Note to brides;
*All bridal designs will be done no later then 48hrs before the wedding in order for stain to mature to it's full colour.
*Please
have your waxing/shaving, pedicure, manicure and tanning done before
the application of henna. These things can severely affect the stain and
longevity of the design. Mehandi by Maggie cannot be held responsible
for stain quality if this or the aftercare instructions are not
followed.
*If
the bride desires to get henna done during a Sangeet/Laylat al henna it
is advisable to have the design started 1-2hrs before the event starts
so that it is being finished as guests arrive. This way the bride is
free to greet guests without interrupting the artist. This saves
a ton of time and allows the bride to enjoy her party.
Note to expectant Mothers;
Currently there are a lot of stories talking of henna designs causing blistering, infections and scarring these stories are all about "Black henna". Unfortunately some OB-GYNs are confused and are telling expectant mother's to steer clear of all henna during pregnancy. Pure henna is a safe and enjoyable experience for Moms-to-be. However ALL prenatal henna designs by Mehandi by Maggie
are only done with paste consisting of henna, lemon juice, dextrose and
aromatherapy grade lavender essential oil. Lavender oil has been shown
to be the safest oil for expectant Moms.
An allergic
reaction to natural henna is extremely rareand is one of the safest
substances known (and much safer then nail polish, lipstick or hair
dye). There is no known danger to Mother or child (other then a possible
allergic reaction to the paste ingredients) during a prenatal design.
In fact many Mothers find the application to be very relaxing.
