My style is all about making your wedding day look both timeless and personal, with a focus on details that matter. ### What I Do Best - I specialise in the classic South Indian bridal look - think flawless, full-coverage wedding makeup that lasts, with bold eyes, deep red lips, and the bindi every Amma expects. - Hair is my jam, especially the Poola Jada hairstyle for brides. I use fresh jasmine, proper temple jewelry, the works. - Saree draping isn’t a side gig for me. I’ll make sure your Kanjeevaram stays crisp and perfect, no matter how many aunties hug you! ### More Than Just Muhurtham - For reception and sangeet, we can switch to glamorous sangeet makeup look or modern hairstyles. Voluminous braids, textured buns, whatever suits your vibe. - Lehengas, half sarees, or a full-on party look - I’ve got you. ### Start to Finish, I’m There - You don’t need to call three different people. I handle it all - makeup, hair, and saree draping. It all comes together, one style, one vision. ### Why I Do This - Honestly, I get attached to my brides. I call them ‘magane’ (my child) without thinking! That connection is what keeps me going. I’m based in Bangalore and travel across Karnataka. If you want a look that’s both classic and real, that’s what I’m here for. ## Highlights Browse through Shobha Shetty's best work. ### [Featured](https://mytribe.in/shobha.636/bridal-makeup-styling/featured) - ![A close-up of my classic South Indian bridal makeup.
