Tarquin Singh is a henna artist and teacher.  I got to know Tarquin personally when I was going through cancers and lost my hair.  Tarquin created stunning designs on my head, called henna crown, that made me feel beautiful and empowered during times of uncertainty and vulnerability in my life.  In the podcast, Tarquin talks about how she got involved in henna design, the different venues, and types of henna artistry she offers and the importance of safety with henna.  Listen to this podcast to get a view of a magnificent art form that started in the east and become popular around the world.
