About
About me:
I've been practicing henna for 17 years. I'm available for all kinds of events! Consider having me at your birthday party, bridal shower, baby shower, or corporate party!
I am fully vaccinated for covid 19!
Woman owned
Availability: Week days after 6pm and most weekends any time.
About my henna product:
I mix the henna paste myself using only natural ingredients. Henna powder is a plant based product and is hypoallergenic. It's mixed with essential oil (tea tree, eucalyptus, or cajeput), lemon juice, and sugar.
Jagua is a natural fruit based stain that leaves a beautiful dark blue color. Ask me about trying it out!
I do NOT offer black henna or red henna. The risk of permanent allergic reaction is too high. I only use my house made henna, no exceptions will be made.

Absolutely wonderful activity for the baby shower I hosted! Lia was kind and great to work with. She is an amazing henna artist and does beautiful work, and is quick!! I highly recommend Lia and plan to use her services for another event in the near future.

We had Desert Henna come out to do my sister-in-laws pregnant belly for her shower. The design was so thoughtful, she was on time, so kind, and her work speaks for itself. It was such a special and unique gift. We loved how knowledgeable she was and that her henna leaves undesirable ingredients out. HIGHLY recommend Desert Henna.

Lia came to do her a at our daughter’s birthday party and she did. It disappoint. She arrived on time, and was able to accommodate each girl’s henna requests with ease. She did such beautiful, intricate designs very quickly! I was expecting that she would need much more time than she actually did. The girls all had a wonderful time and were thrilled with their henna designs!

Lia was the perfect henna artist for our bachelorette trip to Scottsdale. She was incredibly responsive prior to booking and very flexible to our changing itinerary.
Not to mention is is an amazing artist, we all walked away from the trip in love with our designs and wished we had had more done!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
All events (birthday, bridal, baby shower, corporate parties, etc) are $80-$100/hr depending on the size of the party.
Individual designs typically range from $10-$40+
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I make sure the client knows what to wear and what is necessary to take care of the henna. I take you through the care process step by step so that you know how to make your design last as long as possible.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been doing henna for 17 years. I've worked for some of the top artists in the state and am now working under my own business. I've been a standalone artist now for 7 years.
