2.5 years ago I walked into Eyebrows by Sally with barely-there, uneven brows and a LOT of anxiety…read more Let's just say... my 2000s over-plucked era did not prepare me for this glow up Thin, confused, fighting for their life brows. Walking out of my first appointment? I had actual eyebrows... and also a little panic. It wasn't what I had pictured at first, and I was so unsure. But Sally reassured me that the shape would compliment my face and my fair complexion -- and she knew exactly what she was doing. I remember constantly checking the mirror like, "Wait... these are MY brows?" And slowly, I fell in love with them. Fast forward 2.5 years to my touch-up and these brows just feel like me -- soft, natural, balanced, and effortlessly beautiful. The kind of enhancement that doesn't overpower your face, it just brings everything together. Sally (and Matt!) are so professional, kind, and patient -- especially if you're an overthinker like me. She has absolutely won me over for life. If you're nervous about microblading, trust the process. And trust Sally.

This review is long overdue, but absolutely necessary -- Eyes By Sally deserves all the praise…read more I've been going to Sally since 2022, and after my first visit, I knew I'd found my go-to permanent makeup artist for life. Before finding Sally, I had my brows done by another artist and unfortunately, I hated the results. They looked unnatural and harsh. I ended up going through tattoo removal just to lighten them enough to start over, and that's when I found Sally. She completely transformed my brows. Not only did she correct the previous work, but she gave me natural-looking, beautifully shaped brows that I love. Sally is incredibly skilled, gentle, and takes her time to ensure everything is perfectly mapped and customized to your face. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and artistic eye make all the difference. She genuinely cares about her clients and it shows in her work and the confidence you walk out with. Thanks to Sally, I finally have brows that make me feel beautiful. If you've had a bad experience elsewhere, or are nervous about microblading, trust me: Sally is the one!

I also don't like when service providers upsells you on products without your knowledge and automatically add the product to your bill without asking you.

Things like that always leave a dishonest, bad taste in my mouth. Maybe you'll have a better experience but I won't be going back.

She is located downtown Orinda in an alley with restaurants and stores. Her shop is super cute and very clean inside. Janell has a nice personality. We had a great conversation about life and family. Janell will apply a numbing cream on your eyes for about 10-15 minutes. The procedure doesn't hurt. You'll feel a tickling or itchy sensation. Janell takes many breaks in between tattooing so it gives you some relief between the session. I am pleased with my results and I am happy I no longer have to draw my brows and eye liner. Thank you, Janell, for your professionalism and artistry. I will be back in the future. I highly recommend visiting Doll Face for permanent cosmetic tattooing.
