About V Heiland

Topeka's Henna Artist

How It All Started

As a Kid

When I was 6 years old living in India, my mom did henna on me all the time. However one day she was too busy, so I tried it myself and have never looked back. Henna is an artform I've honed for decades.

I enjoy creating designs for clients as much as they like receiving them. Henna is a life-long passion that I get to share with others, it's a beautiful thing.

Why I Started

Essential Henna

It was always a dream of mine to be a full-time henna artist. My mission is to provide every client the best henna experience possible.

The name "Essential Henna" was inspired by my natural home-made henna. There are no additives, chemicals, or preservatives in my henna paste. It's just the essential ingredients that make it so special.

Henna is

my self-confidence, my therapeutic art, my culture, my tradition, my passion, my drive to be an entrepreneur, and most importantly a way to connect with other human beings and share something unique and personal."
