Gorgeous Front Hand Mandala Mehndi Design for Front Hand

A striking front hand mehndi design tailored for the palm, featuring crescent motif and bracelet cuff. Rated as Expert, this pattern is perfect for everyday.

The palm has the thickest skin on the hand, so henna stains darkest here. Keep the hand open and relaxed while the paste dries so the lines do not crack or smudge. This is a detailed pattern usually done by an experienced artist; allow plenty of time and work in small sections.

The palm is the traditional placement for mehndi and gives the darkest stain on the body. A round mandala in the centre of the palm, often called a tikki, is one of the oldest and best-known layouts.

Application tips: Leave the paste on for at least four to six hours; the longer it stays, the deeper the stain. Dab a lemon and sugar mixture on the dried paste to keep it moist and stuck to the skin.
