Beschrijving
Immerse yourself in Swahili culture with a henna, headwrap, and facial class in Shela Village. Learn about the cultural significance of henna, try different headwrap styles, and more.
Begin your experience in the quiet lanes of Shela Village, where you’ll be welcomed into a shaded courtyard or home setting. Your hosts introduce the cultural meaning of henna in Swahili life—used for celebrations, weddings, and rites of passage—before showing you how henna leaves are dried, ground, and mixed naturally.
Learn basic application techniques and receive a simple henna design, applied with care and explanation. Continue with a demonstration of traditional Swahili headwrap styling, where you’ll try different wraps and learn how patterns and colors are chosen.
To complete the beauty ritual, your hosts demonstrate how to prepare a natural coconut oil facial scrub, explaining its skincare benefits and everyday use along the coast. There’s time for conversation, photos, and cultural exchange throughout the class.
