Measured from this photo
- About 48% of the skin in the photo is covered in henna: more ink than 65% of the 2,713 back hand designs we have measured.
- By area: fingers 9%, palm or back of the hand 24%, wrist and arm 54%.
- A typical line is about 5.5 mm wide, so you would want a cone with a wider tip, or more pressure.
- Laid end to end, the lines come to about 21.8 m of henna.
Estimates read by our software from the photo itself. The angle, crop and lighting of a photo change them, so treat them as a guide.
