Henna for Eid

Come down to Poplar Union and join us in getting ready for Eid with a late afternoon of Henna!

Get ready for your celebrations and get some professional henna on your hands this Eid. Book your 20min slot and pick from the simplest to the most intricate designs.

The art of decorating skin/ body with different designs is known as Mehendi in Indian Sub-Continental. Usually, women apply many design variations onto their hands & body. Traditionally, Henna has been used for centuries for body decoration and is associated with many cultural celebrations.

The Artist

Henna Science 

“My passion for art and elegant floral patterns interested me towards henna art as a hobby. As a self-taught artist from a young age, I have practised henna on the hands of many family members and at events such as summer fairs, parties and for more special occasions such as Eid. Henna art is an opportunity for me to express my talent and to put a smile on the faces of other henna enthusiasts.

Come down to the Poplar Union and be inspired into the world of Henna art!”
