    Great experience!! Would highly recommend

    I'm so happy I hired Femme Akoi for my wedding hair and makeup, the studio responded quickly to my texts and emails and everyone was very professional. Jessica was AMAZING and really understood the vibe I was going for, I didn't want traditional bridal glam and she was super receptive to my inspiration photos and I could tell I was in good hands with her. I wouldn't have changed a thing about the experience and she made me feel so beautiful on my special day.

    Best Wedding Hair & Makeup Vendor in Tampa

    My sister-in-law recommended Femme Akoi for hair and makeup, as they’d done the same for her wedding. Can confirm that while the artists and stylists were different from the ones at her wedding, the quality was still superior. They were wonderfully accommodating for members of my bridal party who love a full glam look, as well as for those who love a more minimal look. 10/10 would recommend.

    AMAZING makeup for my wedding!!

    Monica and Aliyah were phenomenal! They were extremely flexible, organized and professional. All of my bridesmaids makeup, mom’s makeup, and my makeup was perfect!!! They really listened to everyone’s preferred styles and executed them perfectly. All of our makeup was complimentary to each other, but still unique to each girl. All of our makeup held up all day and night as well. The entire process from booking the services all the way to wedding day was seamless! Highly recommend Femme Akoi 😊

    Amazing Experience

    I had the absolute pleasure of working with Monica and Jada for my wedding day hair and makeup, and I can't 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 you're looking for hair and makeup artists who are not only skilled but also wonderful to work with, I highly recommend Monica and Jada!

    Such a great experience

    Katlyn and Jamie with Femme Akoi were amazing! Myself and my four bridesmaids all had our hair and makeup done on time and everyone looked amazing! They worked together and the morning flowed seamlessly. The girls were so sweet and were able to work with all different hair/ skin types and preferences. Highly recommend!

    Incredible service

    Femme Akoi did a beautiful job for hair and make-up for my bridesmaids and me. The stylists were on time and came to my hotel room. We looked gorgeous in all the photos!

    Must book!

    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!

    LOVED my hair and make up

    I never do my make up and therefore was a little nervous about having it done for my wedding. Luci did an incredible job with both hair and make up. It was natural yet glamourous. I also really enjoyed the trial and knowing what it was going to look like prior to the wedding day.

    I truly felt like a beautiful bride

    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 couldn't stop looking at myself in the mirror, which is a lot to say considering I don't like looking at myself in the mirror. I'm a pretty short woman (4'11") and a lot of people look at me as some teenager so I didn't 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!

    Wedding 11/22/24

    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

    Cheers for Femme Akoi!

    We had an excellent experience working with Femme Akoi, especially Ayla, Andrea, and Tyler! All the ladies were so fun, professional, and kind. My bridesmaids and family members were so happy with their services! For my bridal hair/makeup Ayla did an excellent job and made my vision come to life perfectly. I would recommend her a million times over!

    Amazing service - definitely recommend!

    From the first quote through the wedding day - Femme Akoi was so easy to work with & quick to communicate. I did a bridal trail & wedding day hair & makeup for myself and my mom. Maddie nailed every request and we were so happy with the results - she also had a very calming presence that was lovely to be around on the wedding morning. I would absolutely use Femme Akoi again & recommend the company (& specifically Maddie)to anyone looking for hair & makeup services!

    Hair and Makeup that withheld the heat

    Femme Akoi was easy to communicate with leading up to our wedding. They were extremely professional and made the hair & makeup coordination easy. Then on the wedding day, the three artists (Tina, Adrianna & Janice) were unbelievable! We had 2 hours of photos outside as well as an outdoor ceremony in June 90 degree heat. At the reception we received so many compliments on how well everyone's hair & makeup held up.

    highly recommend!

    When I started the wedding planning process we were given lots of information from various venues on their "preferred vendors". Femme Akoi was on EVERY list and for good reason. When I went to book hair and makeup I knew that they would be the ones to book with. Ana was recommended to me and I am SO grateful that she was available for our wedding day! Ana & Femme Akoi worked with me in getting a trial set up that were outside her regular trial days due to my crazy work schedule. We had Ana, Grissel, Janice and Victoria as a team on the wedding day & they ALL were AMAZING. Everyone in the bridal party, including moms and grandmas were SO happy with their hair and makeup. As the bride, I felt beautiful and I couldn't have asked for anything more from this team. I would highly recommend Femme Akoi, they are professional, highly responsive and just so good at what they do.

    Super great experience with Aliyah & Hollie!!!

    I had the best experience with Aliyah and Hollie as our makeup and hair artists on my wedding day!!! They are both so friendly, and incredibly talented! Aliyah did my bridal hair and makeup, and I was SO happy with how the look turned out (I went for a more natural glam look), and all of my girls were super happy as well! I am particularly grateful for their flexibility as we were running a bit late with the wedding day timeline. Both Aliyah and Hollie were so accommodating and kind throughout the whole experience, and we will definitely be recommending them to our friends and family!

    Femme Akoi nailed our wedding looks!

    Allie was my main HMU artist. She is so kind and patient I really enjoyed chatting with her and felt so comfortable with her. I am nervous with makeup as I consider myself a natural makeup look person but she did a wonderful job and listened to me. Katlyn and Lana took care of my bridesmaids who all loved their looked. They each asked for a different hairstyle and natural makeup looks and were all obsessed with the results! This team was absolutely wonderful.

    Wedding beach

    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

    Wedding Day Hair & Makeup

    I had a great experience working with Femme Akoi. They were easy to get in touch with throughout the entire experience. My hair & makeup stylist Maddie was so sweet and did a great job on nailing what I showed her in inspo photos for my wedding day. Shout out to Cheyenne & Megan as well! Amazing stylists and people! Thank you so much!

    Wedding Hair & Makeup

    I couldn't be happier going with Femme Akoi for my wedding hair and makeup! They responded immediately after I contacted them about services, and once dates were confirmed and contracts were signed, the communication and flexibility were nothing but great. I was able to answer a questionnaire, upload inspo photos, schedule trials, etc all from the portal. I specifically requested Ana since I loved her Instagram, and Femme matched me with Cassidy based on my hair inspo photos. Between the trial and the wedding day, I could not be happier. Both Ana and Cassidy knocked it out of the park and were so great to work with. We had an early morning start time, and they even worked ahead of schedule. My hair and makeup lasted all day (even with the tears and dancing). Would highly recommend Femme and will absolutely use them again for any future hair and makeup needs!

    Incredible work and service - Thank you!!

    I highly recommend Femme Akoi for all your beauty needs-- wedding or otherwise. I hired Femme Akoi to do the hair and makeup for the woman in the bridal party for my wedding. Every single woman looked incredible and was blown away by how good they looked. Thank you, Christine, Nikita, and Sofia!

    Christine did my bridal look (hair and makeup) and I must say that I have never looked SO beautiful and radiant. Christine did an amazing job.

    Sofia did the groom's hair and he loved his look. She also lightly styled a few of the groomsmen's hair as an extra--which we really appreciated. Thank you so much, Sofia!

    Overall, Femme Akoi provided excellent service and left everyone looking amazing. I highly recommend this company for your beauty needs.

    Alex & Andrea were gems!!!

    When I booked my hair & makeup trial the same day as my engagement shoot, Alex and Andrea worked last minute to make this happen and ensured I would have them both on my big day! Both were very friendly, superstars, and gave honest feedback on our inspo! Andrea even stayed behind for makeup touch-ups for 6 bridesmaids, my mom, her best friend, and me before our reception began. My bridesmaids and I loved both our hair (bride with clip-in extensions) and makeup looks so much! I want to relive the day all over again!
