    Wig
    Natascha B.

    I cannot express just how LOVELY my Fifi's experience was! As a stage IV cancer patient who's lost her hair for the foreseeable future, I had been hesitant about wearing wigs, fearing they'd make me feel like a stranger in my own skin. But the moment I sat in that chair, the folks at Fifi's met me with such care & reassurance, easing all those hesitations and making me feel confident, beautiful, & seen

    Some of the best shopping in the French Quarter is found on Royal Street and if your here during Mardi Gras then you must stop in to Fifi Mahoney's to try on a wig. Fifi's has a variety of wigs ranging in every color, length, shape, style, glitter embellishment and animal horn selection available. The staff are so friendly and helpful. My Mom and Sister went all out, which made our experience here much more memorable especially since everything and I mean everything I brought with me is bedazzled in glitter, lol! If you are shopping on Royal, Fifi's is a must see!

    We stopped into FiFi's during a girls' weekend and had the absolute BEST time. Emma, our wig specialist, helped us piece together a number of looks -- she has an excellent eye! So much fun, and we made a few new friends, too. I highly recommend adding this to your New Orleans itinerary--I'll definitely be back!

    I've had my eye on Fifi's for a long time. It looks as though it's a salon turned into shop which is so neat. We all known that amazing salon feeling when we're about to leave looking elevated! Not only would her wigs be a perfect fit for any day in Nola but they'd be fabulous for Mardi Gras season. Each year I try to spice up my parade costumes and I can always count on Fifi's for a show stopping wig, headpiece or accessories.

    Endless choices!

    I've been going to Fifi's now for ALMOST 20 years! Of my 14 wigs, only two of them were purchased elsewhere. It's the quality and customer service that keeps me coming back-best wig shop in town! Thanks to Bridgette for her stellar service getting my new wig fitted and trimmed to fit my face!

    I ended up finding this place by just ambling around the French Quarter, but I'm so glad I stopped in! What a way to get a souvenir that is truly New Orleans in its essence, and something I'll actually end up wearing and using. When I walked in, I loved the bright, colorful, and vintage ambiance, but was taken aback by the number of options and styling. Wigs range anywhere from $40-200, and I was clear with the staff about my price range, and they were happy to offer multiple suggestions and had me try on several wigs, showing us the correct way to put a cap and wig on, and providing nets and bobby pins. Super fun and unique experience - I ended up grabbing two!

    Well I ain't dead from covid, all the concerned comments got me thinking that I should write a review. So I am reviewing this wig shop that I went to at Mardi Gras. This is Mardi Gras 2020, the Mardi Gras to end all Mardi Gras? The cursed Mardi Gras?  The Mardi Gras the end of the world, like the restaurant perhaps? Either way, I've been getting a lot of use out of this wig, and I have to say it's turned me into a fan. Excellent quality, easy to style and care for. All throughout my trip, and it was a long trip, the trip of a lifetime, I have no regrets except that left that City at all. But all throughout my trip, whenever I said my wig came from Fifi Mahony's, everyone oooohed and ahhhed and said "Oh you went to the GOOD place". I got a blue and black ombre wig that suits me so well most people think it's my natural hair. Sometimes I just wear it around the house just to brighten up my day. This wig is more than just a wig, which anyone who's into wigs will tell you. But since it's my first this is a new discovery for me, and so I am sharing it with you, who may perchance be looking to buy your first too. And it will change your life. You may have great hair. You may think it's itchy. You may wonder how it will stay on your head. Well let me tell you, all of those questions are answerable. Not by me, go ask FiFi's! It's an easy way to transform a costume into a performance. It's a fast way to make yourself into a character. You can anonimize yourself, but also makeg yourself a staple, a signature of every environment you walk into. And if you go to Fifi Mahony's, they will sit you in chair and ask you about your wants, needs, and desires. Feel free to wax poetic about your drama, your insecurities. They will put them to rest, and place on your head a crown, a jewel, that makes you feel as you walk out that door, that you are the queen, or king, of the world. I don't know how they've been doing during quarantine, I don't know that you can sit in the chair yet, but I wanted to take the time to leave them some love. It was fellow yelper Joi, that referred me to them and I cannot thank her enough. There are many reviews coming down the pipeline, I don't know if I'm going to write them. But for all those who were wondering, I'm alright. And I'm a little more alright, because of this wig.

