About mehndi

Mehndi is a traditional form of body art, originating in India, in which designs are created on the skin
using a paste made from the powdered leaves of the henna plant.It is commonly applied during festivals, weddings,
and special occasions.

Mehndi typically lasts anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks, depending on your skin type, how well you take care of
it, and the quality of the henna paste used. The color usually starts as an orange-brown shade and deepens over
a day or two into a darker reddish-brown.

Natural henna is generally safe for most skin types, but it’s always advisable to do a small patch test
before applying it over large areas of your skin. Avoid “black henna” as it may contain harmful chemicals that can
cause allergic reactions.

To make your mehndi last longer, follow these tips:

  • Avoid washing the area for at least 12 hours after application.
  • Apply a mixture of lemon juice and sugar to the dried mehndi to keep it moisturized and help it darken.
  • Keep the paste on for as long as possible (at least 6-8 hours).
  • Avoid excessive water exposure, especially in the first 48 hours.

Mehndi is traditionally applied during weddings, festivals (like Diwali, Eid, and Karva Chauth), baby
showers, and other cultural celebrations. It symbolizes joy, beauty, and good fortune in many cultures.
