About

I am a professional mehndi (henna) artist based out of Gaithersburg, Maryland. My love for henna goes back to my childhood days when I was mesmerized by the most intricate, most detailed and meticulously drawn mehndi designs.
Over the past 9 years, the art of mehndi has been a beautiful therapeutic journey for me. I thoroughly enjoy meeting new faces and creating new designs each time I meet a client. I consider each client to be a blessing and a huge part of my success.

Best Henna Artist in the DMV!

Shazia and Kat truly helped make my wedding weekend that much more spectacular. Shazia did my henna 2 days before the wedding and it came out super, super dark! Literally everyone commented on the design and how dark it was! She was able to do very intricate designs quickly. Most importantly, Shazia was professional, communicative and fun to work with. She made the 5-6 hours go by extremely fast and provided after care balm and gloves. The day before our wedding, we had a meet and greet for close family and friends. Kat did henna on our guests and almost all of our 50 guests (even many of the men) got henna done by her and commented on how good and fast she was. She even brought glitter to add sparklers for those who wanted an extra touch of spice. Thank you both for making our wedding that much more special!

Best Artist Ever!!

I cannot recommend Shazia enough, she always does such an amazing job and is so professional and sweet. She will keep you entertained and laughing whether you’re there for 5 minutes or 9 hours. I found Shazia through a friend and booked her for my engagement session and fell in love with her art and knew she had to do my bridal henna. You will not be disappointed in her work! The henna is natural and leaves the most beautiful stain that truly lasts. Can’t forget Kat as well for the rest of my family and bridesmaids was truly a treat! This dynamic duo will get you ready for your big day🥰

So amazing!

Shazia did an amazing job with my bridal henna! She did 6 hours at my home and it was the most pleasant experience a bride could ask for! We chatted and laughed all day. I let her free style on my henna and could not have been more impressed. I highly recommend!

Incredible work

Shazia was so incredible to work with. She did my bridal henna (8 hours at my home) and then party henna at my welcome drinks. She is an absolute delight to work with - making sure that I was totally prepped and ready for a perfect stain and with instructions and items for the proper after care. She let me customize my design completely, and she was so lovely and calming to spend an entire day with before my wedding. The final product was stunning.

Stunning work & incredible experience

Shazia did my bridal mehndi, which was possibly one of the most important decisions I made, and I was in the perfect hands. Her work is beyond beautiful. Ahead of our session, we had a one hour call to talk through different design ideas, and she absolutely nailed every element of the designs we had discussed (making sure to include various small details I had mentioned were important to me) and the result was an absolutely stunning work of art. Hear easy going demeanor and sweet nature made the almost 7 hour experience fly by and was an extreme joy to spend the time with her. I wish I could have her designs on my hands forever. I cannot recommend working with Shazia enough.

Just henna by Shazia is the best in the DMV

I have been following Shazia’s henna page on social media for a while and have dreamt of hiring her for when my wedding events would occur. Finally back in December of 2023 it was my turn and the only person I knew I was going to get my henna done from was Shazia. She is an amazing artist but also such positive energy . She made sure that to capture all the details that I wanted and made it look flawless. She also took care of my family’s henna. Forever grateful to her for the art she created. Hands down the best in the DMV area. Thank you Shazia!

Simply Lovely and Amazing. Created a Wonderful Ambiance

Shazia and her teammate Kat came well equipped. They had their chairs and tables ready. We had discussed the designs/timing beforehand and went straight to business. Along the way we shared laughter, good times, and top tier professionalism. Shazia’s attention to detail and speed were unmatched compared to any henna artist I’ve hired. I had a lovely experience from start to finish and highly recommend Shazia!

Blessed to have my Henna done by Shazia

I remember when my younger sister had asked Shazia to do her henna for her wedding in 2022 a couple of days before her wedding. After Shazia completed her wonderful, (beautiful work) I said In Sha Allah I’ll be next and I’ll be calling you! In 2023 as soon as my wedding dates were finalized I called Shazia ❤️ She did such a wonderful job, and not only a wonderful job, she is such a sweet caring and kind person. Shazia’s work is detailed and beautiful ❤️ My cousin is no getting married and both my sister and I told her to reach out to Shazia! I totally recommend Shazia and would say that she did such a great job! She is also a wonderful person, who will really make you cry tears or joy and happiness before your special day! Her henna work, instructions are amazing!
