Great place to get lash extensions. Reasonably priced services. Ambiance is very relaxing. Angelina is a wonderful technician.

I had such a lovely experience getting my lash extensions done! Winnie and Chloe were so welcoming, professional, and attentive to the little details. They made sure I felt comfortable throughout the process, and I really love how my set turned out! You can tell they genuinely care about their work and making sure you leave happy. Thank you so much for such a sweet experience! read more

I met Winnie back in 2018 and I loved going to her to get my eyebrow done, she's the only one I always trusted. When I saw people on TikTok talking about lamination and how their eyebrow was really bad done by other I was very scared but when I saw that she was doing eyebrow lamination and others stuff I was very curious and I trusted her! And I loved it! I never had an issue going to her and every time it's just amazing. Her team/students and her does an amazing job and I would only recommend her. She makes you feel very welcome & the vibes are amazing, she makes you feel beautiful after leaving her place. read more

I love the work that Winnie does. She did my brows almost 2 years ago and they still look amazing. I've also had a lash lift, which has really sped up my ability to get out of the house in the morning. I love that my lashes do not need mascara (unless I'm going for that extra, extra pop) and are so low maintenance. Most recently I've done the lip blushing, which is still healing but so far has healed nicely. I am thrilled with the results and can't wait to see the final product in about 2 months. This pic is 1 weeks after I had my lip blushing appointment. Winnie's studio is relaxing and I tend to fall asleep as she's doing my lashes. She takes great care in making sure her work is flattering on your face and skin type. read more

I am so happy with my lash lift and tint and brow lamination--I seriously look and feel younger and more vibrant! My lashes look longer, darker, and perfectly curled without needing mascara, and my brows look fuller or more polished. The shape is spot on, and they stay put all day without any extra product. The whole process was super relaxing with calming music and a gentle touch. The space was clean, cozy, and professional, and I felt completely comfortable throughout. The staff places a soft bolster under the back of your knees when you lie down and offer a cozy blanket. It's such a confidence boost to wake up feeling put together with no effort. Highly recommend if you want to enhance your natural features. I've been here a few times and I will continue to come back! read more

Winnie is very professional and the place is very clean and relaxing. She did a great job with my eyebrows tattooed. She's made me feel relaxed during the procedure. I recommend this place. read more

Winnie and Hannah were amazing! I had micro-blading done 3 years ago and needed a redo. Hannah, with Winnie's mentorship, was thorough and just spot on. Gave me a natural but fabulous look. And she is light handed so the pain was barely there. Will definitely be sending friends and family here. read more

Excellent care and attention. Great appointment availability, there are lots of appointment intervals. Winnie is the best!

I first went to Winnie in early 2024 for a lash lift and tint. She was very kind and gentle from the start. She is very genuine. I decided to return to get my eyebrows tattooed and I brought my mother in law with me. She had tattooed eyebrows from someone else many years ago and Winnie offered great advice on how to re-do them. More than a year later, we've not only returned for brow touch ups, but for another lash lift and I am considering a couple other things. Winnie is my go-to and I trust her suggestions and opinions. She also formally teaches these skills. If you're looking for brows, lashes, lips, etc., Winnie is your girl! read more

I'm Not one to write yelp reviews but I extremely loved the work of Winnie. I'm a very picky person as I had previous bad experiences with eyebrow tattooing. Either the brows were too thick or color did not stay which was a freaking bummer. One day my mom came back with some natural but beautiful eyelashes that finally SUITED her eye shape and she was bragging about a new place that opened up around our area. She proceeded to tell me she was getting her brows done and I was like SWEET she can get them done first and if it comes out horrible then I avoid another person messing up my brows. Buttttt gratefully they came out so perfect I was too excited to get mine done and let me tell you how happy I was with the after result. The hair strokes were so perfect I received compliments at work. There's nothing better in this world then feeling beautiful and paying for what you are asking for. This may be a lot but honestly I believe people should appreciate the hard work of others. Now the vibe of this place is very soothing. The music makes me fall asleep haha. She keeps you cozy if needed. Usually I get anxiety going into beauty places but never here. There was actually one time I asked for mega volume eyelashes and I was so nervous to ask her to trim them down because i didn't like how they looked on my eye. When I asked her she was so nice about it and cut it down to a more desired and foxy eye look. I think this is a very important quality trait to have as a beauty artist especially with people who are scared to ask. There is a lot I could write but hopefully this is enough to show the appreciation I have for finally having eyebrows and not doing my makeup everyday. I just really am happy with the results. Thank you!!! read more

