Adorn Your Temple
Henna is a plant which naturally dyes the skin or hair. Favored by Cleopatra and Nefertiti, recorded of in the bible and the Talmud, henna has been used for thousands of years for beauty, for ceremony, and for it's healing and protective qualities.
Henna is applied in fine detail as a paste which later reveals a rich stain. The more layers of skin, the richer color you will get and the longer the stain will last. Hands and feet take henna the best and are traditional body parts for the artwork. Arms and legs work as well, faces and chests tend to get a much lighter and less reliable stain. Henna works best on clean, oil-free skin.

About the Artist
My name is Jada Moon. I am a multi-media artist in the gritty City of Destiny (Tacoma, Washington). As a henna artist I’ve been inspired by traditional Indian mendhi, art nouveau, Source, the Cosmos, indigenous and primitive elements, plants and nature, architecture and more. I enjoy connecting with people over henna and have been continually happy about the vast spectrum of people I get to share this gift with. A brilliant spectrum of all kinds of people love henna. Thanks to this. I meet many unique clients and am invited to help embellish a sparkling array of wonderful parties and events.
