This past week I had few Clients for different occasions.  I’ll tell you about the one’s I have photos of.

Linda was going to the Gala of her foundation, so she wanted to wear Luxe Glow for this special occasion for her.  I met Linda at an event last year, she saw my work and loved it and remembered me for this year’s event

Then I had Anisha, who was getting married over Memorial Day Weekend in Vermont.  She contacted me couple of month ago and was trying to figure out the whether she wanted to get her mehndi done in Manhattan or in Vermont.  I’m so glad she decided to do in Manhattan, traveling to VT is a long trip and would have costed  a lot more.  Even though it was a last minute the timing worked out perfectly.  Her fiance was German and he had many of his family and friends traveled in from Europe so it was an interesting henna night we had at her apartment.  I finished my job with a great selection of cheese, bread and fruits :).  It was delicious (it was too good I ate a bit too much I had a tummy ache for a bit :O stupid me..). Ok enough about my tummy ache,  here’s her bridal mehndi.

Oh, the last but not the least, I finally tried out copper I got from Wendy :),  I love it! it shows better on my skin.  Thank you Wendy!

“Akiyo is fantastic!! She is an extraordinary henna artist and a superb
professional. She arrives exactly on time, ready to get to work and does an
amazing job of managing many, many people who want to be adorned with her
incredibly beautiful henna artwork. And her work really is “art”. She works
quickly and precisely and creates everything freehand while adding her own
unique artistic flair. But more importantly, she is a delight to be around
and is so easy to work with. I am trying to figure out what event I can
create to have her come back to us!”
