Look no further! Brenda is the girl for eyeliner tattoo!…read more I have been looking for a place to get my eyeliner tattooed because I really didn't want to see smudged eyeliner by the end of the day anymore. Or when I accidentally scratch my eyes or do something crazy. Personally, I think semi-permanent make-up is the way to go for my lifestyle and makeup habits. I usually only wear natural make-up so I opted for the Simple Subtle Lash Liner. I browsed Brenda's reviews on Yelp, and I looked at her website and Instagram page before I contacted her. So Brenda enticed me to come in for consultation by seeing that she is all about focusing on au natural type semi-permanent make-up. Since that's what I wanted, I went ahead and booked an appointment. The procedure wasn't as painful or as scary as I thought it would be. The result also looked REALLY good! The colour was fantastic and I could totally see it so natural looking. After a few weeks, it healed, then I decided to go in for a touch up for a bit more of a darker look. It was so epic. Exceptional work. Pink walls. Very girly. Loved it.

Stop right now and look no further! Brenda is THE PREMIER microblading eyebrow artist in the city…read moreof Vancouver. I did my research folks. I read reviews, checked out Instagram feeds, watched YouTube videos, and scoured websites for months, before deciding on B for Brows. The end result is that I'm SO happy with my eyebrows after Brenda got a hold of them and so glad that I took the leap with microblading. I only wish that I had done it sooner. With my new waterproof brows, my morning routine is so much quicker and I'm much more confident leaving the house without make-up. If you are still undecided about where to go for microblading, here is why you should choose Brenda: *EXPERTISE - Brenda has expert training and specializes in microblading eyebrows! She does not do other cosmetic procedures as she is a master at shaping and sculpting beautiful and natural eyebrows. *HYGIENE - Brenda has a background in the Dentistry field, so she is trained and knowledgeable about hygienic practices. Her studio is beautiful, bright, clean and private! *PROFESSIONAL - Before your procedure, Brenda takes the time to talk with you about your eyebrows, from colour and shape, to thickness and arch - what you don't like and what you hope to achieve after microblading. During the procedure, she also explains in detail what she is going to do and why, so you are prepared. She also provides detailed instructions on AFTERCARE - super important! *FRIENDLY - Brenda, herself, is very friendly, warm, and welcoming. Feel free to chat her up while the numbing cream takes effect. *NATURAL - I wanted natural looking eyebrows and Brenda delivered. If you look through her portfolio, this is her specialty.

Not a fan of how small the space is; so tight that you risk bumping into the person sitting in the first chair as you try to squeeze past. Yes, you get a gel massage after your service and a cup of chai (they also offer to spruce things up with a little brow make up), but I don't think it's worth the price you're paying and what to get in return. Appointments recommended.

From the booking process all the way up to the application, I felt at ease. Stella not only has wonderful customer service, her craft is impeccable.

I HIGHLY recommend Stella for not only semi-permanent eyebrows, but she also offers other services such as eyelash enhancement and beauty marks.

I strongly warn anyone considering Premier Brow Bar in Metrotown. My experience with Jiya was…read moreunsafe, unprofessional, and dishonest. I went in for a simple eyebrow threading, but Jiya convinced me to do a lamination and then charged me for a full-face threading I never requested. She also performed an off-menu facial, doing deep extractions without my consent, which caused pain, ruptured capillaries, and skin damage. My eyebrow lamination was ruined. When I asked Jiya why facials were not listed on their website, she said they "do not offer it to everyone" -- essentially admitting this service is outside the scope of their licensing with Fraser Health. During the appointment, Jiya spent 20 minutes complaining about her personal breakup, saying her boyfriend ended their two-year relationship because she is Hindu, he is Sikh, and his mother refused the marriage -- completely unprofessional and irrelevant. The next day, I returned to request a refund. Staff acknowledged my damaged skin, took photos, and contacted the owner. I sent the photos, but the owner never called back and is now refusing all communication. My face is still sore from the damage. This business is unsafe, unskilled, and dishonest.

Service was fast. I thought the mall pricing was very reasonable. There was hand sanitizer available at the front of the store. Staff wore face masks.

