Barbara was excellent to work with and very talented. Very easy to communicate and coordinate with her. She was wonderful with all the little kiddos and was a great addition to our party. Thank you Barbara!
Barbara’s art was so amazing and her energy/vibe was so chill and relaxing. I will use her again for sure and recommend her to everyone!
Thank you again Barbara. You are an awesome woman!!!
We had a great time! The children were happy with the services they received. Henna Happens "is very mild-mannered and knows what she is doing. Her artistry on the face was excellent. My face was painted, and it was lovely! We will hire Henna Happens again! And she was on time!!! Very reasonable! And joyous to work with.
Barbara was great for our 6yr old's party. She had a good setup, a lot of designs to pick from and she was super friendly and communicative.
An amazing person and talented artist, she created a magical experience for Ellianna's 5th birthday, the girls who were transported to a fantastical magical realm through the artistry of Barbara's facepainting. What a professional & multitalented artist, such a pleasure having you join our family event, you made it a memorable experience for all and look forward to having you come to create your magic again, and again, and again!
Response from Henna Happens:
Thank you for booking me to be part of this special Birthday Party! I enjoyed meeting your family and the kids were so sweet. Ellianna is an amazing little girl, smart, polite, friendly and able to sit still better than many adults I've met! I don't think there's a function for me to post a picture here, but I'll text you a some.
I was rushing to find someone last minute to provide henna before my wedding and not only was Barbara very responsive, but she was also so sweet. I had a wonderful experience with her and I know the ladies at my party did as well! She brought many decorations and just added her own style to our night. It was amazing and I cannot recommend her highly enough!
Response from Henna Happens:
Thank you for your kind message, and especially for giving me the privilege to be part of your special bridal party. I was so happy to be there and see both loving caring sides of the family. If only the whole world could be so joyful. You were a beautiful new bride inside and outside!
Barbara was very easy to work with and got setup seamlessly for our corporate event. Would recommend her to others for this type of event as she was very comfortable with the amount of people and workplace setting! Lots of happy employees were able to receive unique and beautiful henna designs thanks to Barbara.
Looks beautiful!
Barbara was great! On time, friendly, all the party goers were very happy
Barbara was such a pleasure to have at our company holiday party. Her henna tattoo designs are absolutely beautiful!
There was a line of our guests waiting to get a design from Barbara and everyone was so excited to share their completed henna design.
Thank you, Barbara for being so gracious and kind. Your talent was truly appreciated by our employees and guests.

Holiday Party - La Rinconada, December 10, 2022
Heard nothing but great things from our students! Thanks again!
Response from Henna Happens:
What a well organized and fun safe grad night! Thanks for booking me to do henna for a great bunch of teens! See you next year!
If you are looking for a henna artist in the bay area I can not recommend anyone better! We had Barbara for two days, once for my henna and then for our party the next day. She was kind and professional. Easy to talk to. but her work was above and beyond! She had such cool designs and really put in the time and effort to make them all look great. She even left some extra henna and oil if anything needed to be fixed. all our guests loved it and would hands down book with her again!!!
Response from Henna Happens:
Congratulations to you both! Married now! So wonderful. And thank you for the very kind and thoughtful review. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting you (one of the best brides ever) and your warm, loving extended family. What a great bunch of folks!!! Hope to see you again in the future sometime.
Barbara was an awesome addition to our Mother's Blessingway Ceremony. She was respectful, kind, created beautiful Henna designs for the Mama, and even helped us style a photo shoot at the end. Thank you again Barbara!
I've had a very pleasant experience booking Henna Happens! She's very easy to work with, affordable and accommodating. Everyone in our small corporate Diwali celebration were happy with their henna and how it turned out. Her set up is also amazing and she even gives out aftercare cards for those who got their henna done. The henna paste itself was very top quality.
Henna Happens is very professional and a pleasure to work with. Will definitely book her again the next time we need henna at any of our company events!
Our baby shower was a total success, despite the torrential rain this weekend in Berkeley, and part of it was because of Barbara who did great henna work on many of our guests, including myself!
Response from Henna Happens:
It was great to meet such a loving couple and kind caring family! Very nice people to spend some art time with. Thank you for your great safety consciousness. Wow, that rain was really something wasn't it? Thankfully no one was hurt by the weather, so it will just make great stories to tell....
Barbara was great. Very professional and responsible. Also, she does beautiful work. My daughter and her friends loved it.
Henna Happens is a class act all the way! The Henna Artist is a beautiful spirit with talent galore. My experience with her was a great. She was prompt, showed real artistic flare and has a calming and peaceful nature. I loved my time with her!
Barbara was so sweet and talented. Our guests loved their beautiful henna tatoos and I cannot believe how much more beautiful mine is 2 days later!
Barabara was great for our corporate Diwali celebration. She was very personable, arrived early for set up, and she made tattoos very effectively for many people in the time we hired her. We really appreciate her business, and would be interested in hiring her for similar events in the future!
I'm so grateful that I found Barbara and that she was available for our event. Barbara arrived early to make sure she was set up and could answer any questions I had before the event got underway. She always had a smile on her face throughout a long evening, and our guests were all so excited to have the chance to get a beautiful tattoo. Barbara had our guests entranced with the design process and everyone raved about how beautiful the henna was. I heard one guest say "we should have you at all of our events!" and Barbara even stayed later than planned to make sure I got my very own henna tattoo before the end of the evening. I highly recommend Henna Happens, and plan to pass along Barbara's info to all the event planners I know.
The whole party loved the henna!! We had to add another few hours! Super sweet lady and talented...all ages loved the beautiful art!
I treated myself to an adult birthday party with a group of really fun women. Everyone loved their henna tattoo and the artist was fun to talk to as well. I would hire her again for my next event.
Barbara was amazing. Great work all around. Kind, helpful, capable and went above and beyond expectations. Will definitely hire again. Thank you so much for making the event such a success! Everyone was so thrilled with their beautiful Henna! Thank you, Barbara!
Henna Happens was our sole henna tattoo artist during our Diwali Celebration. Barbara was awesome! She was prompt, she responded back very quickly, and she offered a very competitive price. Our employees loved their tattoo designs!
Thank you so much!
Barbara was very accommodating and professional. She did an amazing job at our company event this past Saturday and everyone from small children to adults were very happy with their tattoos. I will definitely hire Barbara for her service again in the future.
We whole-heartedly recommend Henna Happens! Barbara’s tattoos are creative, beautiful and very detailed. She has an amazingly steady hand and is kind and patient, especially with kids. The beauty of her art is that it changes overnight and lasts for up to 3 weeks. Thank you for bringing your talent to our event, Barbara!
Barbara was so personable with my 7 year old daughter and her friends for her birthday party. I couldn’t decide who to use and she was the only one that called me and had wonderful customer service. Besides the service, her work is unbelievable. The art was amazing and the glitter just added to the beauty. My husband and I even got tattoos! I would use her over and over! Thank you Barbara!
We hired Barbara for our Diwali event at work and she did an amazing job. We had over 150 guests and she was quick to get through as many as she could in the two hour event. The designs were freehand and unique. All were beautiful and lasted almost two full weeks.
Thank you for your great work and great personality
Barbara was professional and a pleasure to work with. Her art work was incredibly beautiful. Highly recommend.
Thank you Barbara, you made it so easy for everyone to enjoy The beauty of Heena!! Can't wait until next time to use gigsalad.

