Henna on the forearm stains lighter than on the palm because the skin is thinner. Arm designs are easier to apply on someone else than on yourself, especially past the wrist. This is a detailed pattern usually done by an experienced artist; allow plenty of time and work in small sections.

Mandala means circle in Sanskrit, and mandala mehndi is built from rings of petals and patterns around a central point. A mandala in the centre of the palm or the back of the hand is one of the most recognisable mehndi layouts.

Application tips: Wash and dry the skin before application and skip lotion or oil, which block the dye. Keeping the skin warm while the paste is on helps the colour develop.
