Henna is a natural dye made from the leaves of the Henna plant. The powdered leaves are mixed with oils to form a paste. It has been used for centuries across Africa, the Middle East, and Asia for cultural, religious, and celebratory purposes, as well as for dyeing hair. Doing henna is not cultural appropriation — it’s cultural appreciation.

Henna typically lasts 7–14 days, depending on skin type, body location, and aftercare. Areas with thicker skin like the hands and feet can hold the color even longer — around 14–27 days.

Yes! 🌿 We only use 100% natural henna — free from chemicals, PPD, or artificial dyes. It’s completely safe for all skin types. If you have sensitive skin or allergies, we can do a quick patch test before applying.

Henna has deep cultural roots in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and African traditions, where it’s been used for centuries in celebrations, weddings, and rituals. Using henna respectfully — appreciating its history and meaning — is cultural appreciation, not appropriation.
