I personally use my homemade organic cones for that deep, dark maroon stain, which means the design requires a little extra care and lemon-sugar sealant once it dries to get the best result. ### Why Storytelling Mehendi? Your mehendi is the final touch before your big day, and it should reflect your journey. Whether it is a Ganpati motif for blessings, a Doli scene, or your wedding date hidden in the patterns, I focus on the details that matter to you. I specialize in full-arm and mid-calf designs, ensuring the artwork looks cohesive from top to bottom. ### My Process Every bride has a different vision. Before we start, I listen to what you want, whether it is specific figures like a bride and groom portrait, or something traditional like lotus mandalas and jaali patterns. I do not believe in rushing art; I work with you to ensure every line is crisp and every figure is recognizable. ### Quality You Can Trust I refuse to use chemical-heavy cones. I prepare my own 100 percent organic mehendi paste, which guarantees a deep, long-lasting maroon stain. This is important because the colour is not just about the paste; it is about the quality of the henna. I also handle the aftercare instructions, ensuring you know how to seal the design with lemon and sugar for the best results. ### Booking and Travel I travel to you, whether you are in Mumbai, Malvan, or Sindhudurg. My service includes everything from intricate bridal hands and feet to sider mehendi for your friends and family. Let us talk about your wedding theme and create a design that is truly yours. ## About Chaitali Suresh Khavanekar Hi, mi Chaitali! I am an artist by heart and mehendi is in my blood.
