### My story

Hey, I’m Radhika, the one doodling at Caffeinated Henna. Mehendi started for me with my mom’s hands and a lot of childhood excitement. Somewhere along the way, work made things stiff – just lines, no soul. So I take breaks, do a design for myself, and remember that kid who loved messy hands. My dad still gets roped in as my test canvas! I love when clients challenge me, it keeps things real and fun.

### My work

- **All Kinds of Henna & Mehendi**: Bridal, engagement, Eid, Karvachauth, Teej, party, plus custom portraits and creative designs.
- **Bollywood Portrait Henna**: I create faces in henna - from Madhuri ji to your loved ones, even quirky requests.
- **Modern & Traditional Styles**: Mixing realistic floral henna designs, grids, negative space, and anime-inspired mehendi.
- **Online & Offline Henna Classes**: I teach beginners online and offer portrait courses in Navi Mumbai.
- **Natural Deep Stain Henna**: Obsessed with my own paste and giving aftercare tips for that dark, lasting stain.
