Black Henna Compensation Claim Information
Henna tattoos are a popular choice for people on holiday or looking for a stylish temporary tattoo to complete their look. While natural henna is perfectly safe, black henna is dangerous and, here in the UK, is actually illegal. That doesn’t stop non-reputable businesses, and those who don’t carefully view their range of products, from stocking black henna.
Can I make a Black Henna negligence claim?
Whether you’ve bought black henna in the UK and applied it yourself, or had the temporary tattoo done from a ‘professional’, you will be able to make a claim for black henna compensation. The black paste used in these “neutral henna” tattoos can contain powerful and toxic chemicals. These chemicals are illegal to use on the skin in Europe and the UK. As such, it is no surprise that many of these reactions occur abroad, in countries like Egypt and India.
What are the Common Causes of Road Traffic Collisions?
Each road traffic accident may have a completely different cause; some are simply accidents, whereas others can be due to drunk or drug driving. In many cases, an accident will be caused by one, or more, party’s negligence while driving. This can include not paying attention, making illegal moves or not alerting other drivers to your movement on the road. If you believe you have been involved in an RTA that is not your fault, contact our team to start your road traffic accident claim today.
