Amazing, one of the most talented Henna artists we’ve ever had, thank you for coming to our wedding and doing such a great job with everyone’s Henna Tattoos!
We booked a Henna artist for our summer staff event, and it was such a hit! The designs were beautiful and the guests lined up all evening.
The Jagua tattoos looked so real! I loved how dark and bold they turned out—my guests kept asking if it was permanent!
This was one of the most unique additions to our cultural festival. The artist was so talented, and the kids and adults all loved it.
What’s the Difference Between Henna and Jagua?
While both Henna and Jagua are natural, plant-based products used for temporary body art, they offer very different looks and origins:
Henna
- Derived from the dried leaves of the Henna plant (Lawsonia inermis)
- Mixed into a paste with lemon juice, sugar, and essential oils (often lavender)
- Applied as a brown paste that dries on the skin
- Final stain ranges from light orange to deep reddish-brown
- Most vibrant on hands, arms, and feet
- Common in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African cultural traditions
Jagua
- Made from the juice of the Genipa Americana fruit, native to South America
- Comes in a gel form and is applied directly to the skin
- Leaves a stain that develops over 12–24 hours
- Final colour is a rich blue-black, similar in appearance to a real tattoo
- Popular for modern, tribal, and tattoo-style designs
- Used historically by Indigenous peoples for both decorative and medicinal purposes
Both options are completely temporary, lasting 1–2 weeks, and are a safe, fun way to offer personalized body art at any event. Not sure which one to choose? You can even offer both at your event to give guests a variety of styles and tones to pick from!

FAQs
Henna is a reddish-brown paste made from the leaves of the henna plant. The final stain ranges from light orange to deep brown, depending on skin type and placement. Jagua is a gel made from the Genipa fruit and stains the skin a blue-black colour, similar in appearance to a real tattoo.
Both Henna and Jagua tattoos typically last 1 to 2 weeks, depending on skin type, placement, and aftercare. Since both products stain the top layer of the skin, the longer the paste or gel remains on, the deeper and longer-lasting the stain will be. Areas that are frequently washed or rubbed may fade more quickly, so we always recommend avoiding water, soap, or friction in the first 24 hours for best results.

It depends on the detail! Simple designs take around 3–5 minutes, while more intricate pieces may take 8–10 minutes. We adjust the pace to fit your event’s flow.
No, the colour develops gradually. Henna paste stays on the skin for several hours before it’s removed, while Jagua gel is typically removed after about an hour. The full colour appears within 12 to 24 hours.
