I used Henna Shimmer for my wedding henna. She did a fabulous job and her work was meticulous. I also ordered some henna designed candles as gifts for my new sister in laws, which by the way they loved! I would defintely recommend Henna Shimmer and will defintely book her services again for my henna needs.

I appreciated everything Henna did for me. She does fantastic work and is very prompt. I was so surprised how fast she was able to ship me my order. She is very nice and pleasant as well.

I loved the candles so much! These candles are perfect for any events, in addition to giving them as gifts. I recommend them to everyone. The beautiful design on them adds additional spark to these high quality candles.

Henna Shimmer did a fantastic job on my bridal henna and the henna party the night before the wedding. I have had henna done on me for a handful of weddings and just for fun, including once in India. Henna Shimmer's work is by far the best I've ever had.
At first, she won me over with an actual printed contract for us to fill out. Then she gave me a sample of her work, by tattooing my palm and just behind my fingernail. I am Indian, but don't love a lot of traditional henna looks. Henna Shimmer totally understood and worked on sketches of what she thought I would like. Then when I had a few small changes, she wasn't defensive or offended , she took notes and delivered what I wanted.
My Bridal Henna took 3.5 hours, and we watched 1.5 movies as she worked. She talked to us, explained the process to my white sister-in-law, and laughed a lot as she worked. She brought all her own stuff and was very accommodating when I needed a drink or food or to change positions. Her design was the most intricately detailed freehand I've ever seen.
The next day, she arrived as the star of the henna party. She did 41 designs in about 3 or 4 hours. Everyone loved the work she did.
The henna design came on incredibly dark and started fading 3 days later as we were on a beach resort. It would have lasted much longer without all the swimming. The Hubby and I found that after it dried, the best thing to do was wrap my hands loosely in some tulle, then I slept with socks on my hands. Best advice I got was from Henna Shimmer. "Scrape it off, don't wash it off. Water is the enemy of henna."
All in all, my experience with Henna Shimmer was fantastic. As my sister-in-law kept saying, "if I weren't watching you do it, I'd swear this was fake! (it's that good)" My first impression of her was that she was a little stand-off-ish, but that quickly faded to her being sweet, funny, and incredibly gracious. Final thoughts? Use this woman. She is amazing.

I was looking for a mendhi artist that was reliable, professional, and obviously talented and I found all of that in Henna Shimmer. My first meeting with her consisted of detailed pictures of her work with clear pricing, as well as, a complimentary henna tattoo to demonstrate her work and efficiency.
Henna Shimmer is different from other local henna artists in which she will map out the entire design and will have a finalized piece prior to your event with exactly what you want. This way there are no surprises on your henna night; you know exactly what design will applied. Henna Shimmer was able to put on my bridal henna and smaller henna designs on ~30 ladies all in one henna night! She's talented and professional.
Thank you Henna Shimmer!!

Hanneia was my henna artist for my whole wedding. She is dedicated to her work, she makes beautiful sketches of the pre-selected design before the appointment and ensures the customer/bride is fully satisfied.She even did henna designs for all my guests and they too loved it. I had great time working with her and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a good and reasonable mehendi artist in Overland Park area. Cheers!!
