For me, makeup and hairstyling isn’t about changing how you look, it’s about bringing out what’s already there. I get that every occasion is different, and so is every person who sits in my chair. ### Hair That Speaks For You If you’re after a poola jada hairstyle with fresh flowers and temple jewelry, I’ve got you. I also love creating messy buns and woven braids with pearls or colored extensions for those who want something modern. Sometimes, a simple half-updo or glamorous curls for sangeet is all you need to stand out. I’m big on finishing touches - malli poo, roses, crystals, pearls, you name it. ### Makeup That Fits The Moment I do everything from full glam for parties to classic traditional looks for big family events. If you want natural party makeup or something subtle for work events, I keep it real and make sure you still look like you. ### Saree Draping Included I also drape sarees, so your whole look comes together. I believe a well-draped saree and styled hair can make you feel unstoppable. ### Occasions I Cover Receptions, sangeet, Deepavali, corporate functions, photoshoots, or any day you want to feel a little extra. I’m here for all of it. ## Highlights Browse through Anitha Manu's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/adamyamakeover/special-occasion-makeup-and-hairstyling/featured) - ![This is the quintessential South Indian bridal look I love to create.