This place is absolutely amazing! After my first time getting it done by Winnie, I was absolutely OBSESSED. 5-6 years ago, I called for a consultation and appointment to get my lashes done. Winnie walked me through the process, showed me the type of lashes and glue she uses, and let me know how long it would take. I was going to Mexico and didn't want to keep applying strip lashes, so this was a great alternative. I showed her the strip lashes that I normally use and she was able to replicate the look! Fast forward to today, I still get my lashes done by her. I typically go for hybrid for upkeep day to day and then volume for vacation. I'll admit, I went to see several different lash techs when I kept moving around the bay area, and I always found myself coming back to her no matter how far away I had moved. She is the BEST lash tech in the Bay Area. My lashes stay fluffy, and will always last me 5 weeks for regular hybrid and 4 weeks if I go on vacation to some tropical beach vacation. My skin typically gets oily in the winter time, so I can see my lashes fall out faster, but thats just how my skin is. I've went snowboarding with her lashes and was pretty solid. I've been thrashed around by crazy waves in Mexico, and my lashes were pretty solid. I was in the Philippines and then Japan for a month and my lashes were still hanging on tight. My most recent adventure was to Bora Bora in French Polynesia, and LET ME TELL YOU. WINNIE HAD DID SUCH AN AMAZING JOB, I HAD TO SHOUT HER OUT WHILE ON VACATION. I was in the ocean for at least 8hrs a day and my lashes were still looking amazing by the time I got home. I will note that my experience may be very different compared to some people. However, I do acknowledge that my natural lashes shed and I always try to make my appointment when they shed so my new lash extensions can last longer. Eyelash extensions are not exactly permanent, so you would have to get them filled for upkeep. Quick tips: - Make your appointment online - Show up on time so you don't ruin the flow of appointments! If you come late, this affects the time for everyone else after you - Always good to show Winnie a strip lash as an example of what you want - Be as detailed with the look, show pictures - Do not drink coffee/tea before the appointment, you will not be able to use the restroom while in the middle of her doing her work - Use the restroom before your appointment (its in the back) - I wash my hair/shower before my appointment because you are not allowed to get lashes wet for 24hrs. After care: - Keep lashes dry for 24hrs minimum if you want them to last long - I avoid heavy cream around my eyelash line to help lashes last longer - Avoid oil based make up remover, this will break adhesive and can make lashes fall out faster - I brush my lashes lightly to fix them if they're looking stuck together or misplaced - Make sure you clean all the eye boogers and crust to prevent infections read more

I had an amazing experience with Winnie and her team at Allure Studio and Academy. I had eyebrow tattoo services and a facial. Winnie tattoed my eyebrows and wow what an amazing job! Soft technique that I didn't feel a thing and what a beautiful job she did on my eyebrows! The facial I had was fantastic. 90 minute facial complete with amazing massage and technique and it also included a head massage and shoulder, neck and arm massage as well. I was totally pampered and spoiled. I highly recommend Allure Studio and Academy. Thank you Winnie and your team! read more

Winnie is amazing. The guy they had come in two years ago has stopped me from coming in. Stopped my whole family. I came in last time, and got a pedicure and he filed my Big toe down, so it was bleeding and hurt while I was wearing shoes for work I had worked three jobs at this point in time, my toe was hurting for a whole week. This place used to be super busy all the time, now when you go there there's almost no one there. I don't think it's a coincidence. I came in for an emergency, I was trying to take my nails off at home and then decided to come here my mom had Winnie for a pedicure and I the guy and this man makes me want to cry don't want him near me at all. I wanted my nails removed, I didn't care if I had to soak them and wait an hour I just wanted them removed!!! He literally told me that he couldn't remove them. This place used to be busy, since he's been here, I've never seen more than two people in at the same time. He's driving away customers!!! I used to come here all the time How do you go into a place with bad nails and leave with bad nails He doesn't listen to you like at all. He files nails heavily to one side and expects u to not feel when he cuts a cuticle. Really upset how do I go back to work and convince people to pay 1200 a month on a car note while I point out the numbers with these trash things. He makes me so upset I could cry. Spent the only window of time I had on his bs read more

This place is a hidden gem. Winnie was absolutely professional! My biggest worry was the pain involved with my nano brow. She explained the process with her low-key, upfront, honest professional demeanor. Highly recommend this place for your cosmetic needs. This place is clean and well sanitized (which says a lot nowadays). They do take credit, cashless. And as for the end result, I enclosed a before and after of myself. I'm satisfied with the results. This one is a definite recommendation for me. read more

Came in for an acrylic soak off had my acrylics on for about a week (from a different shop) for my sisters wedding then had to get them taken off for work. He charged me $20 which is a little high for a soak off. Usually when I go on for soak offs it's never a problem in other shops but when I came in the male nail tech proceeded to complain that it won't come off because he couldn't rip them out and had to do the soak off instead. He kept clicking his tongue and seemed irritated through the whole process. I wish they would've just told me they couldn't do it otherwise I would've went somewhere elsez Overall he still left some acrylic on my nails and did a messy job. I left with gunk all over my hands and super dry hands/brittle nails. I washed my hands as he offered then seeing how dry my hands were i asked for lotion to moisturize. This is the aftermath... read more

