My henna story
1:36 PM
After graduation, I wanted to learn a skill, I thought of all the skills that were common around me (catering,fashion designing, hair dressing, and others), but I didn't just like them, no passion. So my sister suggested henna art, I was like huh? Henna art? Me? No way. I don't like drawing henna on myself, so why would I learn it? She said you would love it, so I gave it a thought, and I said, let's give this a try, and that was how I started learning, that was in 2014. Although I love anything art, But learning henna art has never once crossed my mind.
And believe me, the experience was awesome, I started from drawing with pencil, I made lots of mistakes, I will erase and draw again. Little by little, I started to pick up. But it wasn't easy. Later, I started practicing with cone, My henna teacher would tell me to fill the customers' nail, come and see how my hand will be shaking (I wish I did some video then), apart from hands shaking, I was very slow, my teacher would have almost finished a design, and I will still be on the nails (laughing at myself). But with everyday practice, I kept improving, I will draw on my sisters' hand, practice on cardboards and like that, like that, I improved. Now I draw henna for myself(on my hand and legs), I draw henna for people and I also do henna crafts. Although, I can't say particularly when my henna designs made a turn around, but I know that I have improved greatly, and it was only due to practice and patience.
Now tell us your henna stories.
