I've worked as a henna professional and educator for a decade, and am the artist behind the most celebrated henna boutique in Baltimore, Maryland. One of the most common questions that's asked both by my clients and henna students is, "Where did henna come from?" -- opening the door for rich conversation about cultural exchange and appreciation. I'm excited to share about the vibrant and varied history of henna with the learners on Outschool as it will undoubtedly surprise and delight them to see just how far and wide this ancient art has reached!
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
