Elizabeth is the sweetest person, so easy going, we had a great conversation. Â I met her at a Neiman Marcus event. I thought it would take time. Â She was quick, the design was perfect. I watched her do others and noticed she chose designs that fit each individual. I would hire her any time. Many people came up to me complimenting the Henna design on my hand. Â :) Â Â FUN......
Review Source:Too funny -- just before my appointment, I was remarking to my bf that I hoped I wouldn't fall asleep on my henna like Cece did in New Girl. Turns out, LA Henna DID do the henna as seen on New Girl. Small world! :)
Cass and I were both invited to have henna done by Elizabeth in her lovely home. As she usually contracts her henna services for parties by the hour, she worked with impressive speed and attention to detail. During our brief session (only 10-15 minutes each!), we chatted about Elizabeth's 10-year experience with henna and how she mixes her own with natural ingredients including eucalyptus oil (which, by the way, smells amazing). She may joke about lacking creativity, but it couldn't be further from the truth. After years of doodling henna-like patterns in her free time, she thinks quickly on her feet and the artwork simply flows. We picked our desired locations (right wrist/forearm for both of us), an approximate size, and she took it from there.
If you haven't had henna done before (and I hadn't really - just the crap on Venice Boardwalk), the process is simple. After the henna paste is applied, it slowly hardens over time - as quickly as 20 minutes outdoors and closer to an hour if indoors. When it gets dark and crusty, the paste will naturally flake off. You can expedite the process by rubbing gently. The initial stain is orange (and I mean BRIGHT orange - see photos) but it darkens within the first 24 hours or so. And according to Elizabeth, LA Henna's henna will last anywhere from 10 days to two weeks, much longer than places that use synthetic (potentially dangerous!) dye.
Awesome new "ink" aside, Elizabeth was just a pleasure to meet. She is very down to earth and genuinely passionate about her art. It shows in her sincerity and enthusiasm -- she even went the extra mile to add glitter to Cass's design (girl loves her bling!).
With reasonable rates, beautiful art, and friendly service, I'll definitely be calling up LA Henna for my next party! Be sure to check out LA Henna for your henna needs :)
When women get any kind of services (e.g. hair, nail, massage, etc), the customer service is always one of the key factors whether we are going back for more service the next time.
When we walk into Elizabeth's home, she has big smile on her face. She gives us a very pleasant vibe. She is very knowledgeable about Henna Tattoo. She answers all our questions. We love it when she tells us about how much she loves to draw when she was young and how she started her career.
This is my first time getting a Henna Tattoo. She is very nice to walk me through the process. She explains to me the ingredients of her paste. The eucalyptus oil smells unbelievable. I can smell the special fragrance while she is painting. It feels good on my skin too. She is super creative!. She doesn't need to see or follow any patterns. She just paint it from her heart. I love all the details pattern she paint for me. Henna Tattoo is really her passion!!
Not only she is creative, she is super fast!! It only takes her 10-15 minutes to finish. That is amazing! She even puts some "bling bling" on my Henna Tattoo. That definitely makes me super happy!!
The paste drys up quickly. I listen to Elizabeth's advise and leave it on overnight so that the color would be darker and last longer. I am so glad that Elizabeth suggests us to put the Henna Tattoo on our forearm because I can enjoy my Henna Tattoo all the time! Like right now while I am typing this review~ :D
It is definitely a very wonderful experience getting my FIRST Henna Tattoo. Thank you Elizabeth from LA Henna putting a BIG SMILE on my face!!
You surely know how to make a woman happy~
I hired LA Henna based on their claims on their website that they are the best and have done a lot of celebrity events. They said they do freeform and are excellent. I had booked them for my boss. The woman showed up and told my boss that she "wasn't very creative". Not a good thing to hear when you hire an ARTIST. Then, she could only do a design on the hand, not on the arm at all, and it was the same tattoo for everyone. The tattoos were so bad on some that they immediately washed it off. This company was almost twice as much as other companies! Also, when the woman had gotten lost on the way to the party, she called me and got really rude because she was lost. She later apologized, but that doesn't matter to me as much as the poor quality of the service! I do not recommend at all.
Review Source:The creativity behind LA Henna makes their designs truly beautiful and elegant. The professionalism is unmatched and I would recommend them for any event. This is a fun activity that can be enjoyed by girls, young ladies and women. I have worked with LA Henna and plan to continue utilizing their service. The henna used is all natural and stays for two weeks which is a huge plus.
I highly recommend them to anyone looking for something fun & enjoyable to add to their party!
