Absolutely amazing!

I couldn’t recommend Fi and Daisy more highly! From the very beginning, Fi was excellent at communicating and made the whole process feel completely stress-free.

On the day itself, Daisy was fantastic. She created the perfect natural look and I couldn’t have been happier with the final result. Her professionalism, talent, and calm, relaxed presence helped make the morning so enjoyable and put everyone at ease.

I’m so grateful for everything they did and would absolutely recommend them to any bride to be!

Beautiful, but not quite as advertised

The hair and makeup on the day was lovely, and I was really happy with how everything turned out. However, the overall experience didn’t quite meet expectations, particularly given the price. Communication beforehand could have been much better, as responses weren’t very prompt and I had to chase on occasion. The ‘Complimentary Luxe Bridal Beauty Bag’ also felt a little exaggerated to what was received. Whilst the overall process didn’t quite reflect the premium experience that was advertised, I was pleased with the final result and Abbie was great!

Absolutely the bestest ❣️🎉😘

Fi brought all the relaxed, fun and also pro (considering how Mauritians are really not good with sticking to timings 🤣😂) vibes to the bridal dressing room while doing mine and my mum's hair and make-up.

My bridal party absolutely loved Fi she brought all the best and the good vibes. Singing along, dancing and getting to know everyone.

I could not have picked a better makeup artist and hair stylist. Fi really got me and got us all, in all of our chaos and my non stop moving 😂

Thank you Fi for all your hard work and thank you for making it all so easy, so stress free and fun for me and my mum. Absolutely the bestest ❣️🎉😘

A true fairy god mother!

Where do I start?! Fi made me feel and look like a princess. My makeup lasted all day and night, through the laughter and the tears. Not only did she do that but she also helped me get into my dress, helped with all the little things and calmed me down right before walking down the aisle. She truly was my fairy god mother and I couldn’t recommend her enough. I will always be so thankful to have her on my wedding morning

Amazing experience

A massive thank you to Fi and Daisy for doing both mine and my three bridesmaids hair & makeup. Wow! They looked after us all so well and kept us relaxed the entire time, we all had such a laugh and Fi was brilliant at overcoming some on the day challenges with ease! What a pro! I honestly can't praise them enough, the makeup was stunning and felt so light and the hair was so beautiful. Thank you both so much for making us all feel so special and like princesses!

What a Gorgeous Team!

Fi is just incredible! Nothing was too much trouble, we had 9 to have hair and make up all by at 1:30pm ceremony time, and Fi, Maisy and Daisy nailed it no problem atall (even with me spilling water all on my make up just after it being finished!)
Very Accommodating, and took the time with me on my trial to ensure i was happy!

Couldn’t recommend more highly!

Having Fi to do my hair and make up was an absolute dream! From our initial phone call where she listened carefully to the look I envisioned, to reassuring me about the ingredients of her products in light of my nut allergy, to easily arranging a date for my trial. From the moment I met Fi she was easy to talk to and I felt that I was in a safe pair of hands. She created an amazing look for me at my trial and then perfectly recreated it on the wedding day. She arrived early at the venue, was calm and reassuring throughout the morning and had a great time with the bridesmaids and was happy to work with the photographer. If I were to have my hair and make up done again I wouldn’t hesitate to book Fi again - my husband was also blown away by the look!!

Loved working with Fi!

Fi’s make up catered to the different tastes and preferences of myself and my bridesmaids perfectly. On top of that, Fi is truly a delight to be around and made us feel like it was a girl’s night out the day of our wedding. Thanks so much Fi - we loved having you!!

Amazing make up and hair

I would really recommend Fi for anyone's wedding hair and makeup. Fi understood the vision at the trial and I had complete trust in her on the day. For the bridesmaid and flower girl, she looked at one picture on the day and nailed it! Fi was great company in the morning of the wedding and a real calming energy to have around - her "wedding" experience also helped with some last minute problem solving!

Absolutely brilliant

Our experience with Fi was absolutely incredible from start to finish. From the very first trial, she immediately put me at ease -she even rearranged her schedule on a Saturday to fit me in, knowing I couldn’t make it during the week because of work commitments.

