Work from home, go to them, or both

Pick one way of working, or both, when you set up your profile. Your hours, your travel distance and your fee are yours to set.

  • From your home studio

    Customers come to you. Set the hours you take bookings on each day and the services you offer at home.

  • Home visits

    You go to the customer, for a bride getting ready at home or a family function. Choose how far you travel and whether to add a travel fee.

A profile that shows your work, and one place for your bookings

Questions artists ask us

Can't find yours? Write to the partner team.

I don't have a shop. Can I join?

Yes. Salonava is open to independent artists who work from a studio at home, travel to their customers, or both. You list your services, prices and hours the same way a salon does, and our team verifies your profile before it goes live.

Do I need GST registration?

No. What we need is one business or work proof. That can be a Udyam registration, a GST certificate, a trade licence, or a certificate from a professional course such as a makeup, mehendi or nail course.

How do home visits work?

When you set up where you work, you choose how far you are willing to travel and, if you like, a travel fee. Customers within that distance can then book you to come to them. You can offer home visits on their own or alongside your home studio.

What photos should I upload?

At least three clear photos of your own work: finished mehendi designs, nail sets, makeup looks or hairstyles. Daylight and a plain background work best. Please don't use photos downloaded from the internet; our team checks them during verification.

Can I offer both a home studio and home visits?

Yes. Choose both in the step about where you work. Customers can then book you at your studio or ask you to come to them.

How do I get paid?

Online payments from customers are settled to the bank account you add during sign-up. Account numbers are encrypted when stored, and only the last four digits are shown back to you.
