4/5 stars for my brows. 5/5 stars for experience. Now that most of my scabbing has fallen off, I feel confident enough to give this experience the final rating. I decided to do nano blading as a gift to myself for my 40th birthday, and also because I was tired of filling in my eyebrows multiple times a day. I decided on brow expressions because after reviewing a couple other places, Cynthia was the most responsive and engaging. This was my first time doing semi permanent makeup and I was definitely worried I was making a huge mistake. However Cynthia was very patient when shaping my brows the way I wanted them, informative, and very pleasant during the while procedure. When I came in for my touch up a few weeks later we addressed the areas I wanted adjusted and that also went smoothly. There are a couple spots that could use a 3rd touch up but I think I'm happy with them just the same, hence 4/5. Thank you for a great first experience! read more

I feel taken advantage of. I was supposed to get a fine line tattoo for the first time. I was over charged and it was not done well at all. the tattoo was supposed to be shaded in and it's missing spots. I brought this up with vanessa who was my tattoo artist. She ignored me and my concerns. now I have a permanent tattoo ruined on my body. I'm so disappointed and now I'm out the money I put up for it and it wasn't a job well done. Highly disappointed in the customer service aspect as well. read more

Michelle B has made my eyebrows perfect, better than I expected. She was friendly, professional and does great work, highly recommended!

I loved my experience here. I went in to micro blade my eyebrows. Cynthia was so detailed in explaining what was going to be done. She made sure I was happy with everything before she got started. She was patient and made sure i was comfortable during the whole process. I was so happy with the results at the end. I highly recommend Brow Expressions! read more

Got my brows touched up by Michelle again. She's so gentle with her touch. Even when the numbing wore off, i could still barely feel it. She's so sweet too. Will forever recommend her read more

Michelle is a perfectionist! I feel like she really took time, was careful with finding the right shape and color for my fair hair and skin, and checked in with me frequently about whether I was liking what I saw and if I was comfortable (absolutely no discomfort). So far, my brows look amazing! Hopefully after they heal, I will be equally impressed. read more

I got my eyebrows done on April 27,21. My appointment was at 2:30 originally but Cynthia wrote it wrong on her notes and I waited on the sidewalk for half an hour. My anxiety wanted me to leave, "if she messed up on something so easy that was written down and she have you the time, she can mess up more". Shut up brain, I payed a non refundable deposit of $100, we are staying lol. Cynthia was very nice and she was training her assistant, I didn't know this at the time I booked the appointment. I didn't even know what the procedure entitled. All I knew it was that I was gonna love the results, lol (that is what everyone that got it told me, and if I look things on youtube, then I don't do them, lol). I got done my eyebrows (shading and blading) and my teeth whitened. Cynthia did an AMAZING job on my brows!!!! And got my teeth to their whitest (they were already a nice color but I never gotten them done so I wanted to do that). I am gonna be totally honest, she did an awesome job. I am not used to going to places without a receptionist (I used to be one at a spa, and I kept that place running so perfectly). I do not know the manners, how do you check in? How do they know in there? I didn't get a reminder the day before and I didn't have her number, just communicated via yelp lol. Wished I knew that my appointment was going to be half an hour late. Both treatments took 5 1/2 hours, don't know if that is normal or was it cause she was training someone while I was getting the treatment done. Personally, this treatment is more invasive that I thought. The noises during the procedure wanted me to get up an run. Cynthia was very awesome and was letting me know what to expect as she was doing it. I did let her know that I have anxiety (since I was a child, so I know how to hide it, I hope lol). The worst part for me was the aftercare. I did it perfectly but not again, lol, I can't sleep in my back for that long or barely wash my face. If you want to get this done, she is fantastic!!!! read more

I came to Brow Expressions Permanent Beauty all the way from Temecula to see Michelle. My sister had gotten her eyebrows done with her, and they looked amazing. I was super nervous because I am very picky about my eyebrows. My main goal was to keep them very natural looking, while making them look a little more clean. Well, I believe Michelle provided that. My brows look amazing. I can't wait to see how they evolve, especially the final product after the second touch up. Thank you Michelle, for my fresh new look. P.S The office was super cute, and very clean. I actually fell asleep during the procedure because it was so relaxing, There were plenty of rooms for different makeup artists. We were lucky, we had the whole place to ourselves, I feel like it's not normally like that. read more

