Full Hand Mehndi Designs

292 designs

A full hand mehndi design covers the palm or back of the hand from the finger tips to the wrist – and often up to the elbow. It is the classic choice for festivals like Teej and Karwa Chauth and for close family at a wedding. Full hand designs look best when they are built in sections: a central motif, a band or border, and finger patterns that tie everything together.

Tips for full hand mehndi designs

  • Divide the hand into three zones: fingers, palm and wrist.
  • Repeat one motif in each zone so the whole hand feels connected.
