It was my first time meeting the family of farmers who harvest the henna found in our Earth Henna tattoo kits. You have likely not experienced “desert dry” until you’ve been to the outer reaches of the Sahara, aka The Great Desert. A hot wind was blowing like crazy, making it nearly impossible to see, …
I think what I like most about henna is how it makes me feel. I think it’s fairly safe to say that human beings love to decorate their bodies. Whether it’s with gems and jewels, make-up, tattoos and piercings, face-painting and airbrushing, scarification, or coloring our hair purple or orange, people on this planet …

For those who may not be familiar with the history and cultural practices surrounding henna tattoos in India, it’s all about love. The henna plant is believed to be infused with the positive power of the …
I’m a writer, so I love words. I can write a word I love on my body with henna, and there it will stay for 7–10 days. Like ineffable, which means incapable of being described with words, like life! I’m also an author, an art dealer, and a freelance museum curator. Creating henna tattoo kits is …
Drumroll, please. Introducing our beautifully repackaged Henna Kit for Kids! In the last three years, we went on a repackaging adventure. It had suddenly dawned on us that, after fifteen years, our kits needed a face lift (yes, we’re a little slow sometimes).
