## About Custom & Portrait Henna

### Why I Do What I Do

I’ve been making mehndi since 2016, and for me, it’s all about art that means something to you. I don’t just draw patterns - I create designs that tell your story, whether it’s your wedding, a family moment, or something totally unique. I like getting to know your story, the little details, and turning them into mehndi you can actually wear.

### What I Offer

- I love custom figure work. Want a realistic portrait or a cartoon-style version of you and your partner? I do both.
- Family moments, like mother-child portraits for baby showers, or tributes to loved ones.
- Deity portraits and meaningful icons if that’s special for you.
- Full storytelling mehndi: your wedding journey, traditional scenes like Doli or Baraat, even your wedding date in the design.
- Celebrate festivals or milestones with Rakshabandhan, Mysuru Dasara, or whatever means something to you.

### How I Work

- I make my own 100% natural henna at home. No chemicals, just pure stuff that gives a deep, long-lasting colour and is safe for everyone.

### What Matters to Me

*Bahut saalon ki mehnat lagti hai* (takes years of hard work) to get those portraits just right. Each line is not just a design, it’s my passion and a bit of my heart in your story.

Custom couple henna design and storytelling mehndi art are what I’m known for. If you want something personal and real, I’m here for it.

### My story

Namaskara! Mehndi is not just kaam (work) for me, it’s my zindagi (life). I started in 2016, and now, over a thousand clients feel like my own family. Kabhi kabhi log poochte hain, price kyun itna? (Sometimes people ask, why is it so pricey?) But they don’t see the years it takes for those perfect lines. I mix my own organic mehndi, and every design—be it a mother’s love, a couple’s story, or ‘Naguvina Odeya’ smile—is a piece of my heart.

### My work

- **All Occasion Mehndi**: Bridal, engagement, maternity belly henna, festival, custom portrait, Arabic patterns—sab kuch milta hai (you get everything).
- **Organic Mehndi Only**: I make my own mehndi, 100% natural for a rich, organic mehndi stain and safe skin.
- **Custom Designs for You**: Want your story or memories in mehndi? I’ll create custom portrait mehndi just for you.
- **Service Areas**: Based in Karnataka, I travel across Bangalore, Mysore, and nearby places for clients.
