I strongly warn anyone considering Premier Brow Bar in Metrotown. My experience with Jiya was…read moreunsafe, unprofessional, and dishonest. I went in for a simple eyebrow threading, but Jiya convinced me to do a lamination and then charged me for a full-face threading I never requested. She also performed an off-menu facial, doing deep extractions without my consent, which caused pain, ruptured capillaries, and skin damage. My eyebrow lamination was ruined. When I asked Jiya why facials were not listed on their website, she said they "do not offer it to everyone" -- essentially admitting this service is outside the scope of their licensing with Fraser Health. During the appointment, Jiya spent 20 minutes complaining about her personal breakup, saying her boyfriend ended their two-year relationship because she is Hindu, he is Sikh, and his mother refused the marriage -- completely unprofessional and irrelevant. The next day, I returned to request a refund. Staff acknowledged my damaged skin, took photos, and contacted the owner. I sent the photos, but the owner never called back and is now refusing all communication. My face is still sore from the damage. This business is unsafe, unskilled, and dishonest.

These people are scam artists. I went in for a threading and a tint and they applied a lamination…read morewithout speaking to me about it first and getting my approval. They did a terrible job a refused to handle my complaint. I'm currently waiting for a call back from the manager but when they do call back I'm going to make it clear that I am refusing a refund so there can be no doubt that im not doing this to scam a free service as was originally implied by manager #1.

I had a really positive experience here a few months back getting my eyebrows laminated for the…read morefirst time with Michelle, the owner, and I decided to get powder ombre for my eyebrows with a jr brow artist. I reached out to Alisha and from the moment I messaged her, to meeting her, and through our follow-up conversations, I've felt incredibly comfortable and cared for. Alisha took the time to answer my questions and reassure me since I was initially a little nervous and hesitant. The brow appointment took 4 hours since she is newer, but I was appreciative of her attention to detail and her dedication to making my eyebrows look perfect. Alisha would keep finding small things or details about my eyebrows that she wanted to fix or make even more symmetrical. I am so impressed and thankful for her work. I've had several compliments on my unhealed & darker eyebrows already and I can't wait to see what my eyebrows look like when they're fully healed! Thanks Alisha!

I don't have enough words to express how much I love Meraki…read more I have been coming to Meraki for lash extensions since November 2018 (when they were still at their Kingsway location) and since then, I refuse to go anywhere else. Their new studio on Burlington is absolutely gorgeous. It's spacious, girly, and cozy. On top of lash services, they offer brow and nail services as well. I've been seeing Jess since day 1 and she is fantastic. I always do a volume set and since I've been seeing her for so long now, she knows the length, style, and amount of volume that I like to a tee. I've never been disappointed by a set from her. My lashes usually last 3-4 weeks (sometimes 5 weeks) before I need to get a fill, which says a lot because in the past my lashes never lasted more than 2 weeks from other studios. One of my favourite things about Meraki (besides walking away with gorgeous fluffy lashes) is the family atmosphere. All the technicians are so talented, friendly, and funny. There is always good music playing in the background, which is a plus when you're laying there for 2 hours. I genuinely enjoy coming to get my lashes done because I find it extremely therapeutic. I mean, you get good music, great conversation, fluffy lashes, and potentially a nap while you're there? Win win, in my opinion. Since coming to Meraki, I constantly get compliments on my lashes and I'll always send them here. For as long as I'm in Vancouver, Meraki will be my go-to lash spot.

I had two tattoo ideas I wanted. I was going to bring them both to an artist and see which was…read morecheaper. The two ideas I had were roughly the same price -- and doing some math, I decided on both (two tattoos are better than one!) as for two it was fifty bucks more than one of my older tattoos. Idea one was Fire Walk With Me. Idea two was a stick figure Bride of Frankenstein that my husband drew. I thought idea two would be the one an artist wouldn't want to do, but Felicia seemed so excited to tattoo the stick figure. Felicia was super sweet and super kind. Her tattoos healed great! The vibe of the shop was super chill. Nice big waiting area so I didn't feel like my husband was left somewhere cramped. The waiting area was dim and had nice comfy couches. Not dim in that way to hide things, but shaded and cool. The tattoo areas were nice and lit up but not so much so that you can't close your eyes and relax. Some tattoo places are lit like a dang movie set!

Paige is the best! She did my Relaxation Massage and it is indeed relaxing!…read more I happen to be recovering from some type of flu virus. I decided to do hot yoga that day at 9:30 am. Although yoga helped making me feel better, I decided to go for a massage. I was trying my luck that day to get accommodated without reservation. I walked in, was greeted by the lovely receptionist and asked how she can help me. I told her I wanted a massage. She checked her computer and luckily I only have to wait 1 hour. This Eccotique branch is conveniently located inside Metrotown mall. I could definitely spend 1 hour window shopping. Five minutes prior to my appointment I was already back at Eccotique. I was lead inside and was asked to sit on a couch and wait for my masseuse. I was offered water or tea while I wait. After five minutes, my masseuse came and introduce herself. My masseuse' name is Paige. She then lead me to a private room. The room is of adequate size. Enough for a massage bed and for the masseuse to move around. I was asked to sit on the bed and was told to close my eyes. Paige then pressed her oil damped thumb on my forehead as she asked me to inhale deeply. She did this 3 times each with different aroma oil. I ended up choosing the Rosemary Mint oil. Paige then stepped out of the room and asked me to undress and go under the sheets face down. While waiting, I noticed the relaxing music playing in the background. I hear the sounds of the ocean and then birds. It was really pleasant to the ears. Before starting the massage, Paige asked if I have any injury or if I have parts of my body that I don't want pressure on. I am typically healthy so went for a full body massage. It was heavenly. I like that Paige would always check if the pressure is acceptable. I'm not a masochist. I don't like hurting myself more so paying the person who hurts me! I like my massage to be just right. I can say I went out of that spa a changed person. I felt so relax and loose. It felt like I can do another round of 90 minute hot yoga. This spa is highly recommended.

