Bold Eid Circular Medallion Mehndi Design for Back Hand

A beautiful eid mehndi design tailored for the back of the hand, featuring crescent motif and petal arrangement. Rated as Hard, this pattern is perfect for Karva Chauth.

Skin on the back of the hand is thinner than the palm, so the stain is usually lighter and fades sooner. Leaving the paste on for longer helps the colour develop. This pattern needs steady pressure control and fine line work, so it is best attempted after practising simpler designs.

On Chaand Raat, women and girls gather at home or visit market stalls where artists apply quick designs late into the night. Because many people get their mehndi done in one evening, Eid designs are usually quicker and lighter than bridal ones.

Application tips: Keep the paste on overnight if you can, wrapping the hand loosely so the design does not smudge while you sleep. Leave the paste on for at least four to six hours; the longer it stays, the deeper the stain.
