Raya Aidilfitri is just around the corner. I bought these DIY mahendi online and thought wanna give it a try π
Do you know how much it will cost for 1 hand mahendi in 2015? RM 15 (3.44 USD) per hand. Yes, that price was in 2015, I believe it will be more now, in 2022. Do you know how much I bought all of these kit? RM 31.50 (7.23USD) and you can use the sticker template over and over again, and wherever you want π
I bought 3 varieties of the finger design, 1 overall hand design and of course the henna (chose natural henna). You can choose your own fav design, coz sometimes when I did mahendi outside, they make a different design from what I chose. Myb they simply don’t know how to draw it. IdkπΆ
So…..here we gOoOoooo…let’s start….ππ₯°
How to DIY your own mahendi π
First thing first, you gotta choose which template you wanna try and where to put on your body π I prepare some tissue, and cotton bud to apply henna on it. As you can see here, the packet is the original henna, where you need to mix it with water. But I want things easier π, so I just bought readymade henna in the small cup. Of course it will be cheaper if you mix it yourself, i think the cup and packet, cup double price then the packet and a lot of quantity πOkay, then you put on the sticker template on your hand like this. Don’t put henna on those..HH290..its the sticker code ya ππ Alright, now we use the cotton bud to apply henna on top of the sticker…π₯°Tadaa…make sure all template is well stick and apply on all sticker holes………..something like this….see..i dont put the HH290 henna, if not u gotta see it on your hand too..please ensure you alert on those π π
Okay, after you apply the henna, you gotta wait for few hours…or some people will leave it overnight. But hey, Im not gonna wait that long, I just leave it for 30min π. The more longer you wait, the more thick the color will be…βΊ
Okay, done for the hand part…let’s go to the finger part….
Hahaha…if you go to outside..most of them just lazy to design your hand. But me, I put on different design to my finger. You see, 3 different design on my fingers π. Okay, you gotta put it lower like this, so that 1/3 of your finger will cover by the henna..Apply the henna on top of the sticker template like this…Tadaaa..you see, the color is not that bright coz I just leave it for 30min π okay, I waited another 30min. I don’t have much time to wait..LOLTadaaaaa….overall view..well..not bad…not bad at allIts orange color. Henna got available in white, dark green, black, red…but I love orange color the most. Suit with my skin π₯°Jeng jeng….i just love it…different kind of design….π₯°π₯°π₯°
Okay guys, thats all Im sharing on how to make your own mahendi. Your own design, your own satisfaction. Till then guys…to be continue….
