Cone Making Guide: Rolling a Cone That Never Leaks
From cutting the sheet to cutting the tip โ the full professional cone process.
The difference between the two most popular styles โ and when to use each.
Indian style
Dense, detailed, covering the whole hand. Fine lines, jaali, motifs and figures. It takes longer โ which makes it ideal for bridal work.
Arabic style
Bold strokes, flowing vines and negative space. It is quicker to draw and reads clearly from a distance โ perfect for guests and functions.
Which to offer when
- Bridal booking โ Indian, with figures
- Sangeet or mehndi guests โ Arabic
- A client short on time โ Arabic
- A photography-heavy event โ Arabic with negative space
Both styles are covered in detail in Module 3 of the Basic Course.
