Better than I Could've Ever Imagined!

I'm SO glad I found Freebird Beauty Co! I've never been very confident in my own hair, as it often ends up being frizzy and hard to work with in photos, so naturally I was nervous about how it would look on my WEDDING day. Thankfully Freebird Beauty Co was exactly what I needed. Candice was amazing at making me feel comfortable during the trial, hyping me up the morning of, and capturing the vision I had for my hair better than I could have imagined! I've already gotten one of my friends to use Freebird for her wedding since, and I will continue to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and affordable wedding hairstylist! THANK YOU FREEBIRD BEAUTY CO!!!

Bridal Hair and Makeup

I chose Freebird for bridal hair and makeup for myself, 3 bridesmaids, and my mother. I could not be more pleased with the services I received from Ellie (hair stylist) and Nicole (makeup artist). They came to my home in Ancaster, arrived on time, and finished on time. I was worried that my townhouse would be a little too crowded for them to work in, but it was not an issue at all!

Ellie was excellent at combining the style that I liked with what physically worked the best for my type of hair. I really appreciated her honesty plus the end result was flawless - I received many compliments!

Nicole made sure that I still looked myself on my wedding day and was able to highlight my natural beauty. My makeup looked great throughtout my entire wedding even though it was a hot day and I was dancing. Fun fact - I had my hair and makeup trial on the same day as my hockey game. I was shocked that my makeup did not smuge after the game. I even had fake lashes and they did not fall off!

As for my bridesmaids, they could not say enough kind words about both Ellie and Nicole. They did an incredible job and everyone was happy with how their hair and makeup turned out. Most notable, my mother is 71 years old and both stylists made her look and feel beautiful on the inside and out.

I would highly recommend Freebird to anyone looking for bridal hair and makeup services :)

Amazing experience! Friendly and professional team!

I would 100% recommend Freebird Beauty. They did such an awesome job for my wedding hair and makeup - my bridesmaids and I were all receiving compliments all day long. My hair and makeup held up all day throughout August heat, and all night while dancing. The whole experience was so stress free and laid back, it was great. I was so happy with the experience and my hair and makeup honestly exceeded my expectations - I felt so confident and beautiful all day! I went for a more natural look while some of my bridesmaids did more glam and everyone was very happy with their look! I also did the hair/makeup trial a couple months before which was really helpful to try out styles and make adjustments for the day of.

Fantastic and unbelievably skilled humans

Freebird Beauty was amazing from day one. Michelle (coordinator) was responsive to all my questions and very professional. She was able to make adjustments as needed and was always following up to comfirm details. When I did my hair and makeup trial both Lindsey and Candace were professional, honest, warm and welcoming. They treated me like gold and made me so comfortable from the moment I walked in.

The day of the wedding they came prepared and were able to the entire wedding parties hair and makeup dream come true. One thing that all the bridesmaids said was that they were honest about how a hair style might look on them versus the pictures and what was realistic to accomplish, which they were all appreciative of. No one got out of the seat feeling misled about ehat they were getting. They were also all willing to do hair and makeup touch ups before leaving if anyone felt they needed it. They all communicated beautifully as a team as well as with each of us. Honestly, I would be booking them for any future hair/makeup needs and will recommend anyone I know to them.

Thank you so much! We had such a wonderful time with you all. XO

Really pleased with trial & day of wedding hair & makeup!

I had a great experience working with Michelle, Candace and Cara.
Michelle was responsive to my inquiries and the team was very flexible when I needed to change my request for hair and makeup numbers.

I loved the energy and vibe of their personalities. They bring all of their equipment including a large light and mirror. Most of my bridal party asked for a more natural look for makeup, which was perfectly done! Great quality of makeup which lasted all night (they also give little touch up kits which was super nice!) & we got lots of compliments for the day!

Thank you for helping to make us feel beautiful!

Feeling beautiful on the happiest day

Freebird Beauty Co. was an absolute joy to work with for my recent wedding. The bridal trial was thorough and entirely helpful, with the stylists being incredibly receptive to any ideas and inspiration I shared.

