Pixie did my makeup and hair for me when I attended my best friend's wedding. I received lots of compliments on how fresh and pretty I look. Most of all, she is very friendly and helpful.

What a great experience from the first random phone call to meeting and having Pixie do her magic on my hair. I was attending Coogee for a special night and nothing was a problem. I would highly reccommend her to anyone who wants a simple but amazing experience. Thanks again.

When I lived in Sydney, Pixie did my hair for over 6 years! I miss her and her help so much now that I'm in Melbourne these days! I wish Melbourne was closer to Sydney. She listens and know's hair and picks up on your style. Great clean funky salon. Always makes you feel at ease and going there is something I always looked forward to! Go nowhere else!!

I highly recommend Pixie and her team. As well as doing an excellent, professional cut and colour every time, it is so relaxing to spend a few hours in the salon. Pixie and Amy go out of their way to make their clients feel at home. I keep telling you Pixie that you don't charge enough!

I love going to Pixie Hair and Makeup. The salon has a hip vibe where you can go to chat and relax plus come out looking amazing. #winwin
Pixies years of experience is evident in all service offered but I travel across Sydney from the Northern Beaches for her colour. #secondtonone
