Welcome to Body & Soul Henna. Mehndi is the traditional art of adorning the body with a paste made from the leaves of the henna plant. Tea, lemon, and oil are added to the paste to enhance the color and longevity of the design. The tradition of Mehndi originated in the Middle East and Northern Africa. It has been practiced for more than 5,000 years, applied for both artistic expression and ceremonial use. Now becoming popular in the western world, Mehndi is a rising trend among men and women alike. Mehndi is an opportunity to celebrate the senses and is a relaxing, temporary, pain free alternative to tattooing.

My name is Karen DeGuire and I have been practicing the art of Mehndi henna tattoos in the Saint Louis area for over 14 years. My services are perfect for parties, weddings, baby showers, and birthdays.
