Dr. Laura Reed, OD, CPCP, DAAM is absolutely phenomenal! I had my eyebrows done by her and couldn't be happier with the results. She is not only board-certified and highly skilled, but also incredibly gentle and professional. Her workspace is immaculate--completely aseptic--and the entire procedure was painless. I felt so relaxed in her dental chair that I actually fell asleep! That's how comfortable and confident I felt in her care. If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with permanent cosmetics, I highly recommend Dr. Reed. She is a true artist and perfectionist, and I am beyond thrilled with my brows! read more

Dr. Reed is a MIRACLE worker. I walked in looking like a tired mom of a mean teenager, and I walked away looking like a NOT SUPER TIRED mom of a teenager!!! Thank you DR REED read more

Dr Laura is amazingly talented! First she a true doctor, board certified and been doing makeup tattooing for 19 years! She listens to what you want, takes her time measuring and making sure the results will be perfect before she starts with the ink. Her office, as sterile as a hospital and then some. She makes sure you are comfortable during the entire procedure. She does not rush her way through the procedure or touch-up. Yes, it may take a few weeks to get into her but that's a good thing because she has lot of return clients and she just that awesome. You won't be disappointed, call her!!! read more

The owner, Dr. Laura Reed, is an amazing medical professional, and I absolutely love my eyebrows! Laura is very honest, straightforward, and is Board Certified and Licensed in Permanent Cosmetics. Her work is of the highest caliber and I will never again waste my time or money with anybody else! I have nothing but high praise for her impeccable work. Laura is extremely detailed and took her time to draw on my brows, measuring them, and making sure they were perfectly symmetrical. She listened to my preferences, added her own professional knowledge, and created some gorgeous brows for me. She is super kind and welcoming and is not just in the permanent make-up business to make money. Laura truly cares about her clients, is incredibly experienced, and takes pride in her work. Her business is so professional and her clinic-like procedure area is extremely sanitary. From start to finish Laura went through every detail with me. She truly is AMAZING! I relied on her expertise and guidance, and my new brows are perfectly beautiful in both shape and color. Thank you Laura, I could not have found a better artist ANYWHERE! I happily give you a five-star review and absolutely recommend you to anyone who is thinking about getting any permanent make-up services. You are the BEST! ~ Sue W. read more

I was long overdue to get my permanent eyebrow and eyeliner redone but had been procrastinating due to the retirement of my former technician. I spent over a year asking friends. Thank goodness I found Artistic Cosmetic Solutions during my online research. Dr. Laura Reed let me know exactly what to expect and gave me great advice on what procedures may or may not work for me based on my skin type/face shape, etc. I could tell that she was motivated by the best outcome for me, not by her pocketbook. She gave me detailed prep instructions for the brows/liner appointment so we could achieve the best possible result as a team. Laura took great care and time to draw my brows on before the actual procedure so I knew I would be happy with the end result before she ever began. I felt very confident to be working with such a perfectionist. I was also very comfortable with the minimal pain level that Laura was able to achieve with her anesthetics, something very different from my past experiences. The after-care instructions were very well done so I could refer to them as often as I needed to and Laura was always available by phone or text. Dr. Laura Reed is very much the expert and artist, and her ongoing professional education and research shows up in the final result. read more

My Lovely Dark Brows Oh, poor me, I'm in a deep depression, Years came and went and with them taken, My lovely dark eyebrows and expression, Now my face is purely an abomination!! I've sorely missed those lovely brows of mine, I'm in a state of wistfulness, I've been without for quite sometime, My vacated face is complete disorderliness! Confidence giving, arched and narrow, Handed down from my grandmother, Perfect form, like the fletching of an arrow, If chances for more, I'd sure take another. So, set an appointment to get tattooed, There's more than one way to skin a cat, A little scary...if it's bad you're screwed! If it's really bad, you'd better buy a hat!! But, I was fortunate and now full of cheer, Because I'm just thrilled to wake and see, When I gaze into my bathroom mirror, My lovely dark brows looking back at me! I owe it all to the renowned Dr Reed, She gave me my inscrutable countenance back, So if your brows are missing--take heed, Trust her for your miraculous brow comeback!! Thank you ever so much Dr. Laura Reed!! I couldn't be more thrilled with the new me. They just might be better than the originals! read more