Wow! My first time here and my hair cut really exceeded my expectations. My stylist was Sayaka…read moreand she was very attentive and understood the length and style I was going for. She saw the photo and delivered above and beyond. The hair wash, cut and style took about one hour. The whole time she was attentive to me, she cut and blow dry and went back to finish cutting. Each step of the way she exhibited excellent technique and skills. I asked for medium length with layers and side bangs and that was exactly what I got. The salon was super clean as well, all the staff is very professional. My cut was $55 with a 10% new customer discount. I will definitely be coming back. I will try color next time.

Mauve Hair Salon just recently opened up in Burnaby area, and I am so thrilled. I have been wanting…read moreto book for a haircut for quite some time, but their Richmond location is way too busy.Finally, I have decided to hit the new Burnaby location up, and it did not disappoint. I came in early, got sitted and waited for my stylist to come. This place has no free parking available, but they have plenty of street parking. The rate is $3 per hour. Miyo was my hairstylist and she took a really good care of my hair. Before she started cutting my hair, she asked my preferences; such as my habit (how I style my hair or if I just uses hairdryer, my plan (growing hair), and what kind of style I want to go for. Then she started cutting, and after she cut my hair half way, she asked me to move to the washer station to wash my hair. Once I got seated, she gave me a blanket to cover my legs. She covered the back side of shirt around the neck area with plastic wrapper and some towels to make sure the water did wet the shirt. Afterwards, she setup my chair and the foot rest. Then she also gave me a cover for my eyes. While she was washing, she also gave out some massages. It was such a relaxing moment. After, we were done washing, I got seated back to the haircut seating area, and she begun drying my hair. After drying my hair, she started cutting my hair again more carefully this time, especially the bangs area. She took a great care of my bangs, and I loved my overall looks. After she is done, she gave me suggestions on how to style my hair with the new haircut. After paying, I got escorted out by her. Overall, I would recommend Miyo, she went above and beyond with her services.

I was very disappointed in my Ombre' brows that I had done in July 2021…read more I am fair skin, blonde and the color match was way off. It was very dark for my skin tone, but Lynda told me it would fade. The brows were very wide as well and did not match my face line. I emailed Lynda 2 times to advise her that I was not happy, and did not hear back from her. I have since spent $200 to have my brows lasered and back to square one. I also did not think Lynda was professional as she was chatting with a co-worker about boyfriends, and getting away for the week end the entire time. This was at the Surrey location. I will not go back and will not recommend.

Look no further! Brenda is the girl for eyeliner tattoo!…read more I have been looking for a place to get my eyeliner tattooed because I really didn't want to see smudged eyeliner by the end of the day anymore. Or when I accidentally scratch my eyes or do something crazy. Personally, I think semi-permanent make-up is the way to go for my lifestyle and makeup habits. I usually only wear natural make-up so I opted for the Simple Subtle Lash Liner. I browsed Brenda's reviews on Yelp, and I looked at her website and Instagram page before I contacted her. So Brenda enticed me to come in for consultation by seeing that she is all about focusing on au natural type semi-permanent make-up. Since that's what I wanted, I went ahead and booked an appointment. The procedure wasn't as painful or as scary as I thought it would be. The result also looked REALLY good! The colour was fantastic and I could totally see it so natural looking. After a few weeks, it healed, then I decided to go in for a touch up for a bit more of a darker look. It was so epic. Exceptional work. Pink walls. Very girly. Loved it.

Stop right now and look no further! Brenda is THE PREMIER microblading eyebrow artist in the city…read moreof Vancouver. I did my research folks. I read reviews, checked out Instagram feeds, watched YouTube videos, and scoured websites for months, before deciding on B for Brows. The end result is that I'm SO happy with my eyebrows after Brenda got a hold of them and so glad that I took the leap with microblading. I only wish that I had done it sooner. With my new waterproof brows, my morning routine is so much quicker and I'm much more confident leaving the house without make-up. If you are still undecided about where to go for microblading, here is why you should choose Brenda: *EXPERTISE - Brenda has expert training and specializes in microblading eyebrows! She does not do other cosmetic procedures as she is a master at shaping and sculpting beautiful and natural eyebrows. *HYGIENE - Brenda has a background in the Dentistry field, so she is trained and knowledgeable about hygienic practices. Her studio is beautiful, bright, clean and private! *PROFESSIONAL - Before your procedure, Brenda takes the time to talk with you about your eyebrows, from colour and shape, to thickness and arch - what you don't like and what you hope to achieve after microblading. During the procedure, she also explains in detail what she is going to do and why, so you are prepared. She also provides detailed instructions on AFTERCARE - super important! *FRIENDLY - Brenda, herself, is very friendly, warm, and welcoming. Feel free to chat her up while the numbing cream takes effect. *NATURAL - I wanted natural looking eyebrows and Brenda delivered. If you look through her portfolio, this is her specialty.
