Absolutely loved working with Femme Akoi for my wedding day! Monica is a true magician -- I looked amazing! The entire team came prepared, on time and made all of my bridesmaids and mom look stunning! Make Up, Lashes and Hair lasted on all of us for over 12 hours! I didnt have to touch up once.Highly highly recommend for any occasion.

Monica, Jada, and Vanessa from Femme Akoi recently did me and my bridesmaids wedding makeup and hair and let me tell you, EVERYONE was so happy with their look! Booking was easy, their communications team is so quick and friendly. The artists are truly so kind, talented, professional, efficient. I would recommend Femme Akoi to anyone, truly the best in the business!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Monica and Jada for my wedding day hair and makeup, and I cant recommend them enough!First, I had a bridal trial with Monica, which was such a breeze to book. She made the entire experience easy and stress-free, and I was blown away by how amazing my hair and makeup looked! I felt like a true bride, and that gave me so much confidence heading into the big day.On the wedding day, Monica and Jada worked their magic on myself (the bride), my two bridesmaids, my mom, my mother-in-law, and even my 3-year-old niece. They were both so kind, professional, and incredibly talented. My niece was a little excited to join in on the fun, and Monica and Jada were so sweet with her, dabbing blush on her cheeks when she wanted to be part of the action—it was such a cute touch!Everyone looked absolutely beautiful, and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help make me and my loved ones feel our best. If youre looking for hair and makeup artists who are not only skilled but also wonderful to work with, I highly recommend Monica and Jada!

I cant thank Monica enough for making me feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day. From our first trial to the final touch-ups, she truly listened to what I wanted and executed it perfectly. Not only was the makeup flawless, but it also lasted all day and night without a single worry. If youre looking for someone who can bring your vision to life, I highly recommend Femme Akoi.

I could not recommend Femme Akoi enough. They were extremely communicative throughout the whole process. My bridal party was assigned Ana and Allie with 12 total services between hair and makeup. They were on time and made sure to listen to everyone’s preferences. Ana did my hair and makeup trial and listened to every little detail I wanted to change come wedding day. She made me feel beautiful and reassured me that my hair would not be crazy on a super windy rooftop wedding or my makeup would not be ruined through happy tears. I totally recommend going through Femme Akoi for your bridal needs

I cannot recommend Femme Akoi enough! Monica, Allie and Lana were phenomenal! We had 8 bridesmaids, 2 moms and myself. They were on time and completed everyone’s hair and make up very quickly! They were personable and extremely talented! They were extremely easy to communicate with and they set up the entire hair and make up schedule for the day of the wedding.Monica did my hair and make up for my wedding and rehersal dinner. I showed her Inspo pictures and she nailed them. My hair and make up stayed all night and I got so many compliments!

I was so thrilled with how my bridal hair and make-up turned out in both real life and in pictures. Monica embraced my natural, long curls and made them look defined and frizz-free. For make-up, she nailed the soft glam look I wanted and was very willing to work with me on different lip color options. Plus, this Femme Akoi staff was great and made scheduling a breeze. I absolutely recommend them for anyone who wants to embrace their natural curls for a special occasion.

Ana did mine & my bridal party’s make up for my wedding this past weekend. She is so sweet & professional & gave everyone their desired make up look. I had the most beautiful bridal party ever 🥹 She also did Hollywood glam waves on my hair. My hair has never looked so beautiful & it held up all night!

Monica did an AMAZING job with my hair and make-up. My favorite thing was my hair. I have pretty thin hair, but she made it look so full and voluptuous. I know what I look like with make-up as I do my own, but with the hair and make-up on, it just felt so different. I was in AWE with how I looked. I felt like a completely different person & I knew my husband was going to love it. I really couldnt stop looking at myself in the mirror, which is a lot to say considering I dont like looking at myself in the mirror. Im a pretty short woman (411) and a lot of people look at me as some teenager so I didnt think I would look like a bride. Needless to say, I definitely felt like a bride. All of my bridesmaids and my mother looked so gorgeous as well! On the day of the wedding we startes at 11 and ended before the end time predicted. They were both so fast and efficient. 100% recommend them!

