Lash lift
Nikki N.

First time trying Saiko for lash lift and I love it!!! She did amazing on my lashes - the best that anyone has ever done on me. Highly would book her again and recommend her. Great communication, great service and very affordable pricing!!

I found Atelier Saiko on Yelp for lash perm / lash lift and I love it so much!! I like that I'm supporting an independent business and Saiko is so nice and cares a lot about her clients' experiences. She will change out her lash perm products depending on your hair texture and fragility, and will keep in mind if you have sensitive skin. Initially it was hard to get a weekend appointment because people book so far in advance. I have been going for a few months and love getting my lashes permed. She charges such a reasonable price ($50) and takes weekend appointments. I was going every 6 weeks but I think I actually prefer the look when most of my lashes are straight after 7 weeks. This timing will depend on your hair follicle cycles. It's on the 3rd floor of the Sawtelle Place. Parking is free for the businesses in the complex. I highly recommend for lash perm! Her price is unbeatable for west LA

I was wandering around one salon to another desperately until I found my beautiful savior Saiko-san. I was and still am the regular here for my eyelash perm treatment, in which she is well-known for, but one day I decided to have my hair colored done by her as well. And I am truly glad that I did!! I had been having hard time coloring my hair for the past few years because of my hateful gray hairs, but Saiko has saved me!! She colors my hair the way I wanted. Until her, I always had dark hair color since most hairdressers put importance on covering the grays. But I didn't really like having the dark hair because it makes me look older (when I already feel old...) Saiko reaches out her delicate hands to rescue me from dreadful aging stress. Arigato- Saiko-san :)

Red, swelling

I'm first time customer, also first time doing lash perm. Saw good reviews here and booked the appointment and had a high hope. The lady Saiko is very serious, no smile at all, quickly did the service without a single word, then said wait 22 mins not open your eyes, then she quickly went to the inside room, leave me there and then no talking to me at all. I feel I have been treated like an no life plant or object. When I was laying on the bed, I couldn't believe such awful service from a Japanese store. In the end, I didn't leave tips on purpose so she asked me do I want to pay tips with cash. I have no cash and I explained why I don't want to pay tip. Then she forced me to pay tips and said, I never saw customer not paying tip. So I ended up paid 15% tip with credit card. But will NEVER come back!!!!! In addition, the right eye inner eyelid got red, swelling and irritated. Left eye is okay. I asked her and she said it's glue. Now a hour after the service, still feel irritating on the right eye.!!

My favorite new discovery in the Nijiya plaza on Sawtelle Blvd. (in Little Osaka). On the barely treaded 3rd floor, this quaint studio hosts 2 beds for eyelash perms, one sink/chair for hairwashing and a chair for makeup and hair. The staff consists of Saiko and her assistant, Eri. Basically, it's a personal and intimate salon where you can get big salon services. I used to go to Taka Hair Salon, where they charge you an arm and a leg for an eyelash perm. Decided there had to be a more reasonable and personal experience somewhere else, and I was right. Saiko was professional, efficient, detailed, and knowledgeable. She completed the service in about 45 minutes in a private room that was very comfortable. The bed had a nice leg bolster and blanket, and there was soothing music playing. So taking a nap during the service was like going to cloud 9. The end result was great. My eyelashes were very curled and she took great care in separating them for maximum effect. The only downside is my eyelashes are pretty thin, so separating them out made mine look even thinner. :( Oh well, no fault of Saiko's. The only thing that I noticed was that Saiko's assistant was not too familiar with their package deals. When I asked her about it after the treatment, she didn't really know what the discounts were. Maybe it was because they just started some new promotions. Not sure...

I got an eyelash perm at AtElieR Saiko. The price for getting an eyelash perm over here is the best and most affordable. Additionally, the whole process was calm and went by quickly, and the booking process was very easy too. I'm coming back here again because after doing the eyelash perm, I don't have to use an eyelash curler anymore, which makes me save time during my morning routine!

No more scary eyelash curler~

My lashes are naturally long but incredibly straight and won't keep a curl. I decided to get an eyelash perm from Saiko after seeing all the reviews on Yelp. I am absolutely in love with my eyelashes~ The experience itself was very pleasant! She asked me to lay down and I essentially took a nap while my eyelashes were getting curled. It didn't hurt at all but next time I'll probably bring my headphones to listen to some music or a book. The price wasn't terrible when I compared it to other establishments and parking wasn't an issue because she validates for the duration of your time. She told me that it will last 4-6 weeks so I will definitely be back then~!

