About
The art of henna, practiced since 3400 BCE, is a botanical plant dye process that’s safe for the skin. You’ll learn about paste mixing and coning, and art techniques that range from beginner to intermediate.
This course is perfect for a beginner artist or someone who is interested in learning about the art of henna. We'll discuss the nebulous history of henna and how it appears in modern culture. You'll get a chance to mix your own henna paste and practice the application of henna paste known as coning. Be prepared for things to get a little messy!
Details
Wear comfortable, casual clothing that you don't mind getting stained.
