"My husband and I both had our mendhi created by soma the night before our wedding. We had a big party and all of our bridal party received some as well! Soma was very accomidating, creative and a fun addition to our night! I highly recomend her! Our photos were amazing!"

"What a wonderful time we had! Soma brings her bright personality along with great Hennaskills. Her prices cannot be better. It was a fun evening! I would call Soma again and again:)"
-Stacey S.
"Soma was not only friendly but also very informative! My friend and I got henna done by her on New Years Eve. Soma was happy to meet somewhere convenient for us and she explained the process, history and tradition of henna each step of the way. It was an awesome experience and we look forward to meeting up with her again soon! Highly recommended!"

"Soma is awesome! Soma did henna for my wedding rehearsal dinner/Mehndi party. Her rates are really reasonable, and her mehndi art is really beautiful-- she does everything freehand, and works really quickly. I'm not Indian (my husband is), so I didn't really know what exactly to request for a Mehndi party when I reached out to Soma; she was so helpful and really put me at ease. And both sides of our family were really impressed with the henna results and enjoyed the whole experience. Soma's also really nice and easy-going. Highly recommended".

"Soma is amazing at what she does! Her henna artwork is beautiful and she creates such a relaxed environment. As she draws she often shares some insight about the culture of henna and why people do it, which I really appreciated. She offers an array of patterns and sizes so you get get exactly what you are looking for. Additionally, you can't beat her prices. Other artists jack up their costs, but Soma makes it affordable to everyone! Highly recommend visiting her at an event or booking her for your next party".

"I've received henna from Soma a number of times over the past few years. She creates beautiful, intricate designs every time and her pricing for her lovely designs are beyond reasonable. I always receive compliments after having henna done by her. She is truly an artist in her craft and I recommend her for all your Mehndi needs".

"I’ve gone to Soma twice now, starting with a small design then getting two large ones. She does beautiful work, and what sets her apart from some order vendors is that I really do feel like she is sharing her culture with me, not just going through the motions. Plus she’s just generally nice to chat with! I’d highly recommend her for any occasion - either one time work or for a party/event".

"Just had mehndi done tonight at the 21+ event at the Carnegie Science Center--my first time! She's charming and personable, as well as open and welcoming. Never once did I feel rushed, and at the same time, I never felt like her asides about aftercare or the culture surrounding mehndi made the waiting process tedious. Instead, I felt myself drawing nearer to listen and soak up everything she had to say. What a wonderful and calming experience it is to watch artwork be painlessly applied to your skin! This would be perfect for a bachelorette party or a girl's (or guys!) night. In fact, there's very few gatherings I can think of in which having henna done would be inappropriate.
As far as the artwork, despite the obvious time constraints, her work is still very detailed and has a beautiful flow that complements wherever the piece is applied. I wish I had more time with her to have a larger piece or pieces!
Ultimately, I don't have a single negative thing to say. Each piece she does is unique and gorgeous. She's personable and knowledgeable and her henna could be easily used as fun bonding in numerous scenarios".

"My son and I met Soma 7 years ago at a Street fair in Highland Park . She had a little table set up . We both went over to see what she was doing and to my delight I finally found someone doing Henna . We both got small designs that day falling in love with how friendly Soma was with us . Every time we were able to find her doing henna we tried to find a way to get some done . Every time we go it's always unique and beautiful and lasts at least a week. Her talents are limitless, her knowledge and love for what she does makes the experience great and well . She is patient, and kind when your at her table you feel at ease she has a inner beauty that spills out into what she does . My son is now 18 and still asks to get henna done".
