About the Art of Mehndi
Mehndi art is the application of henna as a temporary form of skin decoration. With origins in India, Egypt & Morocco, the art of Mehndi creates designs using henna for good fortune, love and prosperity.
The leaf of the Henna plant is dried, ground into a powder and made into a paste that's painted on the skin in ornate & intricate designs. The paste is later removed leaving a stain on the skin and in less than 24 hours you have a beautiful creation which can last from a few days up to three weeks.
Since
henna only stains the top layers of skin, the duration of the stain is determined by body temperature, skin type, body chemistry, lifestyle, where the henna is applied and how well it is taken care of. Mehndi art is temporary and fades as the skin naturally exfoliates.
Usually tougher, less oily skin will hold the stain longer. This makes the palms of the hands and soles of the feet the best place to apply henna.

Mehndi Art with Hazel
Hazel ONLY uses natural, green henna which stains the skin a rich auburn color. Hazel NEVER uses black henna. Stay safe - go green!

Mehndi art is fun and it's pain-free. No needles are used. Henna is applied on the skin similar to cake decorating. Sometimes it actually tickles! Henna is even safe for pregnant bellies.

Hazel's designs are based on traditional Indian, Middle Eastern and North African culture. A large array of wildlife, Celtic and modern designs are also available. Since Hazel's Mehndi art is always applied completely free-hand she can most likely recreate your favorite design. Have a photo or sketch handy.
