Hen•na•pre•neur

/’henəprəprəˈnər/ noun
An artist who offers professional henna services with ethical, sustainable, and profit-focused business practices — and the goal of achieving both personal fulfillment and financial freedom.

 

 
 

Hennapreneur is on a mission to help you make more money with your art through quality instruction and mentorship.

Studies show that women entrepreneurs typically do not generate enough revenue to represent a living wage — and especially so if they are women of color. The average revenue of Black female entrepreneurs represents a whopping 83% less than the total average revenue of all woman-owned businesses.

As if that weren’t enough, the average annual revenue for artists doesn’t even reach the $50,000 mark — and this doesn’t account for any gender- and race-related disparities.

We’re determined to help you win against these odds.

Hennapreneur was founded by Chelsea Stevenson, professional henna artist and business strategist.

Chelsea started her career in 2011 as a single mother, hustling henna out of her living room in order to keep food on the table. By 2014 she’d become a full-time henna artist, offering consulting to henna artists in her community and beyond.

Today she’s the owner of Baltimore’s most celebrated henna boutique, homeschooling mother of three, and mentor to business owners across varied creative niches.

She’s been a featured instructor at a number of the industry’s top henna conferences, and has debuted in a number of publications such as The Baltimore Sun, Baltimore Magazine, and Buzzfeed.

 

 
 
 
 
 

What we do

At Hennapreneur, we teach henna artists to harness their skills and build five-figure businesses with their art.

We provide online education, professional resources, and business coaching for new and seasoned henna artists with time-saving, cash-generating, and life-enriching systems and strategies.

With a focus on sustainability and financial empowerment, our programs are designed to help you to make more money while doing what you love without sacrificing your life or your sanity in the process.

 
 
 

our big why

We live in a society that undervalues artists, undercompensates women, and undermines the work of marginalized communities.

This deep-rooted systemic inequity means the odds of establishing a profitable business are stacked squarely against the vast majority of henna artists.

Not only will most be grossly underpaid, this also suggests they’ll never reach financial freedom with their art — regardless of skill level or career length.

At Hennapreneur, we believe that you deserve more. We’re on a mission to change the industry — and the lives of henna artists around the world — with our programs.

 
 
 
 

Who we serve

We are proud to support smart, ambitious henna artists who want to use their art as the tool for building their wealth and legacy.

At Hennapreneur, we believe that with the right resources, every artist is capable of designing the reality she desires.

We teach our students to step into their CEO shoes and to take ownership of their life and business because we know that self-trust and self-honoring are unequivocal assets in your journey.

Our most successful students are action-taking, impact-making, cash-collecting women who refuse to settle for less — and they are changing the world one design at a time.
