Welcome to Jamilah Henna Creations! My name is Jamilah, and I am a henna
artist located in central Connecticut. I have a love of art and have found
a way to channel my creativity into this beautiful ancient tradition.
Henna is a natural dye derived from a plant. It is dried and sifted to
make a fine powder. Henna artist then mix the henna with natural ingredients
like lemon juice, tea or coffee, a little sugar, and then add essential oils
to improve the stain. Some henna artists used pre-mixed henna that may
include other ingredients to give it a longer shelf life or produce a darker
stain. Some of these additional chemical ingredients can be harmful to the
skin. I use only natural fresh ingredients to make my henna paste for the
darkest stain possible. I never use "black henna" which is usually henna
mixed with black hair dye. It can cause serious reactions and scarring in
up to 15% of people that use it.
I am available for individual appointments, bridal henna, girls night out parties,
festivals, fairs, corporate events, sweet sixteen parties and conferences.
Please feel free to browse around the site and contact me with any
questions.
