I would definitely return to this shop as I also love and prefer supporting women owned businesses!

I just found this in my drafts. This review is from when I got my eyebrows microbladed in July of…read more2019. THIS WOMAN IS A FKING LEGEND. Okay so I've been looking into microblading for a few months because I have little soul patches for eyebrows (hi moms, please take your daughters to trained professionals to shape their eyebrows and make sure they never have tweezers unattended in case they overpluck their eyebrows and their hair never grows back like me) and as soon as I saw Alina's Yelp I was like "this is her". I was sorely mistaken. She is THE ONE. She's seriously so amazing and I really will be a customer life. Couple things: 1) don't think because she charges less than someone else that she isn't as good as someone else charging $600+. She USED to charge $600 and decided that a) its better for her clients and better for her business if she stays affordableI don't (win-win for both of us) b) she can people who may not think they have the opportunity to be able to afford such a luxury and c) her supplies (which are very expensive) only last a year anyways so why not get the most use out of them possible? 2) she drew out this shape on me that had no harsh points or high arches and I was like... "uhh, I dunno" and she was like "I promise, it's not the right thing for your face and it's an old beauty trend that is outdated. Trust me" (and I'm thinking like have you seen this RBF? I need sharp ass brows to let a hater know I stay the coldest) so I just went with it and I was feeling like I was going to walk out of there unhappy and I will be honest and say that it took a full 48 hours for these brows to really win me over but I'm at like 72-96 hours in now and I am OBSESSED. 3) listen to Alina always. She honest to God is the expert. You might have a personal preference but remember how you feel looking at your moms 80s yearbook photos and remember how you feel looking at the lil old lady's that wear heavy blush to church. Makeup adapts and evolves; that's the fun thing about it is that it's always changing as the world is progressing. Alina has seen trends come and go but overall she knows what looks best for the shape of your face and that is timeless and ageless and won't stick out like a sore thumb in old photos so listen to her like she's your grandmother. She also did my lash extensions which (you guessed it!) I'm super in love with. Do yourself a favor. If you're reading this and you've been contemplating if this is your girl or if you wanna get this done, the answer is yes and yes so book her now. Also, for what it's worth, I've heard of a lot of people saying they know people who got this done and the healing process was kinda gross and I'm attaching a photo from day 3. The picture collage is from Friday before and after. And the other picture is Monday, just over 72 hours into having it done and it looks great. As a disclaimer, and this may not be okay for everyone but I had zero bleeding during the session and close to zero scabbing over the weekend, I did wear makeup today so I took a baby wipe and gently buffed off the top layer of gunk since it appeared to be more of what looked like makeup I may have missed from when I got ready and cleaned them off with a watered down (okay, it was saliva) q-tip and it just sort of seemed to exfoliate this layer off the top that ended up revealing even better brows than I had already loved before. The pigment won't settle fully until about a month in but I could care less. Everyday I just fall more in love with these eyebrows. They are soooooo natural and real looking!!!! Thank you Alina!!!!!!!

When I started looking for someone local, I came across Jenny's Yelp ! So many pictures and mostly great reviews. A negative review here and there but I figured they were the problem and not Jenny. My first appointment with Jenny was in February. During the first appointment alone she worked wonders !!! My eyebrows were thin and misshaped from years of over tweezing. Jenny spent time mapping everything out and making sure I was happy with the shape and placement. The numbing cream helped, only felt slight discomfort, nothing serious. A few of my coworkers noticed something different about me when I told them and showed them my before picture they said they wanted to go to Jenny too! So far 2 of them have and they are very happy with their results after 1st appointments. I just saw Jenny today for my 1st touch up about 6-7 weeks after my first appointment. Satisfied again ! Jenny is the best ! And I hope she stays in business for a realllllly long time because I will be contacting her for touch ups when I need them.

Previously I have gotten my eyelashes done at a handful of different places, and this was by far the best experience. I decided on getting a full set of hybrid eyelash extensions after taking a break from them for a couple years. It has been about 5 days since then, and I have not lost a single eyelash yet which is really amazing considering before I would lose a few or so in the first week. Based on this experience, I'm considering going back to getting my eyelashes done on a regular basis because I'm so happy with the results. Booking an appointment was really smooth and easy, because Joyce was quickly responsive by text. I was able to get a slot just a couple days after I texted her. Also, the beauty studio itself was easy to find with lots of parking spaces, and it felt very clean inside as well. I'm looking forward to going back for my eyelash fills and maybe try some other procedures too!

After searching for an artist who I could trust and feel comfortable putting something permanent on…read moremy face, I came across Celine's Beauty Studio through social media. Reading into Celine's background and seeing the variety of clients she caters to, I felt that this place was a good choice. Sending a direct message to have Celine answer my questions and concerns given my face type and products I used, she made me feel comfortable in my decision so I booked the appointment. Good to let her know your skin type, products you use and such so she can guide you on what is the best direction for microblading for your skin before your appointment. I became very nervous the day before and she was able to talk on the phone to voice any concerns I had. I was just nervous and needed to verbally hear comforting words. Haha. The appointment was great. Beautiful office! She took her time to walk through what was going to happen so there weren't surprises and she got an idea of what I was looking forward to for the results. So, yes, all in all, I was very comfortable and you can trust her expertise/experience. I was there for microblading but she recommended shading if I wanted it. I asked what that would do for me since I wanted more natural but trusted her judgement and went for a little shading along with the blade strokes. Glad I did! Worth it. The touch up appointment went the same. I highly recommend Celine's Beauty Studio and anyone working with her.

Amazing Experience - Highly Recommended!…read more We had such a great experience at this shop! First, my daughter Jona had her very first nose piercing (nostril), and everything went so smoothly. The artist made her feel comfortable and explained everything clearly. The piercing looked beautiful, and the healing process was surprisingly fast. After seeing how well it went for her, I decided to finally get my septum piercing -- something I had always wanted to do. I thought it might be painful, but honestly, when you trust your artist and you really love what you're doing, the whole experience becomes exciting rather than scary. It went great, and my healing process was fast too! A big kudos to the artist who took such good care of us. We left feeling happy, confident, and with no worries about the healing process. As a mom, seeing my daughter have a positive first experience meant a lot to me. Definitely 5 stars for us! Highly recommended for anyone thinking about getting a piercing.

When I first reached out through Yelp to schedule an appointment I got a reply right away but then…read morewhen it came to actually scheduling something I got no further responses. I wanted to come here because of the reviews and it's close to my house, so I started a new request and this time the owner actually had an artist (Pierre) contact me, but she seemed annoyed that I reached out again. So from the start the customer service was lacking. But the reviews were good so I went ahead with the appointment. During the visit everything went ok. The artist didn't say more than a few words to me the whole time, but that's fine. The tattoo itself took about an hour, which is about how long it took him to set up so all in all I was there for a little less than 2 hours. The artist didn't even have to draw the tattoo, I sent him pictures ahead of time. A simple butterfly. And I was so overcharged I still can't believe I actually paid that much. When he told me the price ($350! For a tattoo that took an hour and he didn't even have to draw) I didn't even know what to say. I am not a confrontational or argumentative person, so I paid and left. But now I can't get over how much he had the nerve to charge me for this service. And, being a polite person and still slightly in shock/denial over being told the price, I still actually tipped him! So that's my bad. And, looking closely at the tattoo there's several wonky lines and it's not really symmetrical. So I'm pretty bummed about being extremely overcharged for a so-so tattoo and I definitely wouldn't recommend this place.
