About Custom & Themed Henna
Why I Do Henna
For me, henna is about more than pretty patterns. I like turning your moments and memories into designs that really mean something to you. Each design I do is different, because every person’s story is different.
What I Use on Your Skin
I’m very serious about what goes on your skin. My go-to is my own 100% organic henna, made by me at home. It gives a deep, rich stain that lasts, but you need to give it a day or two to get to that perfect maroon-brown. If you want instant henna, I can do it, but honestly, the color peels off quickly, and it’s not great for detailed work. The best results come from the organic stuff.
Your Story, Your Style
Whether you want a personalized bridal mehendi design, something special for a baby shower, or just a fun, unique look, I can sketch up a design from scratch or copy something you love. I’ve done everything from couple silhouettes and hidden names for weddings, to tiny baby feet and birth years for new moms. Even peacocks, elephants, castles - basically, anything you dream up.
How We Make It Happen
Appo (so), we’ll just chat first. Share your ideas, any photos, or just your story with me. Together, we’ll come up with something that’s just for you. I want you to leave with a design that feels like yours, not just another copy-paste job.

My Story
Hey, I'm Shahina. Mehendi is my quiet happiness. Started out in Thrissur, Kerala, now chilling in Bangalore. I love mixing old-school and bold new styles. Every design tells a story - maybe your coffee dates or baby shower excitement. Brides now want minimal arabic mehendi too, not just heavy traditional ones. The best part? Seeing that deep, dark stain and a bride's big smile. That’s pure satisfaction, yaar.
My Work
Henna for Every Event - Bridal, engagement, festivals like Karwa Chauth and Eid, baby showers, parties - I do all. Feet henna too.
Organic Henna Cones Only - I make my own cones, totally organic. Safe for skin. The darker the stain, the happier we both are.
Customized Designs for You - Want coffee date mehendi design? Baby shower themes? Names, dates, memories - I add it all, your story matters.
Bangalore & Kerala Bookings - Based in Bangalore, but I travel for bookings, especially Thrissur. Home service available for all events.
