Absolutely love this place and continue to be impressed every single visit. I recently came back in and once again had an amazing experience. Dominique is incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and truly takes her time to make sure everything looks perfect and feels comfortable. You can tell she really cares about her work and her clients. The atmosphere is calm, clean, and relaxing, which makes the whole experience even better. My lashes came out beautiful, natural yet full, and exactly what I wanted. Every visit reminds me why I keep returning and why I always recommend this business to anyone asking for lash extensions. Consistently great service, a welcoming environment, and results that never disappoint. I will absolutely continue coming back. read more

Obsessed with my lashes! Clean work, great retention, and such a comfortable experience. Definitely my go-to lash tech

Had my lashes done by Dominique. I love it! Very professional and was completed very fast too. I like how she put in a natural, classic look of my extensions. Enjoyed every bit of my conversation with her too! read more

They're listed as open until 9, but when I showed up at 6 the place was completely closed. Very inconvenient for me and several other customers who came by. There's clearly a lack of communication and consistency with their hours. Not a good look at all. read more

This was the first time I had ever gotten lash extensions done so I was a bit nervous but Dominique was sooo lovely. She guided me through the process and helped explain the differences between the lashes, shape and length to get what I was looking for. The salon as well was beautiful and extremely relaxing with soothing sounds in the background and a heated bed with an optional blanket, it was simply wonderful. It was such a relaxing experience that I almost fell asleep .....twice. In the end I had beautiful lashes and absolutely no irritation or anything on my eyes ( I got the 1 hr classic lashes). Definitely recommend!!! read more

If I can give Zero stars, I would. As a businesswoman of color, I understand the importance of remaining professional and accommodating to my clients. I also understand that even when I disagree, I must remain poised and avoid arguing or going back n forth with my clients because as BIPOC women, we're held to a completely different standard. I wish this were the case here.. Yahni (my lash tech) was very nice. But, when the lashes on my right eye starting to fall out after only 2 days, I reached out in hopes of getting them fixed. Unfortunately, the text messaging did not go well. I am not new to getting my lashes done. And for $122, I would expect my lashes to last past 2 days. First, I was lectured via very lengthy text about "natural fall out" which apparently cannot be controlled and is to be expected even within hours?? Well that makes this the most expensive set of lashes I've ever gotten! Nevertheless, I was told that because I was unaware, that my appointment to get them fixed, was set for 4p. I was then told that next time, I should go back to my previous lash tech since I didn't experience any fall out there. Then I received a notification that my appointment was moved to 4:30p without them checking in to see if this still works. Not only has this business made this transaction/experience completely uncomfortable but I'm also left with a lash job halfway done. Very unfair. Needless to say, I immediately cancelled my appointment, I doubt this business can do right by their complaining clientele. I blocked the number I was texting with because I didn't want anymore lectures about "natural fall out". Plus, whomever was texting, seemed a bit too bothered. But! What does this person do? Text me from a completely different number to tell me I'm "uptight". So disappointing. And frustrating. Owner's reply - didn't even read it. It looks just a ridiculous as these lashes. read more

Made a same day appt for a lash lift + tint, and eyebrow lamination. Dominique was super friendly and nice, and walked me through the steps of how everything worked, including aftercare. It's a beautiful, clean salon! Here's before and after pictures. Don't mind the redness, my eyes are just very sensitive and it disappeared in about 5 mins. read more

TL;DR: I just finished my lash lift appointment with Dominique who was so lovely, kind, and gentle during my appointment. Apparently I naturally have long lashes they're just super straight -- Dominique reinforced that trying the lash lift is a great route for my lashes and she really lift them! Can't wait to put mascara on them. My first and only lash extension was 4 years ago while I was traveling abroad. My lashes were cute but the whole experience was traumatic (my eyes burned like a m f). Needless to say I have been very apprehensive to do anything with my eyes ever since (but I'm tired of using magnetic lashes.) I opted for the lash lift as a small step back into the world of lashes. I am so happy with the result and how much I enjoyed my appointment with Dominique. When I explained my trauma, she really made me feel comfortable and checked in on me to make sure I wasn't having any adverse reactions. read more

