This means I personally handle the secure fixing of your temple jewelry and matha patti, alongside professional saree pleating. This ensures that whether you are performing rituals or dancing at the reception, your heavy jewelry stays in place and your saree drape remains crisp without needing constant adjustments. ### My Approach to Your Traditional Look South Indian bridal makeup is not just about the face. It is about how the makeup, jewelry, and outfit come together to create a cohesive traditional look. My process starts with skin preparation that ensures your makeup lasts through long ceremonies, whether it is a morning muhurtham or an evening reception. **Makeup & Skin Prep** I use high-quality products like MAC and Kryolan to provide a base that is comfortable yet long-wearing. I balance traditional elements—like sharp eyeliner and bold lips—with a skin finish that looks natural under both indoor stage lighting and bright morning sun. **Hairstyling & The Classic Jada** Hair is a major part of the South Indian aesthetic. I specialize in traditional braids decorated with fresh flowers, known as Poola Jada, as well as complex updos that can support heavy headpieces like the baashinga. I use high-quality padding and extensions where needed to ensure the volume stays consistent throughout your event. **Travel & Convenience** I am based in Bangalore, but I travel across Karnataka. My goal is to make the process stress-free for you. I come to your home or venue, which means you can get ready in a comfortable space without the hassle of traveling on your wedding day. ### What to Expect * **Customization:** We will discuss your outfit colors and jewelry ahead of time so I can match the eye makeup palette and hair style perfectly. * **Saree Draping:** I handle everything from Kanjeevaram silk drapes to modern half-saree styling, ensuring the pleats are sharp and comfortable. * **Professional Kit:** I bring my own professional kit, including pins, setting sprays, and all necessary tools for a finished look. ## About Shobha Shetty Hi, I am Shobha.
