The same applies if used as hair dye: the result will be between mahogany and red depending on the natural base of your hair. Any other color may be due to the addition of chemical components.

For example, in the case of black henna, the color is due to the addition of a chemical called PPD, which is very harmful for the skin.

So it is called applying henna paste on the skin. However, henna is not a tattoo, but simply a temporary skin decoration. The design is fading as the skin will exfoliate (this process may take 7 to 10 days) because no needles are used to force the pigment into the skin and permanent tattoos.

Henna has an acid type which stains the cells of the skin, hair and nails. It takes some time for the acid adheres to the cells, so the dough must remain in contact with the skin for 3-5 hours to function well.

It is extremely unusual for someone to have any adverse to natural henna paste (natural products only) reaction, since it is one of the safest cosmetics that have been used throughout history.

If any allergic reaction occurs when used, it is usually due not to henna itself, but added some pigment to make color or black something that natural henna powder mixed to create the dough.
