Henna

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Qibla.com

Answered by Sidi Abu Yahya

 I have heard that in the Shafii madhab it is makrooh for unmarried women to wear henna on their hands. Is this so?

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Yes, it is offensive (makrooh) for an unmarried woman to wear henna on her hands or feet. As for a married woman, it is recommended for her to do so if her husband likes it.
