We do not accept debit or credit cards for henna body art services, and likely never will. Cash is our preferred method of payment, but we accept personal or business checks on a case by case basis, for hourly appointments.
Hourly Appointment Rate:
Our rates start at $60 per artist, per hour. Rates can range as high as $75 per hour, depending on accessories and/or props needed. There is a one hour minimum, with additional time being charged in 15 minute increments. You must book at least one week in advance, though two is preferred. We may require a 10-25% *deposit to book certain dates, like holiday weekends. *Deposits, if you cancel the event, are non-refundable.
Sadly, due to higher transportation costs, there will be an additional travel charge (starting at $10) for areas outside Boulder County.
Weekends and evening appointments fill up quickly over the summer, so if you are planning on henna artists for your event, please do not wait until the last minute to make arrangements.
When contacting us for a booking, please tell us as much about your event as possible. We'll need to know the general size and duration of your event and how many people (approximately) you foresee wanting to get hennaed. Will they want a few large complex henna designs or many smaller ones? Will there be children there, or family pets? Is it outdoors? Will we need to bring our own tables, lights or tent? Anything else at all you think important, ask!
Please note that the number of artists and amount of time that we recommend for your event is based on the amount of people who will be hennaed and the relative complexity of the designs required. All that other information helps us determine what else to bring to make everyone more comfortable.
Per-Piece Rate:
If you are looking for ‘per-piece’ charges instead of hourly, you can try and catch us by attending some of our Upcoming Events. Cash only please, as we do not accept checks, debit or credit cards at public events.
We have a huge festival book full of designs that start at $5 for simple ones, and many fall in the $10 - $20 range. These prices are only in affect at public festivals, fairs or appearances. You cannot hire us to come to your house for one $10 design. Get a bunch of friends together and chip in for a henna party!
If you wish to book us for your event, or if you have any further questions, please contact Carrie at anachronista @ gmail.com or call (303)641-0477 and leave a detailed message if I do not pick up right away. I do my best to return calls on the same day, but it can be 24 hours if you call while we are working at an event.
These prices are subject to change without notice, and we reserve the right to refuse appointments. If we are not able to accommodate you, we will do our best to help you find an alternative artist for your needs.