UNPROFESSIONAL I booked my appointment online for 6pm. I received a confirmation text that my appointment was accepted. The day of my appointment I received a text stating your appointment at 5pm has been confirmed. The owner changed my appointment time without confirming with me first. I called the salon multiple times starting at 8am and left messages informing I would not be able to come at the time she rescheduled my appointment. 4pm no return call. She than charged my credit card. I had to dispute the transaction. My 150 will definitely be going to someone else. Don't waste your time or money read more

Lost my trust. Honestly, read this and BE CAREFUL when you go into appointments. I went here for a total of 4 times after I moved close by. Each time, the technician would glue lashes too close to my eyelid and my eyes would burn tremendously for the appointment and for a few hours following it. Each time, I thought it was my fault for having sensitive skin and would apologize profusely for having such watery eyes but no, it was definitely not. On my last visit, I asked her to glue only 4-5 per lash and suggest gluing it further from my skin so that I may not feel as much pain. I'm so upset because after I asked and she said okay, she put them SO close to my eyelid still and a few of them even on it! *When there is potential to damage the actual eyes for making contact with glue, it is truly, NOT OKAY.* 2 weeks after the appointment, one extension was bothering me so much that I had to pull it off painfully... you can see how messy this application is- there's at least 15 lashes on top of TWO very visible natural lashes. In the close up picture, you can actually see that I have 4 baby lashes that this bush of lashes was glue on top of. In total she glued 15 lashes on top of 6 natural lashes AT THE SAME TIME..... this is so insane given that this place is on the higher paying end.... read more

1star wish it could be zero. I see by the owners reply that once again she is full of lies. She is not an upholding business person as she claims. Automated responses to not come personalized at 4am with "blue I messages then are turned green after I screenshotted the confirmation. It's amazing how you are quick to reply on yelp but couldn't reply to my repeated messages and phone calls asking for assistance from you. Yes you keep on with your phony business hours and sudden emergencies. My experience is very similar to the other 1 star reviews. Buyer beware!! read more

For my lash lift girlies OVERALL EXPERIENCE: 10/10 CLEANLINESS: 10/10 TIME EFFICIENCY: 10/10 LASH LIFT: 10/10 This is my first time getting my lashes lifted and the reviews on here ain't no LIE - the owner is so sweet and diligent about her work. She takes pride in treating her customers right, and don't play about her business. You probably can't believe I seen all this in one appointment but find out for yourself. She saved me a whole $100 because she knew I didn't need the extra add-on, whereas other places woulda kept quiet. She also gives you an aftercare kit with an instruction card to make sure your lashes stay as healthy as can be after her work. She's great, the place is great, and Imma be back for my renew lift in 6 weeks!! read more

I went here for my first time today and had such a great experience. I got a full hybrid set with Victoria and I am in love!! First of all, when I walked into the shop it felt like so much thought went into the ambiance--even down to how nice the bathroom was, how comfy the bed and pillows are, how clean everything is. Online booking was also super convenient. It was easy to get an appointment, and when I called the number listed the receptionist was super prompt and helpful. Victoria greeted me and had me fill out some waivers. We talked about the style of lash I wanted and I felt like she understood exactly what look I was going for. (Ive only gotten lashed twice now so I was kind of clueless). She was super sweet and had such a calm energy about her. Her calm energy translated into the service as well. She was super gentle, didn't talk too much or too little, and had a very confident touch. I felt super relaxed and 100% comfortable. I was done in almost an hour! Which was so great, because I had more free time for my day. I fell in love with my lashes when Victoria handed me the mirror to see the final product. I'm nothing short of obsessed with my lashes and with the overall experience I had here today. You seriously get what you pay for--and you're worth it, so treat yourself with some high quality lash extensions! read more

OH MY GOSH! I absolutely love this place. It was my first time ever getting lash extensions, & I truly recommend it! First walking into the shop, it's beautifully decorated, relaxing soft spa music was playing. I was immediately greeted by Victoria! She is super sweet! She explained the different kinds of lashes & was just so efficient & nice, then got started immediately. My appointment was scheduled from 2-4. I arrived at 1:55, & she was all finished up by 3:00pm! An hour early! She did a beautiful job, very gentle & was absolutely adorable. Also gave me $15 off because it was my first time with her! If you're thinking about getting your lashes done here, stop thinking, & book your appointment NOW. You can thank me later! read more

