Simple Mehndi Design with Gol Tikki (4)

Measured from this photo

• About 31% of the skin in the photo is covered in henna: less ink than 72% of the 10,385 designs we have measured.
• By area: fingers 30%, palm or back of the hand 49%, wrist and arm 7%.
• A typical line is about 1.0 mm wide, so you would want a cone cut to a very fine tip.
• Laid end to end, the lines come to about 2.0 m of henna.
• It has about 9 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.
