Zara is amazing. I will never go anywhere else! I love how she listened to me about what I wanted and helped me retain what felt natural for me for my brows. 11/10. Edit: just went back for my first long term touch up after two years! Here are my brows before, after 2 months, and after 2 years (right before I got them done again). I didn't even really need it, but I wanted a bit more depth again. read more

I requested natural, straight-ish brows and Zara worked with me to find the best shape and color for my face. The process was easy and exactly as described: one longer first session where we spent a lot of time on shape, and then a touch up a couple months later. I am so happy with how they came out!! Thank you Zara! read more

I got my eyeliner tattoo done today! I have waited nearly 10 years to do it because I wanted to find the right permanent make-up artist and I found her!! Zara is knowledgeable and definitely has an eye in helping achieve the right kind of look and liner that fit the shape of my eyes. I trusted in her art & talent 100% and I couldn't be happier. I am already looking forward to seeing her again when she has to do touch ups. She is so skilled and really takes her time and really perfects her work. She did a mock-up right be before to allow me to evaluate the work before getting it permanently tattooed. Zara also cared for me throughout the process and I didn't notice the time going by. I definitely don't regret it and I am so glad I took the time to find someone who does the work so well! So so grateful to her and beyond ecstatic! read more

Zara at Eastside Microblading Studio & Academy is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend her!!!! I've followed her from a previous studio and only trust her with my brows!! Because I've dealt with hair loss post treatment, I am very careful and mindful with what work I do and who I work with. Zara is very gentle and very kind. She's patient and understanding when performing the services and that makes you very comfortable. If you're doing your eyebrows and want to guarantee an excellent experience and service then Zara is the way to go! But know that she books up fast! read more

I cannot recommend this studio enough. Every single person I've interacted with that works here is incredible kind, knowledgeable and talented. And you feel like you're special and at home being at the Bellevue location. From Mary being able to answer any questions and getting your appointment set, Amanda the boss is so caring and does so much - I've only talked to her when Mary is off, but she has such a positive kind attiture, Kimmy doing cyro treatments (they are worth trying!) who takes the time to work with me wants to genuinely help you achieve your goal and is so incredibly sweet, hard working and considerate and Zara - she is amazing! I've spent over half my life with my eyebrows not growing correctly and I overplucked so much that I stopped having hair and I was so scared to get them tattooed, worrying that I would destined to look weird forever. But boy was I wrong. Zara is extraordinarily talented and cares tremendously about her clients. She took the time to tamper my worries, to go over every part of the procedure, help me feel confident in the process and made me feel special which was an incredible experience. There were even several clients that were stopping in for other procedures or bringing a family or friend to try this amazing place out that had gotten their eyebrows done and had incredible results and were so happy with their experience. Everyone here loves their craft and cares about you as an individual not just a customer- it is worth every single penny. I actually look like I have eyebrow hair and I feel so much happier waking up each morning. If you're wondering if you should get microblading or ombré brows done , please look no further! Their artists and healing process are like no other! read more

Eastside Microblading Studio - This is day two of healing with no hair at all for eyebrows! - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Zara is the most professional microblading artist that I've ever experienced. I previously had a negative experience at another salon, so I came to her seeking a correction. Before the procedure, she thoroughly went over aftercare and answered any questions I had. Most importantly, while sketching my brows, she was sure to make sure they were perfect and I liked them. She was completely unfazed by my desire for an additional stroke here or there, something my previous artist did not appreciate. I can honestly say going to Zara was the best decision I could have ever made for my face. I highly recommend her! You will not be disappointed. She fills up quickly so book in advance! read more

I can't say this enough but I am so happy I have found this amazing place! I am getting married in September and for the longest time I have struggle with belly fat and some back fat forever. I work out close to 5-6 days a week and make sure to eat healthy but still had these stubborn areas. It wasn't until I was on Instagram and found Eastside and their $199 promo for cryo body sculpting that I decided to give it a shot! I am very shy with my body and needed something to build up my confidence. Shoutout to Leslie in Bellevue who I see every two weeks for the past 6 weeks to get these results! It is a quick 1 hour session and no recovery time needed! It is that simple! I am posting my real results here of just what 3 sessions can do for you! I have 3 more before my wedding day and I'm so excited on the progress! Truly amazing place and amazing people! If you have ever wanted to try cryotherapy body sculpting I would definitely recommend it! It's worth every penny! read more

