How to cut mehndi cone?
As i got this cone in our area i have used for this experiment. You can find more brand in the market. Buy whichever you feel better brand in natural henna cone(not color cone or instant mehndi cone). I will explain later that type of cone.
For learning design on hands i have taken very simple design but it looks very nice and beautiful. See below design.At first you have to draw this design on plain paper using pencil and put on hand. Before doing design on hand, make a mixture of sugar(0.5) and lemon juice(1tsp).
After 2 hour i have scrubbed dried mehndi with coconut oil. I got light
orange color design and also applied coconut oil on this.
Finally got darken color within 6 hour. See the right side image.This darken color would be
minimum-2-3 days . After 3 days darken will be change into fade
color .My experiment is a common but this result would be change due to
people's SKIN TYPE, WEATHER and their LIFESTYLE.
TIPS AND TRICKS IN MENHDI
- Buy required mehndi material.
- Create your own mehndi design according to your drawing skill on plain paper.
- Before applying mehndi on hand you have to clean your hands using soap and water.Start from center of the palm of the hand.
- After It has dried little, apply lemon-suger onto mehndi design with finger or cotton ball.In my experiment I had kept two hour and applied lemon-suger juice one time only.But i got better result.This result depends upon weather and skin type . You may get better result in cool climate. Don't follow this on special occasion. If you have less timing, you can follow this rule. Otherwise you have to keep henna on hands overnight and You have to apply Lemon-suger juice 2 or 3 times.
- Never use soap washing to remove dried henna. This will prevent for getting darken color.
- Apply coconut oil or baby oil on dried henna and rub the dried mehndi and scrape it off with fingernail and then apply coconut oil or baby oil on orange color henna design.Then you have to wait for 5-10 minutes.Then wash with normal water. After dried henna has removed you can get only light orange color. Gradually this orange color will change into darken red color (within 6 hour). This darken color will be retain minimum 2 -3 days according to your LIFESTYLE AND SKIN TYPE.Then it will be fade away.
- Timescale for keeping mehndi on hands is minimum - 2hour, 4, 6, maximum -8hr(this will change quality of henna and weather). Timescale for getting darken color is minimum -30 minutes and max-6hour. Timescale for retaining darken henna on hands is minimum-2days and maximum-it is dependent upon your lifestyle,skin type and henna's quality .
- You may apply little lemon juice on hands before applying henna.
