DeDe does a super job of giving me natural looking arch and overall shape to my normally straight bushy brows. She is precise, skilled and quick! I've just come to see her for the first time in 15 months due to pandemic restrictions. SO glad they made it through! I feel like i got a face lift and look slimmer in the face. Thank you! read more

See all

Anna Lee and staff are the greatest. Your eyebrows will be perfected and the threading will be painless. No more horrible hair. I love my eyebrows and thank Anna for my excellent new look. The very best read more

I had a great experience at Blink! Anna was so thorough and really took the time to assess and shape my brows. I hadn't gotten my eyebrows professionally done in years, and this experience convinced me- I will be back regularly. They followed all safety protocols for COVID and it felt like a very safe experience. Would definitely recommend! read more

DO NOT let anyone else touch your brows EXCEPT Anna Lee or one of her girls @ Blink Eyebrows & Cosmetics. I'm warning you. DON'T. JUST DON'T. #bestbrowsinsf #browsonfleek read more

I have been going to Blink for the past 2 years and I have to say that these ladies are truly Goddesses of eyebrows. They only tweeze and thread; no waxing. They happen to be the only place I could find that lightens eyebrows; which is very useful if you want to dye your hair a lighter shade and your eyebrows are left being too dark. They do not wax because it is not as precise. You will never leave with an unnaturally thin brow. I once went to LaBelle and left with a totally different shape and it was the thinnest I had ever had. I used to go to Claudia but she has left. Today I just got a makeup lesson from Anna (who is the owner) it was 2 hours long and extremely detailed. She showed me ways to use concealer that I have never heard of before. I bought a few of their products such as an intense vitamin c treatment for lips and a primer for the eyes. However, they ask you to bring in your own makeup kit and work with what you have so you don't feel pressured to buy a bunch of products. Anna has been doing makeup for over 20 years and is a true talent. read more

My Adventure With Eyelash Extensions Do Not get them Wet You should wear Goggles in the shower or when you wash your face. Do not sleep on your side because you'll push them in towards your face. Never use oils around your eyes to remove eye makeup Oh and never curl or use mascara on them. She told me all of this AFTER I had them put on ! I went in on a Saturday and observing all the rules...I had about ten left the following Saturday. So if you have money to burn and are ready for the hassle of a lifetime then be my guest . This is the problem . Although an excellent idea the eyelash adhesive used must be safe to use around the eyes. The current glue is safe but just isn't strong enough to hold these lashes on for very long. Now I'm sure they would love to use stronger adhesives but it wouldn't be approved for use in the eye area. The FDA can't have someones eyes glued shut, however, then they would have lashes that would last a very long time ! Tricky... As Bridget Jones said about wearing either the sexy lacy panties or the girdle that would make her look two sizes smaller designed for grannies the world over...Very tricky . And I don't even want to tell you what I paid because you would absolutely think I was a complete fool. Just call them, they'll tell you. I just thought of a great party game. Our friends have to apply eyelashes to each other. Male or Female. In the end I'm sure everyone would be hysterical and drunk. They'll figure out the glue situation someday and until then don't be stupid and waste money like I did. BTW , This salon is extremely high end with very proffesional Estheticians who expertly perform many other services as I observed during the time I was there. This review is strictly for Eyelash Extensions. read more

If you don't know what the hell to do with your brows, go here. I, like Tanya Z., have an eyebrow fixation. I own an eyebrow grooming kit. That I put together myself. I am constantly plucking and trimming my eyebrows to eyebrow perfection. So, imagine the pain and torture it must have been for me to decide that it's time for an eyebrow revamp. Meaning.. leaving these brows alone for a good two months in order for them to be miraculously reshaped to to-die-for gorgeousness (I hoped) from Blink. Oh, the insanity. You have to book in advance to go to this place but that probably helped soothe my tortured (eyebrow-growing) soul with whispering to myself, "Three more weeks..," then, "okay, two more weeks..," then, "two more days...." It gave me something to look forward to and to make me sit on my twitching wannabe eyebrow-tweezing hands. Yes, I know this is sad. Just keep reading. Enter Batool. She is an eyebrow fanatic, just like me (well, duh, she works there) and was pleased that, yes, I even own a special pair of scissors for trimming. I loved Batool in that she is pro-eyebrows of any shape. Meaning: just because it's in to have pencil-thin eyebrows, that doesn't mean she'll put that on your face if it doesn't fit you. Knowing that I am in love with brows, she said she was curious to see how I'd feel about the shape she was giving me. I. Loved. It. Am planning to go back soon, since I have let my eyebrows go enough that I need to have them reshaped. (Don't judge me!!) It's a bit pricy since I'm used to waxing (they tweeze, not wax), but it's worth the time and money to get them shaped here and do the upkeep yourself. read more