The makeup itself was flawless. Fi really listened to what I wanted, keeping the coverage light so my freckles still showed, and she was so patient when I couldn’t decide on a lip colour - changing it several times without hesitation.

Beyond her talent, Fi brought such a calm, reassuring presence on the morning of the wedding. She helped keep everyone’s nerves in check, and she gave me one of the best pieces of advice: while I was having my final touches and photos taken, she encouraged me to pause for a moment and soak it all in - knowing it would probably be the only time I had to myself that day.

I can’t recommend her highly enough - she’s truly 10/10 (or more!) and any bride would be lucky to have her.

Regretfully I do not and never would recommend..

I thought long and hard about writing this review, but when I saw my wedding photo’s this week, the stress shown on the faces of me and my bridesmaid made the decision for me.
You sent me an agenda a week before the wedding and asked me to review it. The start time was set for 8 AM. However, by the time you arrived at the venue on the day, it was 9:20 AM. I had to chase you down to find out where you were, and at no point in our WhatsApp messages did you indicate that you would be late. Yet you tell us that you weren’t aware you were late!

You put me in an impossible position. My future mother-in-law paid for your services and was beginning to doubt whether you would even show up—so was I, to be honest, especially given that you had already been paid in full. When you arrived your arrogant, unapologetic attitude did not land well with me or my family, yet we tried to make the best of a stressful situation.
I was still in the apartment at 1 PM when I should have been at the venue at 12.40, I was waiting for the maid of honour's makeup to be completed. My hairpins were falling out, and I had no time to adjust anything! This was not the start I wanted; I arrived at the venue at 1:20 PM instead of the planned 12:40 PM. The wedding ceremony didn’t start until 1:30 PM because I had to speak to the registrar as planned. My biggest issue is that you seem to have zero accountability for your actions and have offer no genuine apology.
What I struggle with most is that your lateness impacted not only the venue and the registrar but also the kitchen, the photographer, the caterers, the band—the list goes on.
I spent the day apologising for the late running of the day to everyone including my guests and husband – all of which starts with you!

Absolutely wonderful!

I cannot thank Fi enough for making me and my bridesmaids all feel beautiful! I booked Fi for my hair and makeup, along with hair styling for my mum and 4 bridesmaids. From the very start, Fi has been incredibly helpful and put me at ease - she seemed to know exactly what I wanted. Communication has been easy throughout, including my trial, which was so much fun!

Aside from the hair and makeup being perfect (and staying all night), Fi also made me feel very relaxed and talked me through the wedding morning with such kindness. It really helped a nervous bride like me!! Would highly recommend Fi to anyone, very talented and a lovely person too!

100% recommend Fi

Fi was an absolute godsend on our wedding morning, she kept me calm, was reassuring and most of all made me look and feel amazing. We had a great time all getting ready and my bridesmaids told me how happy they were with their hair and makeup. Thanks so much Fi!!!

I would choose Fi again, again and again!

From the moment I messaged Fi, until the wedding day, Fi was spectacular. She gave us exactly what we asked for, and nothing was too much for her. She really creates such a calming atmosphere, and she really felt like she was part of the family! She made me feel a million dollars, and I honestly couldn't be any happier 🤍

A dream to work with!

An absolute must for me is cruelty-free makeup, and it felt near impossible to find someone for our wedding who shared those values and had a relaxed, down-to-earth approach – until I found Fi!

From the first chat, Fi just got it. Super responsive, listened to want I wanted (natural make up with a bolder eyeliner), and understood completely I wanted something that still looked like me and nailed it at the trial. I don’t wear much makeup usually and Fi got that balance of effortless and light yet great for photos.

She and Daisy were total stars doing makeup for me, 4 bridesmaids, 1 groomsmaid and 2 mothers too. Everyone looked amazing and got the makeup style they were looking for and with time to spare for touchups. Fi brought such a calm, positive energy to the morning that kept everyone else calm and the experience enjoyable.

Ethical, professional and genuinely lovely. Couldn’t have asked for more.