RECOMMEND!!!!!! I went there on 2/5/18 My lashes is curl as ever happen before and I really like it. Saiko saids it work about 6 weeks but for me it still good on my 8 weeks. I will make an appointment again with my friends.

This is with They're Real Primer and Mascara from Benefit. No curling needed.
Desrie C.

I LOOOOVE my lashes.... so much, that I almost don't want to give a good review because I don't want Saiko getting booked up with appointments. I generally have long but very straight lashes. They can only keep a curl if I use a curler and VERY waterproof mascara. Otherwise, if I try any other mascara, my curl falls making my eyes look like a Venus flytrap. I was sad that I couldn't use all the popular mascaras that give huge lush lashes. Now, I can!! No more false lashes, no more expensive eyelash extensions, no more curling tools! Just mascara (maybe some primer) and I look beautitul, wide eyed, and awake! I'll admit, I was a little freaked out when I smelled the chemicals so close to my eyeballs. But I trusted her due to her experience. I'm glad I did and will probably buy a package the next time I'm there.

What a great experience and result! This was the first time I had ever had my eyelashes permed and I'm hooked. I got eyelash extension about a month ago for the first time and while the look was beautiful, I hated the feeling of them and ended up pulling them out. I realized after that it was a complete waste of money and I was better off wearing falsies. Well, after some beauty research and thanks to yelp I found AtElieR Saiko! Cheaper, no maintenance, no weight of extensions - I knew I had to try out a perm and this place had great reviews! So thankful I trusted Yelp! They did not disappoint. The process is so simple, put on the solution, wait 20 minutes, do it again, and then add a tint and you are done! All in all took about an hour. I was completely shocked with how well they turned out and super happy with how easy it was, even got a nice nap in since the place is so peaceful and relaxing. tl;dr: Great experience, friendly service, loved the result. 100% will be back.

How long does the perm last?

I'd say 4-6 weeks! Their work is amazing!

How long is the appointment for lash/lift? i have an appt already and trying to plan my other work depending on how long this takes. tried calling them when they were listed as open on yelp but no answer. thanks!

The appointment itself takes around 45 minutes. I would add a few minutes for parking and very slow elevators!

After a lash perm, can you wear mascara?

No, for 24hrs after the session, you can’t touch, get the lashes wet, or apply makeup on. After 24hrs, yes you can do makeup. :)

I am so grateful for Ami Desai! I had been researching South Asian makeup artists in Southern…read moreCalifornia a year before my wedding date. It was really important that I find one person who could do it all--hair, makeup for Indian skin, and "proper" dressing/pinning, as you never know what you'll get with a random "aunty" from your family. I did a trial with her for my engagement session, loved the work, and my professional photos came out great! I did something very simple and natural, and I didn't have any idea of what I wanted, so I told her to do whatever she thought would look nice on me. I was really impressed with her knowledge and technique. She has an amazing make-up spread as well! There is definitely a certain style I was looking for in my wedding look. I wanted to look like an Indian bride, but a lot of the Indian makeup artists out there are very heavy on the color and are into the "matchy-matchy" eyeshadows. I wanted to look more fresh and modern and wanted my make-up to complement my clothes, not compete with. I didn't even have to explain, because as soon as I started talking she finished my sentence. She knew exactly what I wanted from the get-go, and this is what I think sets her apart. Some of the other elite artists/companies out there, who I thought also suited my style (I ended up booking one of them because Ami wasn't available for one of my events) were really overpriced and/or had terrible customer service due to their no shortage of clientele. Like some of the other reviewers mention, Ami is very quick in responding to email/following up with you, being up front about costs, etc. She listens to you, and really makes every effort to accommodate her client's needs. Her price is competitive with other services out there, but you get exactly what you pay for--quality work and quality service. She had the added task of trying to conceal my puffy crying eyes on the day of (as I had some drama earlier in the day), but she did a great job and helped me ice my under eyes while she was setting my hair. Additionally, my community has a unique dupatta pinning style and with some pictures and the guidance of one of my friends, she was able to get it right on the first try. She also has some cool tricks to make the dupatta stay on your head! I highly recommend Makeup By Ami and follow her make-up blog as well! She really knows her stuff--you can tell from her own flawless style and make-up job! You won't be disappointed at all! Take it from me--a picky, perfectionist bride.

Ami Was a wonderful and beautiful make up artist ! I remember I was talking to my coordinators…read moreabout make and her name came up ! Then I had called her to see if she was available for my wedding , and had told me go on line fill the forms out and I'll get back to you. Which she totally did!
