Henna for Eid
I just got home from doing henna / mehndi for Eid! I've been wanting to do henna for Eid for years now, but since it always coincides so closely with Christmas or the end of school, I'm usually away and/or insanely busy... not so this year!
The hostess and her family and friends were incredibly kind... they were definitely some of my favorite clients ever! They fed me yummy lamb and bday cake and generally made me feel really welcomed and appreciated, so I totally cut them a deal... I think I charged them a bit less than half what I should have. And now I remember what it's like to be having so much fun doing henna that you don't care about the money... I think it was good I slowed down with accepting appointments for a while... it makes me appreciate the few good ones I do take all the more!
But that said, I expect henna stuff to be back in full swing in May (after the semester is over), with a few events leading up to it to get me going again (like May Fair in Harvard Square).
Here are the photos!!!