Good luck trying to schedule an appointment. I scheduled an appointment on their website. The earliest available time was 7am so I selected that time then I get an email that my appointment is declined. So then I schedule another appointment and this time I select the 8am slot. I love an hour away so I need to leave my house an hour in advance to get there on time. So it is essential for me to get a confirmation of my appointment. Their hours state on google that they are open 6 am so I call several times with no response. I then text the number provided. The person clearly lacks customer service skills. Their reasoning is "the times aren't available unless the appt gets approved" that doesn't even make sense. The least this person can do is apologize for the inconvenience and try to schedule me for another time. It seems like they don't take their business seriously nor professionally. read more

I waited a little bit to post this to see how my eyelashes would turn out. I got a eyelash lift (perm) as I have naturally long straight lashes. I've had this done many times at many diff places and most of the time I have to come back in 2 weeks as my lashes wouldn't lift. With Dominique, she got it done on the first appt. She was super nice and gentle. I even got a little aftercare oil to take home. I'll be coming back for additional services! Thank you Dominique! read more

I'm having a wedding this weekend, and don't feel comfortable wearing falsies. So I decided to try a lash lift for the first time. Dominque did my lash lift, and I absolutely love the results! Like wow, I couldn't believe how good they looked when she handed me a mirror. The process was really easy and relaxing, and she sends you home with an aftercare kit afterwards. I would definitely recommend Dominque for lash lifting! read more

This was my first time getting my lashes done at this salon. I've had my lashes done by another artist once before, and didn't like it. But I decided to give lash extensions another chance after my friend got hers done from this place. The interior is super cute! I love how decorative it is, and the place is really clean as well. I came in almost 10 minutes early to my appointment, and the person that I booked the service with was with Lexie. She first has me fill out some paperwork, and then asked about what style I wanted, length, diameter, and curl type. I didn't even know there was different selections, but I'm glad she showed me the charts and answered all my questions. During the service, she was very gentle and played relaxing music in the background. I usually twitch a lot when I either get my make up done on my eyes, and I was worried that it was going to happen when getting my lashes done. But Lexie did a great job, has a good eye, and I really loved how my lashes turned out! I'm somewhat picky when getting falsies, and was scared that the lashes were going to be too heavy for me. But i love them and think they look great! Thank you so much, Lexie! I feel so pretty! Will definitely come back again for a fill! read more

This is a message about Dominique , who I am now faithful to. She is not only professional and great at what she does, creative consultative and warm. I now had eyelash, lip , eyeliner henna permanent makeup done. All with expert and talented hands of Dominique. I really became friends with Dominique and she is a genuine and an owner with integrity. I highly highly recommend her. Thank you Dominique!! and forgive me for taking so long to write this !!! read more

UPDATE: Dominque reached out to me and ensured my satisfaction. I almost wanted to cry after having such a horrible day yesterday. Since i can no longer wear strip eyelashes because it literally burns my eyelash line. I wanted to get extensions, i cannot thank her enough. Most businesses wont go the extra mile yet she did. I truly appreciate her going the extra mile. I will definitely be coming back for my fill in work! I am super satisfied! I no for next time that I can let them know if its not what i want. read more

I cannot fully explain the thoughtfulness and the craftsmanship of these ladies at Ciao Bella!! The minute you walk in, you are greeted immediately and .. they are just... so nice!!!!! They have you fill out a few forms and on the very last page you write down how you like your lashes. If you don't know they are very very beginner friendly and walk through the different types of lashes, lengths and etc! Their wall is COVERED in Lash information!! When you finished choosing how you'd like your lashes they have you lay down on the most softest and HEATED bed!!! IVE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE IN A LASH PLACE!! I was just so touched especially because I am always freezing when I get my lashes done and I know they need the place cold for the glue. My lash lady was Lexy and she was sooo soo gentle! At times I wasn't sure if she was placing a lash on my eyes but she definitely did an AMAZING job!! I just absolutely had the best experience here and can't wait to come back for mt next appointment!! Thank you Dominique and Lexy!!!!! read more

