My eyebrows have no shape and they're so bare. I had been entertaining the idea of getting my…read moreeyebrows micro bladed for months. So I reached out to Kristina, based off a referral. She went over the whole process with me and gave me my options, and she really put me at ease. I have multiple tattoos on my body, but for some reason this made me nervous! I decided to bite the bullet and do it, and I'm so happy that I did. Since this was something pretty drastic for me to do, I wanted the amount of shading to be subtle. And Kristina found the perfect balance. She gave my brows shape without overdoing the color. Throughout the whole process, she made me feel very comfortable. Kristina checks up on me often to make sure I'm happy, and she gave me a touch up a few weeks later. As the color fades in the future, I'll definitely go back to Kristina again. And I look forward to it! She is so incredibly friendly and personable. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting to give microblading a try.

My experience with symmetrical artistry was not good, which was a bummer since it seems to be well…read moreregarded by many. I got powder brows, and the process was fine. I did feel judged for wearing a mask which wasn't cool, but whatever. Comments on my brows during my consultation also were a bit critical which seemed unnecessary. It was kind of everything else that made the whole experience a disaster. As I left my initial powder brows appointment, I scheduled a touch-up (included in service as long as it's within 8 weeks). When I arrived weeks later for my appointment, no one was there. As a matter of full disclosure, I was five minutes late. Yet I was surprised, because I've never been to a place where an employee would walk out the door if a client wasn't there exactly on time. I rang the bell and knocked on the door since it could reasonably be a security measure if someone was alone, but the place was dark and the door was locked. Thinking perhaps folks were running late, I sat on their patio to wait a few minutes. After maybe 10-ish minutes I called the salon number. Five to eight minutes elapsed with no response so I followed the instructions on the voicemail, which said to text for a faster response. I got a text from the owner saying that they were at an event and immediately after the text--whilst taking a screenshot of my confirmation text that I'd received two days prior--she called to say that they didn't have me on the schedule and asked if I had received a confirmation. I forwarded the confirmation and she said that the woman who was doing my brows had asked the day before if she had an appointment. She apologized, I rescheduled, but I'd planned the weekend of child's birthday party around this appointment and turned down plans because they conflicted so I was indeed pretty annoyed. Although it was outside the 8 week timeframe--my appointment was at the 8 week mark--they didn't charge me for going outside the initial touch-up timeframe (which would be expected but not always guaranteed). It would have been nice for them to tell the receptionist that though, since she stopped me as I was leaving thinking I hadn't paid. If I had to make the choice again, I wouldn't do the brows. All I can say is that your mileage may vary. It's undoubtedly a rare occurrence but the schedule thing and lack of communication makes me feel their reliability is suspect. And I'm not sure about going back for touch-ups if I need them in a few years.

After moving to the Jefferson Park area, I've spent the past 7 years searching for talented people…read moreto take care of me. I moved only 12 miles away from the (downtown) salon/spa I went to for 12 years, but we all know with Chicago traffic 12 miles is an hour+ drive (one way) and then you still have to look for, or pay for, parking. It made it hard to go regularly like I used to. I'll admit, I'm very picky about who touches my hair, nails, and skin. There have been many trials and errors over the years. For instance, there were times I have felt the service was going wrong and have said, "Stop," and jumped off the table. I know. Mistakes happen. That's cool. But if too much of my eyebrow is accidentally waxed off and then "continued" to be tweezed OR if you make one eyebrow resemble half of the golden arches, and the other look like an Angry Bird, then you tell me it looks good, yeah...not cool. A month ago, I used Yelp to find and contact OmSpa for a facial. If you click on, "Request an Appointment," on (this) OM Spa Yelp page, Catrina (the owner) replies very quickly. I was able to schedule an appointment for a few days later. 2 days before my appointment, I received a reminder via text. The day of, I received a text from the Esthetician. She introduced herself and confirmed my services for that day. Wow! Now to me, "that" displays great client advocates. My Esthetician, Lisa: Very personable, professional, patient, warm, and knowledgeable. I felt so comfortable with her. My SERVICES: Facial, Waxing (brow, lip, and sides), and Eyelash Tint. My FACIAL: My skin looked vibrant, smooth, and youthful. My breakouts along my jawline decreased dramatically and were gone a couple days later. I had many compliments on how great my skin looked. Today, ONE month later, it looks like I had a facial just a week ago! My EYEBROW WAXING, Lisa paid close attention to how my brow hairs laid and to its current shape situation and somehow...she just made it better. I had someone stop and say, "How do you get your eyebrows to look perfect like that?!" My EYELASH TINT: I have thin and short lashes. Lisa did take time to explain that to me. She was so patient with them. I know it's hard to get the tint onto short lashes. The results still exceeded my expectations. NEXT: MICROBLADING My brows are very light and thin. In pictures, I often look brow-less. I use a brow powder and brow brush to fill them in EVERY morning. I can't leave the house without my brows being done. After talking to Lisa about Microblading and doing my own research, Catrina came highly recommended. She's considered to be one of the best of the best so I knew her staff would also live up to that. Lisa helped me make it all happen with Rebecca this week. My Microblading Artist/Specialist, Rebecca: friendly, professional, knows her craft! There's something about her...it's as if you can feel her saying to you, "Don't worry. I got you." I didn't feel the need to ask many questions. I just "knew" I was in good hands. Rebecca picked 3 colors based on my features and showed me the different shapes/arches that would look best for my face. I was pleased with all the choices and we picked the winners together. The process, I felt, was quick yet precise. I discovered I am highly sensitive in my brow area and did have to ask to take a few breathers. Rebecca did not mind at all. She paid attention to her work and stayed mindful of my comfort level. The result - I love how my brows look! They're still in the very fresh healing stage (again, I just had them done this week) so right now, they are dark. After your 1st Microblading appointment, you'll need to do a touch-up 4-6 weeks later. I can't wait to see how they tone down over the next few weeks. If I remember, I'll post another picture in about 2-3 months. OVERALL: YES, I HIGHLY recommend OM Spa. I feel their skills, quality of work, and the before & after care they provide are exceptional. The day after my Microblading with Rebecca, Lisa checked-up on me to make sure I was happy with everything. Truly amazing! I can't thank them both enough. I even have my next appointment already scheduled for a different service!
