Simple Finger Mehndi Design with Gol Tikki, Hearts and Jaal

Measured from this photo

• About 31% of the skin in the photo is covered in henna: less ink than 71% of the 1,153 foot designs we have measured.
• By area: fingers 34%, palm or back of the hand 26%, wrist and arm 16%.
• A typical line is about 3.1 mm wide, so you would want a cone with a wider tip, or more pressure.
• Laid end to end, the lines come to about 1.2 m of henna across 2 hands.
• 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.
