Your First HENNA - Tutorial for Beginners

Henna—a natural dye that temporarily stains the skin— has been creating exquisitely beautiful artwork on the human body for centuries. If you love it like I do, it’s also an exciting and sensible direction for a face painter to branch out. While it takes a lifetime to master, it only takes an afternoon to start!

Here are links to the three online retailers I use most often for henna products:

It is really interesting to know someone from a western culture loving Henna that is a traditional art from India. I just loved your video...very inspiring!

It’s inspiring to see your passion...I’m and Indian living in the Middle East. Indian designs are fuller and more traditional...it’s called “mehendi” and in the Middle East they do such designs the one you showed. I love henna so much..it’s so beautiful and smells so nice as well! Thanks for sharing.

I'm a cake decorator that just got my first Henna kit and I just want to say, this is a lot like piping on a cake💜. if you ever need to practice get some buttercream and just practice with that so you're not wasting your henna🤎 it's about the same consistency 😘also thanks so much for the informative video I'm so excited to get started on my new hobby 🖤🤎♥️

So, I volunteered to do henna art at post prom at my son's high school. I've only ever done traditional face painting, but I'm crafty and figured I would give it a try. Yours is the first video I've watched, and I'm so completely confident I can do this now! You have such enthusiasm and your teaching style is awesome. Thank you!

This is the best tutorial so far I am a 14 year old girl has always been interested in doing Henna on myself since I was eight and watching this tutorial is probably the best thing that could ever do. I bought 24 cones off the Amazon and now I am officially in love. Thank you for teaching me the basics.

Lara! You never cease to amaze me. My niece's mother who has reverted to Islam said that I should get into henna since I'm a "jack of all trades". You've introduced me to the world of henna now and you made it look so easy. Thank you for this very helpful video! I look forward to practicing. The other commenter said to practice with buttercream...I agree since you don't want to waste money until you're ready. Henna is very much like decorating cakes and cookies. I do not envy cookie decorators they are tough!

Just got my first henna tattoo today and I’m obsessed! I let the artist pick the design and she chose one based on what my energy and skin was telling her. When she asked me what color glitter I did the same, let her decide. It came out so beautifully.

I used to get henna when I was a child and I have always loved it and thought it was so beautiful. Recently I decided to buy some henna and give it a whirl. My first attempt was okay, wasn’t perfect so I thought I’d try again today and I followed your video and I love what I’ve created. I attempted to mimic the first design you did with the flower and I’ve added afew extra dots and lines around the outside to make it fit my hand and I’m obsessed!! I wish I could leave a picture to show you. It’s not perfect but it’s a second attempt and practice makes perfect. THANK YOU SO

This is just AWSOME! My cousins Mendhi (a cultural event when people get married) is coming up and I wanted to do the Mendhi (henna) for the little kids! I already have a back-round with henna since it is very cultural to my family. This helped a lot thank you so much!

I've always wanted to try henna and now I'm going to!

[katv]

Thank you. I have henna sitting here waiting to b used but haven’t touched it. I’m going to try your simple (not really to me but...) hand design u did. Not sure the quality. I hope it’s good. I did not know what I was doing when I bought it last September or possibly earlier. Anyway, after I do another project I’ve been putting off I’ll try the henna design and try to post it somewhere for u to see. Fairy Fox, I truly want to thank you for your kind, learning videos and just you being you. It does show thru!!! I am ever so grateful I found your YouTube videos. Keep up the great work and to all your followers the same. Stay safe everyone XO
