The Art and Process Behind My Henna
Mehendi is more than just tradition; it is a craft. Here is a look at the techniques, natural materials, and the passion I bring to every henna session.
This video gives you a peek into a mehendi session with a client, showing my careful application process and the happy results.
I believe in delivering the best results, and that includes a dark, rich stain. This video demonstrates the traditional clove steam technique I recommend to all my clients.
Mehendi application is an art and a ritual. This image captures a quiet moment of creativity, with a fresh henna cone ready to be used.
About My Art & Process
Quality isn't just a promise; it is in the process. I use a homemade organic henna mix infused with eucalyptus and nilgiri oils, followed by a signature 'laung ka dhuan' (clove steam) session to lock in a deep, rich stain that lasts well beyond your celebration.
My journey as a mehendi artist has been about refining the craft. Based in Kondhwa, I travel across Pune and the Mumbai Metropolitan Area, bringing my own natural henna cones—a blend of organic powder, eucalyptus, and nilgiri oils. I avoid chemical, store-bought cones because the health of your skin is my priority.
For my bridal clients, the process starts with a consultation where we finalize motifs. We don't just copy designs; we create them. Whether you want your wedding date, a portrait, or symbols like your favorite bike or spiritual motifs, we weave your story into the design.
The 'laung ka dhuan' or clove steam treatment is my signature step. It involves gently heating cloves to release aromatic oils that interact with the dried henna, deepening the oxidation process. This results in the rich, dark maroon stain that clients often ask for. Whether it is a small family gathering or a large-scale wedding where I bring my team to handle multiple guests, the standard of the application and the quality of the henna remain the same. This isn't just about speed; it is about delivering art that feels special.
