Henna/Mehendi, a timeless art form that weaves intricate designs onto the canvas of your skin, is a celebration of tradition and beauty. At "Mehendi By Arwa", we understand the significance of this art, especially for brides on their special day. To ensure your bridal henna experience is nothing short of perfection, we've crafted a comprehensive guide covering everything from pre-care rituals to post-application care. Let's dive into the world of henna and unveil the secrets to a truly enchanting experience.

Pre-Care Instructions: Preparing the Canvas for Elegance

1. Prepare Your Canvas:
  • Your skin is the canvas, and like any masterpiece, it deserves a clean start. Avoid applying moisturizers or oils to the designated henna areas at least one hour before your session.

2. Hand Hygiene Matters:
  • Cleanliness is key. Wash your hands thoroughly before your henna application to create an ideal surface for the intricate designs.

3. Timing Considerations:
  • Plan ahead, and avoid waxing on the same day as your henna appointment to prevent any skin sensitivity. Opt for hair removal treatments at least a day before the big day.

Post-Care Instructions: Nurturing Your Henna Artwork

1. Embrace Patience:
  • True art takes time to flourish. Leave the henna on for at least 3-4 hours post-application for the best color results.

2. Handle with Care:
  • Treat your henna with respect. Refrain from washing your hands immediately after removing the henna to allow the color to set and last longer.

3. Nourish Your Art:
  • Once your henna has dried, enhance its vibrancy by applying a small amount of mustard oil with a cotton ball. This not only enriches the color but also nourishes your skin.

4. Sweet Dreams, Beautiful Henna:
  • Protect your henna masterpiece overnight by applying a thin layer of vaporub before sleeping. This ensures your design stays intact, ready to shine on your special day.

Application Process Duration: Crafting Beauty Takes Time

1. Artistry Takes Time:
  • The Gold and Diamond Bridal packages come to life with 4-5 hours of meticulous design. Our artists blend simplicity and detail to create a henna experience that is uniquely yours.

2. Platinum Royalty:
  • For the Platinum Bridal package, expect an extra touch of regality. The application may take up to 5 hours as our artists weave dense and intricate patterns from hands to elbows and mid-way down the feet. The result is a breathtaking adornment fit for a queen.

As you embark on your henna journey with Mehendi By Arwa, remember that each stroke is a testament to tradition and celebration. Your bridal henna experience is not just an art form; it's a story waiting to be told on your special day. Embrace the magic, embrace the tradition, and let the enchantment of henna unfold.