I came here for my initial brow shaping approximately one year ago. I have been coming religiously since then. Every 4 weeks. Have not skipped one yet. Kia is the "Princess" of eyebrows. I've seen her from the very beginning of my relationship with Blink. Just sit back and relax as Kia meticulously shapes your eyebrows one hair at a time. Besides all things brow including maintenance and tinting, Kia is skilled at threading as well as makeup application. The right eyebrow shape for you face is a non-invasive alternative to a facelift! I'm not kidding. While you're there, check out Lilash. Let me tell you what Lilash does and how I learned of it below. Two months ago: Me: Kia, your lashes are sooooo long and beautiful. Are they fake? Kia: Nope, they're all mine. Me: Really? (My face says "you're lying") Kia: I grow them. You can have them too if you grow yours. Me: Grow them? Kia: I use a lash grower called Lilash. We sell them here. Fast forward two months and believe me when I tell you. My lashes grew! My girlfriends have all noticed a "long" difference in my lashes. I can actually see the "length" of my lashes in photos! Well worth the money spent. A tube will last you 6-8 months! Make an appointment with Kia. NOW. You will not regret it. read more

Pros: Exceptionally skilled and friendly staff...trained to do anything related to beautifying your eyes and face....lashes, brows, make up application. Central Union Square location and very cool laid back atmosphere. Cons: So incredibly talented that they have a large and devoted clientele base...which means that you have to book your appointment *weeks* in advance....but totally worth the wait. Update: One year later and I still totally love Blink. Tracy is my eyebrow guru, and I make (and keep) my monthly appointments religiously. The Blink chicks rock! read more

IMHO, Anna is the best eyebrow artist in San Francisco ! I won't let anyone else touch them, not even myself. She is usually booked solid. Don't fret, her colleagues: Elaine, Rocky and Sarah are just as talented! read more

DEDE IS INCREDIBLE! I love my brows. Thank you SO much, you incredible human! I was so uptight and nervous, and she was ridiculously patient with me lol. Can't wait to go back for a maintenance appointment! read more

I made an appointment with Tracy based on all the great reviews on yelp. I was very happy with my brows. I've had other people do my brows before as well and was equally happy with them too. The only negative thing I would say about Tracy is that she brushed my one eyebrow so hard and so much that it turned completely red and burned for a few hours after the appointment. Being the tough girl that I am, I didn't say anything at first, but it got so bad I had to say something. I have never had this experience with another brow stylist before. After I mentioned it to her though, she was much gentler on the other eye brow and I was fine. +5 stars for nice brows -2 for putting my left brow in pain +1 for taking my feedback and not killing me on my right brow. Thanks Tracy! read more

Blink received the "Best Brow Sculpting" in an ad "The Very Best of San Francisco 2006," per 7X7 Magazine - June 2006. That is how I found Blink and Anna Lee (Owner) does excellent work. After my first couple of visits, I met Tracy Chavez-Naimi who did wonders and made me more handsome than I was before (LOL). Lets just say, I've been very loyal to Tracy for almost 3 years. Tracy is no longer with Blink and was fortunate to open up her own business (Eye Candy SF) which is on the 15th floor in the same building. If you are a client of hers and need to get in touch, you can reach her at 415.756.1177. Otherwise, if you are seeking a botique to have your eyebrows look amazing, give Blink a shot. You will not regret it. read more

I met Anna Lee at a party at Kyo-ya. Down to earth and stylish, her focus on brow shaping and makeup application intrigued me. I scheduled an appointment and am very happy I did. Her cozy salon reminds me of one you'd find in NYC. Her talent is sought after by a growing following of both women and men and I was lucky to get an appointment within a 2 week time frame. Anna takes her career seriously, and is very focused on brow shaping and maintenance. Just as I'd expect my mechanic to be 'into' cars, and a chef 'into' food, Anna is 'into' brows and her passion makes the rest of us presentable and gorgeous. Anna shared that she has experience as a makeup artist and a visual artist and has found a niche that is rewarding. Blink is one of the best kept secrets since Yelp. I featured Blink Salon in December at one of my men-only events and the guys enjoyed getting their brows done. See some action-shots (tweezing) photos on: http://www.clothingswap.org/MensSwap11-28-96.htm read more