The wedding day was no exception to their wonderful services. Getting ready was a breeze because they kept everything efficient and seamless. And they made certain everything stayed in place and in tip-top shape for the duration of the day (no small feat given my stubborn hair!)

In addition to providing hair & makeup for me, they also provided both services for my mom, mother-in-law, and Maid of Honour, and everyone raved about the professionalism, friendliness, and talent of Kait and Lindsey.

Thank you so much to Freebird Beauty Co. for helping to make my wedding day so magical!

Best of the best

I cannot thank the team at Freebird enough for everything they did to make my day so special. Cara, Lindsey and Candice were the ultimate team and made everyone look beautiful! I would also like to give Michelle a special shoutout for always answering my questions so quickly- you made it so easy! What really stands out about this team is their attention to detail and their ability to make everyone feel comfortable! They are the friendliest team and made you feel comfortable the minute you sat in the chair! From the wedding trial to our wedding day they made me feel like a princess both times! Both mine and my bridal parties hair and makeup lasted ALL day and did not budge in the rain or humidity. I still receive compliments on my hair and makeup to this day. I could not recommend Freebird Beauty more! They made the entire process easy If you are looking for the best hair and makeup team- you have found them. :)

Perfect hair and makeup experience

From the trial through to the wedding day everyone at Freebird beauty was professional, timely and super friendly. Communication with their staff was easy for booking the trail/ wedding day and they were perfectly on time.

My entire bridal party felt very comfortable and the team executed everyone’s hair and makeup flawlessly.

Flawless Application!

I booked makeup services with FreeBird and was partnered up with Erin. She showed up to the venue on time and ready to work her magic. She finished all 6 ladies ahead of schedule and even stayed to do a few touch-ups between photos. Each had a different completion and look they wanted and Erin was able to accommodate to everyone. She brought such great energy with her and the ladies looked perfect! Thanks Erin!!

Mobile hair services

I booked Freebird Beauty for our hair for my wedding day, we had only four of us that wanted hair services which was the minimum number for FB while most others I contacted required a 5 minimum. The cost was very affordable as well. I was booked with Heather and had a hair trial with her a couple months before the wedding. I'm really glad we did the trial as I changed my mind with how I wanted to wear my hair after that!
The whole team was ready to communicate with and all my questions were answered promptly!
Heather arrived right on time for my wedding morning and was more than accommodating waiting for our last girl to show up (she was driving in from 3 hours away)
My hair didn't hold all night but that's a problem with my own hair, it never holds very long lol.
It looked beautiful still.
I would definitely recommend Freebird!

Candice Jones
Candice Jones
Co-Founder/Owner

I am the owner and Lead Hairstylist of Freebird Beauty Co (Formerly Candice Jones Hairstyling) My love of all things hair and makeup began when I was a child, developed in high school and flourished once my friends began getting married and going to special events! Starting this business was always something I wanted to do, so after my son was born, it was the perfect time to take a leap of faith and start. This is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, and I’m blown away by the support of my family, friends, and wonderful clients. I never could’ve imagined how much happier I would be doing what I love. Updos are my favourite hairstyles to do, and I love working with brides to create a custom look they can wear confidently on their wedding day! Making women look and feel beautiful is so rewarding! In my spare time, I’m usually spending time with my husband and two beautiful kids, baking, drinking coffee or planning the future.

Lindsey Daubney
Lindsey Daubney
Co-Founder/Owner

I’m Lindsey - I'm the Co-owner and Lead Makeup Artist at Freebird Beauty Co (Formerly Candice Jones Hairstyling). I have been very fortunate in my almost decade-long career to work in many aspects of the beauty industry, from television, editorial to theatre and fashion. Somewhere through all this, I found a happy forever home with wedding and beauty makeup. There is something magical that happens when you have the ability to make other women feel confident, strong and beautiful. In return, I’m gifted with feeling inspired and empowered by working with so many amazing women. This is where I feel I am meant to be in my career. This is what gives me the most joy. I feel particularly drawn to more natural looks. Enhancing your natural beauty with a heavy focus on skin and drawing out your inner glow is my absolute favourite. My goal is to have you looking and feeling like you, with just a pop of colour here and there!
