Unforgetable Zakynthos

An Ilkeston youngster has been left permanently scarred after an allergic reaction to a henna tattoo. Chloe Nicholson, nine, was on holiday in Zante, Greece with parents Rachel and Adam when she persuaded her parents to let her have the large tribal style tattoo on her upper arm.

Within 24 hours of getting the ink based design, which is supposed to last 14 days, Chloe's arm had started to blister.

Specialists have said there is no guarantee that the infection won't scar.