First of all, the vibes in this place are great. My appointment was for an overhaul of the eyebrows, very dicey because I don't have very much eyebrow to work with. I was soon to find out that the technical name for my eyebrow problem was "weak tails" I met with Tracy. What a very very nice gal Tracy is. She has a healthy appreciation for the beauty of trees and grew up in a small town, so of course I liked her right away. She explained quite a few things to me about brows that i won't repeat here in order to not expose her trade secrets but suffice it to say: My brows look better than they ever have before. Tracy did a great job and considering what she had to work with, it could almost be called artistry. This place is GREAT. read more

Everyone sucks at something. Even little piggies! ( ' (oo) ' ) yes, it's true. shocking, I know . . . shhhhh, don't tell anyone, ok? it could ruin my Perfect Piggy reputation!! (^(oo)^)v this little piggy cannot tweeze eyebrows to save her life. thank goodness she has the nice ladies at Blink to do them instead! for those who have had traumatic brow-shaping experiences in which you ended up angry, brow-less, and trying to explain to the so-called "makeup artist" that "nonexistent" is not a shape, fear not! they ONLY do eyebrows and lashes at Blink, and they actually ask questions during the consultation about whether you use a brow pencil every day, how often you wear makeup, etc. and shape accordingly this little piggy always leaves looking slightly more alert and bright-eyed, and also far more symmetrical than when she used the DIY strategy! minus one star for being too popular, as it's difficult to get a reservation unless you're booking about a week or more in advance . . . . piggy approved!

It's $45 for initial sculpting and $35 for maintenance. You won't be sorry! read more

Blink Eyebrows & Cosmetics - Blink! - Makeup Artists Near Me - San Francisco, California

Okay, so I never would have considered paying this kind of money to get my eyebrows done, but it was worth it for my wedding. I had an appointment with Kia, who is totally delightful and explained her vision for my eyebrows very clearly. My only complaint (and the reason for the deducted star) is that they say the expensive price ($45) is for 45 minutes--my session was MAYBE 25-30 minutes. If you're going to quote your prices around a certain amount of time, stick to the time. Otherwise, people end up feeling kind of ripped off. read more

Yelp helps me once again. Six months ago, I was looking for a place to get my eyebrows done. I went to Yelp, found Blink, and made an appointment with Batool. My first visit, she plucked me, trimmed me, told me where to grow, showed me what to fill in, and how to do it. Within the first few visits, my eyebrows grew. She plucked, trimmed, shaped, and instructed, and every time my eyebrows looked better and better. Six months later I am extremely happy with the way my eyebrows look. I still go every five weeks for maintenance, but feel Batool's work and instructions have completely changed my look and made it ten times easier to do my makeup. If you've ever over-tweezed, over-cut, or overwaxed, or if it's been a while since you've gotten your eyebrows shaped, Blink is worth a visit. read more

Elaine is very detailed. She asked me about my previous experience about waxing. I been waxing my eyebrows since the late 90's. I told her that it has been 3 years I haven't got my eyebrows done professionally. She asked me my ideal brow shape or if I like it arched. I explain to her that I used to have my eyebrows arched. But, now I want it slightly arched and not too thin. Typically "Asian" eyebrow. Wtheck I mean by that? A brow that look more natural and not too dramatic. She also informed me that they do not wax and the reason why because many have very sensitive skin which causes irritation, redness, and bumps. I was willingly to try something new. Threading and tweezing. Every piece of hair pulled out one by one. Shaping and trimming. I believe she told me before hand so I know what to expect. She also thin one side of my brow to make it look more even with my other side of eyebrow (which have bald spot). Elaine is very gentle. It did not hurt one bit compare to waxing which sting. She recommend a brow growing serum. I was kinda skeptical because for the past 4 years I've been trying to grow my brows back but, no luck. She said, 90% show signs of growth within 2 months. So, I bought it to give it a try. She also found a color pencil brow to match with my freshly colored red hair. I didn't want to use more new product yet. So, probably get it next time. Once everything was complete. My brows look so amazingly good. I didn't think it'll come or this nice! Elaine told me one stand of hair can make a big difference on how your eyebrow look. Which I agree. The one stand of hair that bothered her. She's a perfectionist and want you to be satisfied with the brow she shaped. I'm very happy with the outcomes. She really listen to what I really want. She also have an idea how to shape it to my liking. Asking me how is the eyebrow coming to. To make I more perfect I told her I didn't want my brows too sharp and she soften it up for me. She's very good with what she do. THANK YOU ELAINE. read more

