Henna is a plant-based dye derived from the pigment in henna tree leaves. To harness the pigment, the leaves are dried, ground into a fine powder, and blended with oil or water to create a paste. It’s this paste that’s then piped onto the skin to create a henna tattoo.

Yes. There are recipes for making your own henna paste, but to avoid risk and error, we recommend buying a henna kit from a reputable retailer, or having your henna tattoo done by a professional henna tattoo artist.

Natural henna tattoos typically last 1–3 weeks depending on body placement (hands and feet last longest), skin type, and aftercare. Avoiding soaking in water and applying coconut or olive oil can extend the life of the design.

Natural henna is brown or olive in colour and is generally safe to use, but we always recommend doing a patch test first, to see how your skin responds to it. Be careful: black henna (also known as PPD) is a chemical version of henna; it is banned for use on the skin in some countries, because it can burn and damage the skin.

Henna dye tends to last 2 weeks before it starts to fade. However, the longer you leave your newly applied henna on your skin before washing, the more time it has to be absorbed, and the longer it lasts.
