Holy wow y'all. I kid you not, I went from having a wispy pair that made me look like the sad…read moretheater mask to killer, thick, natural-looking, and hella manly brows. I'm not proud of what the 90s did to my eyebrow hairs, but I'm super proud of myself for finding Mashari lol She is just too lovely for this world, and has found a way to achieve maximum kindness AND professionalism at the same time. I cannot begin to tell you how AFFIRMING these brows are for a trans elder as myself who has struggled with dysphoria a lot. I struggled with how feminine my brows were for so long, and now they are even better than what I thought i could never have! The way Mashari treated my complicated gender-affirming request was gracious, kind, and honestly above and beyond the courtesy you expect as a customer anywhere. I was seen and heard and respected, then sent off feeling like the world is my oyster! I'm going to go ahead and take credit for giving this incredibly talented artist the title of Goddess of All Brows (creating brows from scratch that look like this is no mortal feat). In case you see her pricing and go "oh my i could get it cheaper," then you are not looking at this from the right perspective; this is literally a face tattoo, and should cost a lot in order to be as good as you dream it would be. I got a bang for every penny I spent, and I'm telling you to go ahead and book Mashari rn and do yourself an enormous favor.

I am absolutely blown away with Mashari's work and how wonderful the experience was. I have wanted…read moreto get my brows done like this for almost 10 years now. It's a big price commitment which is why it took me so long but I finally did it and I cannot be happier. I was a little nervous I would have push back on what I wanted because I wanted a very bold brow for my natural hair color and was so pleasantly surprised with how understanding and supportive of my vision Mashari was. I showed her a few photos of how I fill in my brows and she marked out the exact perfect shape on the first try. I immediately knew I was in fantastic hands. She was great and paying attention to how my face and body were reacting to the process (eyes watering, twitching, etc) so much so I didn't even notice before she did. I was shocked at how little pain I felt from the process. When I finally got to see my new brows I immediately started to cry. This is something I've wanted for a long time and she managed to make my brows so perfect. She was so kind and sweet about my emotional reaction. I really cannot overstate how comfortable she made me feel and how confident these brows make me feel. The studio is STUNNING. I am obsessed with it. Such a comfortable space. She made sure that the tattoo table was as comfortable as possible even having a knee pillow which was so nice I'm thinking of getting one for myself! She even grabbed my sweater for me to make sure I wouldn't get cold. The aftercare instructions and little goodie bag is so helpful. I really love that she gives the exact balm and soap to use. I have a few tattoos and always worry about if I'm using the correct soap and moisturizer during the healing. And with this being on my face I want it to heal as well as possible so I love that she gave me exactly what I needed. Overall this whole experience felt so luxurious to me. From the studio, to the pillows on the table, to the aftercare goodie bag, even to the bathroom! I am blown away with Mashari's talent with tattooing and ability to interpret what her clients are saying and making it happen. She's also just incredibly fun to talk to and I loved getting to know her! I cannot recommend her enough.

I went through her photos and I thought she was great BUT I WAS WRONG! My eyebrows are soooo MESSED UP! I should have just said NO when she did the initial markings on my eyebrows and left but, I was stuck! that BLUE SURGICAL PENCIL she used didn't come off my face for a week. I was so stressed out because my job is in customer service and I had to wear a hat to hide my eyebrows. until this day I have to keep using a concealer to conceal the AWEFUL MESS SCARLET DID! she just made my eyebrows worst! it's a BLACK LINE drawn into my eyebrows! I will post a photo of it soon!

I, and many if not all her clients, will follow her wherever she goes. I made 2 8-hour trips 5 weeks apart and it felt like no big deal. That's how much she's worth it (and more!). Her space is comfortable and hip AF, and she's methodical, organized and thoughtful in shaping and microblading your brows. It also was not painful at all, and I brace for pain like a little biatch for my flu shot (god bless). I feel more confident with my Tessa-done-did-it-brows, and stopped wearing most makeup because I don't feel like I need it. She's not cheap, but why should it be when her work is of the highest quality and long lasting? People can't tell I've had my brows microbladed, and that's exactly how I like it. Don't come here if you want rachety, crooked, or fake AF, obviously tattooed brows bruh.

I've had my eyebrows microbladed three or four times before finding Tessa, and after the last…read moretouch-up with my previous artist I almost cried because of how much I hated them. When features were being given out before birth, I must have missed the eyebrow line because I definitely wasn't given any. My sister used to call them my "commas" and it has always been the one feature I am most self-conscious about and most unhappy with in general. I could not leave my house until I had a full-face of makeup on and my eyebrows were perfect because my brows crippled my confidence and self-esteem so much. I have been drawing them on for 10+ years now and last year I made the commitment to have them microbladed. The artist I went to offered a "natural" look, so I thought it would be a great fit. It wasn't. I was displeased with the color, the shape (especially the tail!), the placement, and pretty much everything about my new brows even after having multiple, expensive touch-ups. I essentially ended up still drawing them on every day after I covered up the microblading with foundation and concealer. When I discovered Tessa on Instagram, I instantly fell in love with her work. The looks that she created were gorgeous, full brows that looked absolutely natural - everything I had wanted in the first place! As soon as I was able, I booked an appointment with her. From the start, she was such a blast and we had an awesome time chatting and talked about everything under the sun. Not only did I have a great (and pain-free!) time during the appointment, but my eyebrows are finally everything I've always wanted! I honestly can't even begin to tell you how much it means to me. I wake up and feel beautiful and confident - something I've honestly never had before! She corrected the previous work and gave me the full brows of my dreams. If you are looking for the most incredible brows of your life, I can not recommend Tessa enough! I am so happy and I feel great now with minimal and even NO MAKEUP! These brows are perfection. Thank you, Tessa!

I made an appointment online - very quick and easy. Closer to my date, I received an email requesting me to confirm my arrival. Upon confirmation I received an email with parking directions - be sure to follow these instructions! I was confident in where I was going but completely underestimated my ability to get here on time. (Traffic, new parking area, etc.) I ran late and received a call from Louie who was so kind and helpful on the phone. When I arrived to the salon Louie greeted me and tended to me throughout my appointment making sure I was comfortable and offered me a drink. Aaron was my stylist and did an exceptional job. I booked a consultation just prior to my appointment and we talked about my expectations. I had a great experience with Aaron who kept it professional and made the long process bearable. Overall 100% satisfied with my new hairstyle and the service I received. I will be back! And another special shout out to Louie for throwing in a second validation for some extra time in the parking garage. This allowed me to spend a little extra time downtown.

I usually do them myself since I don't generally spend on beauty treatments and they always end up looking like I curled them with a curler. My DIY lift generally last me about a month and a half. Now, it's been exactly a week since I got the L&L done at BB and you can barely tell my lashes are curled. Furthermore, after closer examination the lash tech missed a lot of the lashes on my outer lash line and those are still pointing straight down. I paid a total of $120 (including tip) and I have never had so many people tell me that I wasted my money. I am debating asking for a redo but I am really bad at speaking up for myself so I doubt I'll muster up the courage. I'm just gonna go back to DIYing them.

They also have a cute little section of gifts from lotions and potions to any other kind of little stocking stuffer or last minute birthday gift.
