Specialties
Hibiscus Henna stands out as a unique business in Southern Oregon, having brought the exotic art of Jagua Henna tattoos from the tropical paradise of Hawaii. As one of the few professional Jagua Henna tattoo artists in the state, we offer a truly distinctive and organic experience for our clients.
Our exclusive Jagua Henna gel is derived from fruit, providing a natural and long-lasting temporary tattoo that lasts an average of 7 to 14 days. Perfect for events, weddings, parties, or private appointments, Hibiscus Henna brings a fresh and innovative approach to body art that caters to all occasions and preferences.
Jagua Henna, made from the Genipa Americana fruit, produces a stunning navy to dark blue stain, making it a delightful alternative to traditional henna.
What makes us truly unique is our ability to provide "tattoo-try-ons," allowing clients to test out a design before committing to a permanent tattoo. This inventive concept empowers individuals to explore their personal style and make informed decisions about their body art.
Hibiscus Henna looks forward to connecting with fellow henna enthusiasts and art lovers this season, sharing our passion for beauty and creativity with each unique design.
History
Established in 2023.
Hibiscus Henna has been operating in Oregon since early 2023, but our journey began in May of this year: 2024. The inspiration behind our business came from our founder's passion for henna art, which started in 2016. She began her journey with traditional henna and honed her skills over the years. However, it was during her time in Maui, Hawaii in 2021 that she discovered Jagua Henna, an exotic and rare form of temporary tattoo art made from fruit.
Fascinated by the unique beauty of Jagua Henna and its South American roots, our founder decided to bring this exceptional art form to Oregon. After months of preparation, Hibiscus Henna was born, offering clients a one-of-a-kind experience that combines the traditional henna art with the exotic charm of Jagua Henna. Our founder's dedication to learning, exploring, and bringing something new to the community has allowed Hibiscus Henna to create stunning, unique designs that reflect each individual's sense of style and personality.