Love this place! Super convenient for where I was located that day and they were ready for me when I arrived after confirming my appointment. The book of colors was really neat - makes choosing colors easy without having to stand there in front of the wall the whole time (not just for gel nails). Pedicure was amazing! She really took her time w/ the massage and also included hot stones which were actually hot (holy gawd)! Super efficient and relaxing considering my feet were pretty banged up before heading in. Incredibly clean and cute spot w/ parking. Definitely will be my go to spot when I'm in the area. read more

Winnie is the best! I hadn't had my lashes done after trying a lot of places but I have sensitive eyes and the glue would make my eyes water and I had to take them off... So 2 years later ,covid happens and I didn't do make up for 6 months but w the masks only our eyes show so I gave Winnie a try since I get my pedis there too and bam !... her glue didn't irritate y eyes at all! I used Latisse, but it sucks everynight to do it and just as expensive anyways so go ahead and book Winnie ,she's so sweet! (Place is clean and temp is taken at entry ,social distance is respected and prices are way lower than others in area) read more

I've been going to Winnie for lash extensions for 4 years. I've also gotten eye lash enhancement and my brows done. I've moved, and still travel out to the beauty bar for lashes and permanent makeup. Winnie always does an amazing job, and I always leave feeling great. She is kind, listens to what I want, makes suggestions, and is a true artist! I wouldn't trust my face with anyone else! read more

I been here once and it will be the last. ZERO starts if I could. DO NOT GET TRICK WITH THE REVIEWS, THEY ARE NOT FOR THE NAIL SERVICES... Let's start with the not so bad. The pedicure was decent. The girl who helped me tried her best. I can tell she did all she could but it just wasn't to my standards. Now, the guy who did my manicure was just horrible. His attitude, his professionalism, his demeanor, his whole customer service was just the worst I ever experienced. I broke a nail and the place I normally go to was booked. So, I looked for a place with great reviews near my location at the time and found The Beauty Bar. I called ahead of time to see if they could help me and they said yes. When I got there the girl who greeted me was nice, she had me seat down and put my feet in water. She then realized I had gel on my toes so she had to get my feet out of the water, dry them to take care of the gel polish in order to continue, no big deal, we all make mistakes. Then The guy started on my manicure, I been to many places where the tech starts working on your finger nails while someone else works on your toe nails and I'm ok with that. The guy helping me used the electric nail filer to remove my gel, I personally prefer the foil wrap but it's ok if the tech knows what he/she is doing so I didn't complaint. What I did find weird is that he would not even move to my left or right side, he had me twisted in order to work on the opposite hand. Once he was done removing the gel I though ok he will continue after she is done, every place I go to they have me wash my hands before they continue with the manicure. No, he continued working on my hands, he cut my nails, put my fingers in water and somewhat took care of my cuticles. I came in with a beautiful set of gel nails, long and square, I did tell him to cut them a little but we never talked about changing the shape. And I would have been ok if he had changed the shape to a consistent shape, all oval, all round but no, the shape of my nails was not consistent at all. I thought fine, he cut them already, not much we can do so I let him continue. He knowing that he had residue from the powder of the electric nail filer went ahead and dip my finger tips in the same bowl of water he had from before and proceed to paint my nails. Seriously? Once he finished, he poured some oil in his hand and gave me a painful massage on my hands and half of my arm. I paid and tip and got out of there, there was no point in me complaining if that is the best they can do there is no way they could have fix it and I was not going to risk it. I tipped because we all are working to make a living and I understand but do your job with passion if you are not able to then look for a different job. That is why I am writing this review, to let you reading decide if you want this kind of service. Please see the pictures... Not even an hour later the polished was peeling. I ended up cutting my nails because they are too thin to go anywhere else for a repair manicure. You can tell he went to deep an uneven with the electric nail filer and there is nothing else I can do but wait. More than angry, I'm disappointed. read more

I normally go to the Beauty Bar just to get my brows waxed. Also, I'm not the kind of person to get my nails done unless there's a special event, or if I'm traveling. To keep it short, Jenny did an amazing job with my nails! I usually get gel nails, but opted to try their dip powder instead. In the end, I love how natural looking my nails came out to be! I'm definitely satisfied with Jenny's work and highly recommend her! read more

Winnie has so much attention to detail when she does them! My husband has also come a few times to get pedicures with me, and he likes it too haha. I'm SO happy this place opened!

Winnie does an amazing job with eyelashes, and tints! She also finessed my eyebrows and I can't rave about her enough!

