand hygiene will have is the fading off, of the staining in the henna tattoos.

Hi Louisa,
Its a temporary tattoo and shouldnt impact on hand hygiene as its used as a skin dye (Im assuming that youre referring to someone who has the actual henna staining already completed on their hands and not someone who is in the process of having the henna skin staining done in that instance, itll not work with ABHRs as the hennas normally a paste thats left to dry for a couple of hours. Mix that with ABHR and itll be a big dark mess).
You may wish to have a look at this WA guide as well http://www.public.health.wa.gov.au/cproot/1479/2/Henna_Tattooing.pdf

Henna is like a tattoo, only not permanent. Leaves from the henna tree are used to prepare the henna. Its like using a colour and drawing a design on ones hands. Its very popular at the time of weddings in my culture. If tattoos are permissible and do not interfere with hand hygiene, then henna is the same.
Kind regards,
