Mehndi Madness

I’ve seen booths at fairs and parties for henna and have never gravitated towards any except for Mehndi Madness.
Accents of traditional eastern décor adorn their spaces, making a authentic feel.
Henna by Krysteen was magically laced upon the back of my hand.
No two designs alike! I was lucky to get in line and receive my unique artwork. Just gorgeous! I was amazed at the precision and mastery Krysteen worked with as she effortlessly illustrated an intricate henna paisley upon my hand. No stencil, no guide, only pure talent and experience.
I have so much respect for henna artists with her level of skill. I can truly say I was blown away by her work.
It was great to talk with Krysteen and dive into her passion for henna and body art.
Wonderful experience– great quality henna– and very essential staff!
*My henna is still vibrant and gorgeous! Wasn’t expecting this location on my body to hold any this long! :)

She does an amazing job and she is super sweet I would get a henna everyday if I could!!!

Really nice :) the lady that did it was nice, it was affordable, didn’t take very long, and looks awesome! I’ve been getting lots of compliments on it. I think one person didn’t realize that it wasn’t permanent and told me I was «very modern».
Thanks for the nice work! :)

Absolutely loved it! Great experience Krysteen was wonderful!

I had seen the Mehndi Madness booth at various locations around Seattle and recently had the opportunity to get a design done for myself! Krysteen was extremely pleasant and fun to talk to. We chatted about her many years of experience and where in the Seattle area people can find her to get work done. She also does special appointments for private events, weddings, showers, and so on.
The design I got along my finger and hand looks awesome. And it’s already been 3 days! The stain has finally set in and it’s nice and dark, just the way I love it. I can’t go anywhere without getting compliments and that’s all due to Krysteen’s lovely work. I’ll keep looking for her booth around town and will be planning to get more henna done by her in the near future.

Mehndi Madness is the BEST henna in the greater Seattle area! Krysteen and her artists are absolute professionals and so talented. They can do any design you want and the selection of designs is huge. You can bring in a photo of a design you like and they can do it for you freehand, no stencils, and it will look just like the photo. Not only do they have the orange-​red henna, but jagua too, which has a blackish-​blue stain like a real tattoo. I look for the Mehndi Madness tent at festivals in Seattle Center and I make sure to stop by. Beautiful work!

The organization I work for has been working with Krysteen for over 13 years! I book about 4 events a year with Mehndi Madness for the youth and teens that come to our recreation programs. We have always been very satisfied with the whole process; Krysteen always replies in a timely manner, clearly communicates costs and needs, arrives on time or early, acts professionally, is very fast and is very friendly and inviting to all. I would recommend her for any of your event needs!
For my wedding, myself and a couple of my bridesmaids went and got henna done. I had Krysteen do henna on my hands and feet. She is a true artist and is able to make your visions come true. She has a very study hand and pays attention to every detail. She always makes it a super fun experience too!

Great job @ Rainier Club on July 27^th for the Torchlight Parade party! Everyone loved the great henna designs. Thank you.

I was at the waterfront today for the Navy ships and the Blue Angels; got a shooting star henna; quick and easy and very nice. I hope to get more or stop by your shop to see other tattoos.
Thanks!

After searching the area and reading reviews about Henna artists, I finally decided on Krysteen to do a Moroccan Henna party for 15 of my friends one evening. Needless to say, I wasn’t disappointed! She is an amazing artist, and all around wonderful person to have over for a party! Krysteen was able to give personalized henna tatoos to 15 people in less than 2 hours — and they were amazing! She goes the «extra mile» to give each individual something special!
A few weeks later I hosted a Hands on Henna class, taught by Krysteen herself. She taught us the basics of Henna application, and everyone had a terrific time! Krysteen is incredibly talented, and personable as well.
If you are looking for a Henna Artist, look no further! You will LOVE Krysteen!

I have a gorgeous henna design on my hand and am absolutely in LOVE with it! Krysteen’s freehand precision is amazing. I didn’t have a specific design in mind I just wanted her to freestyle and: WOW. The speed at which she handles these intricate patterns is fascinating to watch, and of course her conversation is always interesting and fun. Then there is the authentic artistry, elegant and beautiful. You also get careful instructions on how to care for it and make it last longer.
All this week I’ve been showered with wonderful compliments (and grilled with curious questions) about my henna. Krysteen is the best of the best!

Fantastic!
I wanted to have a little design done to accentuate my cool costume for a show and BAM! Krysteen got it done perfectly.
Then, I took my little one back for a tinsel extension and she had it in her hair before my little one knew it and she LOVES it. Much easier and better than letting her really dye her hair pink, she’s got this little streak that shows through and looks great.
If you’re considering a tattoo, Krysteen can do something in Henna or Jagua in the area you’re thinking about and you can ‘try before you buy’ and make sure it’s the right fit for you.
And parties, oh, hell yeah! She can do the amazing cool hands/​feet henna for a whole group if you want her to.
Awesome, pure awesome!

I am finally able to sit and write a review of this lovely space. i went in on a visit to their opening. What a delight.
I had personal time with a charming practitioner, divine cookie. ok, cookies — chocolate chip– homemade from a place nearby and a free intro henna.
I have known henna artists from here at many festivals and have always loved their work.
they are consistent with careful attention and lovely designs. It is up to you or me how we care for this afterwards. I can stretch out the time over a week by not washing dishes, etc. I got many wonderful compliments on my henna.
I will be back…

Without any previous knowledge of henna tattoos (except that I’ve always
admired them) I took a leap of faith and hired Krysteen from Mehndi Madness for my 50^th Birthday party. Krysteen well exceeded my expectations! Her designs were far more eleborate than I thought she’d have time for, and my guests were thrilled with the results. Krysteen fit right in with the crowd and was well prepared, knowledgeable and very professional. While not marketed as «entertainment», Mehndi Madness proved to be an entertaining option to add to the evening’s mix.

I love henna so much! It’s great for «scratching the itch» of tattoos: you don’t need a big commitment, you just have fun with some beautiful designs.
I’ve gotten both henna and jagua from Krysteen from Mehndi Madness. Jagua is similar to henna, but it’s a dark blue paste. You only need to leave on for three hours (which makes me like it so much more than henna!)
When I got jagua done at the Greenlake street fair a few weeks ago, I brought in some Moroccan designs from web — she did an amazing job! I’ve uploaded a pic from when I was waiting for the paste to dry. Which reminds me, because of the location of the jauga, where walking would smear the paste, she let me hang out in her booth until it dried. She was a lot of fun to hang around with… we had deep philosophical discussions about ‘80s hair :)
Krysteen and her «co-​henna-​er» artists are at a lot of festivals and street fairs, so I haven’t gone into to her shop in Greenlake yet. But I did stop by to check it out when they were closed, and it looks like an adorable shop! I can’t wait to get another appointment!