My experience has been nothing less than perfect with Winnie. My first appointment with Winnie I got my eyebrows microbladed and she also did my eyelashes. She took her time to map out my eyebrows and consult with me about what my perfect eyes bows would be. I trusted her and I am so glad I did! Getting your eyebrows microbladed is not for the faint of heart. The needle and recovery process hurt! But it was so worth it, I am in love with my eyebrows!! Winnie killed it! For my eyelashes, I wanted a lil something extra since I had an event the day after. I got the dramatic volume set with a cat eye effect and oooeee! After seeing my eyelashes I knew that I did not want anyone else but Winnie to do my lashes from then on. Winnie's hands are so gentle and she pays attention to the slightest of details. You can really tell she loves what she does and strives to please her clients. read more

I had high hopes for this place but was disappointed. I made an appointment for 2pm and was called back to come an hour early. I spent over 2 hours here for a pedicure and dip powder nails. My pedicure was ok, she didn't cut my nails evenly and after a week I had to trim them down myself. The dip powder was very sloppy. It is chunky and after a week my hair gets stuck under it. I should of known not to get it done when he did not even know how to properly remove my old ones. read more

Honestly, i'm not one to give 1 star. But as the days have gone by since Friday it just keeps getting worse and worse. First, the male who did my nails (said he was the only male who works there) seemed to be in a rush and did not do quality work at all. I also got a pedicure by an older lady and she was amazing! I would go back ONLY for pedicures and ONLY for her. My nails are not uniform and very uneven (see pics). And this is after asking 3, 4, 5 times to file down the uneven parts. I have been getting my nails done for years and I have two people in my family who are nail technicians, so I know my way around acrylic tips being uneven. Guess what? My right thumb still looks as if there's a mountain on it. He could not at all do the shape I requested, to the point of completely filing down to the tip of my right pointer finger. This led to an uneven shape and obviously uneven acrylic. I asked for black tips with a natural color. He proceeded to use a pink that looks more like orange and instead of black tips, painted tiny black tips in gel paint. When he was done I had to ask 3 TIMES and ended up being almost every every finger that he filed the gel down so much that there was no black on the ends of my nails. and because he was in a hurry when he did touchups, one of my nails is completely matte black instead of having a shiny topcoat on top. Now for alllll of that and over an hour for just my nails, here's what happened price wise. When I called I said I needed a full set and take off my current nails. He said $40. I said I wanted a gel pedicure and he said $30. When I go to checkout after all of this, the girl looks at my nails and says "60..." then looks at my toes and goes "40..." then looks at me and says okay $120. ummmmm OKAY WHAT? so yeah I'm never going back. Horrible job and WHAT is with that pricing?! and remember-- this was 3 DAYS AGO. Now I have to go pay to have them fixed all over again. read more

I came back to Winnie to have my eyebrows fixed! After years I years of plucking, (there were parts that didn't grow back), I was ready to get them evened out. After discussing what the best option was for me, we decided to go the ombré route. I honestly didn't realize how uneven my original brows were until she measured & outlined my new shape (so embarrassing!! Why didn't anyone tell me?!!). Anyways, Winnie was very precise with her outlining & I could tell she really cared for her work. The procedure didn't feel like it took too long & the pain was super minimal. She thoroughly explained the aftercare & advised me to come back in a few weeks for my touch up. Can't wait to go back. Thank you, Winnie!! I appreciate your artistry!! read more

Just tried out their new dip powder nails and I LOVE THEM! Usually I get acrylic done, but they offered to let me try dip this time and I absolutely love the way they turned out. The color is beautiful and they feel much thinner and lighter than acrylic nails, I would DEFINITELY recommend trying them out. I've been going to Beauty Bar for about a year now and I've always had amazing experiences here! Jenny usually does my nails (she NEVER disappoints!) and always makes sure that they turn out perfect/that I like them. Other than that, I've gotten my eyelashes done by Uyen and I always love the way they turn out. 10/10 recommend. :) read more

CANT STOP WONT STOP NOW! Got my first lash lift here at the Beauty Bar.. and I. Am. Addicted.!!! Can't remember who I saw, but the gal was super nice and very soft spoken- which definitely goes with the zen/spa vibe. I got my lash lift about 5 weeks ago and it's still thriving. I put on mascara almost everyday, as well & use make up remover/wipe to wash off the product. Only downside is that the faux bed that you lay on for an hour.. really hurts. It's a bit uncomfortable but I was still able to doze off for a few minutes. The price is affordable & decent- making an appointment is effortless, I used the yelp online communication & texted Kelly. She was able to find me an appointment within a few days. There is a parking lot behind the building, but I didn't look for it. I just parked meter for a bit over an hour, which i didn't mind. Will definitely be coming routinely!! read more