What a wonderful experience! The whole experience with Dr. Laura felt so safe and healthy, involved so little pain and was exactly what I asked her for. She taught me how to care for my brows, which meant the whole process was easy from start to finish. She listened carefully to what I wanted and delivered it. I have saved so much time in my morning routine since getting these brows. My friends have asked how I got such gorgeous brows! Overall an excellent experience!! Strongly recommend! read more

Let me begin by saying I may just be the worst permanent makeup client ever. I have the pain tolerance of a three-year-old and the attention span to match. Dr. Laura was so patient and so good. She worked within my parameters and totally put me at ease. The end result is beautiful!!! Strongly recommend! Five stars!!! read more

If you're looking for a consumate professional for permanent make-up, you can't go wrong with Dr. Laura. She did my eyebrows and I am delighted.

I LOVE DR REED!! I was tired of constantly having smeared eyebrows after working out or teaching my Zumba classes and decided to finally get my eyebrows done. I didn't want to cheap out and get crappy results. I'm so glad I did my research and went with Dr Reed. She is so sweet and her work is worth every penny! I love my new eyebrows and the fact that I can dance, swim, wrestle & chase kids around all day and still have flawless eyebrows is icing on the cake. 06/13/16 It's now been just over a week since I got my eyebrows done. Scanning is gone and brows are gorgeous! read more

Well, so far there has been a lot of fading since the second appointment. I wasn't that pleased to begin with because my eyes looked a lot smaller after the procedure. Another cosmetic tattooist said that it was done wrong. So I am left with mediocre semi-permanent results. read more

Ok...so it is one year later... I still love my eyebrows. They have healed up beautifully. The shape and color are natural. I have NO regrets. Thank you Laura! read more

Finally got my eyeliner done! No more smudging, fighting with liquid liner and no more needing to reapply because its wearing off by mid day (I have very oily skin). I am incredibly happy with the results. My morning routines now are a breeze! read more

Dr. Laura is amazing. She did my eyeliner and eyebrows, and I can't believe how painless the procedure was. She also gave me exactly what I wanted. She's super nice and easy to talk to and made sure I was comfortable throughout. I would definitely recommend her! read more

I just had my eyebrows tattooed by Dr. Reed, and I ask myself, "Why did I wait so long to do this?" It's honestly the best decision I've ever made and I am more than pleased with the outcome. NO MORE PENCILS!! :) Dr. Reed provides exceptional service. I've done my research on permanent cosmetic artists; yet Dr. Reed is the only permanent make-up artist out there who is also a licensed optometrist! The actual tattooing process only took about an hour and it was absolutely painless. I was so relaxed, that I could have fallen asleep. Dr. Reed is an amazing artist . She is very patient and extremely thorough. Her work is absolutely beautiful! She really took her time with me in choosing the shape and color, designing the eyebrow and most importantly, she really listened to what "I" wanted. Her office is IMMACULATE, with the highest standards of cleanliness, sterility and professionalism. I love the constant compliments that I now receive about my eyebrows. I will definitely visit Dr. Reed for any future applications. Next: Permanent eyeliner!! I highly recommend Dr. Reed, who is very kind, down to earth, a true professional, and now a friend. :) Karrie D. read more

Where do you start when you're over the top thrilled with the quality of services provided? I had permanent eyeliner and eyebrows applied by Dr. Reed a couple of years ago and she is an incredibly professional and talented expert. A single tattoo on your arm is one thing -- if it isn't quite what you want you can always cover it up, but permanent make-up applied close to your face or to your precious eyes, is quite another! You want it perfect, and that's what you get. Truly. Dr. Reed is not only a medical doctor who practices proper care/safety protocols, but she's also an exceptional artist. She takes the time to thoroughly explain the process, guides you in selecting the proper shaping and colors, and then ensures the process is done with minimal discomfort. I recently returned for another procedure and we had a great time and I'm once again thrilled with the results -- and btw, so is my husband. I can't recommend Dr. Reed highly enough. read more