I am Croatian. That means a thick mono brow that tormented me through my youth. In high school, i plucked my brows to half their size (lengthwise--yes), and then went through a Benefit waxing stage which was always a disaster, leaving them pencil thin. For the past 4 years or so I have been plucking my brows on my own, terrified to let anyone go near them, lest they wax half of them off (I have since embraced my bushy brows). My roommate went to Blink a couple of months ago and raved about them. I hesitated. But then one day a couple of weeks ago, i was looking in the mirror, and realized that they were totally asymmetrical, and out of control, and then i decided that i was ready to reach out. So I called Blink. I scheduled an appointment with Claudia. She was AWESOME. She measured my brows with precision, tweezed only, and told me where i should grow out, tweeze, etc. It was amazing. She also encouraged growth in parts for "character," and she wasn't into perfect brows because they lacked some character. I am in love. I left feeling like a brow goddess, partially because the girls oohed and awed over the thick brows that i hated as a teen. I am giving 4 stars for now because i had some tweezing nics and lots of redness and needed to use cover up for my under brows for a couple of days, but besides that, i am telling you, it was shear perfection. read more

I really like this place because they are essentially dedicated to 1 craft: shaping brows. You never appreciate really skillfully done brows until you get them mangled by someone. That's happened to me plenty of times! So I think Blink is pretty awesome. A huge plus is the fact that just about everyone who works here seems to be on the same "level". What I mean is, no matter who you end up with, you will get a certain level of skill. My schedule is so hectic, I often have to call to see if Blink can squeeze me in the same day or next (basically, I'm chasing cancellations). So I've had 3 different people so far, Claudia, Kia (or Tia), and Tracy. They all really knew what they were doing, and were very attentive. I have been happy with the results after each appointment. Another plus is the fact that they do not wax. They pluck and trim, which takes more time, but I think is more precise. If you need parking, the Sutter garage is only a few blocks away. I guess the con is it's on the pricer end ($45 for initial, $35 for maintenance), but I think good brows are worth it. Another con is that it is allegedly hard to get an appointment. Well, if you are a follower of one person, maybe, but if you are okay with anyone, it's not that hard. read more

I am always happy with how Blink shape my brows. I never have to worry as they always take their time with each client. I have been coming to Blink for more years and wouldn't trust my brow with anyone else. read more

I just had an eyebrow appointment here with Kia and I loved it! She's super thorough and an issue all other eyebrow stylists brought up did not cause an issue for her at all. She is clearly very skilled and knows what she's doing. I've never paid $50 for an eyebrow appointment but I thought it was well worth it, especially since in the past these activities have always been hit or miss for me. I normally just wait until my eyebrows grow completely out so I figured, any form of shaping, even mediocre is better than nothing =P Now that I've found blink, I'm thinking that won't be a problem anymore! Kia is also super easy to talk to and really easy to connect with. She taught me how to draw into my eyebrows. I use to always fail at this activity. I love it! The only issue is that this place is pretty fully booked so you might want to book a little while in advance if you have a time and date in mind. read more

I was so excited about this place after reading the reviews. So I grew out my brows for three months to give them a full eyebrow to work with. I forgot the name of the person who did my eyebrows, but she thought really full brows were more youthful looking. So she barely did anything to my brows. Long story short, I ended up paying a lot of money to walk out of there with Groucho Marx eyebrows :o( read more

So I've been seeing Claudia here for about a year. She is awesome and my eyebrows have never looked better. I was dumb and inputted my appt into my phone late by 30 minutes so I missed Claudia today(SORRY Claudia). I was panicking because I leave for vacation on Saturday. Anna was awesome enough to squeeze me in and even gave me an amazing cookie. Don't go anywhere else for your eyebrows. read more

Best customer service I have ever received from an eyebrow service! I cannot begin to recommend Rocky enough. I had been growing out my brows for about 6 weeks when I came into my appointment. Rocky greeted me and began to get straight to work. She began by assessing my eyebrows, explained what she wants improved on and what she could do for me in this appointment. This made me very comfortable so I wouldn't walk out with any surprises. We've all been there! She was so generous with her time and extremely meticulous, taking steps back to double check, and handing me the mirror to make sure I was okay with keeping certain brows. As someone who works in clients for a living as well, this was very much appreciated! She took just about an hour or so to complete my appointment, and I was thrilled! Having never tried threading before, I was pleased with the outcome and how clean everything looked. She completed my look with a light application of brow pencil. Thank you for getting my brows on the right track to being themselves again! read more

