In India, we have a tradition of applying henna on auspicious occasions. They are an integral part of our marriages and many other events. Henna paste is usually applied on the skin using a plastic cone, a paint brush or a stick. Beautiful designs are made. It's like an art, some people master it.
Do you apply henna in your hands? Do you like it?
P.S - Pic from google:)

I do not apply Henna, however, my wife loves? to apply Henna on special occasions such as marriages and some festivals. Now a days professional people are available to apply Henna in our area. They charge something like Rs.50-100 per hand.

@shaynas Yeah, since childhood girls get fascinated with henna and they enjoy applying it since childhood and when they grow older the fascination increases and henna is used as one of the accessories to look good and attractive.

@dpk262006 I feel when i was growing up, henna was more in practice. I remember my folks applying it for smallest of reasons. we used to too though it was not allowed in schools 
Now with busy lives, even that is decreasing. I feel it's years since i applied last. Though i like it.
