Clean your hands well and avoid lotions to ensure the mehendi clings to your skin for a deep, lasting colour.
Opt for fresh, natural mehendi for the best results. Check for quality brands that prioritise purity.
Mix mehendi with lemon juice and essential oils, then let it rest for a few hours for a richer dye release.
Apply the mehendi paste thickly and evenly to your hands for consistent and deeper colour results.
Allow mehendi to dry naturally for several hours. Avoid water for at least 6-8 hours for longer-lasting colour.
Warmth intensifies the colour. Dab a sugar-lemon mix on drying mehendi for extra depth and richness.
Once dried, scrape off mehendi without water and apply oil to lock in the deep, vibrant colour for longer.
