About Bridal Makeup & Hair Styling
Who I Am
Nanna hesaru Monisha (My name is Monisha) and I’m here to make sure you look and feel like yourself, just a little more glam, on your wedding day. I don’t believe in hiding your features or making you look like someone else. My thing is connection - if you’re comfortable and happy, that’s what really matters. The way we treat each other, adu nanna mansalli uliyutthe (it stays with me).
My Makeup Style
I’m all about that 'Minimal Glam' vibe. Minimal glam bridal makeup means your skin still looks like skin, just smoother and glowing. If you want something bold or traditional, like classic South Indian bridal hair accessories or a full-on reception glam look, I can do that too. Your Pinterest boards, your aunt’s advice, your ideas - I’ll listen.
What I Cover
For every wedding event, I’ve got you:
- Engagement: Soft, sparkly, nothing too much.
- Haldi: Dewy haldi makeup look with floral jewellery, simple and fresh.
- Sangeeth: Shimmer, radiant skin, and hair that stays put while you dance.
- Muhurtham: Kanjivaram sarees, traditional hair, flawless base.
- Reception: Smokey eyes or shimmer, whatever suits your outfit.
I also handle saree draping - custom saree draping, so you don’t have to worry about pleats or pins.
Extras
If jewelry is stressing you out, I run a rental service. I’ll help you match the right pieces for every function.
What Matters Most
Best part for me? When you and your family say, 'Thumbane ista aytu' (They really loved it). It’s not just makeup - it’s memories we create together.

My Story
Hi, namaskara! I’m Monisha from Chitradurga, but honestly, I’ll pack my kit and come wherever you need me. My work isn’t just about makeup, it’s about stories. Like Neha’s wedding – her dad called and said, ‘Makeup artist agi Neha book madkondirbodu, but nanu Neha thandeyagi nimmana maduvege invite madtha idini’ (She booked you as makeup artist, but as her dad, I’m inviting you to the wedding). That’s what I treasure – the respect, the love, thumbane kushi aytu (felt so happy). Being part of these moments is something else.
My Work
Makeup & Hair for Every Occasion - Bridal, reception, engagement, muhurtham, seemantham, naming ceremony, even groom makeovers. I do it all.
Minimal Glam to Goddess Looks - I love minimal glam bridal makeup, but if you want bold goddess look or Bollywood style, I’m up for it.
Your Reference, My Touch - Show me any look, I’ll match it. Proper brown eyes, special hairdos, skin prep always comes first.
Ready to Travel - Chitradurga is home, but I travel anywhere – Bangalore, Goa, Chennai, you name it.
