I started looking for locations to look into getting my brows Microbladed.
I found Brows Embroidered on Yelp (best reference tool ever to look for decent and good reviews) I got a quick response back from Shawna. I had my initial appointment set for May 30, as I started to ask and just see by chance if she would have any availability sooner, she told me that day was her only availability left. I was still shocked because of her places I've contacted are booked out 6 months in advanced.
Later that day (Thursday 5/11) she sent me a message regarding a possible open spot at 12pm the following day (which would be for Friday 5/12). Her response time was so quick and to come to think of it... all this happened in one days time! I informed Shawna that I would not be able to make it at that time, but if she could see me at 1:30pm I'd be off from work already. She said she had an appointment at 2pm, I thought maybe I was just pushing my luck. Shawna said she'd get back to me by 12:30pm the following day, regarding the available slot time at noon didn't confirm, she'd squeeze me In last minute and I'd be her last appointment for that day.
She was honest, her communication skills were straight forward and she was very courteous about letting me know that if she hadn't responded to my messages it would be because she was with a client.
So come Friday 5/12 @12:30pm, she texted with she'd be able to see me at 6pm. I hadn't responded till 2 hours later, I had confirmed the appointment and she still kept it open for me. I was extremely appreciative of that.
(Having to not do your eyebrows and having your brows microbladed as an option definitely would save me time, energy and trying get my girls to be even! I know your eyebrows aren't twins, but they're sisters. I struggled with always trying to get them perfect!).
Anywho, that's why I was so excited because knowing that I would no longer have to draw them on anymore.
So Friday came, we met, I felt as if I'd known her all my life, her vibe, her ora was nothing but good energy. Shawna went over the procedure, the pre and post care, cost, she took her time with me, I felt very at ease considering I wasn't too familiar with the area and didn't know if I was venturing into a sketchy part of town, which actually wasn't bad at all.
Starting the procedure she placed the topical over my brows, I waited 20 mins as she went over the after care, we had a light conversation aside from the procedure.
After the topical had set in, she had me lay down and started sketching the baseline for my brows. She was so patient with how I asked for her to lower the arch or heighten the arch, make the point perfect etc etc, such a perfectionist, I am.
The procedure was minor, pain was minimal almost none to me (I've had ink work done before, microblading is nothing like the physical tattooing sensation of pain).
She had taken before and after photos, I couldn't believe the difference, the full filled in wispy look of natural brows! I was glad I got it done and I was in such luck.
When we got done, I paid and Shawna had gone over the post care again to touch up and express the importance of after care.
Today is Day 3 of my brows, it's healing just fine and the new layers of skin are starting to come through!
Thanks Shawna! I couldn't help but list every detail from start to finish with finding you and finishing up the process!!!
I left out some pretty important things to come to think of it, the sterility of her equipment, sanitation which are all plus plus! The price, the price is way more reasonable than all of the other microblading shops that I've inquired to, you get what you pay for. Shawna's not greedy either, its pure art and love that she puts into her work. She's definitely the best in town, hands down read more
