Sigi Makeup – MUA, Hair

Sigi Makeup provides professional makeup and hairstyling for a wide range of occasions, led by internationally qualified artist Sigrid Shaw. Based in Fontainebleau, Randburg in Johannesburg, the studio serves clients across Gauteng and travels throughout South Africa. The offering spans traditional and airbrush makeup, hairstyling, prosthetic makeup, body painting and special effects work, bringing both polished beauty and imaginative artistry to events and productions.

Bridal and wedding services are a core focus. Sigi Makeup creates camera-ready makeup in either traditional or airbrush application, tailored to the bride and the full bridal party. Hairstyling is available for brides, bridesmaids, mothers and flower girls, and the team can also style groomsmen. Services are offered in studio or on location at a venue or home, and looks are refined using client references to ensure cohesive styling across the party.

The team also caters to special occasion makeup for events and celebrations, along with beauty looks for photoshoots. Sigrid’s experience extends to working on set, with creative capabilities that include poolside and underwater shoot readiness and character looks such as mermaid-inspired makeup. This blend of practical set experience and refined beauty technique allows Sigi Makeup to deliver finishes that read well in person and on camera.

For clients seeking something beyond classic beauty, Sigi Makeup offers prosthetic makeup, body painting and special effects. From subtle character enhancements to bold transformation, the studio handles SFX requests and detailed body art for creative projects. This capability sits alongside beauty services, making the business a flexible choice for themed events, conceptual shoots and productions that require both elegance and imagination.

Hairstyling is offered as a dedicated service or paired with makeup. From soft ves and updos to contemporary bridal and occasion styles, the team supports groups of varying sizes. When preparing quotations, they work from reference images and pictures of the bridal party’s hair to align on direction and feasibility, which helps ensure styles complement face shapes, outfits and event settings.

Education is part of the offering as well. Sigi Makeup runs makeup workshops, sharing practical techniques and product know-how. As a MUD-qualified makeup trainer, Sigrid brings formal training credentials to these sessions, which are designed to deliver clear, professional guidance.

Sigrid’s professional grounding includes CIDESCO, ITEC, IPTI, Face to Face, Makeup Designory and BA (Hons, Wits) qualifications. She leads a team that includes artists such as Annelien, a makeup artist, hairstylist and nail technician, supported by additional makeup artists and face and body painters. This team structure enables Sigi Makeup to accommodate larger bookings and varied briefs efficiently, maintaining quality across beauty, hair and creative disciplines.

With a studio base in Randburg and the flexibility to travel, Sigi Makeup supports weddings, special occasions, photoshoots and creative projects across Gauteng and further afield in South Africa. Clients can choose in-studio services or on-site support at homes and venues, with the reassurance of a professional kit and a versatile team focused on delivering polished, long-wear results.
