Arabic on the palm

Run the main floral from the base of the palm near the little finger up toward the index finger, or centre one large rose and let two leaves trail to opposite fingers. Fingertip caps on two or three fingers finish it without filling the hand.

Application takes 25 to 40 minutes. Because the palm stains darkest, you can keep the shading lighter than on the back hand.

Frequently asked questions

Does Arabic mehndi look good on the palm?

Yes, and it stains darker than on the back of the hand. Keep the same open spacing so the design does not turn into a full fill.

How do I keep an Arabic palm design from smudging?

Keep the hand slightly cupped and still for the first 20 minutes, and sleep with a loose cotton glove if the paste is on overnight.