I’ll be recommending Femme Akoi to everyone I know! Scheduling was a breeze and their communication was great! Lana did beautiful work on my hair and makeup for my wedding day! Thank you all so much 🫶🏼

My team was Andrea, Marci, Crystal and Elisha. I had 12 people getting hair and makeup done. Femme Akoi was extraordinary from the beginning. When I first contacted them, they were booked for my wedding day. They told me I could reach out again to see if there were any cancellations and, lucky me, almost a month later they had an opening! All communication takes place via their online portal which then gets forwarded to your email. They were on top of all of the details and very organized. We were even able to add an artist so that our start time wasn’t so early in the morning. My schedule didn’t allow for me to get a hair trial with Marci but I put my faith in her and she delivered! Andrea did my makeup and we clicked from the day we met, at the makeup trial. Everything fell into place. On the day of the wedding, the girls were phenomenal. We were even ahead of schedule at times, waiting for the next bridesmaid to come in for her slot. The whole experience felt very easy. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs hair and makeup for their wedding, or any other event. My girls, Marci and Andrea, you were absolutely amazing and I can’t thank you enough for bringing my vision to life.

I cannot recommend Ana for makeup and Maddie for hair highly enough! From the get-go, they were incredibly flexible, listening attentively to the preferences of not just me, but also my bridesmaids, mom, and even the flower girls.Ana and Maddie didnt just execute our desired looks flawlessly; they went above and beyond by providing valuable recommendations and suggestions that truly elevated our styles. Throughout the day, they were on hand for touch-ups and tweaks, ensuring that we looked our best from start to finish.We had wind, sun, and sweat throughout the festivities, and our makeup remained impeccable and our hair stayed perfectly in place. Its a testament to their skill and expertise that even after hours of celebration, we still looked as in tact as we did from the beginning.If youre looking for makeup and hair artists who will make you feel beautiful and confident on your special day, book with Femme Akoi. They are simply the best!

Cassidy and Aliyah were my hair and makeup artist for my wedding and they are amazing!!! My makeup did not crease and stayed put during our vows (we cried!) and we got so much volume in my hair, it was unreal!!! Both Cassidy and Aliyah are so talented and so nice! It was a joy to have them be part of my day!!! I looked like a beauty queen!!! Thank you, thank you!

What an amazing experience using Femme Akoi for my hair and makeup services on my wedding day! We had 13 people (bridesmaids, moms and me as the bride) and they did an amazing and quick job. They all arrived early, were professional, did each persons HMU to their inspo photos, and everyone was so happy with the result. With the humidity in FL we also had someone come to the venue for touch ups which was so worth it! Thank you so much for making me feel so good on my wedding day! Would recommend their services to anyone!!

My wedding at the beach was amazing!!! The makeup was perfect for me and my bridesmaids love their makeup and hair. Although it was kind of challenging with my artist sometimes because at the beginning she didn’t understand well what I want for my mom and myself, but she made it and we looked great. The only thing that I’m disappointed is I didn’t have any from the staff on my day to do videos or before and after like they post on their social media. Overall good service and highly recommend it

Ana did my make up for my wedding. She nailed it! I would absolutely recommend her!The one thing I will mention about Femme Akoi however is they have a portal which makes communication with Femme Akoi seamless. However, it seemed that a lot of information like my inspiration photos or wedding day notes did not make it to the actual artist.It was not the biggest dealbreaker since I had my phone and showed Ana my inspiration photos when I sat in the chair to trial. However, I mentioned several times via the portal that I would have extensions that I did not trial with Ana. On my wedding day, Ana said that the hairstyle I wanted with extensions would not hold. I had to either lose the extensions or pick a different hairstyle. I am a pretty flexible person so it was not the biggest deal personally but I know for some people that would have been detrimental.