Review update! It's the end of the year and the fat is still off, and I lost more. After completing my full package of 5 treatments I lost a total of 6" around my belly! The reason it's so effective is because of a few things. I followed pre and post care instructions and their machine goes over a larger area than other cryo machines that only target a specific area at a time. I didn't change my lifestyle much and I know that helps assist the fat freezing, but I didn't change much to be honest and still lost the inches. I'm so happy with the final results! read more

Zara is the best. I live in San Diego and after seeing her work on Instagram I decided to go get my eyebrows and lips done by her. I'm so glad I did that, it was worth every penny thank you Zara. read more

Highly recommend! The service and staff are wonderful. Staff are friendly and listen to your beauty needs. The space is also very clean

I had microblading of my eyebrows done here . A year later they were mostly faded and they looked thin and faded with thin/bald spots. It was my first time so I didn't know what to expect plus it was very expensive. I tried another salon/esthetician that was recommended and realized I could get the same procedures for a reasonable price and not $1000 plus that I spent here! They did a mix of microneedling and shading on my eyebrows this time and I love it!! Plus the touchups are so reasonably priced!! I'm going back for lip blush too. My advice would be to do your research,shop around, ask around ....there are a lot of great salons out there that don't overcharge and are reasonably priced. read more

Just got my eyebrows done by Zara at Eastside Microblading and had a great experience. Amanda personally answered my questions over email and Zara was super easy to work with. She even offered to come in on her day off to do my eyeliner. Still waiting to see the final results for my brows but super excited! Would definitely recommend them. read more

When I decided to get into the beauty business, inspired by my own Microblading experience as a customer, I did a thorough search for potential trainers and schools. I went through plenty of prospective trainers, but it was Amanda and Beauty Angels that stood out to me. Beyond Amanda's obvious winning personality and positive attitude, the details of the Beauty Angels Academy intrigued me. While a lot of Microblading schools and trainers offered a few days of instruction and then left you to sink or swim, only Amanda and Beauty Angels offered 20 levels of curriculum through online training, which can take up to 6 months, in addition to the live training. At first I was a bit hesitant because I was impatient to get my business up and running and getting certified in a few days seemed pretty enticing! But the more I researched the Beauty Angels training and the more I researched Amanda on Facebook, Google, and Instagram (my inner spy... or stalker!), I became more and more convinced that she was the right trainer for me. I read every review she's ever gotten in her life (ok... maybe not!) and that, along with the success of her former students, sealed it for me. And I was not disappointed! Once I attended her Microblading course in March, I knew for sure I had made the right decision. Amanda is so calm and thorough in her explanations. She breaks everything down so that you can absorb it. But she's no pushover and is not going to pass you unless you produce good work. For example, for the very first level of the online training, I had to hand-draw a pair of brows. I submitted my first attempt: rejected. I submitted my second attempt: rejected. I took a deep breath, took Amanda's advice from each rejection to heart and finally passed on my third attempt! I have little doubt that a lot of other trainers wouldn't have been so firm in holding their standards but Amanda will draw the best out of you whether you like it or not! But it wasn't all just criticism. Whenever I submitted work, Amanda would be sure to tell me what I did RIGHT in addition to pointing out where I could do better. It was those bits of praise that helped keep my confidence up when I wasn't sure I could do it. Another great thing about Amanda is that she's always just a text away, as she will respond to any of your questions even on the weekends or when she's on vacation. That's dedication right there! I ended up passing my online training in June and opened up my own Microblading business soon after. Even after I officially graduated the course, Amanda still made herself available to answer questions and has been very helpful with little tidbits of knowledge, like what ink colors/mixes to use on various clients' skin colors or advice on business procedures (which is all new to me! I've never run a business before!). She is a person with a heart of gold and is very geniune about wanting to help others. I know she could make more money just performing Microblading instead of instructing others but she enjoys giving back and helping others make the journey she has made to the top of the mountain. I'm still not there, but I am so happy I have had Amanda guiding me along the way and I know I'll get there one day! read more

