Her fee is totally reasonable and absolutely worth it! She showed up to our party on time and set up quickly. Everyone wanted to get a henna design. Kids and adults loved it! She does the designs fairly quickly and they look great! She has a book of samples but you can also find a design online and she is able to go off of something you show her. She does all of her designs free hand. She also brought face paint for the little ones! I highly recommend Aubra for her talent and professionalism. She truly was a pleasure to work with! I will be calling her again!
