The Origin Story

I’m Sunita — a first-generation British Indian, mother of two, henna artist, henna coach, henna supplier and founder of Mehndi Seasons.
What began as a childhood passion, lovingly nurtured by my mother when she encouraged me to create my first bridal mehndi at the age of twelve, has blossomed into a lifelong devotion to the art of henna.
Raised among strong women and steeped in rich cultural traditions, I never imagined this creative spark would one day become a fulfilling career — one that allows me to stay close to my children and family while doing what I love most. Through Mehndi Seasons, I honour both heritage and artistry, blending tradition with elegance to create meaningful, timeless designs.
What began as a simple creative outlet evolved naturally into a full-time calling — a journey shaped by gratitude, purpose, and a deep love for this beautiful art form.

The Henna Journey

My journey with henna began in 2004, when I started offering party bookings — a creative passion that quickly grew into something more. By 2007, as bookings expanded to include corporate events and festivals, I balanced my artistry alongside a full-time job.
In 2008, I embraced bridal henna, and soon my intricate, personalised designs became sought after across Leeds and other areas across West Yorkshire. By 2010, bridal work had become my primary focus, and Mehndi Seasons began to take shape.
After the birth of my first daughter later that year, I reduced my working hours to host henna workshops and introduce my own natural henna cones. In 2015, following the arrival of my second daughter, I made the decision to leave full-time employment and devote myself fully to Mehndi Seasons — a brand built on artistry, authenticity, and connection.

Launching Mehndi Seasons

In 2015, Mehndi Seasons emerged as a natural extension of my artistry — a brand dedicated to the craft and integrity of traditional henna. Each product is thoughtfully handmade and refined through years of experience, created for artists and henna lovers who value purity, quality, and timeless elegance.

Product Highlights

Since 2015, Mehndi Seasons has continued to evolve through a series of thoughtful innovations designed to support artists and celebrate the art of henna. It began with our Fresh Henna Cones, made from the finest Rajasthani henna and blended with premium essential oils for exceptional consistency and deep, lasting stains.
In 2017, the Henna Artist Resting Cushion (HARC) was introduced — a much needed tool in the henna industry which was missing – a cushion to provide support & comfort during henna application. The HARC quickly became a favourite among artists across the UK and beyond, even inspiring a new trend in India.
A year later came the Henna Mixing Kit, empowering artists to create their own paste with confidence, followed by the Aftercare Trio Bundle in 2019 — featuring our handcrafted Henna Balm in Rose, Lavender, and Sandalwood, a vegan and ultra-moisturising formula that enhances stain depth while nourishing the skin.
By 2020, the launch of our e-commerce platform took Mehndi Seasons global, bringing our carefully curated range of henna products to artists and enthusiasts around the world.

Where Henna Art Meets the World

From film sets to international stages, Mehndi Seasons has brought henna into the spotlight — featured on the BBC’s ‘Doctor Who’ and the UK–international film ‘Lies We Tell’.
Sunita’s artistry has travelled globally, from teaching at the ‘Henna Con’ in Los Angeles to creating bespoke destination bridal henna for weddings abroad, bringing Mehndi Seasons to celebrations of love across continents.