Victoria did such an amazing work. I am very pleased with the result. The pigment and shape of the brow are so natural. I get a lot of compliments on them. The lady who did my lashes does microblading as well but she was so impressed with Victoria's work and reached out to Ciao Bella to get additional training with Victoria and Dominique. I highly recommend this place, they are nice,clean and organized. They follow Covid precautions. read more

I don't get my lashes done often but the last time I got them done, whoa! I don't like really long or full lashes, I like somewhat of a nature look but with a flare. They nailed it! Usually, I get them done right before a vacation and this year, it was for my birthday in Florida. Despite the humidity and all of the water activity, my lashes lasted a full month! Super impressed with them! I even fell asleep during the application because of how gentle the technician was. I'm usually never able to fall asleep and my eyes constantly tear up bc it's uncomfortable. This time around, I went with the faster, one-hour service seeing as it was my first time. Next time around, I'll be upping the ante and going with the full service. Definitely worth giving a shot if you're looking for a new lash place! read more

Yikes! I unfortunately had a bad experience with this establishment. I sought out this business due to their Sunday availability, I called and spoke to someone about their services, specifically inquiring about 1 week fills for Hybrid lashes because it was not available on their site. The woman I spoke to said to ask for it at the end of my service and it would be $65. I book my first appointment for a Hybrid full set and it's with Victoria. She did a really good job. I loved my lashes. I asked to book a 1 week fill after my set and she gave me her number to text. I texted her the following Wednesday and booked for Sunday at 1p. She forgot to input my appointment and when I arrived at 1p she had other clients. I was very understanding and she asked if I could come back at 2p. I said yes and left. She then texted me to come at 2:30p, so I said sure and headed all the home. She then texted me again after I made it home to come at 2p. Once again I told her that I would get there at 2:15p. When I arrive she says that my lashes are really sparse which I didn't think so being that they were not full after she did them a week ago. But whatever she starts my lashes and tapes my eyelid so that I could not shut my eye completely, eventually my eye begin to burn from the fumes and she gives me a fan. I ask if she could loosen the tape, which she doesn't. She explains that it took just under an hour to do my fill and it should have taken 30 minutes. (I've never had a full take less than 45 minutes) My lashes were a lot more full this time around which isn't really my style but once again it was fine. Anyway, I pay and decide to book online this time and my appointment gets declined, I call for an explanation and my call gets forwarded. Not sure what's up with this business but being that I overlooked my appointment being missed and also having my eyes burning, I should have at least been able to make another appointment and have it be accepted. No problem! I'll book elsewhere! In response: I booked an appointment for May 8th, as I stated in my review, I had my lashes done yesterday and book every week. Yesterday was my second appointment with you guys. My first appointment was great and Victoria was amazing, my second was not so great. I booked a third because I was willing to give it another shot because my first appointment went so well and it was also supposed to booked with you, not Victoria. Instead of being so wrong and defensive, you should have tried to correct it. As a black businesswoman myself, I always do my best to address client concerns within reason and this was definitely within reason. Your business was also marked open during the time of my call so perhaps updating your hours to prevent further confusion. All the best. This owner is so weird. She continues to claim I tried to book a same day appointment when it was clearly booked a week out. She's edited her comment like five times and still hasn't gotten it right. Girl, let it go. The rating was warranted and that is clear now more than ever. You do not have to worry, I have no desire to return to your business. Ciao! read more

Dominique, your right, I apologize for my previous review. I don't know a whole lot about lashes as you said. Previous shop wasn't no where near as nice and professional as yours. After that review my lashes stayed on both eyes for almost 8 weeks with shedding as well. But the system you use to pay on does to me look like it's forced, but that's just my opinion for not understanding it I guess. I want too aways support my peoples business... read more

I went today for the first time and got luck enough to meet the owner Dominique. She made me feel right at home. And although I went in for a lash lift and tint, since my lashes were already dark she let me know that I didn't really need it. She didn't have to do that but shows how honest she is with her customers and how much she cares. She went out of her way to make sure I received my lash care and thought that was really awesome of her. I am so happy I found this place and already booking my next appointment! If you're unsure do it, they wont disappoint. And my lashes came out so good! read more
