Henna is a beautiful, natural dye created from the dried, powdered leaves of the Lawsonia inermis plant. When the powder is mixed with specific ingredients (like water and essential oils), it forms a paste that temporarily stains the top layer of the skin. This ancient art form, known as mehndi, has been celebrated for thousands of years, primarily for auspicious occasions like weddings, symbolizing blessings, joy, and good fortune. It is a safe, temporary body art—not a tattoo.

Your safety and skin health are my top priority. I mix my own fresh henna paste for every single client using only organic henna powder and high-quality essential oils (such as eucalyptus or lavender). My paste is 100% natural and free from harmful chemicals or PPD.

Because I take a Fine Art approach to henna, my designs are intricate and detailed. Depending on the coverage you choose (hands, arms, feet, legs), a bridal application can take anywhere from 3 to 6 hours. I recommend setting this time aside as a moment of relaxation amidst the wedding planning chaos!

Absolutely. I specialize in bespoke designs that tell a story. Whether you want to hide your partner's name within the motifs or incorporate elements significant to your relationship, we will work together to create a piece that is uniquely yours.

Dates fill up quickly, particularly during peak wedding seasons. To ensure I am available for your special day, I highly recommend booking roughly 12 months in advance. If your date is approaching sooner than that, please reach out—if I have availability, I would love to work with you.

Yes! My work has taken me all over the world, and I love being part of destination weddings. Please mention your location in your inquiry form so I can include travel arrangements in your custom quote.

Henna needs time to oxidize and mature into that rich, deep mahogany stain we all love. For the best results in your photos, I recommend scheduling your bridal henna appointment 2 to 3 days before your main wedding ceremony.

To ensure the skin absorbs the henna perfectly, please arrive with clean, dry skin free of any lotions, oils, or self-tanner.

• Manicures/Pedicures: These should be done before your henna appointment.
• Waxing/Shaving: Please complete hair removal at least 24 hours prior to application.
• Clothing: Wear something comfortable and sleeveless (or with loose sleeves that can be rolled up) to avoid smudging the design.

The secret to a dark stain is heat and time!

• Keep the paste on your skin for at least 6–8 hours (overnight is best).
• Keep the area warm while the paste is on.
• Once the paste is removed (by scraping, not washing!), avoid water on the area for 24 hours if possible.
• Apply a natural balm or coconut oil regularly to protect the stain as it develops.
