Make-up Artist Educator
Neha Milind Gujar
Neha still takes bridal bookings right through the season. That is not a side note — it is the reason the teaching is worth paying for. Everything taught in the studio was used on a real client, under a real deadline, that same month.
She trained at Amruta Makeup Expert Studio & Academy, took the Advance Makeup Diploma at Sam & Jas, and came runner-up in Amruta’s makeup competition. All four certificates are on this page, because an academy that will not show you its own qualifications is asking for a lot of trust.
Qualifications
Named bodies, photographed certificates.
It is common in this market to advertise a course as “government certified” or “internationally accredited” without ever naming the body. If you are comparing academies, ask each one who awards the certificate and what its registration number is.

To be exact: these certify Neha’s own training. The certificate a student receives at the end of a course here is issued by this academy. We would rather state that plainly than let it be inferred.
Who teaches
Two people, both named.
Neha Milind Gujar
Founder and lead educator
Neha teaches the way she works: on a real face, against a real deadline. She still takes bridal bookings through the season, which is the point — everything taught in the studio was used on a client that month, not learned from a manual.
Bhakti Kadam
Hairstylist
Hair and setting for bridal work, and the hairstyling side of the diploma.
Still in the chair, most weeks of the season.
Bridal bookings across Mumbai, and travelling where the wedding is. The functions, the 5am starts, the fourteen-hour days and the humidity are not theory here — they are this month’s diary, and they are why the course covers what it covers.
