"Henna, this form of natural and temporary body art, has been a passion for me since I was very young. My first designs were simple lines and happy faces, drawn with a $1 plastic henna cone I bought from the local Indian store. I was intensely frustrated with these lines, but for whatever reason, found it satisfying to sit hours on end, scribbling away. Several years later, some kind friends asked me to do their bridal henna, giving me the confidence to try this ‘henna thing’ professionally... the rest, as they say, is history!" 

To insure that you get the darkest possible stain, Sumeyya makers her own henna paste using: fresh henna powder, lemon juice, sugar, and aromatherapy-grade essential oils (lavender and tea tree). Therefore, her henna is 100% natural and completely safe!