I came here to get my (virgin) brows plucked into shape. Batool was very nice and worked with me and my brow shape, taking up completely the 45 minutes alloted for a first time appointment. She would frequently step back for feedback. She worked with my brows, instead of shaping them into some preconcieved notion that she may have had of a universally perfect brow shape. I really appreciated it. Unfortunately, I don't like going into the city, and won't do it on a basis frequently enough to do upkeep here. But, if you live or work here, I'd say go for it! read more

I made my way to Blink after having a scary waxing experience at another San Francisco spa. Now 3 years later, I am excited to in every 4 weeks to see these wonderful ladies. Kia is meticulous with her eyebrow sculpting and always hits the right eyebrow tint to match my red locks. If you enjoy being pampered, appreciated, and beautified, Blink is your place! read more

I love Sarah. She is the best of the best! I have a difficult work schedule, but she always seems to accommodate me early in the morning. She's is so sweet, honest, and most importantly, a great brow stylist! read more

I was so excited to hear that Sara has returned to Blink. Sara is absolutely amazing with brows and make up. I'm asian and have a hard time getting my make up done for special events. Sara has a lot of experience working on asian faces. She also gave me a make up lesson which made a huge difference. After the make up lesson, random people (cashiers at store, waitress/hostess at dinner, etc) started telling me I have beautiful eyes. Honestly, I never received compliments on my eyes for the first 30 years of my life. If you want to look your best, visit Sara. Anna is also great. I have stick straight asian lashes. I get eye lash perms from her. This is perfect if you are going on a beach vacation. You can have curly lashes even after playing in the water. Anna's an absolute perfectionist and my lashes always turn out perfect. read more

After I moved here, I was looking for someone new to do my eyebrows. For me, this is always a hard task since my eyebrows are a bit tough. I was seeing the last lady for over ten years but when I moved, I was forced to see someone else. I read the yelp reviews about Blink eyebrows and read about Kia a lot so I thought I would try her. I have to say the reviews did not disappoint. Kia is awesome! In fact, the entire staff I have dealt with are very kind. But, back to Kia and her awesome eyebrow abilities for now... I went in with a huge mess for eyebrows. After the move, I saw someone that ruined them for me and the growth of my eyebrow hair was incredibly slow. My eyebrows were growing out so they were not in good shape. I had some gaps and pretty much no shape. I went to see Kia and she was very patient with me. She listened to everything I had to say and talked it out with me. After my eyebrows were done, I was so pleasantly surprised. Kia was able to create a bit of a shape to my unmanageable eyebrows while leaving all the necessary hair there to continue to grow. I have been seeing her for about six months (or more now) and my eyebrows have been improving ever since. I truly believe if you go see Kia you will not be disappointed. However, I will say I have seen other people's eyebrows that leave blink and all the people I have seen look fabulous, so if you feel someone else may be a better fit I am sure they will be good too. For me, Kia is amazing! The one thing I will say is that it is pricey to get your brows done here. $50 for the first shaping and $40 for each subsequent appointment. However, I have had trouble finding someone really good so now that I have found her, I am not going anywhere else. read more

Having tried most of the highly rated brow places in the city, I can't believe I missed Blink. That said, this was the 2nd most expensive brow job. $50 + tip. Claudia reminded me of Angelina Jolie so it was unnerving when she stared at me. Since I was hugely intimidated, small talk was awkward. (I'm not worthy!) She did spend close to 45 min on my brows- tweezing, trimming, even threading. So, I don't feel ripped off or anything. Brows look ok (maybe a bit too thin & too arched... might just be a personal preference thing.) But not sure if they're totally worth the money... when I pay more, I expect more. They weren't quite even, & when I came home, I noticed some small semi-ingrown hairs I had to clean up. Plus her tweezing hurt! Also not a fan of that salon environment. Everyone was getting worked on in a large room while sitting. Prefer a more intimate & relaxed setting. Oh yeah, & the music was dreadful too. Felt like I was partying in the Marina. read more

I saw Tracy today, she was fabulous and friendly. She made me feel and look so pretty. I (like most other women) feel like my brows are crooked or don't arch were they should or could look better than what they do. Which is why I called Blink. I give Tracy 5 stars and the ambiance 3-4(it felt a little cold design wise), and the price of the brow pencil I bought was a little high ($21) so 3 for that. I do love the fact that Tracy 'taught' me what and where to pluck and when and where not to. She showed me which side I should make straighter and which side I should arch up to make my brows perfect and lovely! I have another appointment in 6 weeks and will update again. read more

