About this collection
What makes the bride's mehndi different from guests'
Bride-specific mehndi covers both hands to the elbows and both feet to the knees in full bridal tradition. The bride's pattern is always the most ornate at the event — heavier coverage, finer detail, and often a hidden groom's name woven into the jaal.
Common questions
How long does a mehndi design last? +
A well-applied mehndi design lasts one to three weeks. Palm-side and sole skin holds the deepest stain (two to three weeks); the back of the hand and feet stain lighter and fade in about a week. Heat, moisture, and exfoliation all shorten the stain.
How do I make the stain darker? +
Leave the paste on for at least six hours, ideally overnight. Skip moisturiser before applying — it blocks the dye. Once the paste is dry, dab a lemon-sugar mix to keep it sealed. Avoid water for the first 24 hours after scraping the paste off.
Can I draw this myself? +
For simple-tagged and easy-tagged designs, yes — practise the silhouette on paper first, hold the cone like a pen with the tip just off the skin, and start with a design that has open negative space rather than dense filling. Royal-tagged designs need a steady, practised hand.
