Bold Pakistani Peacock Motif Mehndi Design for Full Hand

A sophisticated pakistani mehndi design providing full hand coverage, featuring mandala and ring pattern. Rated as Medium, this pattern is perfect for a party.

Full-hand designs run from the fingertips to the wrist, so allow extra time for application. Work from the wrist towards the fingers, or the other way round, so you never rest on wet paste. This pattern suits someone who is already comfortable with basic lines, dots and petals and wants to practise even spacing.

Pakistani designs often extend well past the wrists, sometimes reaching the elbows. The color yellow is deeply associated with Pakistani mehndi celebrations.

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.
