Aesthetic Arabic Front Hand Mehndi Design with Gol Tikki and Jaal for Eid

Measured from this photo

• About 35% of the skin in the photo is covered in henna: less ink than 73% of the 2,300 front hand designs we have measured.
• By area: fingers 53%, palm or back of the hand 30%, wrist and arm 19%.
• A typical line is about 1.5 mm wide, so you would want a cone with a fine tip.
• Laid end to end, the lines come to about 3.7 m of henna across 2 hands.
• It has about 13 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.

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.
