FAQs About 50+ Wedding Dulhan Mehndi Designs to Flaunt on Your Big Day

Q: Is henna exclusively applied to the palm and foot?

Mehndi is traditionally applied to women’s hands and feet (and men’s in certain communities) for special events like weddings. Depending on your test and needs, it can now be applied anywhere in the body thanks to modern trends. To view a variety of henna designs applied to every part of the body, visit our interactive gallery:

Q: What is the significance of Mehendi?

Mehndi is considered essential and auspicious in Indian weddings and some old sayings, also sometimes referred to as henna, say it is a paste that brings luck and good vibes. In Indian wedding tradition, the bride is wished good health and prosperity on her journey to marriage with a mehndi ceremony the night before the wedding. In rituals, mehendi is considered very auspicious.

Q: What is the duration of the henna color? How do I keep the henna color dark for a long time?

Depending on your skin type and how much you wash the area where the henna was applied, the color of your henna usually fades in one to three weeks. We recommend using less soap and washing the body parts where henna is applied less frequently to extend the color of the henna.
