Very friendly very kind very compassionate and very patient

I had the pleasure of working with Zaniffa and her hair stylist Livia a couple weekends ago for hair and makeup for a wedding I was attending in Canada. Both exceeded mine and my groups expectations. I’ve never really been able to color match foundation and have felt other artists have done it either too dark or too light but Zaniffa nailed it perfectly. Zaniffa is incredibly easy to talk to and made everything easy. Our makeup and hair were flawless and we received compliments all night! Both Zaniffa and Livia were able to come up with looks that complimented our outfits. I can’t recommend their services enough, Zaniffa will definitely be my first call the next time I have an event in Canada. More...

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Zaniffa! From the start, she was professional and took her time to consult with me and my bridesmaids. She asked thoughtful questions, listened to the looks we wanted, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and confident with their choices. I felt so reassured knowing she understood my vision for a natural and beautiful bridal look.

On the wedding day, Zaniffa was a dream to work with—kind, patient, and calm, which made such a difference. She worked carefully but efficiently, enhancing everyone’s features beautifully. The end result was exactly what I had hoped for: my makeup looked natural and flawless, lasted all day and night, and stayed perfect through the ceremony, photos, and hours of dancing. I received so many compliments, and it was all thanks to her skill.

I truly can’t thank her enough for making me feel so confident on one of the most important days of my life. If you’re looking for a makeup artist who is talented, caring, and professional, I wholeheartedly recommend Zaniffa. More...

Aww! Thank you so much Mitchell. 💕 It truly meant the world to me to be part of your special day. Seeing you and your wedding party glowing with happiness was the highlight of my work. I’m so grateful you trusted me and so glad everything held up beautifully, even on the hottest day of the year! Wishing you a lifetime of love and joy in this new chapter. ✨💍 Zaniffa

Z is a lovely person who genuinely cares for her clients. I was looking for someone with experience who could execute a classic and natural look. I don't wear a lot of makeup and she created the perfect look for me without going over the top. We got married in +30 degrees and I still looked amazing. My make up was flawless, without shine or sweat on my face for pictures and my makeup was still great at the end of the night. I would recommend Zaniffa for your wedding day, you won't regret it. A true professional who listens to her clients and knows her product inside and out. 10/10 for professionalism, time management and execution. More...

Zaniffa was wonderful! She was so friendly, responsive and helpful in planning. She offered a lot of tips to prepare for hair and makeup for my wedding day and was crystal clear on each step along the way. Though she didn't do my hair and makeup herself (her super talented colleague Jas did who has a very similar style to Zaniffa), Zaniffa guided me through everything else. Her advice and guidance really showed her level of expertise in the field. I highly recommend her - you won't regret it!

Thank you for everything Zaniffa! :) More...

Oh my goodness, Tania — thank you so much for this beautiful review! 💕 Reading your kind words truly made my day. I may not have done your hair and makeup personally, but it meant the world to me to support you through the planning and prep, and to ensure you felt confident every step of the way. I’m so glad Jas was able to deliver the look you envisioned — she’s incredibly talented, and it was important to me that you were in great hands. Thank you again for trusting me for your special day. It’s reviews like this that remind me why I love what I do. Wishing you all the happiness in this new chapter! 💍✨ Zaniffa

Olivia is amazing! She nailed the look I wanted and made me feel so confident. My hair and makeup lasted all day, Highly recommend!

I had the pleasure of working with Zaniffa for my wedding makeup, and she was absolutely wonderful. She was so attentive and really took the time to listen to what I wanted. I appreciated how open she was to making adjustments and making sure I was 100% happy with the final look. Not only is she talented, but she’s also such a lovely, easy person to talk to — she helped keep the morning calm and enjoyable. Livy, my hair stylist, was equally fantastic. She brought my vision to life beautifully and made sure every detail was perfect. My hair held up all day and night, and I received so many compliments. Together, they made me feel like the best version of myself on such a special day. I can’t recommend them enough! More...