Today I went to Eastside Microblading and saw Laura to have powder brows done. I was rather afraid to have this procedure done as it is permanent, requires upkeep, and if you don't get a good artist it could adversely affect how you look as brows are a central feature of your face. Laura went above and beyond making me feel comfortable. I was the last appointment of the day, and Amanda, the owner, was also there and both Amanda and Laura answered all my questions, and made me feel so comfortable I went ahead and had my brows done. I have naturally very thin brows, and wanted a natural look not building up a brow that went beyond my natural brow line. Given I have platinum blonde hair Laura decide to do a iight taupe color as I have olive undertones in my skin. I was told that lighter colored brows can be more difficult depending on the warm, or cool tones in your skin, and the tones in the color of the dye that is chosen. When Laura was done I was amazed at what an improvement the brows made to my face, and this is not even the completed brow, yet. Powder brows are applied with a machine and I felt zero pain, and didn't even ask for numbing cream. The brows will be darker in the picture I post with this review as they were just done today. The brows lighten up over the next 6-8 weeks, and you return for a second visit to refine the shape and color. I will return the second week of December when Amanda will do my second application refining the shape and color of the brow. I'm beyond pleased at the work that was done by Laura, and I'm very impressed with the professionalism, kindness and artistry exhibited at Eastside Microblading. I'll include a picture from today - just remember my brows will lighten once they heal, and the final shape and color will be refined during my next appointment. The old adage you get what you pay for applies here - these lovely women take their job seriously and provide exceptional service and beautiful brows. Of note, they include in-depth aftercare instructions and products to make sure you get the best results from the work they do creating your brows. I will post another review after my next visit and post some additional pictures so you can see the healing process and the final outcome. Thus far I'm beyond pleased with Laura's work and would highly recommend coming here if you want powder or micro bladed eyebrows, and you want professionals that have the highest standards doing this work on your face. read more

Zara is a master. I wear very little makeup: most days nothing, sometimes just mascara and concealer. I had a little gap in one of my brows that bothered me enough that I would fill it in any day I wore makeup. I was quite nervous to get microblading, because I was worried it would look heavy or painted on, when my look is very natural. Well, Zara talked with me at length about all of my options and reassured me that with microblading only the areas I wanted, she could get a natural look. She was absolutely right! I LOVE my brows, and it's so time/energy saving to never ever have to use any brow pencil. My brows look perfect every day! The studio was clean, well lit, comfortable. Zara is a joy - calm, listens to you, and most importantly, her work is impeccable. read more

Zara did a beautiful job at micro blading my brows! I've been following her on instagram and finally made an appointment to see her. The girls at the salon are super nice and Zara made me feel so comfortable! You can tell she really is an expert at her job and takes extra care with every detail in the experience. It's been a couple weeks since my appointment and my brows are healing and look fabulous!! Thank you Zara! read more

Amanda and Zara are absolute masters of their craft. Not only do they provide incredible, natural looking services (my brows and lash line have never looked better, and nobody can tell I've had them done...until now, I guess!), but they also make the whole process comfortable and fun. Every person who works there is unbelievably kind, intelligent, and genuine. Can't recommend Eastside Microblading highly enough! read more

Amanda @ eastside Microblading is amazing! She is such a sweet heart! She listened to what I wanted as well as offered other advice that was very helpful in deciding what shape and color to use for my brows. She uses tools for making symmetry and I later found out that she knows a lot about math and so she is a perfectionist when it comes to making sure both brows are symmetrical. I didn't even realize how much more I loved the shape of my brows after she made them even. She uses quality tools and has the top training out there with Phi brows. She definitely knows her stuff! She walked me through aftercare and was able to make sure they were just right when I had my second touch up! I would highly recommend Amanda for anyone who is looking into Microblading- she is the best! read more

Amanda is AMAZING. Mic drop. I get so many questions about where I get my brows done (wax) and I simply say "they're microbladed by Eastside Microblading!" I was very hesitant to get Microblading and it took me months of emailing her to really get over that. She is also extremely professional and responsible and asked me about my Type 1 diabetes before agreeing to even work with me. Trust that Amanda knows what she's doing from pre-Microblading care, to brow shape and thickness to post-care. If you follow her directions, she will not lead you wrong!!! read more

Wonderful service and results! Zara is truly an artist and I am very happy with my brows and lash lines! Highly recommend!

