Muneeiah ‘Moon’ Punjani, a Hoover resident, has built a thriving beauty business with her spa chain, Moon’s Day Spa. The chain, which specializes in eyebrow threading, lash extensions, and facial services, has grown to nine locations across Alabama.

From Childhood Hustle to Successful Business

Punjani’s journey into the industry began at a young age. Growing up in India, she started doing facials for her neighbors at just 11 years old. By her late teens, she attended beauty school, earned her license, and began training others in traditional bridal henna.

After moving to the United States in 2008, Punjani launched her business with a small cart at Eastdale Mall in Montgomery, offering threading and lash services. The business expanded to multiple locations across Alabama and beyond, with Punjani now owning nine locations.

Punjani credits her success to a focus on facial services and building strong relationships with her clients. ‘When you do the face, it needs to look right,’ she said. ‘When your face is good, you are good.’ Many clients return every two to three weeks for maintenance and often follow her from location to location.

Punjani hopes to continue growing her business at a steady pace while encouraging others to support local businesses. ‘When you are new, you need support from the community,’ she said. ‘Once they come, they will love it and keep coming back.’
