Too many jump into courses just because the fees look tempting (*summane fees kami ide anta*) and end up with patchy base or confused about products. What’s missing? *Proper knowledge illa antha* (no proper knowledge). My goal is to give you real, in-depth understanding so you can actually build a career, not just learn to copy a look. ### What I Actually Teach You’ll learn everything, *prathiyondannu in-depth aagi helikodtini* (I teach every single thing in-depth): - Skin theory - you’ll think like a dermatologist, knowing skin types, undertones, and how to handle any client - Product chemistry - I’ll show you how to read labels because your client’s health is serious business (*dayavittu artha madkolli* - please understand) - Colour theory for creative looks that stand out ### Makeup and Hair Techniques - Flawless, sweat-proof base - HD and airbrush makeup training, plus Brazilian and high-gloss trends - Eye makeup: smokey, halo, cut crease, Arabic styles - Over 25 hairstyles, including modern South Indian bridal hairstyles and advanced extensions ### Course Options - Diploma courses: 15, 21, or 45 days from basics to pro level - International advanced masterclass: focus on trends and portfolio looks ### More Than Just Makeup I cover saree draping, client handling, professional makeup portfolio building, and even social media for makeup artists. All classes are hands-on, with live supervision, a final exam to boost your confidence, and lifetime support from me. *Barditkolli* (write it down) - real learning needs practice, not just videos. ## Highlights Browse through Keerthiraj Shetty's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/kpm___events/professional-makeup-hairstyle-artistry-courses/featured) - [Video: Watch the transformation from start to finish.
