About Makeup & Hair Academy

Why We Started Teaching

I’m Manali (along with my mom, Hema Batwal). Makeup’s been our life for ages, and we wanted to share everything we know. We built this academy for anyone keen to turn makeup skills into a career, not just a hobby. It’s not all glam - it takes practice, hustle, and heart.

What We Teach

• Pro bridal makeup course: Go from zero experience to creating bridal looks that actually work in real life, not just on Instagram.
• Saree draping class, hair styling, and self-grooming - all in one place, so you don’t miss out on any client.
• Look-focused workshops for quick skill upgrades, and short masterclasses if you’re already in the game but want to learn the latest tricks.
• International makeup techniques, but also traditional stuff like Maharashtrian bride looks - “Diste chandra chi kor saajri” (as pretty as the crescent moon, you know?).

Real Practice, Real People

• Hands-on makeup training every day. No boring theory, no dummy heads.
• We provide all the products for class, so you can experiment without the stress.
• Professional portfolio shoot to kickstart your profile - we want you to look pro from Day 1.
• 6-month internship included in our long course for real client experience.

What Happens After

If you’re good, you might just end up assisting us on the field - or maybe even join our team. We’ll help you build your brand, work social media, and figure out how to get those first paying clients.

Bappa’s blessings, and a lot of support from us.
