Appointment FAQ

What should I do before the appointment?

Ensure that you have completed all your errands for the day and block out the rest of the day just for your henna appointment. Before the appointment starts, it is also best to ensure that you have gone to the toilet because you will have to sit in the same spot for the next hour for causal henna, and 2-4 hours for bridal henna, depending on your design. 

 

What should I wear for my appointment?

Since movement will be restricted once you have your henna paste on, wear something loose for maximum comfort - we personally recommend Kaftans and Baju Butterflies uwu. If you have picked a design that goes up to the midlength of your arms, then pick something that is easy for you to raise your sleeves up during the appointment, or even better, wear short sleeves like tshirts! 

 

I have hairy forearms, will my midlength design that I chose be suitable?

HENNABYAINI will have to shave the hair on the forearms if it gets in the way of the henna design. This is mandatory because oftentimes henna paste would just sit on top of the hair, and it would not be in contact with the skin. If you would like to do that before the appointment, feel free to, otherwise, just take note that we will be doing it for you! 

 

Can I schedule my bridal appointment after Isya' as I need t do my prayers before the henna.

 

We understand how this may be a priority for some of our muslim brides and we will recommend starting the appointment after Maghrib, so that our brides can perform their prayers right before Subur.
