## About Mehendi Artistry

### About Me

Mi Chaitali, mehendi artist from Mumbai and Malvan. Mehendi is not just my work, it's my passion. Swat shikleli kala kadhich upashi marat nahi (a skill you learn yourself will never let you go hungry) - this is what I believe. Seeing a bride smile with her mehendi is the best feeling.

### What I Do

- Bridal mehendi is my main thing. I do full hands, arms, feet - all with clean, detailed designs.
- Engagement and baby shower mehendi - I make custom patterns, add cradles, "Mom to be" text, whatever you want.
- Sider and festive mehendi for your friends, family, or festivals like Diwali, Karwa Chauth, Makar Sankranti.

### My Style

Agdi havi tashi mehendi (exactly the mehendi you want) - that's my promise. People say, "Mehendi lagana toh easy hai..." (Applying mehendi is so easy...) but I know it's not just about putting colour. I tell your story with my art.

- Portrait mehendi art - I can draw you, your partner, or even Ganpati in your design.
- Wedding stories - doli, kalash, elephants, all those wedding vibes.
- Personal touches - names, initials, wedding date, hidden in the patterns.

### Quality Matters

I use only my own fresh, organic mehendi cones. The stain comes out deep and dark, and the finishing is always neat. No shortcuts.

### Service

I come to your home, whether you're in Mumbai, Malvan, or anywhere in Konkan. You can chill and get your mehendi done at your place.

## Meet your expert

### My story

Hi, mi Chaitali! Artist by heart, mehendi in my blood, and my hands never sit still. I move between Malvan and Mumbai, bringing my kala (art) everywhere. Swat: shikleli kala kadhich upashi marat nahi - what you learn yourself, feeds you for life. People think mehendi is easy - ha, let them try sitting for hours, back aching, eyes straining. Still, nothing beats a bride’s smile when she sees her dream mehendi on her hands. That’s my reward, every time.

### My work

- **Full Bridal & Event Services**: I do mehendi (bridal, sider, baby shower), makeup (bridal, party, natural), hair, nails, and saree draping.
- **Home Service - I Come To You**: Malvan, Mumbai, Sindhudurg, Dombivali, Thane, Borivali, Kurla - wherever you are, I’ll travel.
- **Custom Portrait Mehendi Designs**: Specialist in bridal mehendi, figure work, portraits, floral, Arabic and semi-bridal styles. You ask, I create.
- **Organic Bridal Mehendi Cones**: I use only fresh, homemade organic cones for a dark, safe stain. No chemicals, just pure mehendi.
- **One-Stop Bridal Artist**: From intricate mehendi to final makeup, hair, and saree draping - I handle it all for your big day.
