Title: The Everlasting Love between Henna and Indian Culture
1The Everlasting Love between Henna and Indian
Culture
2- Henna, popularly known as Mehndi in India, apart
from being considered an excellent herbal remedy
is a significant part of the culture irrespective
of religion, region or caste. It is one of the
several unifying factors that tie India in one
single thread of culture. Applying herbal henna
powder on hands, by forming a homogenous paste,
in intricate designs, patterns and motifs is a
celebrated art form in India and Middle Eastern
countries. Various designs from simple flowers to
complex palanquins, peacocks, banna- banni
(bride and groom caricatures) and roses are drawn
on hands filled with delicate shading. Mehndi is
applied by ladies on hands, feet and arms on
various festivals including Rakhi, Teej, Id- ul-
Fitr, Diwali, Karwachauth, Bhai dooj etc. Mehndi
that pays good colour off is considered sign of
prosperity and good luck. This is why Mehndi is
applied to both bride and bridegrooms hands as
well as feet. In fact applying henna is such an
integral part of marriage that a full fledged
ceremony is organized for this, known as Henna
night or Mehndi Rasm.

4- Henna that is applied to hands for decorative
purpose is different from the one used as herbal
remedy for hair or skin. In fact to colour
eyebrows there is specific Henna Spa for
Eyebrows. Henna gives strength to hair, nourishes
them and prevents hair fall. Organic HennaPowder
is used for this purpose and is generally mixed
with other herbs like Hibiscus, Brahmi, Indian
Gooseberry (Amla) etc. Henna used to create
temporary designs on hands is a bit different
from these types. Dry leaves of the aromatic
henna plant is plucked crushed and sieved to form
fine powder. This powder is soaked overnight to
form a free flowing paste. To enhance the colour
payoff Nilgiri Tel' is added to the mix. The
paste is filled in cones which are used as
pencils by experts in the Mehndi art to draw
beautiful patterns on body. After 2-3 hours when
the Mehndi has become completely dry, it is
scrubbed off (not washed) and ghee (clarified
butter) or pure coconut oil is applied on the
design. Usually the pattern stays on body for
good 10-15 days.
