How can I darken my mehndi: Mehndi is one of the sixteen adornments of an Indian woman. It is traditionally applied on every festival in many states. There are many cultural, religious, and aesthetic reasons behind its application. Mehndi is especially applied to enhance the beauty of hands and feet. For example, mehndi is an important ritual in Indian weddings. Similarly, women also apply mehndi on the festival of Teej. This year Hartalika Teej is being celebrated today i.e. on 6 September.
There is a crowd near the mehndi artists in the market and people are standing in queues. In such a situation, women who apply mehndi at home often complain that the color of mehndi does not become very dark after applying it at home. So let us tell you some methods today which will make the color of mehndi darker.
Quality of Mehndi:
It is important to always use good quality mehandi. If you use old mehandi, it is possible that the color may not be deep.
Mehendi paste:
Preparing the mehndi paste in the right way is also the first step to applying dark mehndi. While making the mehndi paste, add lemon juice, sugar and water to the powder. Preparing the mehndi paste with lemon juice and sugar makes the color darker. If you make the paste in an iron vessel and keep it in it for a few hours, the color of the mehndi will become dark.
How to apply mehndi:
Before applying mehendi, clean your hands and feet thoroughly and do not use oil or cream. Leave the mehendi on for 4-6 hours or overnight. The longer you keep it on, the darker the color will be.
After drying:
After the mehendi dries, you can apply sugar, lemon juice or even smoke cloves on it. Then when the mehendi dries again, avoid using hot water and soap and shake it off. After removing the mehendi paste after it dries, do not apply water or oil on it. By doing this, the color of the mehendi will become dark within some time.
After applying mehendi, keep the hands and feet in a warm place so that the color can darken. By following these tips you can get dark and long-lasting mehendi.
