Moroccan Henna is a popular tradition in Morocco worn by women of all ages. During special occasions such as Moroccan weddings, holidays and circumcisions, women get henna on their hands and feet. It’s a temporary design applied to your skin in a brownish paste made from powder. The process of staining begins when you apply the henna paste with lemon juice, sugar and essentials oils.

Many women also apply henna to their entire body and/or hair in the hammam once a week.

It has a distinguished smell and needs to be left on the skin to dry for several hours to achieve darker, longer lasting results.

The henna is often used for tattoos.
