Well, it doesn't end here, there are some more classical stories behind henna.
The History of Mehndi
Since ancient times we have been using Mehndi for numerous purposes. From medicinal value to commercial body art and as a regular cooling down herb, it was treated as a magical wand for ages. The core uses of henna had been in the hands of the bride-to-be. Widely known in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Assam, South Asian countries, and also a few of the western countries like South Africa, Arab, and others, the perspective is different for applying mehndi but the usage remained the same by all to beautify the hands and body. The interesting fact is that the Henna plant was scientifically called Lawsonia inermis, whose dry leaves are used to make mehndi that was specially designed for the enrichment of hands and body, for both men and women. Egyptians used to decorate the hands with mehndi and then slowly the patterns and art came into existence with flowers, moon, peacock, bold strokes, dots, and many others. The innovation and creation played a major role in bringing the mehndi into the limelight, which is why today we have eight types of mehndi designs with diversification in pattern and motifs to adore them. The types are as follows:
1. Moroccan mehndi designs
2. Western-style mehndi designs
3. Indian mehndi designs
4. Pakistani mehndi designs
5. Arabic mehndi designs
6. Indo Arabic mehndi designs
7. Indo Western mehndi designs
8. African mehndi designs
