When I began experimenting with different methods of self care and expression, a close friend who works in the same neighborhood as POE recommended them. When I nervously walked in for my first appointment, I felt immediately welcome. A large visible global inclusive pride flag hangs from the ceiling in the middle of the salon. The staff didn't flinch at my never-plucked brows or my not-yet-perfected skincare routines. They assured me they wouldn't overdo it and make me look like the girls in my high school classes with arches that made them appear perpetually surprised. They wouldn't try to make me look like someone else. They'd just shape my brows to look clean, neat, and compliment my face. Once it was done, I immediately felt better about my appearance. Even before the pinkness wore off on my freshly waxed skin, I was so happy. I immediately set up another appointment. Now I go every 4-6 weeks and get eyelash tinting too. I highly recommend the trio for anyone who wants to feel pretty when they wake up in the morning without having to apply makeup everyday. These little touches really help me love who I see in the mirror.

I was hopeful that investing almost $1,000 in my thinning brows would result in fully filled in brows but 2 appointments later it still hasn't happened. Maya did my Nano brows and I was told that if my brows needed an additional retouch it would be complimentary but now I can't reach anyone to get it! I've reached out twice and sent pictures along with my concerns, but it's been over a week with no response. I'm back to filling in my brows and very disappointed. There were other issues but for the sake of time I'm focusing on the end product. I will reach out a third time, but am appalled at what I thought would be a positive experience. Not a good experience.

It is rare to find someone who balances high-quality work with such a professional, welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend her services!

The lady was brushing my lid so much with the lash brush that it scraped my eyelid. It burned when we were redoing the lash lift. And this is 3 days after that redo. She told me she did a Keratin treatment instead of a lash lift. It did look better in the end but this scab is now here. I also want to mention that when she used the bathroom, she did not wash her hands that long. Normally i don't notice these things, but it was just like she turn the water on, wet her hands then turned it off. That is probably not a good sign to let someone keep touching my eyes... but I was already upset.

Every morning, I would have to "design" a new pair of eyebrows from scratch -- which was not always an artistic success. I seriously thought about getting eyebrows tattooed, but I wasn't finding anyone who created eyebrows that looked natural. Then I found Kat's Cosmetic Tats and knew I had found the place I had been looking for! I had them done last week and have absolutely no regrets. have had absolutely no problems whatsoever -- except that I wish I had found her sooner. Kat is not only a talented artist, but thorough in explaining the process and working with you to design the perfect shape, color, density, etc. She is both professional and warm. Technically, I'm still healing at this point, but the compliments have already begun. I've received compliments about my eyebrows from people who wanted to know where I had them groomed! And the people who knew they were "recent additions" to my face, asked a lot about questions about the process, i.e., did it hurt, how much it cost, etc. Even when they got up close and in my face, all I heard was "they look so natural!" THAT says multitudes about Kat's talent. Check out all the before and after photos on Kat's and you'll see why I got so excited and immediately made an appointment.

I had my eyebrows threaded by a woman who listened to what I wanted and provided the service I asked for. Today, I did not receive that service. I asked for a clean up only.

I've always left her care feeling perfectly refreshed and renewed. All her products are super high quality but I haven't ever felt pressured into buying anything like I often do elsewhere...although I now have a growing collection of Botnia and other amazing items she's introduced me to. From the moment you step inside this little oasis, you're enveloped in a blanket of serenity, comfort, and beauty. You can tell that everything has been carefully and lovingly curated for your ultimate experience. Francesca's methods and knowledge are well-practiced and very evident; she has spent a lot of time honing her craft and it's obvious why she's always booked out so far in advance. I wholeheartedly agree with another client who wrote that what she provides is more of a form of therapy than anything else. I just wish I could see her more often!

I was shocked that I was told I'd have to pay $70 to reschedule my appt because I was 15 minutes…read morelate. (I accidentally took Arlington, forgetting that it's Colusa that goes to Fairmont, not Arlington; so I had to backtrack. In addition, it was very difficult for me to get away from work, as I work in a deadline-driven industry. This is why I also find it extremely inconvenient that this business is not open on weekends.) A facial is not something I would have purchased for myself, but this was a gift from my mom, who wanted me to experience a facial. This is why I especially wanted to experience the facial, not so much even for me, but because it meant something to my mom that I experience it. This being a 65-minute appointment that cost a lot at $150, being 15 minutes late would have left 50 minutes. I asked if she could do a shortened facial. (In my mind, that would have been plenty because this was something I have never experienced and didn't even know if I would like it.) But she said she would only be able to "put some cream on my face." She would neither agree to a shortened facial nor to rescheduling my appt without the steep charge of $70. Well, this seemed outrageous to me, so I was very angry but I did not lunge at her, as she wrote in a previous reply to an earlier review. That simply isn't true. The most upsetting thing was that she acted like the Queen of No from the moment I walked into the shop. UPDATE (4/12/25): For Francesca to state that I lunged at her is a flat-out lie. In addition, in her reply she is putting words in my mouth in many cases. Just one example: She wrote that I said that I didn't want a facial. What I in fact said was that "I would not have scheduled a facial for myself." That is not the same thing. Further, she states in her reply that "shortening a 65 minute treatment by *more than 15 minutes* is not something [she] is comfortable doing." If that is the case, then had she agreed upon my arrival at 15 minutes late to do a shortened facial, she could have proceeded with that right away, and we would not have have gotten to the "11:37" that she refers to. But no, the "Queen of No" wouldn't hear of doing anything to accommodate me, even as a first-time customer. She mentions that she texted me at 10 minutes after my appointment time but that I didn't reply. Well, of course I couldn't reply. If she had read my review she would have understood that I was driving at that time. She would have read that I said I accidentally took Arlington instead of Colusa and had to backtrack. But of course no leeway can be given even to a first-time customer who is not familiar with her location. After all, she is the Queen of No. Prospective customers may also be interested to know something else that I bet Francesca would not want them to know. That is that she illegally posted my photo on her company Instagram page, a photo for which I own the copyright. I had to ask Instagram to take it down, which they promptly did. And I can prove it.