My first time coming to this place and trying out nanoblading. I really wish i didn't spend 550 for my brows. I was not happy with my shape or that there was no difference after it faded. I did not want to spend any additional 200 something dollars on a follow up. I have actually done microblading and my person before did not charge me extra for follow up. I wish I would have done microblading instead. I will not go back to this place. read more

Michelle did my brows and it looks amazing. I spend time with her and explained what I want and she listened, understood what I was asking and did exactly that . It looks so natural and I am very happy . Thank you Michelle !! read more

both of the women who took care of my brows and eyeliner did an absolutely expert job. I don't see any mistakes, I don't have any pain or bleeding. I just walked there looking beautiful. read more

Highly recommend Vanessa for the perfect brows! Vanessa did the "Perfecting touch up" on my original blade and shade. During the procedure, she was constantly looking at my brows from different angles to ensure a symmetrical perfect shape. She added more hairstrokes that look so natural. My brows turned out way better than I ever expected. I always knew brows are the frame of the face but had no idea that the perfect eyebrow shape would transform my entire face, lifting my eye area, balancing/enhancing my features, giving me a more youthful appearance. I no longer look so tired. Thank you Vanessa!!! read more

I had my brows done today by Cynthia and I LOVE THEM! I was so nervous about it being a painful process, but I didn't feel even the smallest amount of discomfort. She uses a gel that numbs your skin a few times during the process! I was also really concerned to have permanent done that I would hate. But she shows you every step of the way as she maps your face and decides which color would be best. You can always have 100% input! I love my brows. It's only day one, so I understand there's a healing process. I can't wait to see how beautiful they look when they are all healed up. Also, I just want to state for the record that I'm almost 61 years old. So if you're a middle-ager like me don't be afraid! You'll love having brows again! I'm going to post photos, but with the caveat that I just got them. I'll add additional pix when they've healed up! Go see Cynthia you won't be sorry!! read more

I had super light/thinning brows and decided on the nano brow combo (nano brows with light shading). The nano brows look awesome, just like natural hairs, making your brows look naturally fuller. The shading added to it, giving you that "my brows are done up" look :) ... you can just wake up and go, and your brows are on point! If you're looking to get your brows done and done right, see Cynthia. She is an artista! Tell her what you're going for and put your trust in her hands. It'll come out way better than you expected read more

I really love my eyebrows, even more so, know that I got the touch up! They were to dark for me at 1st visit, but faded after a couple weeks, then at touch up Cynthia used a lighter color. I love the shape, and I don't have to draw them on anymore, which is awesome! Will definitely come back for all my touchups! Highly recommend Brow expressions, Cynthia is awesome! read more

Thank you Michelle! read more

OMG!! Cynthia is THE MAGICIAN OF BROWS! She is truly amazing! I have always had terrible eyebrows and had to tweeze and cut them and put makeup on to shape them. I did my research and found Cynthia in my neighborhood. I had to wait 2 months to get an appointment but it's totally worth it! She was patient and kind and when I told her I'm very sensitive to pain she made sure to put the numbing stuff on my brows frequently throughout the process. She explained everything to me and gave me an aftercare kit and simple instructions as well. If you are considering getting great brows, I highly recommend Cynthia! Book as soon as possible! read more

I set up an appointment with Cynthia to touch up my ombré bows from a previous artist (who was taking a break due to pregnancy). My brows were starting to fade into a weird grey color. The appointment process was easy and all done via online and texting, which was great for my social anxiety and fear of taking on the phone. On the day of my appointment, Cynthia was friendly, easy to talk to and explained the process. The touch up with Cynthia hurt much less than the first time and I love my eyebrows. read more

I am loving my brows!!! I was a 90's over plucking disaster and I can't believe I waited so long to do this. Cynthia put me at ease and answered my many questions during the process months before I made the commitment. She was patient and even took time to show me an animation of what they could look like. Yesterday, I had an amazing experience with Noemi, my brow artist. She was so diligent with getting the right look and shape of my new brow and made me feel comfortable. She answered all my questions and keep me informed on what she was doing. She was very friendly and I could tell she truly cared about my brows as much as I did. I highly recommend these ladies!!!! read more

