About Bold Indo-Arabic & Pakistani Styles

What makes this style stand out is the intentional use of negative space. Instead of filling every inch, I balance those bold, dark floral motifs with empty skin. This contrast is exactly what makes the stain pop once it develops, especially since I use my own homemade, organic henna cones to ensure a deep, rich colour.