    Love my Fifi Mahony's wig! I totally get why everyone loves their wigs!!

    So can I review a place I've never been too but bought a wig in a silent auction at a breast cancer fundraiser? All I know is that Fifi Mahony's reputation stands on it's own! Every person I know raves about this place for their absolutely fabulous wigs! And they were totally right! I bought a gorgeous hot pink wig with a butterfly and other accoutrements in it! My best girlfriend's sorority alumni chapter had a breast cancer which is close to my heart bc my Mom is a survivor but my aunt (her baby sister) didn't make it. Can I say this wig was so much fun that multiple friends of mine and ladies I didn't know wanted to try it on and take pictures. I was more than happy to oblige! Now I can't wait to actually visit their store for my next purchase! Happy wig shopping y'all!

    This amazing styled wig!  Y'all it's so good.

    This small shop packs a punch! Super helpful staff, adorable collection of wigs, jewelry, and makeup for the exhibitionist in all of us. I cannot wait to get back here when I'm in NOLA again.

    You're in the French Quarter, Gawd girl, if you have one fabulous bone in your body, go in there and try on a couple of wigs. If your travels take you there during Mardi Gras, it's really a must and should be your first stop. Most of the smaller hair accessories were sold out, but I managed a handmade flower hair accessory that coordinated my wig for $30. The synthetic wigs are around 40-60, so prices are fair for being in the French Quarter. They don't want any pictures taken in the store, so they get cranky if they see you with your phone out. Put that wig on Girl and #Laissez les bon temps rouler!

    I never thought wigs/headdresses would be something I love, but this is ART! I now have 7 pieces and am heading down later today to hopefully pick up my 8th. This store represents everything I love about New Orleans - the creativity, the craft, the energy - thank you to the owner and staff for this gem of a small business!

    Best costume wig shop in the city! The staff will take the time to help you choose the perfect wig and/or makeup for your event. Super clean. Awesome selection. Simply put, a must-visit if you're serious about your costuming!

Live out your Steel Magnolias fantasies here, y'all! And Jessica will be your Dolly Parton (true story, as I was leaving the salon yesterday, Dolly came on the sound system so I couldn't help but think about this). For my first appointment, actually even before that, I had a consultation first where she assessed my hair and we discussed what I wanted and what could be done to it. I wanted a balayage situation with purple, but my hair is almost black so it would need to be lightened... gradually because my hair is damaged/thin so she wanted to be careful. My return appointment was an entire day affair thanks to the color lifting. The purple was amazing, however once I got home, I realized it didn't take in the back and there were some orange-y spots so I called the salon. Jessica spoke to me and insisted that I come back so that she could fix it. And I was there for another two hours at no charge. Ultimately there was a small bit of hair that did not take the dye and sometimes that's going to be the case. I still loved the results and literally got compliments wherever I went. I didn't even need touching up but I went back yesterday after four months and I don't know what she did differently but this color is a gorgeous, rich dark brown with slight purple highlights. And I am in love with my haircut, too (slight shaping and trim goes such a long way). Thanks to Jessica for being such an approachable, skilled stylist (check out her Youtube channel) and Sarah and the rest of the reception staff for being so nice. I'm so happy to have the Steel Magnolias salon of my dreams here in New Orleans!

The reception team was absolutely amazing and fantastic. The massage therapist herself is why I rated it two stars. This was probably the worst massage I've ever had.

That was interesting and distracting. She didn't focus on getting the knots out. I have had plenty of massages and know my stuff.

After we checked in we sat down to fill out the paperwork and were offered strawberry infused water that came in plastic cups. In a few mins two ladies in bathrobes joined us in the sitting area to wait for their service too. It was a bit weird that they do not have second area for clients that are changed into bathrobes and in between services to wait in privacy. I booked 60min massage and my technician was Emmy. She was very good, professional and always checking if pressure was right! I would definitely go back to see her. She listened to what I said and which area I would like her to focus on and I think I got one of the best foot massages so far. Room I had my massage in was rather small, had scarce decoration but I really liked satin sheets they have on their beds.
