Front Hand Mehndi Design with Figures for Karwa Chauth

Measured from this photo

• About 51% of the skin in the photo is covered in henna: more ink than 70% of the 2,300 front hand designs we have measured.
• By area: fingers 65%, palm or back of the hand 61%, wrist and arm 26%.
• A typical line is about 1.6 mm wide, so you would want a cone with a fine tip.
• Laid end to end, the lines come to about 2.3 m of henna.
• More than half of the ink is filled-in shapes rather than lines, so it needs a thicker paste and longer to dry.

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.
