Henna tattoos by nature are NOT permanent, because the ink is drawn on your skin.
If you want it to stay there forever, you'll have to go with tattoo ink, applied by a tattoo artist.

Henna is not permanent because the dye is put on the top of the skin (epidermis)and only reaches the top layers of skin. Permanent tattoos are that way because the artist is putting the ink into the layers of skin or dermis about 1/8 inch deep.
Safe and natural Henna does not hurt because it is on top, but tattoos hurt because it is a puncture wound allowing the ink to be placed inside.
Henna will only last until the skin naturally exfoliates the dyed layers making the design fade away.

You can't make a Henna tattoo perminant but if you're talking about the color of the tattoo that you want, then they can make a tattoo in henna colors.

Before getting a tattoo or permanent make-up, here is what you should know. A tattoo is a mark or design on the skin. A permanent tattoo is meant to last forever. It is made with a needle and colored ink. The needle puts the ink into the skin.
Many colors used in tattoo inks are not approved by the FDA to be used on the skin. Some of these colors are meant for printing or painting cars.
Types of Tattoos
There are many different kinds of tattoos. For example:
* Permanent tattoos: a needle is used to insert colored ink into the skin.
* Permanent make-up: permanent tattoos use a needle to insert colored ink into the skin. It makes it look like make-up, such as eyebrow pencil, lip liner, eyeliner or blush.
* Henna (mehndi) tattoos: a natural plant dye called henna or mehndi is used to stain the skin. This kind of tattoo does not use needles. The color lasts 2 to 3 weeks. Use of henna in tattoos is illegal. Henna is only approved for use as a hair dye. It should not be put on the skin.
* "Sticker" type temporary tattoos: The tattoo design is on a piece of coated paper. It is put on the skin with water. Temporary tattoos last only a few days. Don't use tattoos from other countries. The FDA might not approve the colors. You might be allergic to them.

"henna" is the ink used in a "henna" tattoo that is not permanent. if you mean can you get a mehndi style tattoo, then yes the artist would tattoo you just like anybody else. does that make sense? do a search for mehndi instead of henna.

No. You can get a temporary Henna tattoo, or a permanent standard tattoo.

You would have to print out a henna design and get it done with regular tattoo ink.

My cousin has a tattoo that goes away after 3 years or so. Not sure what it is called, but there is a way to get that.
