@@GRAYgauss Traditional henna is lines and dots. Maybe try a simple google search before assuming basic backwater hillbillys are "better at it" simply because of race. Most dont know how to write their own names btw. LITERAL. %65 OF SA CITIZENS CANT READ THEIR OWN DICTION.
@@nurugizani3075 why u gotta add muslims to it? nobody gives a shit. just say Indians and Arabs and africans and go. don't add ur religion into it bro.
I dunno about the whole country but in our/my area sure the decors are phenomenal but choosing your groom or bride is a problem it's like they're being married to our relatives instead of us
Indeed, trust the process! Henna is such a fascinating and beautiful art form lol. BTW your designs never cease to amaze me! Keep up the awesome work❤❤
I saw a video of a henna artist like another one say that in the Indian tradition they hide like stuff related to the wife and husband for the husband to find in the ceremony it’s like where they met or the date of their birthday something like that
Yeah until the end when her palms looked burnt. She shouldn't have filled in the background of the design on her palms. It made them look really bad and it'll only get darker as the day goes on.
For most people, natural henna takes 2 days to darken and palms and tops of hands will ALWAYS be darker than the upper arms 😅 and depending on skin chemistry stains are a reddish brown tone, palms and fingers can get bit darker due to thicker skin and more body heat!
Just a small tip:- 10 minutes after applying Henna apply a little bit of mustard oil . It will help to make the colour more darker in less time (not really sure if it works or not but you can try it maybe😅)
I heard from my grandma that henna tends to be darker for people who have their body temp a bit higher And she used to put sugar solution after the henna is a bit dry and leave overnight and wash it the next morning so after 3 or 4 hours it's very dark
Went to a wedding/reception. Took 2 weeks off because apparently that’s how long we need to celebrate 😅. One of the most memorable moments was the henna party. The women were having a relaxing time, getting our henna done, and just having “tea”. I’m Filipina-American, so one of the artists there included the Philippine flag in my henna and it was so cool!
Yes! The bride usually also get’s little hints like that! At my aunt’s henna party (I’m Indian but my pfp doesn’t look it lol) she wrote her groom’s name, a pair of feet (it’s weird but it was meant to symbolize having children together), her name + her groom’s name and a lot more little Easter eggs! They are so so much fun to look at! :)
@@toxicemotions2888 well, they moved to Washington from California. We’ve been friends for about 10 years so they toured me for like three days. I helped with wedding preparations. There was an event everyday from the next week after I arrived. Too much food, dancing, henna, and cooking. Shopping and we pretty much decompress for three days straight. Oh! I learned a really simple Indian/Bollywood dance. It was amazing! There was also a horse involved because that was how the groom arrived in my friend’s house. Never danced that much in my life. 😂
Yes!! If you notice, in this video, there was a stethoscope added. I’m not sure if it’s traditional, but I see personal touches a lot with henna videos. I’m obsessed with it. 🥰 I have two Indian students who came in with henna the other day and it so cute watching them light up explaining their culture to me. I knew most of it, but I didn’t want to interrupt their absolute joy in sharing.
I love you added the stethoscope! My henna faded immediately and was barely visible at my wedding at all. So it goes. We thought my light skin would make it show up well but it didn’t.
henna tattoos are so beautiful and they clearly take a long time, because just look at how DETAILED and INTRICATE it is! i wonder what it would look like if i got henna art on my skin, i have very light skin so i think there would be way more contrast. also, i love how the further down the arm you get, the darker, thicker, and more layered it gets, so there's a bit of a fade effect. that is GORGEOUS
@@hallaballa07 oh neat! orange is one of my favorite colors, i also run hotter than people my age, so maybe it would be darker for me since i have a higher body temp?
Sesly Ive been having henna ever since I was a child and I’ve never seen more beautiful henna style than yours.. you integrate classic with ur own free style so well it’s always a top art piece 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Idk what henna’s cultural significance is or why a bride would have them but Jesus Christ if that’s not one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever scene on a human
Henna is associated with positive spirits and good luck, but is also done on a bride the day before the wedding as a way to wish good health and prosperity
Indian here: henna reacts to body temperatures too. Hence exact same product and timing will still result in 2 different shades for 2 different people. It’s a natural stain hence never a guarantee coz a lot of ‘post care’ stuff also plays a big big role. No wrong hands for 24 hours, taking clove steam, maybe adding vicks vaporub pre application, applying oil post application are some of the common things we do to darken the colour, but again no guarantees. Finally, the colour is usually best after *48 hours* so plan accordingly. It’s not a last minute stain either. Needs time, care & trust.
Henna is so beautiful! I always love to see the work of artists that do henna. It’s intricate and personal but at the same time it isn’t permanent so it can be fixed or redone after the first one fades.
I used to get these a lot. There is a sense of gratitude in getting one, like a passage of right. The drying process ensures you cannot touch anything. But the entire time you're gathering your patience, desperately wanting to pick it off, but you cannot. Even if just flakes, you're to leave it to be there as it means longevity of the tattoo. Most people don't even have allergies to henna, except for the lemon juice used. And then everyone stares in 'aww' for 2-3 weeks depending on your skin type. 10/10 recommend.
I've had henna done a couple times and it wasn't nearly as beautiful as this. Wow I'm now subscribed, you have skill!! Some people just have it, and you, you have it in spades!!
The level of artistry some people have never ceases to surprise me in new manifestations. This was incredible and she seemed to do it so casually. Awesome 👏🏼
This is so gorgeous and the little details tell a story! My henna never usually darkens on my palms cause I wash my hands so dang much lol but I’ve heard putting lemon juice on it helps. Never tried it
It's wonderful to see the beauty of henna being embraced by people around the world. In India, it holds a special place in our traditions and celebrations. Love the cultural exchange and appreciation! 🌍🌺
Bridal henna is such a beautiful tradition, id feel so blessed if i were ever lucky enough to marry someone who wanted to share that part of their culture with me.
When I saw designs made from henna for weddings, I thought "damn why it’s so strange and not even" but when I saw it my jaw dropped, it’s so evocative and beautiful