Dr. Reed provides exceptional service. I have researched several permanent cosmetic artists; however, Dr. Reed is the only artist I have found, who is also a licensed optometrist and; therefore, is your safest bet. Her work is beautiful and I will continue to visit her for future applications. My eyebrows look extremely natural and my permanent eyeliner looks sexy and saves me a considerable amount of time in the morning. For the first time in my life I have received compliments for my eyebrows and my eyeliner. I encourage all women to visit this wonderful doctor as you will leave extremely pleased! :) read more

I found Artistic Cosmetic Solutions while searching for permanent eyebrow correction. I had my eyebrows done in San Diego at a HORRIBLE place that totally messed them up. Dr. Reed is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! She definitely knows what she is doing. I had my eyebrows done by her and she did a great job at creating a new shape and correcting the previous person's mistakes. I love love love my eyebrows. :) read more

Dr Reed is a true artist. I had my eyeliner done, top and bottom, as well as eyelash enhancement, and it is better than I could have imagined. She spent a lot of time with me beforehand, which gave us both a clear idea on what I wanted, and what could be accomplished. Very professional as well a personable. My permanent makeup looks amazing without being overdone or under done. You definitely get what you pay for, and I would hate to have regrets on something as permanent as this. I would give her 10 stars if I could! read more

January 9, 2014 Dear Artistic Cosmetic Solutions, Needed to setup an consultation appointment with Dr. Reed, the receptionist told me she had other calls coming in that were from doctors that she needed to take care of them by answering the incoming calls. She proceeded to get my name & contact number I waited for over an hour to get a call back. Very poor service over the phone as a potential customer & felt like Artistic Cosmentic Solutions cared less about getting my business. I plan on finding someone else for my medical tattooing services. Angela W. read more

If I could give more stars I would, she couldn't have done my eyebrows any better, and I couldn't be more pleased. I have makeup artists always doing my makeup and saying how perfect my eyebrows are and they never guess I had them done until I tell them!! I've had nothing but compliments since having them done, and I have very fair skin, blonde hair and blue eyes, so you think it would be somewhat noticeable, but she did amazing. Thank you Dr. Laura!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Can I please be the 4th person to give ACS a 5 star rating ! I did research before deciding on Dr. Laura Read to perform her magic on my face. It has been a little more than a day since I bought myself some much needed beautiful sexy permanent eyebrows. Some of you out there are lucky enough to have them naturally. Well, lucky you. Mine had become thin or sparse would be the common term . Not anymore!! I am loving them already. Dr. Laura is very precise in what she does. Her before and after photos are amazing make overs. She spent a lot of time with me. We went over colors, shape, style. She loves what she does! I was not nervous and it did not hurt at all. I even fell asleep. Dr. Laura Read knows exactly what she is doing and how to do it with the soul of an artist. Her office is clean clean clean. I am going back for eyeliner as well. As a professional she takes precautions and wants YOU to be happy with the finished product. After all , it's my face!! read more

After years of hesitation, I finally had my brows done permanenetly at Artistic Cosmetic Solutions. Dr. Reed is amazing, I'm just bummed I waited until my thirties to find her!! She is a true perfectionist and a complete professional. She cares so much about the client and her work. I am beyond satisfied with my results. I LOVE MY EYEBROWS!!

