The original practice uses a plant-based paste that stains the skin for one to three weeks, but many people want the patterns to last forever. Turning temporary henna into a permanent tattoo requires an artist who understands the tight spacing, symmetry, and flow that make mehndi patterns beautiful.

Combining the strong linework of traditional tattooing with contemporary shading and color theory, neo-traditional pieces feel both familiar and fresh. The style allows for more realistic proportions while keeping the iconic bold look.

The wrist offers a compact area that suits fine-line work, small symbols, and script. Its visibility means the tattoo becomes part of daily life, always in the wearer's line of sight.
