About Traditional Bridal Artistry

For these full-coverage traditional designs, I recommend planning for 6 to 9 hours of application time. I use only triple-sifted organic henna mixed with essential oils, so the drying time is crucial for that signature deep stain; we will work out a schedule that lets you relax while the pattern develops.
