If you are looking for a beautiful henna tattoo in Agadir, far from the scams and the crude tattoos of the souks, you are in the right place. Henna is part of Moroccan and Amazigh traditions, both an aesthetic marker and a ritual tied to life's important moments: weddings, festivals and family celebrations. We invite you to meet Fatima, a young hennaya with remarkable talent, whom we chose for the delicacy and precision of her designs. Passionate about drawing for as long as she can remember, she discovered henna at 13 and began practising on her mother and sisters. At 21, she decided to make it her profession and set up as an independent hennaya. Today, she shares her skill with simplicity and generosity. The experience begins over a coffee for a moment of conversation with Fatima. She explains what henna is, its natural composition, the occasions on which it is used in Morocco, as well as the pitfalls to avoid. She also takes the chance to answer all your questions and share a few elements of local culture. You then choose your designs: two small tattoos or one larger one per person. Fatima creates them freehand, with great precision and an eye for detail that makes all the difference. During the session, she also gives you her tips for making your henna tattoo last as long as possible. A special moment of exchange with an independent young woman, to discover a living skill and learn more about Amazigh traditions, all while leaving with an elegant, temporary henna tattoo.

HOW TO PREPARE WELL FOR YOUR DAY
Please specify the date and time slot of your choice at the time of booking.
Exfoliated skin holds henna better: you can book a traditional hammam experience and have the henna done in the same place right after (in which case a €5 discount per person will be applied).
Have clean, dry skin: no cream, oil or make-up before the application. The henna needs to adhere directly to the skin. Smooth skin gives a sharper design, but if you wax or shave the area, ideally do it 24 hours beforehand to avoid irritation.
If you opt for a tattoo on the feet, bring open sandals (flip-flop style).
