About Henna Art Classes & Workshops
I find a strange peace in henna art - it's therapy, not just design. Watching someone draw their first clean swirl or master a tricky flower, that's what keeps me teaching. Whether you’re picking up a cone for the first time or hoping to sharpen your technique, I’ve structured my henna classes so you start where you are and move up.
What We’ll Dive Into
- From super basic lines to advanced, pro-level details
- Traditional & floral designs, Gulf and Moroccan patterns, modern patchwork
- Hands-on: try step-by-step henna design workshop formats, so you actually get the feel for it
- Loads of practice, no rush
Henna Cone Secrets
A smooth cone makes all the difference. I’ll show you how I make my own cones and mix up natural henna paste (no shortcuts, bas patience chahiye - you just need patience). This bit takes time, but it’s what gives clean, crisp results.
How It Feels in Class
I keep it small and personal, right here in Hanumanthanagar, South Bangalore. You get my full attention, and there’s no “too basic” question. Chalo, seekhte hain! (Come on, let’s learn!) The goal? You walk out confident, ready to create your own traditional Indian mehndi styles or experiment with something new.

My Story
People ask me, ‘Komal, tu bore nahi hoti mehendi lagate lagate?’ (Komal, don’t you get bored applying mehendi?) Never! I find the whole thing calming, like meditation. Rolling fresh cones, drawing stories on hands, chatting with brides – we end up laughing so much, it’s like a mini celebration! Been at this since 2015, always up for trying new stuff. Once, I did allergy-friendly colourful henna for someone – her mom’s reaction was priceless. Sitting for mehendi myself after years, I realised clients deserve a medal for patience!
My Work
All Types of Henna Art - Bridal and groom portraits, baby shower designs, kids’ mehendi, blouse henna art, henna tattoos, and more.
Customised Mehendi Stories - I create designs that reflect your story—like including rituals, names, or special moments in bridal mehendi.
Natural Herbal Henna - Only use pure, natural henna for a safe, deep stain. Best results need 30-35 hours to show up.
Blending Traditions - I love mixing cultures—like mandalas with space for Alta, or fusion designs that mean something to you.
Henna Portraits & Candles - I also do henna portraits on frames and scented candles, plus teach basic to advanced henna courses.
