• Follow basic hygiene practices, such as sanitizing hands between clients.


• Be mindful of allergies or skin sensitivities; use only the natural henna provided.

• Maintain a friendly, welcoming demeanor and represent the event positively while interacting with attendees, especially families and children.


• Keep your workstation tidy and clean up supplies at the end of your shift or the event.

• Be friendly with strong communication and customer service skills, especially when working with children and families