I do not normally fill in or even groom my brows. I'm very hands off and natural, since I workout and have very oily skin. Good eyebrows can change your face structure and give you a polished appearance. I found Brow Expressions and was impressed by the information and the explanation of the procedure. Pricing is clearly stated for the initial appointment and touch-ups. I know that getting your dream brows is a process. Noemi is my brow artist and I am happy with her thoroughness and work. She did not rush me and took her time with my brows. Trust me, I'm picky and you better be too! Brows are life! The only reason for four stars is the check-in process could have been coordinated better. No one was available to greet you when you entered. A front office coordinator can even help upsell services and schedule touch-ups. I know it's a small business and we are all short staffed. read more

Thank you Cynthia for my beautiful smile. I won the opportunity to have a free teeth whitening session. I was appreciative of the easy process of making an appointment. After making my appointment Cynthia was very thorough and answering my questions. When I arrived the day of my whitening session I was nervous but Cynthia helped me be positive and calm she was able to show me the color of my teeth she showed a before and after and I could see a huge difference in the brightening. Cynthia was courteous and knowledgeable and if you want a bright, white Beautiful smile I suggest you go see her at the Fox den. read more

Dear Yelpers, Do your research, call professionals, and make an appointment with Cynthia because she's a graphic designer, pays attention to detail, is a perfectionist, has a lot of patience, is clean and puts you at ease. And she's super sweet. My 2 hour appointment went by quickly and towards the end, I asked her to retouch a couple areas and she did it with a great attitude. She went back as many times as it took for me to feel happy. That's so important because some artists feel like they know best what you should like. She drafted the most complimentary and natural looking eyebrows for my face and I couldn't be happier. After years of reading about this procedure and envying perfect eyebrows, I can now say I love mine! I let them grow for over a year, but they still didn't look right. There were bald areas, they were too light and uneven and it took too long to shade them in every morning. After seeing Cynthia, I wake up with the most beautiful, ready to go out eyebrows. They took about a week to heal. The 7-10 day healing process was the most inconvenient part of this, but well worth it. I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Friends told me my eyebrows looked great even when they were super dark before scabbing. They've since lightened to the most natural brunette color (thanks to Cynthia's great eye and color mixing), and even though I haven't retouched them, they're fine the way they are now. Cynthia is my eyebrow artist from now on because she has proven to be trustworthy! read more

I had my eyebrows tattooed several years ago. Although they looked "ok" it didn't look natural. I had wanted to try microblading but wasn't sure if I was eligible because of my previous tattoos. Fortunately because it had been so long and my tattoos had basically faded, I could! Michelle was super patient with me making sure that the shape and color were what I was comfortable with. She was awesome. I really liked the card that they gave me to explain what to expect for the first few weeks. The follow up emails reassured me that what I was seeing was normal. I would 100% recommend Brow Expressions; especially Michelle! read more

Cynthia did my nano brows Jan 2022 and it still looked good after one year. Although I don't recommend waiting a whole year to get a touch up. I finally got my touch up today Feb 2023 and I'm IN LOVE!! 10/10 recommend!! Thank you Cynthia! read more

I had my first teeth whitening experience with Cynthia. She is very nice and made me feel at ease. My results turned out amazing (way better than I expected). I thought it would just improve by 4-5 shades, but my result was 10-12 shades whiter. I was very impressed and plan to continue to do this procedure (recommend every 6 months). The process was 4 - 15 mins session and in between each session you rinse out your mouth. The only uncomfortable part is having the mouth piece in for 15 mins and having to swallow with it in, but that's a given. Just try to relax as much as possible, I brought my headphones and listened to music which helped the time fly. My self confidence boost up just by doing this. So if your thinking of getting your teeth whitened don't hesitate and contact Cynthia. read more

Thank you Cynthia for my brows. I now feel like a have a face. My eyebrows got very uneven and thin having them threaded. My sister-in-Law got her brows done about 2 or so years ago with Cynthia. Her brows look amazing and beautiful. I asked where she had them done at and with who. So she told me about Cynthia. I've always wanted my eyebrows done but but was very skeptical and had trust issues. I've been following Cynthia's page on Instagram for about 2 yrs before I finally decided to get them done. Cynthia was professional, amazing and confident. Made me feel very comfortable and had all the answers to my questions and concerns. I get compliments all the time and my favorite compliment is "Wow! You look so much younger!" read more
