1) Have you done weddings during this pandemic?
2) What are the measures you have implemented as per government guidelines to ensure the safety of clients?
- A signed self-declaration of medical and travel history by clients when entering the salon.
- Full body sanitization of staff and clients upon their entry into the salon.
- Clients are given one-time use – aprons and gowns before the service.
- No contact temperature checks at salon entry for clients and staff.
- Foot sanitization dispensers stands are placed at all locations of the salon.
- Regular and frequent sanitization of the premises after every client service.
- Use of PPE kits, gloves, and face shields while performing services, as far as possible.
- Only allowing a restricted number of clients at any one time in the salon.
- Sensitization of salon staff to maintain social distance at the salon and at home, educating them for maintaining self cleanliness, washing hands regularly, and using sanitizers.

Says Aradhana Khanna
I have always been a believer of less is more and with these times and the weddings becoming more intimate I would highly suggest natural, subtle looks with light foundations or BB creams and more emphasis on one feature in this case eyes and keeping flushed cheeks and lips depending on the outfits, yet not forgetting that it is the biggest day of her life and creating magic for her.
4) Do you think brides would still prefer Makeup artists from different cities or would they go in for local ones? Also, would you travel during this time to help brides get ready?
Says Manisha
I think that brides would prefer any makeup artist including those from another city provided that they ensure 100% safety and hygiene practices and standards. I am sure that all brides would expect their artists to follow all the necessary precautions and guidelines, maintain a safe distance, and also make use of PPE and other necessary equipment. I would certainly travel as soon as restrictions are lifted, naturally after taking all the precautionary measures.
