I asked Sana to do my bridal henna as half of my wedding was traditional Punjabi style. My henna artist I had previously booked let me down and Sana was able to make a custom design for my arms, palms, hands and feet in less than a week!!! She even put my now husbands name in it and it was beautiful.

She also did 2 of my bridal party and was able to do a similar styles on them that complimented but didn’t overshadow my own henna…..She made me feel so pampered and she let me just really enjoy the experience. Her demeanour and henna (because of the oils) relaxed me so much I had a hard time not nodding off!

….Other artists I spoke to didn’t seem to want to put henna on me and made me feel like I shouldn’t have it done, despite marrying an Indian person and having a partly Asian wedding. Beautiful experience and made me feel like an absolute queen and went with both my English and Asian dresses beautifully.

I work at BCWH and had Sana for an event. From my first communication with Sana, she was responsive, helpful and professional. Sana would provide helpful details and was very flexible around the hospitals policies and procedures. Sana is a friendly lady who provided beautiful henna for the young people and staff of the hospital- they were so pleased with their art and lifted moods immensely. Cannot recommend Sana enough, she free styled the henna but also had designs to choose from if wanted.

I believe the children and young people in the hospital would benefit from working with Sana again as it was a nice afternoon to focus on mindfulness and self care!

My time with Sana was so much more than just getting beautiful & meaningful henna done, she became a part of my family and instantly became my friend and confidante. She helped me manage my anxiety and stress, and gave me great personal advice to face the challenges ahead of me. I had not expected to get all these intangible things from one person, let alone from a henna artist, but Sana was God sent for me in my time of need ❤️.

Anyone considering Sana to do your Bridal henna, please know that you are getting far more than just having a personalised and perfect henna done. She's such a lovely person, she will become like your sister and friend and you will later struggle to imagine how your wedding could have ever happened without her support and calming presence. I remembered Sana everyday when I looked at my hands, and felt so sad when the last bits of my Henna eventually wore off. Xx

Sana did a phenomenal job with my henna. The henna and interactive session that I had with her was my best experience so far.

A lil back story is that I got my henna done somewhere just in time for eid, and the colour didn’t transform my hands and just ended up looking dull, I contacted Sana and she transformed them and made them look so attractive and beautiful and the colour was so dark and the best part of all of it, was that she used organic and natural henna, which made my sensitive hands not react at all! I would 100% rate her and recommende to all my friends! Thank you so much for the wonderful experience. 💕🤗

Sana did very nice Henna in my daughter’s hands. The fine details of the drawing and the overall design were amazing. I highly recommend her as she is using natural Henaa that’s very important for kids and also the variety of designs she has shown to me were impressive.

I initially booked Sana to apply henna on my daughters hands who are under the age of 5. I had found it difficult to find someone in Birmingham who made their own organic henna so I was really happy to come across her Instagram page. Having just had another baby, I didn't think I would be able to get mine done but Sana quickly reassured me and even brought a hair dryer with her so I could quickly dry the henna in case baby woke up! She is so lovely and friendly but professional at the same time. She was very neat and beautifully copied a design I had found myself and her attention to detail makes the patterns look perfect! The henna itself smells incredible and has a very therapeutic feel to it. My daughters and I loved the whole experience and we cannot wait to get our henna done from Sana again.

Had an amazing Henna session with Sana who did my Henna for a wedding. Prior to the session, Sana kept in touch to discuss designs and gave me tips on how to prepare the skin beforehand. At the session, Sana made me feel very comfortable and relaxed throughout. She provided guidance and advice on how to look after the henna after application. Had the most amazing Henna colour! In addition, Sana’s Henna is all natural, kind to the skin with no nasties. Would highly highly recommend!

Sana is really friendly and warm. Her Henna smells amazing it applied smoothly and she did the henna so quick. It was a freestyle design and it turned out so pretty. She also put tape on the design this is good because i cud get on with stuff for the next few hours without worrying that it will smudge.