This team of beauty gurus is truly the best! I had myself along with 5 others that needed hair and makeup. Monica and Ana were our artists, and I cannot imagine having a better team. Not only did everyone get exactly what they asked for and look beautiful, but they also were so sweet, funny, and warm. It felt like just having two extra friends in the room! Everything was on time (if not a little ahead of time!), and they rolled with the day as there were a couple last minute changes to the order of events. I cannot recommend this team enough! I am now just looking for another excuse to use them for a future event! If you are looking for a talented, kind team for your hair and makeup, Femme Akoi is 100% who to turn to!

Working with Femme Akoi was beyond my expectations. My professional’s were Luci and Allie. My hair and makeup stuck throughout my entire (extremely warm) wedding and I felt like a princess all day and evening. I have some hyperpigmentation on my cheeks and forehead and they were able to cover it all up while still giving me the Natural Glam look I wanted. I am beyond grateful for their patience, professionalism, flexibility and talent with both me and my bridesmaids. Obviously I highly recommend them and you’ll be so happy you chose them too!

Review 19 (2023-09-07 - Rating: 5)
I truly cannot recommend Femme Akoi enough! I was a bridesmaid in a friend’s wedding, and she also used Femme Akoi. They did such an amazing job that day, that when my wedding came up, I didn’t even look around for another hair and makeup team. They are professional, on time, and so so talented! They truly listen to what you’d like and they execute it perfectly. They are amazing!!

Review 20 (2023-02-17 - Rating: 5)
I can’t rave enough about how amazing Femme Akoi is! I had a lot of different questions and they were very patient in explaining how their process worked. I chose Femme Akoi because they did my hair and make up for my best friends wedding when I was a bridesmaid; they made me feel beautiful. And I felt just the same on my wedding day. They were on time, actually a little early even, and got right to work on making us beautified. They made me look exactly how I pictured and I couldn’t have been happier. I even recommended them to my aunt who is getting married and she will be using them next month! I highly recommend.

Femme and Monica did a wonderful job, I had a bad experience with another hair/makeup company at first trial and decided to try Femme after a friend suggested. Monica listened closely and gave me what I wanted, a natural glam look. My bridesmaids loved their hair and makeup and truly looked stunning on my wedding day. It is a bit pricey but well worth feeling your very best. The Mom’s loved it as well.

Femme Akoi provided a makeup artist for my recent wedding and I couldnt be happier with the quality of service provided. Huge shoutout to Aliyah who was friendly, professional, and a wonderful addition to our getting-ready experience. :)

Femme Akoi did an AMAZING job on my wedding hair and makeup as well as my bridesmaids hair and makeup! Everyone looked flawless. They helped my wedding dreams come true.

Review 24 (2024-02-05 - Rating: 5)
I cannot even rave enough about Christine. I booked her for my wedding hair and she absolutely killed it and did a phenomenal job. She did Hollywood waves for me and my hair typically does not hold a curl. It held all day and all night, and I have never felt more beautiful, she made my hair look so stunning.

Review 25 (2024-03-21 - Rating: 5)
I was with Maddie for my wedding day and she absolutely killed it! I had a few small changes from my test session and she took them all to make my look absolutely perfect - I got so many complements all day at how good the makeup was, and it lasted all night with no issues.

Review 26 (2023-03-16 - Rating: 5)
I cannot thank Monica & Jada enough for making myself, my bridesmaids, and my family members feel like their most beautiful selves! I have personally never felt so stunning and it allowed all my inner confidence to shine! I recommend you all to everyone I know from weddings to any glam moment :) Thank you again!!

Review 27 (2022-03-13 - Rating: 4)
Their services came highly recommended, so I booked a full makeup and hair session at their Tampa location. Based on price and reputation, I expected something more of a wow factor. The young lady who did my makeup did a nice job, but it wasnt something I couldnt have done myself. I explained to her that I wanted something natural, but also fun and noticeably different than my everyday look. I asked her to brighten up my eyes a little more, but she wasn’t quite understanding it. I was in such a time crunch that I didn’t get the look I wanted. My hair was okay, but nothing like the hairstyles I saw on Femme Akois IG Page. Overall, okay service and experience, but its apparent there are different skill levels on the team. It would be nice to know beforehand so you can choose and pay based on the individuals skill level.
