Pakistan has a reputation of being a hub of art and culture, preserving age old traditions in craftsmanship and artistry. One of the traditional arts of this country is mehandi, which involves decorating hands and feet with intricate designs created by natural dye of henna leaves, crushed and prepared into a paste, which leaves temporary color on the skin. Mehandi stands for festivities and is applied on auspicious occasions such as weddings, birth ceremonies and festivals like Eid.
Pakistani Mehandi is acclaimed for its beautiful and unique designing, which are varied from occasion to occasion. Traditionally, you will find two types of designing in Pakistani mehandi- the first one which is similar to Indian mehandi design and the second one which involves the use of black mehandi. Pakistani mehandi designs combine the best of Indian and Arabic designs, making it a splendid combination of the two.