I was so amazed after coming here. My eyebrows are naturally quite thin and so was always reluctant about getting them done and wasting my money. Tracy however, showed me that there was plenty that could be done and I could not believe the difference. She spent at least 45 mins and was such a warm chatty person, she gave me loads of tips for maintaining them. Due to the price I wouldn't get this done regularly, but next time I want them done, I will definately be back. (Update: Tracy is no longer with blink but has set up 2 floors above, 'Eye Candy') read more

I am not a high maintenance gal (stop laughing!) when you compare me to others. I don't get manicures or pedicures because I'm pretty good at doing that on my own. I'm not hairy so no waxing. Of course my hair has to be cut somewhere so that's a given. And up until a couple of days ago, I had never had my brows shaped. I have decent looking brows and I keep them in check nicely but I had never considered doing anything else to them. Then my birthday happened and my wonderful coworker gave me an appointment with Tracy. I really, really liked it! The building it's located in is an old school SF type, gorgeous architectural detailing throughout. The elevators are a trip because it's basically a gilded cage that slides up and down very quickly. You see the wall of the elevator shaft glide by. The space that Blink is in is small but it suits them. Nearly everything is white but it still manages to be cozy feeling. There are 4 chairs on one side and the waiting area consists of 2 wide chairs. The receptionists were friendly and the overall vibe of the place was festive in that chatty salon way. Tracy was great! She's funny and chatty and a little crazy too. But it's the good kind of crazy. She did an amazing job on my brows. She evened them out and trimmed them and now I look so polished and chic. Kind of grown up or something. She talked to me about filling in and I confessed that I hardly ever did that because I have a habit of touching my eyebrows throughout the day. And that I only realized when I would fill in my my brows and find makeup on my fingers, not to mention the smudges around my eyes. We both laughed about that. I asked her about eyelash extensions and she was totally truthful about how super high maintenance they were. They last a long time and look good(at that price they should) but it means that you should not get them wet. Showering with goggles is not my idea of fun. I would definitely come here to get my brows done again. read more

I discovered Blink a couple of years ago, and have never given a thought to letting anyone else touch my eyebrows. This city was ripe for a studio dedicated to brows and lashes, with great additional services, such as threading (I hear great things about their makeup, as well). I was having my brows maintained by Anita regularly until she moved to LA, and have since seen Anna and Tracy. Having seen the work being done here for two years now, I would trust my brows to any of the specialists at Blink. read more

I had my appt. with Tracy. She was about 15 min. late, but was constantly apologizing for it, so I forgave her. I had waited about 2 weeks before I could get in, so you can imagine what my brows looked like. There were many a day where I thought, "hey, it'll grow back soon enough. I'll just clean them up." But then what would the appt. be for. From the very beginning, Tracy told me what she was doing step by step. As a person who will maintain my own brows, it was really helpful and appreciated to know what she was doing. Granted, I won't be trimming my own brows, for fear of cutting a hole in them, but I now know my line to follow. She painstakingly trimmed my brows, brushed them out, then trimmed them again. Then she went, pretty much, one by one and cut each hair individually. Gotta give her extra points for dedication. At the end, she even offered to put sunscreen on my face since I was going to the Giants game that afternoon. That's definitely worth 1 star all by itself. I definitely recommend this place. It's a little tough to find, but well worth the effort. read more

Yelpers, you never fail me. When I walked into this place, I was a bit startled. It's definitely not as posh as my usual spa (though just as expensive) and looked like a bunch of makeup artists crammed into a tiny room working on people sitting close together in chairs. Which, essentially, is what it is. I would possibly have bolted had I not read the reviews here telling me it would all be worth it. And it was. Tracy gave me gorgeous, full, shapely brows that need almost no pencil to look fabulous. She's also a fun girl and a good conversationalist. My eyebrow search has ended successfully. I will be going back soon. Way, way better work than any of the other places I tried, and no waxing either. Highly recommended. read more

While I am very OCD about my eyebrows (thanks to all those years of Mommie-Dearest-like attention to them from my own mother...thanks mom!) that obsession can sometimes manifest itself in OVERPLUCKING. So I heard about Blink, and since they focus on eyebrows, I thought this was the place to get help. Batool got me shaped up and told me never to pluck my eyebrows again. And I have listened, and am all the much happier, although my OCD has had to refocus on other things... Batool is great, and I'm always much happier (and prettier) when I leave the salon. And I love that they only tweeze or do threading and don't pour hot wax on your delicate eyelids - ouch! read more
