Jacqui Viljoen is a Cape Town-based makeup artist and hairstylist with a background in film, and a current focus on commercials and stills. Freelancing since 2012, she’s known for her versatility, creativity, and calm presence on set. Her skills span beauty, SFX makeup, hairstyling, and barbering—making her a valuable asset to any production.
Jacqui trained at City Varsity, and furthered her skills through courses in hairstyling and barbering. She’s also lectured at City Varsity and other short courses, sharing her skills and passion.
With a love for painting, drawing, sewing, sculpture and crafts, she channels that creativity into her work. When not on set, she’s likely dancing to eclectic beats or exploring the mountains. Always open to new adventures, Jacqui is available for travel and thrives in collaborative, visually driven environments.
