Top 10 Mehndi Artists in Chandigarh
FAQ
What types of Mehndi designs do you offer?
We offer many mehndi designs, including traditional Indian, Arabic, Moroccan, and contemporary fusion styles. Our repertoire includes intricate bridal designs, minimalist patterns, nature-inspired motifs, and personalized artwork.
We can create full-hand and feet designs, delicate finger patterns, or statement pieces on other body parts. Whether you prefer classic paisley patterns, modern geometric designs, or custom illustrations, our skilled artists can bring your vision to life with beautiful henna artistry.
How long does a typical Mehndi application take?
The duration varies depending on the complexity and coverage of the design. Straightforward designs on hands can take 30-60 minutes, while more intricate bridal mehendi might require 3-6 hours or more.
Full-body designs for special occasions can take several hours spread over multiple sessions. We recommend discussing your desired design with us beforehand so we can allocate sufficient time and ensure a relaxed, enjoyable experience.
How long does Mehndi last on the skin?
Depending on various factors, Mehndi typically lasts 1-3 weeks on the skin. The longevity is influenced by the quality of henna, your skin type, and how well you care for the design. Designs on hands and feet tend to last longer due to thicker skin.
The colour peaks 24-48 hours after application, then gradually fades. Proper aftercare, such as moisturizing and avoiding water exposure, can help extend the life of your Mehndi.
Is the henna you use safe?
We prioritize your safety and use only 100% natural, organic henna powder for our Mehndi. Our henna paste is free from harmful chemicals, PPD (para-phenylenediamine), or artificial dyes that can cause allergic reactions.
We never use “black henna,” which can be dangerous. We recommend a patch test before application if you have sensitive skin or allergies. Our henna is safe for all skin types and ages.
Can you do Mehndi for special occasions other than weddings?
Absolutely! While bridal Mehndi is popular, we create designs for various occasions. We offer mehndi services for engagement parties, baby showers, birthdays, festivals like Eid and Diwali, graduation celebrations, and corporate events.
We also cater to clients who want beautiful henna art for everyday wear or as a form of self-expression. Our artists can tailor designs to suit any occasion or personal style.
Do you offer mobile mehndi services?
Yes, we provide mobile mehndi services for your convenience. Our artists can come to your home, event venue, or any location you choose within our service area. This is particularly popular for bridal Mehndi, where the bride can relax in a familiar environment.
We bring all the necessary supplies and can set up in small spaces. Additional travel fees may apply depending on the distance. Please bookmobile services in advance to ensure availability.
How should I prepare for my Mehndi appointment?
To prepare for your mehndi appointment, ensure your skin is clean and free from oils, lotions, or creams. Exfoliate the area a day before to remove dead skin cells. Wear comfortable, loose clothing that won’t rub against the wet henna.
Plan your schedule to allow the henna to dry naturally without interruption. For bridal Mehndi, consider arranging help for basic tasks as your hands will be occupied. Lastly, come with design ideas or reference images if you have specific preferences.
How do I care for my Mehndi after application?
After application, allow the henna paste to dry completely and stay on for at least 4-6 hours or overnight for best results. Gently scrape off the dried paste instead of washing it. Avoid water contact for 24 hours.
Add lemon juice and sugar to the design to enhance colour. Keep the area moisturized with natural oils like eucalyptus or lavender. Avoid chlorine, harsh soaps, and excessive sweating. With proper care, your Mehndi will develop a rich colour and last longer.
Can you incorporate specific symbols or text into the Mehndi design?
Certainly! We can incorporate symbols, text, or meaningful elements into your mehndi design. This is popular for adding personal touches like initials, dates, or cultural symbols. We often hide the groom’s name or initials within the bride’s wedding Mehndi.
We can work with Sanskrit, Arabic, or English text. If you have particular symbols or elements in mind, please discuss them with your artist during the consultation to ensure they can be beautifully integrated into the overall design.
Do you offer any Mehndi workshops or classes?
Yes, we provide mehndi workshops and classes for those interested in learning the art. Our courses range from beginner sessions covering basic techniques and simple designs to advanced classes focusing on intricate patterns and professional application methods.
We provide all materials and offer both group and private lessons. These workshops are great for hobbyists and aspiring mehndi artists or as fun group activities for events like hen parties. Class schedules and registration details are available on our website or by contacting us directly.