Barbara is an amazing artist that added a wonderful flavor to my daughter 16th year Birthday celebration. Teens, as well as adults, enjoyed Henna experience from a beautiful person and an export in her field. I even decided to do Henna on my hand. Almost all the teens, boys and girls, got it done and found this very entertaining.
Barbara's creations are intrique and beautiful. I'm still enjoying mine 2 days later! She free forms the designs from her brilliant mind. She is zen and a please to have at your event!
Henna Happens did such an amazing job at my event and her henna designs are gorgeous. I would recommend her to ANYBODY.
Everything went perfectly and all were extremely happy with the designs. I would certainly use Henna Happens again.
Henna Happens made my birthday party amazing. She is a very patient, talented, and friendly lady. She was good with kids and made everyone happy. THANK YOU!
Barbara was a big hit at our company holiday party. She arrived 30 minutes before the event to set up. She used various henna styles including adding glitter. She even designed a henna tattoo around a temporary tattoo. We'll work with her again in the future.
Barbara was a joy to have for our event. The quote came immediately, and the services were exquisite. Barbara created unique designs for all participants with accents of sparkling glitter. Happy to support such a great artist within the local community.
I'm still getting compliments about the henna you did for me and the girls. It was such a pleasant, fun, and unexpectedly relaxing entertainment to have for a party. I've been raving about it to anyone that asks.
Each of the girls felt special for days afterwards. And, the glitter was the perfect touch.
I highly recommend booking Henna Happens.

Barbara was absolutely wonderful. She was professional, very polite, and easy to schedule. Her art was beautiful, and she was very efficient. Our event was at a college campus, and she put beautiful henna on so many of our students. She had the longest line at our first-year carnival event! We would definitely recommend hiring her for events, and look forward to working with her again in the future.
She was at our Bridal Shower and was able to do most every guest (at least 30) with a beautiful henna. For the younger gals she sprayed a beautiful glitter over them that lasted the entire party. But the beautiful henna remained. The Henna was hand made and smelled fantastic, the use of essential oils was a real treat. She was very professional and well dressed. If you want henna for a party of all ages she is your gal.
What a great experience this was. Barbara is a true artist. She was on time, friendly and a down to earth person. I will for sure recommend her and have her back.
Thank you,
Terri
Response from Henna Happens:
Thank you Terri. I enjoyed doing henna for your daughter's birthday and meeting all of you!
Our artist did some amazing henna art. The only thing that we would advise is that she should not take guests personalities that are not appealing to her personally. She also used that against them by not providing the same level of service to them as she did with other guests. Service paid should be equal to everyone at the event, being that we paid for all our guests to enjoy the art. Not just the ones that she felt "comfortable" with.
