Measured from this photo
- About 35% of the skin in the photo is covered in henna: less ink than 69% of the 2,713 back hand designs we have measured.
- By area: fingers 25%, palm or back of the hand 56%, wrist and arm 34%.
- A typical line is about 2.1 mm wide, so you would want a cone with a wider tip, or more pressure.
- Laid end to end, the lines come to about 2.1 m of henna across 2 hands.
- It has about 11 separate dots.
- More than half of the ink is filled-in shapes rather than lines, so it needs a thicker paste and longer to dry.
