Getting your mehndi design done professionally from a parlor sure sounds good but nothing beats the joy and fun of doing your mehndi on your own!

I used to love sneaking left over mehndi cones from my Mom's bedside on Eid or other functions and used to draw shapeless patterns on my palms. My love for Mehndi was what got me practicing it over the years until now when I have finally mastered it. Few years back when my elder sister got married, I was her mehndi artist and I just can't explain the sheer joy of showcasing my Henna art on a real bride!! :D

These mehndi designs require very less time and are simple ones which add a hint of colour to your hands without giving you a cluttered feel.
