🌿 HENNA FAQS 🌿

WHAT IS HENNA?
All natural body art made from the leaves of the henna plant.

HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
It depends how long you leave the paste on to develope but typically 1-2 weeks.

WHAT IS IN MY HENNA MIX?
I use certified organic henna powder, cane sugar, essential oils and filtered water.

HOW DO YOU REMOVE PASTE?
Do not rinse with water! Flake off paste by rubbing with hand or scraping off with old gift card. Make sure to dispose of dried paste properly.

WHY IS MY STAIN SO LIGHT?
Right after removal of paste, stain will be bright pumpkin orange. This is normal! It takes 48 hours for stain to reach darkest shade of brown.

WHAT IS THE BEST HENNA AFTERCARE?
Apply your favorite natural body oil to design before and after shower or swimming. Avoid soaking and exfoliating.

AM I AVAILABLE FOR PARTIES?
Yes! Book a henna artist for your next gathering. Whether that includes 3 of your besties in pajamas or 50 family members at a birthday celebration
or guests at the grand opening of your business...

HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN A HENNA ARTIST?
I'm on my 9th year serving Southeast Texas!
I started offering henna shortly after opening Stellar in 2017.

🍄 Mushie Pins 🍄

I'm the type of person who likes to add a sticker or some bling everywhere I possibly can. That's why bead embroidery pins are one of my favorite items to make. They are basically sparkly 3D stickers you can put just about anywhere ✨️