Truly an amazing experience! Zara is an incredible artist. I had lip blushing performed by her on Thursday afternoon and by Saturday my lips looked and felt great. I have had several friends get it done from other places and informed me to "lay low" for the weekend, you will look like a clown for 3-4 days. Not the case. Yes, a little bit of peeling, to be expected, but other than that...nothing. No pain or irritation. Went out on Saturday. I would highly recommend Zara and the entire staff to anyone who is looking for high quality and beautiful results. Worth every penny! Thank you, Zara!! read more

You won't find a more caring, encouraging, uplifting, and talented group of women anywhere else! I had powder ombre done to my eyebrows before starting chemotherapy. Laura did my eyebrows and I am so impressed with the results. I'll definitely continue to come back--it was a great experience all around! read more

I just had the Cryo Sculpting with Leslie. I wasn't sure what to expect from the appt, I was a little nervous that it might be painful. Surprisingly, it was really relaxing and didn't make me cold. I'd recently heard about bruising from another type of cold sculpting, so I hoped it wasn't something like that. Luckily it's nothing like that, it's a flat hand piece. Leslie was so nice to talk to, had great advice on what to do for aftercare. It was easy to park and the location is clean and bright. The front desk gal was very sweet. A great experience! I want to get a package, because my results are good! The area I did was lumpy and now it's smooth, and I haven't measured but to me it looks slimmer! Can't wait for more! read more

I can't say enough good things about Amanda! I am crazy about my brows and searched for a long time before settling on an artist. Amanda made me feel comfortable and talked me through the entire process. Our first appointment, she stopped after everything she did to make sure I was still ok with the look or the tiny changes she was making. I was looking for an everyday natural brow and that's exactly what Amanda gave me. If I'm going out for a night I can fill them and make them more bold (but I don't need to!). Amanda went over the aftercare with me in full detail and answered any questions I had. Ultimately, the end result is a mix of how your skin reacts and how well you take care of your new brows, but she gave me the guidance to make sure they healed great. I highly recommend her! read more

Highly recommend! I completed first session with Laura. Laura is both personable and professional. Laura was also efficient and detailed. I felt like my eyebrows were in good hands. I chose this location as I was wanting a fuller natural look. I'm very happy with results and look forward to my next appointment. read more

Wow! Why didn't I get this done sooner?!? I have light features and started tinting my eyebrows 3.5 years ago and loved the look but had to go in every 2 months. My friend recommended microblading! Amanda was so lovely and knowledgeable. I didn't really know what I wanted and after showing some photos she personalized the whole experience. She explained the entire process so there were no surprises. It was low to no discomfort due to her technique. She is a total pro and has worked on 3k brows! My brows were almost invisible and now you can see my face and they look so natural. Highly recommend booking with Amanda! read more

My experience with Amanda was nothing but first class. I met Amanda a couple of years ago in Florida at another training. We both live out west so I kept track of her, she has bloomed into a wonderful trainer. My skills have greatly improved because of my Advanced Training Course I took with Master Amanda. The course was a private one day course with a model. Also the training is not over for 3 months, there is online levels to pass before you get to advance. I'm now a Silver Angel!! Thanks Amanda read more

Amanda is so knowledgeable & friendly! She explains every step of the way and makes sure everything is PERFECT before she starts anything! I told her what I wanted and she knew exactly what to do. I have a touch up appointment in about 6 weeks and Amanda said I can choose to darker if I wanted from there. I love how she'd rather start lighter and work my way up rather then giving me dark eyebrows right away. I can't wait to see what they look like completely healed and finished! read more

I was recommended by a friend who had her brows done by Amanda. I was super excited to get them done as I'm a huge believer that the brows are the frame of your entire face. I had a consultation with Amanda who was super professional, knowledgeable and friendly. Which got me even more excited. I did not get my brows done that day. I was pregnant and would need to wait until I had the baby. I did a lot of research during that time and decided to book with Amanda. The first session went well. Wasn't to painful, we enjoyed conversation. We had decided on the shape but I insisted that they were too far apart but she said she had done all the measurements and that they should go any further in. Trusting in her expertise, I rolled with it. However, at the end of my session, while they did look much better than my normal brows it still wasn't what I was hoping for. The brows were too far apart and they were still too think. She expressed that she doesn't do bold brows and only does a natural looking brow (but this is hardly even close to a bold brow), and said I would still need to fill in with a pencil. (Didn't I just pay nearly $500 to NOT use a pencil every morning?). After the brows healed up, they didn't hold much retention and they were very uneven. My best friend event commented that they were too far apart and didn't look even. Then I went to my touch up. I expressed I still believed they were too far apart and uneven and she was very resistant to adding more so she agreed to add ONE hair to each brow. She touch ed up the rest. Looked better but still not at all how I have seen other brows turn out and by 4 weeks when later when healed they STILL were uneven, too far apart and very thin. I voiced my concern and Amanda offered to give me a free second touch up. I was not happy at all and I had lost confidence that she would be able to fix them. But I had to do it within 2 days because she was having a surgery. I couldn't do it either of the days so I asked for a full or partial refund because I was really unhappy. She refused but later texted me that she had refunded $200 to me. I spent over $700 so I basically threw away $500. I made an appoint for a consult with another microblader who has done two of my friends' brow, and both of them look absolutely flawless. At my consult, she said my brows were "a hot mess". She said the microblading was done in clusters, did not match, were not done in the way my hair naturally grow and the hairs were too short. She said they were also too far apart (ugh! I know!) and the arches were different and the tails were not the same length. She said they would have to be completely redone, reshaped etc. Moral of the story: I'm not paying an additional $700 to get them redone properly. I would not recommend Eastside Microblading. Amanda is a very sweet girl but I am now paying basically double to do them over. I'm pretty upset about there. Do your research and go elsewhere. My brows looked nothing like the before and afters posted. The picture below is AFTER my touch up read more

