About a year ago, I decided I wanted to get my eyebrows mirco-bladed. Since then, I've been doing…read moremy research on brow salons in WI and MN. I was particular when choosing my artist, as this is a face tattoo. Sabiha came recommended by a friend and after looking through her portfolio, I decided to book my appointment. This recommendation came with the warning that her prices had recently increased from $500 to $700 and that scheduling any follow-up appointments would be irritating. The price didn't concern me as I was willing to pay for perfection. On the day of my appointment, 4/4/22, Sabiha asked to push me back 40 minutes. I agreed and showed up at 2:40 pm. When I arrived, she was chatting with a cousin who had a studio across the hall. Her cousin left, and I got settled. I was nervous but excited as Sabiha talked me through the details. I explained that I don't usually wear make-up, and expressed how important it was that my brows looked meticulously natural. She threaded them and mapped out where they should be based on my facial structure. Sabiha stressed the importance of where I did and didn't want brow strokes as it was difficult to remove any once they had set. She explained how she measured everything twice, and that the right and left sides were perfectly positioned. I trusted her and agreed for her to proceed. The tattooing process was uncomfortable but hurt less than threading. While Sabiha tattooed my face, her cousin returned. To my surprise, she stayed for the remainder of my appointment, which bothered me only slightly until I realized the consequences of the distraction. When I was handed a mirror for the big reveal, my stomach dropped. Both brows were longer than what I thought was natural, my left brow was two hair strokes too far in, and when I raised them in shock... heaven forbid I should ever be surprised. Sabiha offered to add strokes to the right brow to try to mirror the inconsistencies which I forbade. I decided to let my eyebrows heal in hopes that the middle and tail portions would flake off in the process. We made a follow-up appointment, and I left feeling discouraged. Upon arriving home, I asked friends for their opinions and my fears were confirmed. I immediately grabbed a make-up remover wipe and proceeded to scratch out the first two hair strokes on my left brow. I'm thankful I did because I was successful in remedying this major mistake. After the two-week healing process, the tail of the left brow had successfully fallen off, but the right brow is still two strokes too long. Sabiha texted me about a week and a half before I was supposed to come in for my touch-up appointment asking to reschedule as she was going out of town. Frustrated by the inconvenience and nervous about more mistakes, I reluctantly rescheduled for the following week. She said she wanted me to be happy with my brows, and to let her know of any alterations. I explained how the only alteration I wanted was for her to remove the two tail strokes on the right brow. She said she would look into a product that would fade these strokes. I asked if this product was included in the $700, which she rejected stating, "I've never had anyone want to remove or not be happy with a certain stroke." My response: "Just because you haven't made a mistake before doesn't mean you shouldn't take full responsibility when you do. As you suggested, I will remedy the right brow on my own. I would like to cancel my appointment, as I do not wish to provide you with another opportunity to make a mistake you will not take responsibility for." The only response I received was an email confirming cancelation. There was no partial refund for services not performed. I sincerely wish I had gone elsewhere and not paid $700 towards her Range Rover payment for a stick-poke tattoo. In comparison, it only costs ~$500 to have a licensed nurse inject half a syringe of lip filler. I was looking for an artist but didn't realize it was a scam until it was too late.

Consistently had to correct her and fills took no less than two hours. Which normal fills are an hour to an hour and a half. Then, after coming back from vacation, I receive a message from her stating that maybe I should look for a different lash artist because she gets too stressed doing my lashes. I gave her four chances to do my lashes correctly, however, she did not like being corrected, when my lashes were uneven, not the mapping that I asked for or not filled in properly. Not to mention, I asked her to take off the old Lashes and do a complete new set and she did not want to. She stated she did not like doing full sets if she didn't need to. Then she would use the excuse that I didn't have enough Lashes, but other lash artist were able to get my lashes, completely full exactly how I wanted them. The only reason why utilize her initially was because my original last artist of four years had moved out of town, so I was looking for a new lash artist. However, I would not recommend

In a move toward general self-improvement, I decided to up my eyebrow game. I had been mostly going…read moreto nail salons and getting it done pretty cheap and while the results weren't necessarily bad they weren't all that consistent either. The wax-ists at the nail places tend to favor a thinner brow shape than I generally prefer for myself. I have naturally thick brows and what I'm really looking for is a cleaned-up version of my natural shape with the bushiness under control. It was thanks to Yelp that I found Cora. I liked the idea of going to an actual aesthetician since the goal was doing something a little nice for myself every 4-6 weeks. The salon space is small, really in the lower level of a building under a coffee shop. If it weren't for the sign out front I might have missed it. It's not that far from where I live so I'm not making my little ritual into a difficult errand. Cora is really nice and works with my schedule. I do a brow and lip wax and the price is really reasonable. I have gotten so many compliments on my eyebrows, including from people who either haven't seen me in years or don't normally notice eyebrows. Cora doesn't make them too thin or lop off the tail end on the left side like some of the other places were doing. I get to keep my "natural" look but look polished at the same time. I'm really glad I found this place.

Very good at distracting you from the waxing process and the space is calming and nicely decorated. I had never had hard wax used before, but I like it and she works great with it!

The location (since right in downtown MKE) gets a little bit difficult when it comes to parking sometimes, but is totally manageable. Will be a return client for quite a while!

When you are to arrive to your appointment you text once you're in the parking lot and they will let you know when you can come in. Everyone has to wear a mask while getting their hair done.

(also did not have that customer fill out the appointment form, which is interesting considering they practically bark at you the second you walk through the door to fill it out). I can understand that it was just one lady in the floor today but when you had rushed through my eyebrow threading, consistently hitting me in the eye, no apology for doing that either ( I forgot manners aren't really a thing anymore these days). Then when she had handed me the mirror to look over her work, I felt extremely rushed and overwhelmed by her. After paying and being able to actually get a look at the threading work I noticed there were a few mistakes still. I tried to go back in to see if she would be able to fix it but I didn't see her & my patience had already worn thin at this point. Needless to say, I probably won't be back. Just wanted to put this out there so people are aware of what type of services they are paying for at this establishment.
