1. Booking & 50% Advance Payment Policy

Why is a 50% advance payment required for booking confirmation?

A 50% advance payment is strictly mandatory to reserve and lock in your appointment date and time slot exclusively for you. Because lead artist Zoya receives multiple inquiries for dates—especially during peak wedding and festival seasons—paying the 50% advance guarantees that your slot will not be offered to anyone else.

What payment methods are accepted for paying the 50% booking advance?

We offer seamless payment options! You can pay your 50% advance via Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm, UPI ID transfer, direct IMPS/NEFT bank account transfer, or in person via Cash or Debit/Credit card at our Dharwad studio.

When should the remaining 50% balance payment be cleared?

The remaining 50% balance must be settled on or before the day of your event service—either upon arrival at our Dharwad studio or prior to commencing makeup and hair styling for outstation venue bookings.

Is the 50% advance payment refundable if I cancel my booking?

The 50% advance payment is non-refundable as the time slot and resources are reserved exclusively for you, preventing other clients from booking that slot. However, if you need to reschedule due to an emergency, your advance can be adjusted to a new date provided notice is given at least 14 days prior to your event.

How will I receive booking confirmation after paying the 50% advance?

As soon as your 50% advance payment is verified, our team will generate an official digital booking confirmation voucher and invoice containing all date, time, artist, and package details, sent directly to your WhatsApp and Email.