I went to Dr. Reed to have my eyebrows tattooed and I'm so glad that I choose her. She's very nice and made me feel right at home. I was nervous at first, but she answered all of my questions and explained the process thoroughly. Her office is very clean and everything she uses is sterile. What surprised me was that the tattooing itself only took about an hour. The majority of the appointment was spent designing my brows and choosing the best color. She's an excellent artist and designed the perfect shape for my face and helped me to choose the right color for my skin tone. The best part was the fact that there was very little pain. All I felt was the vibration of the tattoo machine and a few scratches in places where the numbing ointment was wearing off (at which point she would immediately apply more ointment). There was soreness afterwards, but that's to be expected, so just make sure you take Tylenol or ibuprofen afterwards and you'll be fine. I highly recommend her for anyone who's interested in any type of permanent makeup. read more

I found Dr. Laura Reed after doing thorough research in both the OC and LA area and was very lucky to find her through the internet. She is very thorough and detailed in her consultation and actual procedure of permanent eyebrows. She made sure she made things as painless as possible because of Dr. Reed's experience and medical background. She took her time to draw on the actual eyebrows to make sure it suited my face shape and did not use stencils like other places. Because of her artistry, she was able to create beautiful and natural eyebrows and I have received so many compliments on it. She is patient, very personable and most of all, very skilled in her craft. Her office is also super clean and very sterilized. I've already had my eyebrows and eyeliner done and will be referring anyone interested in permanent makeup to her. She is awesome!!! read more

I've had an eye condition for about 10 years so could no longer wear eye makeup. I had Dr. Laura Reed do top and bottom eye liner and I am so happy with it. This was completed 20 days ago and I am back to loving my eyes again. She was familiar with my eye condition and explained everything very well. Very professional and the cleanest office you will every find. I felt so comfortable with her and trusted in her even thou I was nervous getting this done. I researched for several months before making the appointment. I felt that this is my face getting permanent eyeliner put on, so I want the best there is. Dr. Laura Reed is the best and she is so AWESOME! Thank you Dr. Laura for an amazing job! You do beautiful work and I can't say enough good about you. read more

I had my eyeliner done about 5 months ago with Dr Laura and the experience was wonderful! Her professionalism and expertise was very reassuring and I was thrilled with the finished product. I had my eyeliner first done about 8 years ago and was happy with that experience, but Dr Laura topped that. Her pricing and the personal attention made for a very satisfied customer. Thank you Dr Laura! read more

Dr Laura did a fantastic job on my eyeliner and lips. At my age, I didnt have much natural color left in my lips. Now I do. Beautiful job Dr Laura. Mostly, thank you! read more

It's been 8 yrs since I've had my eyebrows done and I was looking for someone to do them again. I researched/consulted alot of different places an came across Dr. Reed. During my consultation with her she made me feel comfortable an was thorough with how the procedure would be done. She gave her professional opinion on what she thought would look good and listened to my thoughts an opinions. I am very perticular with my eyebrows an I felt that Dr. Reed would be able to give me the results I was looking for. I just finished my touch up appt an I couldn't be happier! She put in a lot of time an effort to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. She is professional, her facility is clean and sterile and she makes you feel comfortable before and during the procedure. For those of you scared that it will hurt, I can tell you it's not painful.

Dr. Laura is the Absolute BEST in the permanent make-up business! I love my eyebrows. If you are looking for, or are interested in permanent make-up, or color refresh then, Artistic Cosmetic Solutions is the place to go. I was recommended to Dr. Laura in 2008, after patronizing a permanent make-up business who tattooed the worst ever permanent eyebrows on my face. The ink and color were incorrect, one eyebrow was higher than the other, and as the tattoo ink began to fade my eyebrow color turned purple/pink. It was a nightmare, and clearly visible since it was on my face. Others tried to correct it, only making them worse. Don't make this mistake - Make your first permanent make-up appointment with Dr. Laura, at Artistic Cosmetic Solutions. You will not be disappointed. Anyone can advertise permanent make-up services since this area is still loosely controlled; however, Dr. Laura has trained many years to perfect the natural look, she carefully listens, measures to ensure natural placement, takes the time necessary to work with you, and will help you select the colors and style that is right for you. Plus, the ink used is specifically designed for permanent make-up, and not body tattooing. Boise is lucky to have her. I look forward to my color refresh visit because I know that I'm going to look great when I leave her office. I now live in Europe; however, I will fly to see Dr. Laura, before going anywhere else. I highly recommend her. read more
