8 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE
Bridget had been absolutely obsessed with henna ever since she first laid eyes on it, 8 years ago. She quickly looked
up as much information as she could about it - history, traditions, designs - and went to the local Pakistani store and
picked up a box of Indian henna powder and mixed it up according to directions from The Henna Page, and was
pleasantly surprised with her natural abilities. She was soon hennaing anyone and everyone who would sit still long
enough to let it set (including herself, her kids, and her husband). Over years of practice, learning, trying to absorb
and become inspired by other henna artists, and finding the best possible brands of professional quality imported
henna, Bridget has become the wonderfully detailed, steady-handed Mehndi artist that she is today.
She does all of her henna freehand, without stencils or transfers, and has a wide variety of patterns she brings to
every appointment for your inspiration and ideas.
