I’m not someone that’s ever written a bad review, but here we go because it was my wedding day and all I got to do was feel bad about how I looked. It sucks when guests say your makeup is cakey, but it sucks more when you don’t feel good about yourself on the most important day of your life! She did a initial meeting before the wedding and I literally created a pdf of looks I wanted and shared it with her as well after our discussion, leaving her very little room for error. And she charges 25k for HD makeup, so my expectations were obviously very high and i was so convinced I’d look good. But on the day of Varapooja, I looked the worst I’ve ever looked. My eyebrows were done very badly, makeup was so cakey that people actually asked me why it was so bad, she was in such a hurry and didn’t spend sufficient time despite knowing how unhappy I was. My mom was also very very disappointed with the way she looked. And my mom requested for some changes and she did not heed to it. Her assistants Pushpa and another lady were very unprofessional. I don’t want to get into the nasty details but just NO. So basically that night I was freaking out and crying because the next day was my wedding and I was convinced I’m gonna look bad. Next morning she came late and I told her a zillion things and monitored my makeup step by step and it turned out okay. Atleast people didn’t say I looked bad, so that’s good I guess? But I was still very unhappy because she did a terrible job with my hair, it came apart after a few hours and the hairstyle she did was not even remotely close to what I asked her to do. And she was in a hurry as usual and didn’t agree to make any changes that I wanted. Trust me, I know I could’ve looked better. She did a terrible unfinished job and demanded payment moments before I was going to get married - can you believe that? I had to tell her I don’t have my phone and will pay her the next day. Added to this, my saree change was a madisar drape and she agreed to do it when we spoke for the first time. But she didn’t do it and asked her assistant to drape it for me and she did not know how to drape it! Unbelievable! I had to send her a YouTube video on the morning of my wedding so that she could learn it in the next one hour. And obviously her assistant didn’t do a great job with the madisar draping. Her assistant was super creepy and unprofessional. Again don’t want to get into the details here because it’s not pleasant. To end my terrible experience, she came across as very rude and unnecessarily arrogant. It’s not the way you treat anyone, let alone a bride on her big day. Thankfully I had another artist do my reception makeup, so that helped me feel good at the end of the day.