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Zaniffa for my wedding, and she was nothing short of amazing. She did my makeup, as well as my sister’s and niece’s—and we all felt so beautiful and confident the entire day.

She has such a calming, professional presence, which made the whole getting-ready experience stress-free and actually enjoyable (which, as a bride, I appreciated so much!). She really listened to what we each wanted and brought it to life perfectly. My makeup lasted all night, my hair held through hugs, happy tears, and a photoshoot in the cold!, and I still looked like myself—just the most radiant version.

Thank you for being such an important part of our day. 5/5 without hesitation—I’d recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat! More...

Oh Wafa, your message truly touched my heart. Thank you so much for your beautiful words—they honestly brought tears to my eyes. It was such a joy to be a part of your 2 big days. You were the sweetest, calmest bride, and your warmth and kindness made the whole morning feel so special. Seeing you, your sister, and your niece light up after getting ready truly reminded me why I love what I do. Knowing you all felt beautiful and confident makes me feel incredibly fulfilled and grateful. Thank you for trusting me with such an important part of your 2 day event. I’ll always remember the love in the room, the laughter, and how stunning you looked—inside and out.

Zaniffa did my makeup for 2 formal events in full glam - and I couldn’t be happier with her technique! She was able to recreate exactly the look I wanted, suited to the shape of my face.

Zaniffa and her team were wonderful for my wedding events. They were meticulous with both makeup and hair. Zaniffa did my makeup for both events and she is extremely friendly and easy to work with. My makeup turned out beautiful, lasted all day, and photographed well. I would highly recommend Zaniffa if you’re looking for a stress-free experience. More...

Zaniffa, thank you so much for showing up to my wedding and basically saving the day. You gave me the look I wanted and you did an amazing job with the rest of my bridal party. Thank you for also fixing the make up on my mother in law. You were so sweet to offer. I’m grateful our stars aligned and it all worked out the way it was supposed to. Can’t wait to work with you again! More...

Dear Zaniffa. Thank you so very much for helping me with my makeup and hair for my son's multiple wedding celebrations. You truly are gifted with a special talent to see inside and really help your clients enhance their own individual beauty and uniqueness. You put me at ease right away on day one and I really felt sooooo much more confident in my own skin at all the events over the course of the three days. Especially the final big reception night. Your expertise and skill was awesome and you truly went above and beyond with all the extra tips and suggestions that really personalized it for me and showed me how much you truly care about your clients and want them to be happy in their own skin. I would highly recommend you to anyone. Your professionalism and gentle nature are truly unique and a rare quality. Thank you again for making me feel so beautiful!!!🤗 More...

Zaniffa, where do I start?
First, I’m beyond happy and satisfied with Zaniffa’s work. She did my makeup for my wedding, and oh my god, she was so accommodating, reassuring and uplifting.
I don’t have my family with me here and don’t have a lot of connections, so going into finding a professional to do my makeup for me was nerve-wracking. I never had someone do my makeup without regretting the decision in the past, but not even a slight regret that I chose Zaniffa.
On top of her fantastic service, she was so willing to help me, knowing my circumstances that my wedding was planned in less than a month and my health wasn’t that great. She went out of her way to find me hair extensions, which is usually something that the customers themselves would do, but she is just a fantastic person.
She also recommended/connected me with a fantastic hair stylist who did my hair for the wedding, and I’m also so happy and satisfied.
Again, if you want someone who respects your wishes regarding what is more comfortable for you, go for Zaniffa. The client's happiness and satisfaction are her number one goal; no pushing something on you or convincing you to keep or remove whatever. She makes you feel pretty and, most importantly comfortable.
I’m dark-skinned, so it's always a struggle for me who will not make me look grey or pick weird colours; she did a fantastic job doing my makeup.
She still checks up on my health, and I’m thankful that I had a fantastic person prepare me for my special day.
Thank you Zaniffa
