eid mehndi in the GTA

So where are you girls getting your eid mehndi done from? I know there’s Dimple and a few others in Scarborough, but I’m not really interested in anything too fancy. Just plain ol’ simple mehndi. I got married this summer and everyone in the family is making a big deal for me to get mehndi since this is my first eid since.

Please help. I live close to the Markham/Scarborough border. This lady mentioned another lady who does mehndi on chaand raat at this basement in karachi bazaar. I’m new in this area, so I’ve no idea where this place is and obviously, I was stupid enough to not ask that lady to elaborate on its location…

Where else can I go? What is everyone else doing? I’m sure there has to be some mehndi artists who put decent mehndi around this area who don’t take very long to do it too.
thanks!

Re: eid mehndi in the GTA

karachi bazaar is way ghetto- basically a lady on a stool, putting mehendi on, surrounded by rental videos and two or three kids lol
just so you know what to expect :)

Re: eid mehndi in the GTA

there is oleega beauty parlour run by a bobby singh i think.. she is really good for mehndi but i dont know if she has a mehndi artist this yr..

her address is 280 elson st in markham.. number is 905 471 0099.

and i second somegrooveychic… karachi bazar is beyond ghetto .. its the last place u want to spend chand raath or anytime really :bobo:

hello khawateen! thanks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much for your apt reply! I called up at this oleega salon and got an appointment and went for mehndi.
and I had the most awesome experience ever. This verrrrrrrrrrrrry nice gujrati lady did my mehndi and she's a permanent employee at this salon.

I asked her for a portfolio of some sort but she didn't have one and then obv i left it to her better judgement to do soemthing on my hand.. and voila...magic!

she was fast, amazingly talented and cheap!!!! like she took $5 to do one of those diagonal intricate strips + the fingers. noone i know in the GTA does that! atleast not anyone who puts their heart to it anyways.

apparently she's new here and doesn't have any inkling on how much money or exposure she could be getting. she also didn't seem high in her head to be thinking along those lines. was just very very nice and made my eid wonderful for me!

i would suggest anyone who hasn't gotten it done, or wants to get it done someday to give her a try. works at the oleega salon and her name was vibha.

Hey, I have been doing professional Mehndi for more than 10 years in Toronto specializing in bridal henna. I live in Markham (McCowan and Denison).
You can come to my place and get it done or if you organize a mehndi party/chand raat, I will take care of all your guests. I can send you my portfolio by email if you like :slight_smile:
I have done mehndi at Karachi Bazaar for guests for Eid in the past.
