Whether you need clip-in extensions for extra bounce or waterproof, 12+ hour makeup that handles Mumbai's humidity, I bring the right prep to every booking. My work is about performance N finish. Having trained at the Brittany Beauty Academy in NYC, I focus on techniques that ensure your makeup N hair last from the first dance to the final photo. For hair, I prioritize volume N structure. I use root crimping, professional-grade heat tools, and high-quality extensions when needed. A messy floral bun needs to stay put, so I use the right pins N setting spray. For makeup, I focus on humidity-resistant primers N HD foundations that do not shift. My signature look relies on high-pigment smokey eyes designed to pop in photos N look sharp in person. I do not believe in cookie-cutter styles. We talk about your outfit, the venue, N your comfort level to build a look that actually works for you. ## About Sonal Shah I am Sonal, a makeup artist N hairstylist who trained in NYC. I strip away the drama N focus on the craft—clean lines, high-pigment eyes, N hair that actually holds its volume.
