We've done a couple of different designs now and they always all looked amazing. I got a lot of compliments on it and the stain was long lasting which is great through the whole wedding week!

It's important to take care of it the way Maaz instructs, and to keep it on as long as possible. You can ask for medical tape if you need.

Maaz did a wonderful job on my wedding henna! I hired them to do my wedding henna as well as…read moresmaller designs on the guests at my henna party, and they did a phenomenal job. They did both hands and feet for me with stunning designs, clearly incorporated what I said I was looking for, and worked SO quickly. They finished (admittedly smaller than some bridal henna I've seen, only to just past my wrists) in maybe 2.5 hours, and took another hour/hour and a half to complete 8 or so smaller designs. Their pricing was extremely reasonable, much less than other artists and the quality was unbeatable. I left the paste on for about 4 or 5 hours, but the paste was getting itchy and I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep with it on, so I took it off after that time, and still got a beautiful dark stain that lasted for about a week. If it makes sense for you, I definitely recommend scheduling your henna in the morning so you can leave the paste on for more of the day to get an even darker stain, but mine was gorgeous even after just a few hours.

I cannot recommend Lolitha Popuri (@Loli_Henna) enough! She was our henna artist for our wedding,…read moreand working with her was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. From our very first conversation, Lolitha was kind, professional, and incredibly accommodating. One thing we really appreciated was how transparent she was about her pricing. She was upfront about costs, worked with our budget, and helped us find options that fit our needs without ever making us feel pressured. That honesty and flexibility made the planning process so much easier. She took the time to understand exactly what I envisioned for my bridal mehndi and created a design that was even more beautiful than I had imagined. Every detail was intricate, elegant, and personalized, blending traditional elements with a modern touch that perfectly matched our wedding style. On the day of the mehndi, she made the entire experience so enjoyable. She worked efficiently without ever compromising on the quality of her artistry, and her calm, friendly personality helped me relax and truly enjoy the moment. The henna stain developed into a rich, dark color that lasted beautifully throughout all of our wedding celebrations, and I received countless compliments from family, friends, and guests. Our guests also loved their henna, and Lolitha was patient, organized, and made sure everyone who wanted a design had a wonderful experience. If you're looking for a talented, reliable, and genuinely caring henna artist in the Bay Area, I wholeheartedly recommend Lolitha Popuri (@Loli_Henna). Her artistry, professionalism, transparency, and willingness to work within our budget made her such an important part of our wedding celebrations. We're so grateful we chose her and would happily recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, high-quality henna. Thank you, Lolitha, for helping make our wedding memories even more beautiful!

She came on-site a few of days before the celebrations to do my bridal henna, along with designs for my mom, my friend, and small designs for my husband and dad. She took so much care with every detail and never rushed, making the whole experience feel relaxed and special. My bridal designs came out absolutely stunning -- intricate, elegant, and exactly what I hoped for. Loli uses natural henna and she provided clear after-care instructions. The stain developed over the next couple of days into a very deep color that everyone kept complimenting! (Pro tip: get your henna done a few days early for the darkest stain.) One thing I really appreciated is how thoughtful she was even after she finished -- she stayed and took photos of all our henna, which was so sweet and gave us such special memories to look back on. We also hired Loli for our Haldi + Henna event so our guests could get small designs. She coordinated and brought additional artists, and they were all punctual, friendly, and incredibly talented. Our guests loved their designs. Loli is communicative, organized, and truly an expert at her craft; she's also a great person to chat with! I highly, highly recommend her!

While I had no particular requests for my henna, she did ask if I was right or left handed and took note that I'm a new mom and adorned me with her work. She was very friendly and a lot of fun to talk to. For the aftercare I really wish I read it thoroughly. I ended up scraping the henna off a little too early because I was worried it would stain clothing or flake off onto things and you can definitely tell which part I should have left on a little longer. It is however, getting darker by the hour and is still lovely. Follow directions, y'all!!

I came across henna strokes on Instagram and immediately feel in love with the work. So I booked varsha almost a year ahead for my wedding. I shared the designs I wanted and I put in all my trust in her and of course she did such an amazing job on my henna. We were sitting for about 6-7 hours and she made sure each every single design was detailed and beautifully done. She was so professional and friendly at the same time. I literally felt like as if I had known her for ages. I got my henna done two days before my wedding and I was somewhat nervous about the color fading off but I was sooo happy to see that my henna turned out so dark the day of my wedding. I would recommend everyone who book varsha in future please listen to her after care and do exactly what she says and I promise you, you won't be disappointed with the outcome.

I have gotten Mehendi (henna) done several times in my life but never anything as neat as this. If I can suggest anything when you book an appointment, it's that you should let her freehand or pick for you! Her designs are so intricate and she knows what she's doing -- you can possibly get something that hasn't been put on anyone else. That's what she did with me and I absolutely loved how it turned out. I couldn't stop looking down at my hands! The first 2 photos with red nails were from when I got henna done by her for the first time. The photo with my champagne nails had two designs: one was done for a wedding and the other hand was done as an Eid design as we were celebrating Eid that same weekend. Take a look at the moon on my hand. So beautiful! I can't wait to get it done again.
