Mehndi vs Mayoun

Re: Mehndi vs Mayoun

i think mayouns tend to be a totally minimal event, as in no make up simple look, i think the flower jewellery will look nice on the mehndi, it depends some girls have them on both events, maybe do the flower jewels on mayoon and on mend just go for a nice big round teeka with your laacha and a nice fishtail plait, with some gerbera daisies pinned in between

I love the fishtail so I’m thinking of doing that for the mayoun with the lacha. Then for the mehndi do no real jewelry and only do flower earrings, flower braceletes and flower tied around my hair. The tikka is the only thing I’m iffy about. Whether I want one with flowers/a real one/or none at all.

I think that the right hairstyle and jewellery completely depends on how you want to drape your dupatta… does that make sense? so the more cloth you’re bringing forward the less hair should be forward around your arms and neck, the more the hair (and hair flowers) should be kept neat or minimal…

Personally I had a braided bun on the mayoun (because ubtan is messy and i didn’t want my hair in the way at all) with simple makeup and full on flower jewellery.
Then on the mehendi I had a paranda with flowers braided around it and flower hoop earrings and a crystal jhumar and full arabic eye makeup (because I was going for a different more formal look). But it’s totally up to you.

I wanted a ghoongat for the mehndi but the dupatta fabric isn’t sheer enough and I still want my face in pics (vain I know ) so now I’m debating just having it on my head far enough so you can see my face and hair and stuff.
