Because, my little pussycat, you haven't figured out how to turn the
lot upside down and make your pleasure your dissertation! Every day
I'm stunned at how many dissertations there are in henna!
Thousands! Somewhere, there's a dissertation on the women who
hennaed their hair in England during the Victorian era ............
and the gradual progression of Orientalism in the characterization of
henna use in the west, or the discourse of modernity and hair dye
between 1920 and 1090 in popular women's magazines and cosmetology
textbooks. Mentions of bridal henna in Persian poetry between 1200
and 1700? Sweet angels, its immense!