On my next trip from LA to Vancouver, I needed a manicure desperately, and booked an appointment. I had a previous extremely grown out set, Lida patiently and meticulously took it off, starting from scratch. I've been getting Russian manicures consistently for years and this was by far and away my favorite one. Lida is meticulous with the cuticles, and extremely careful. I have quite thin skin and she navigated it fabulously. Extremely skilled hard gel application - beautiful beautiful work. She also made a suggestion for a very faint sparkle top coat, which really pulled the whole set together. Also - the salon is immaculately clean, and uses high quality builder gel and tools. I can't recommend this place highly enough. Will be back the next chance I get when I'm in the city again.

They tried hard to make sure I was happy? But ultimately it just didn't turn out as special as they…read moremake it seem. I have been doing Russian manicure with builder gel for over one year, this was the first time I had the healthy under nail drilled out and left ragged. The photo I've posted from top left is where I started. All my natural nail, gorgeous, healthy. Then the service last Monday August 4th turned into a week long saga of chipping and dissatisfaction of the uneven nail visible underneath. The bottom right photo is today August 11, their attempt to fix- included additional hard gel then color choice of more builder gel to hide the poor nail underneath. I'll be waiting to get back to the US where they care about 360 look of the nail and not just topical aesthetic. Truly shameful and a money grab. Top row left: Original healthy nail from my spot in the US. Top row right: first attempt EuroNail Bottom row left and middle: under drilling of healthy nail left like this after appointment. And asking the owners if they were proud and wanted this included in the review, they said yes this is how a Russian manicure looks Bottoms row right: one week later I came back to fix two chipped nails and change polish color.

All of the reviews you will read are TRUE! Polina is amazing...... "mic drop!" It was a wonderful experience to have such professionalism and an actual explanation of things. My previous salon just assumed I knew what I wanted and how things work. Well I didn't, which let to not liking my eyelashes the first few time. I also didn't understand why they were falling out in chunks and never looked quite right. Polina explained that the length and thickness you can wear will have limits based on your own lashes. My previous technician just seemed to throw whatever on and it always seemed rushed. There is real care and precision taken while Polina makes you look your best. I was much happier with my new look and my lashes felt more comfortable, more natural. I also feel they actually look more natural, even though they are fuller and curlier than I could ever hope to have with my mediocre genetics lol. I did the plush volume mix set. $120 for a new set, which included removal of the disaster set I had on. The Beauty Corner is small, but it's clean and comfortable with competitive prices. You get to listen to some old school tunes while Polina does her thing! Tips are also not expected. I tried to tip and she would not let me lol. It's kind of nice when you are already forking out so much Moolah! Just a heads up.....it's a little hard to find this place, so make sure you look for the address. There is no street sign or sandwich board to alert you. I walked right passed it lol!

I had a mixed Russian + classic full set done. Unfortunately, my experience was very different from…read morethe other reviewers. Please note that I have been regularly getting my lashes done for the last 4 years. I've recently moved to the Kits area so I was in search for a new technician. I have never had such an uncomfortable experience in all these years. The process was very uncomfortable and painful to the point where I even considered stopping the appointment. My eyelids were taped uncomfortably too high at the corners. The tape was pulling on my eyelids so hard that my eyes were pulled slightly open and the bright light was blinding me. I managed to wiggle my eyes out of the grip that I could keep my eyes 100% closed. My top eyelids felt too exposed and the glue was stinging me. Throughout the appointment, her hand kept resting on my forehead or nose which made it very uncomfortable and unprofessional as well. I was also disappointed with my initial consultation prior to beginning the appointment. I communicated that I wanted full, dramatic long lashes. There was one lash left from my previous set (done by a different technician) and she told me that the lash was too heavy for my natural lashes and that she wanted to preserve my natural ones. Fair enough, however I am fully aware of what I'm signing up for and the risks involved. I wanted something dramatic since I was leaving for a beach vacation the very next day and didn't want to put on any other extra makeup during this time. However, after some more back and forth, she insisted that we go a more natural look so I eventually agreed. Once the appointment was finished and I went home to have a good look, I was very disappointed since it did not have the dramatic look that I was hoping for. For a natural look, the lashes and texturing turned out nice. Unfortunately, it just wasn't what I wanted. Unfortunately, I will not be returning due to the uncomfortable procedure and unwillingness to cater to the client. In hindsight, I'm upset at myself for not directly speaking up or giving constructive criticism during my appointment. Live and learn.
