Back Hand Mehndi Designs

The back of the hand is where mehndi is seen most – in photos, when you hold a glass or wear bangles. Back hand designs range from a single diagonal floral trail to jewellery-style patterns that look like a haath-phool connecting a ring to a bracelet. Because the skin on the back of the hand stains a little lighter than the palm, bold outlines and filled petals work especially well here.
