Bridal Makeup in Amritsar — Brides & Pre-Bridal Packages

Our bridal makeup in Amritsar starts from ₹8,000, and it starts with a conversation rather than a price list. Before we quote you anything properly we want to know what functions you have, on what dates, what you are wearing, and what you actually want to look like — because a bride who wants to look like herself on a bright morning Anand Karaj and a bride who wants full glamour for an evening reception need two different artists’ plans, not two different prices.

We are a women-only studio on Basant Avenue, and Mehak personally handles bridal work.

Book early. Earlier than you think

Bridal makeup is the one service where being late costs you the artist. Wedding season in Amritsar fills months ahead, and the dates everyone wants go first. If you have a date, message us now even if nothing else is decided — we can hold the conversation open while the rest falls into place.

The consultation comes first

Your bridal consultation is a proper sitting, and it covers:

Out of that we build you a plan: which services you need, in what order, and on which dates. Every bride’s plan is different and none of it is off the shelf.

Your trial, and when to book it

We do a bridal trial, and there is a right time for it: after your jewellery and your outfit are finalised. Not before.

The reason is simple. A look that is beautiful in isolation can fight with your jewellery or sit wrong against the colour of your lehenga, and until those two things are decided a trial is guesswork. Bring the jewellery, or clear photographs of it, and the outfit or its fabric, to the trial. We will do the full look and adjust it with you until it is right, and then it is settled and you stop worrying about it.

What moves the price

Bridal and party makeup starts from ₹8,000. Where a specific booking lands depends on things we can only know once we have spoken:

We would rather give you an accurate number on WhatsApp after two minutes of questions than a vague one here. Message us with your dates and we will come back with a real quote.

Pre-bridal is a separate, longer conversation

Makeup is the last day. Your skin and hair are the three months before it, and that is where the visible difference is actually made. Our pre-bridal packages start from ₹18,000 and are customised entirely around your function dates — a planned course of facials, hair treatment, waxing, body work and nails, sequenced so each one lands at the right distance from the right event.

Every Nakhra bride also gets a personalised at-home routine for her skin and her hair, written for her, to follow in the weeks running up. That routine does more for how you look on the day than anything we can apply in the morning.

One thing we tell every bride: book your hair spa for after all your functions are over. Weeks of heat and styling need our Cold Spa Therapy to recover from, and that is a post-wedding treatment, not a pre-wedding one.

On the day

We will have agreed your start time at the trial, working backwards from when you need to be ready with a buffer, because mornings run late and we plan for that rather than hoping. The look will be the one you already signed off — no surprises on the day is the entire point of the trial.

Who is doing your makeup

Mehak trained for seven years at one of the leading salons in Vancouver before opening Nakhra Studio in Amritsar. Our artists each hold a cosmetology degree with five to seven-plus years of experience and are trained in-house by her. We use professional ranges, and every brush and tool is sterilised after every single use — which matters more on a face full of makeup than most people realise.

Frequently asked questions

How much is bridal makeup at Nakhra Studio?

Bridal and party makeup starts from ₹8,000. The final figure depends on how many functions you need us for, whether hair and draping are included, whether we travel to you, and whether family makeup is needed on the day. Message us your dates for an accurate quote.

How far in advance should I book?

As early as you possibly can. Wedding season dates in Amritsar go months ahead. Even if your outfit and jewellery are not decided, get in touch once you have a date.

Do you do a bridal trial?

Yes, and we ask you to book it after your jewellery and outfit are finalised, bringing both to the trial. A look chosen before those are decided is guesswork, because makeup has to work with your jewellery and the colour of your outfit.

Do you travel for bridal makeup?

We can, and it is one of the things that affects the quote. Tell us the venue and timing when you enquire.

What is included in a pre-bridal package?

Pre-bridal packages start from ₹18,000 and are built individually around your function dates — a planned course of skin, hair, waxing, body and nail work sequenced to land correctly before each event, plus a personalised at-home routine for your skin and hair. Nothing is off the shelf.

Should I get a hair spa before the wedding?

We recommend it afterwards. Your hair goes through weeks of heat and styling during the functions, and our Cold Spa Therapy is designed to restore it once that is over.

Do you do makeup for the bride’s family too?

Yes — party makeup also starts from ₹8,000. Tell us how many people and on which functions, and we will build it into the plan and the quote.
