About Kids' Mehndi
Why Mehndi for Kids Feels Special to Me
Mehndi is more than just a design for me - it's a part of my heart. Jab main choti choti haathon pe mehndi lagati hoon (When I decorate those tiny hands), it’s pure joy. I’m self-taught, and every design gets my full attention and love.
Designs for Every Little Hand
I work with kids of all ages. For babies and toddlers, I keep it quick and simple - chotu-sa star, turtle, or ek pyaari si flower (a cute little flower). Older kids who can sit for longer get intricate circular mandalas or leafy vines - I do fuller patterns if they want. Festival time? Eid, Diwali, Ramadan - I offer unique festival mehndi designs for children, like the crescent moon or playful florals.
Safety and Comfort
Safe mehndi for kids is my top concern. I’m super gentle, especially with toddlers who can’t sit still. No stress - only fun. I use child-friendly henna, and I come to your place so bachche relaxed ho (kids stay relaxed).
My Approach
If you want speed, finishing suffers. Agar finishing chahiye, toh speed thodi slow ho jayegi (If you want perfect finishing, speed will be a bit slow). I always choose beautiful finishing. For me, each child’s design should feel special, not rushed.

My Story
Hi, I’m Saniya from Mumbai. Mehndi isn’t just work for me, it’s my whole jaan (life). I taught myself—lots of paper, lots of practice, friends as guinea pigs. Sometimes I get emotional, especially when clients spin stories for discounts, then splurge elsewhere. Moye moye, kya kare (what can I do), my heart still melts. At the end, I trust my art. Alhamdulillah, this gift means everything.
