Henna by Arooj is a Calgary bridal and event mehndi studio run by Arooj Hadi, who has been applying henna for 13+ years. I create custom freehand designs — Arabic-style florals with Mughal-inspired detail — using 100% organic henna I mix by hand, so the stain deepens to a rich, long-lasting colour with no chemicals. Based in NE Calgary, I work from my studio and travel to brides and events across the city.

Questions Answered
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you travel for weddings and events?
Yes. Henna by Arooj works from a NE Calgary studio and travels to brides and event venues across Calgary for bridal and large-group bookings.
How long does natural henna last?
Natural henna applied by Henna by Arooj typically lasts 10+ days, reaching its darkest colour 24–48 hours after application.
Is your henna chemical-free?
Yes. Every design uses 100% organic homemade henna — never chemical “black” henna, which can irritate skin and fade quickly.
