Mehendi is actually a dye made from Lawsonia inermis, the henna plant. The cooling effect of henna provides relief from stress, fever, and headache, so it’s said to calm the bride’s nerves when applied to their hands and feet and stay relaxed as they enter the new phase of life.
Mehendi party is often held the day before the wedding to beautify and bless the bride before their wedding day. In the Hindu tradition, mehendi is part of the sixteen bridal adornments, which is a ritual for the beautification of the bride from head to toe at the time of their wedding. Mehndi is also encouraged in the Muslim traditions as a hair dye or to beautify their hands.
