Origin of mehendi :The art of Mehendi has existed for centuries. The exact place of its origin is difficult to track because of centuries of people in different cultures moving through the continents and taking their art forms with them and therefore sharing their art with everyone along the way.The word mehndi is derived from the Sanskrit word mendhikā. Mehendi designs differ according to the cultural background of people in India, it is considered as a sign of prosperity and happiness. The usage of both the age. The use of mehndi and turmeric is described in the earliest Hinduism's Vedic ritual books. Haldi (staining oneself with turmeric paste) as well as mehndi are Vedic customs, intended to be a symbolic representation of the outer and the inner sun. Vedic customs are centered around the idea of "awakening the inner light"earlier people use to grind henna leaves with color boosting natural ingredients to prepare the paste. Today Henna cones are available, which are easy to use and especially they don’t smudge on the applier’s hands.

History of mehendi :The Mughals brought Mehendi to India as lately as the 12th century AD. As the use of Mehendi spread, its application methods and designs became more sophisticated. According to professional henna artist and researcher Catherine C Jones, the beautiful patterning prevalent in India today has emerged only in the 20th century. In 17th century India, the barber's wife was usually employed for applying henna on women. Most women from that time in India are depicted with their hands and feet hennaed, regardless of social class or marital status. The art of Mehendi has existed for centuries.

Mehendi tradition:Mehandi is the application of henna as a temporary form of skin decoration in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and the Maldives as well as by expatriate communities from those countries. This tradition also exist among some Arab Women particularly the Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf nationals.Many historical events say that Mehandi is the Art of Arabic Muslims who brought henna to India, where it has bloomed into its own exclusive art style. In Indian Mehandi, a person applies designs conventionally to a woman's hands and feet. For particularly auspicious occasions, men also apply Mehandi. The most auspicious occasion justifying Mehandi artwork is the Indian wedding, where both bride and bridegroom apply henna, as well as several members of the bridal party. Henna on any time symbolizes fruitfulness. At the wedding, henna artwork further represents the love between married couple.

Mehendi Occasions: Any cultural events wedding is ever complete without the Mehendi. Whichever part of the country the bride may be from, her hands are adorned with the lovely red hue of the mehendi. Mehndi decorations became fashionable in the West in the late 1990s, where they are sometimes called henna tattoos. Henna is typically applied during special occasions like weddings and Muslim festivals such as Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha as well as in Hindu festivals like Karva Chauth, Diwali, Bhaidooj and Teej People apply mehndi in India during religious celebrations, like the hindu new year Diwali, as well as during weddings. At weddings in India, all the women gather at a mehndi party, 2 days before the wedding ceremony, to apply their mehndi -- so, not only is mehndi a beautification process, but it is a very social bonding experience as well. Bridal mehndi, which covers the hands up to the elbows and the feet up to the knees, can take at least 8 hours to complete -- and this time certainly does not include the time it takes to dry! While the bride is waiting, the women at the party spend the time singing songs and making jokes (in general) about the bride and her groom. Traditionally, in large cities only women apply mehndi, but at some very auspicious occasions young boys are permitted to apply it.

How to apply henna : Nowadays, cones and jacquard bottles are the most popular method to apply henna paste or Mehndi. But the most favorite tool among the users is a cone made of rolled plastic, similar to a cake decorating tube, with a tiny hole at the end. With the help of cone one can make incredibly fine lines and detailed designs. Mehndi also comes ready-made in tubes; these containers provide an easy method of mehndi application, but often henna in these forms will lack a smooth consistency, and most professional artists avoid ready-made pastes because it is impossible to discern ingredients added.
