Mehndi is a sort of natural dye which is used for temporary body art and painting in various parts of the world. Different parts of the world have their own mehndi styles. The most common mehndi designs are Indian mehndi designs, Pakistani mehndi designs, Arabic mehndi designs and African mehndi styles.
Arabic mehndi designs are among the most popular styles of mehndi around the world, and nowadays are very common. Arabic mehndi design (or in short, Arabic) is a term which is primarily used to describe floral patterns that include flower, stem, leaf, petal, etc.These designs are usually composed of large simple floral patterns enhancing the beauty of hand and feet of the women.[gallery link="file" columns="2" orderby="rand"]
These patterns are generally sketched with bold floral designs, and applied only on one side of the hands and feet. It means it is not necessary that these designs cover whole hands or feet. Unlike the Indian designs, Arabic patterns leave more skin showing. Usually, animal and human figures are not painted. While the Indian designs consist of several small shapes, the Arabic patterns contain many large shapes with large patches which obviously give a bold and prominent reflection.
