About Henna Caravan

Founded in 1997 by Jessica McQueen, Henna Caravan is dedicated to maintaining the integrity of Mehndi, a form of ancient body decoration that was rapidly dying out in popular cultures around the world.

We import only the freshest, natural henna powder available and hand mix the paste ourselves with lemon juice and fragrant aromatherapy grade essential oils for each appointment. Our product contains NO chemical dyes, preservatives or additives and is generally safe for use during pregnancy and with children. Consult your doctor if you have specific concerns.

Henna is NOT black! 'Black henna' may have dangerous dyes or chemicals added that can cause permanent scarring or internal damage.

Henna Caravan's traveling team of highly trained artists provide a memorable addition to any occasion. Our personalized designs are hand drawn allowing us to create something unique for everyone. From traditional, to fanciful, to contemporary, our designs allow you to express yourself.

Henna Caravan can accommodate any size event from the most discerning corporate affair to the small and intimate party in your home, public events with attendance over 100,000 or sindividual appointments.

We have grown to include a team of up to 13 wonderful and talented women. A proud family business with several teams of mothers, daughters, sisters, and 3 sets of cousins all working together to provide a pampering experience for your next event. We carry liability insurance for your ease of mind for every event we participate in.
