About
Born and raised on the west side of Fiji, Minal’s love for henna began in a traditional Indo-Fijian household where she learned the art from her mother at just 10 years old. By the age of 15, she had already completed her first bridal henna — the beginning of a lifelong journey in this art form.
In 2010, she turned her passion into a full-time career and has since built a thriving bridal henna business while teaching and mentoring artists along the way. Known for her smooth paste and refined bridal style, Minal focuses on sharing practical techniques that artists can immediately apply to their work.
Now based in the United States, she has worked with brides across the world including Australia, Canada, Dominican Republic, England, Fiji, Mexico, New Zealand, and Panama.