I am a new client here at Eastside but I've been following Zara for a couple years. The look of the business is so beautiful, zen, and aesthetically pleasing. I love how convenient the parking garage is and that I don't have to walk very far. I was greeted by someone who was very welcoming and introduced herself (unfortunately I couldn't remember her name but she was super sweet). Every experience I've had with Zara has been so pleasant. She has been working on my brows for a couple years and I only trust her to touch them. She takes time to make sure the shape fits my shape and she never rushes. I started off with bushy caterpillar eyebrows and now beautiful brows that shape my I'm a very loyal customer to her and I just enjoy Zara as a person. She's always been friendly and makes me feel comfortable. Whenever I can, I try to refer people to Zara whenever they're interested in microblading or lip blushing. read more

Such an incredibly positive experience with absolutely fantastic results. First I reached out to Amanda here on Yelp. She was quick to respond and her positivity already resonated in messages. I have tattoos, but the days leading up to this appointment racked my nerves because it's a significant change to your face! As soon as I went in, I was relieved. The office is elegant and clean. The aesthetic was super Instagram friendly. Luckily I decided to get there a little early. Lots of photo ops around the waiting room! Amanda is brilliant. She is upbeat and reassuring, while being incredibly knowledgeable about her craft. Honestly, I have known about microblading for a couple years now, but I had never considered it because the results. To me, it didn't seem worth the price tag to have penciled in looking brows. But, I've always researched artists just out of curiosity. As soon as I saw Amanda's photos of healed brows, I booked an appointment. The hair-like precision is the fruit of a Phibrow artist's labor. I wouldn't have had this done if not for Amanda's result photos. She is a master of the craft, and super willing to teach you to ensure your healing process goes flawlessly. It was like a sleepover, the energy was so upbeat and positive! For me, there wasn't pain because I do peel off masks and facial hair removal regularly. It was a totally bearable feeling. The results are amazing!! I have seen so many photos of transformations so I thought I knew what to expect. But to see yourself is a whole new ballgame. It's such a huge improvement! We kept my shape and thickness, but to have hair (I swear it looks JUST like hair) maintaining thickness throughout is just beautiful! Do your research on microblading so you can fully understand and appreciate everything about Amanda's completely sanitary, ethical, mathematical, technical method! I forgot all my nerves because we had so much FUN, and I feel just as confident about the healing process as I did about her flawless application. Writing this review is the longest I've stayed away from the mirror to look at these eyebrows!! Thank you, Amanda! I couldn't have imagined better results or a better day! It was either you or no one! read more

I just finished a weekend course with Amanda and it was just excellent in every single way. First and foremost the class was limited in size and we were all spaced out 6 feet apart. We were provided with N95 masks as well. That was great to see. The Beauty Angels educational content is hands down one of the best if not the best out there. I learned so much and I came away feeling more confident but also with more pride in myself and my ability. It was for sure the best thing I have done all of 2020 except maybe marrying my husband! HAHA. Amanda is just so clearly passionate about what she does. I booked another class with her for January and I cannot wait to get my brows done by this incredible master artist. read more

I love Amanda! She is so passionate about her work and she puts her heart and soul into her business and her work! Got my microblading done by her today via a referral and I'm in love. They're fuller and super natural looking which was what I was going for. Amanda is detail oriented and meticulous with her work, which is Awesome because she wants your brows to be perfect!
