Eid Henna Mahendi Designs


What is Mahendi?
The word Mehdi is derived from the Sanskrit word, Mehdi decorations became fashionable.it is also called henna.  Mahendi is the is necessary thing for the Muslim bridals. Without it’s a bridal or a girl in wedding seen incomplete. Mahendi color will be darkest because the skin contains higher levels of keratin which binds temporarily to Lawson, the colorant of henna. Henna was originally used as a form of decoration mainly for brides.


Now days, people buy readymade Mahendi cones, which are ready to use and make design. However, in rural areas, women grind fresh henna leaves on sill (grinding stone) with added oil, which though not as refined as professionally prepared Mahendi cones, brings much darker colors.
We can use Mahendi on arms, hands, back, feet etc. in Mahendi a girl looks nice beautiful.  Girls put the Mahendi on their hands with the great desires.
Mahendi can also use for the hairs, for dry hairs. Mahendi makes our hairs healthy shiny and smooth…. Mahendi is best thing for the medication of hairs.
In Muslims countries, Mahendi is very necessary for the functions, parties and weddings especially for girls.  Mahendi is the Sunat for Muslims.
On Eid a girl make the Mahendi for eid or buy a readymade Mahendi (henna cones).



Henna cones or Mahendi cones…. Especially Mahendi in the cones is the easiest way to make designs on hands, feet. Mahendi seems like a drawing on the hands line drawings. The old women make tikka Mahendi on their palm.
