Ann already pre procedure me with how to prepare myself for this process. Just similar to my role as a circulator nurse. I stepped into the studio where I fell in love with calm, tranquil, clean vibes. Ann is very professional & takes time to explain about the process, consent & color selection. As a in nurse who just wants a colorful lip that won't smudge. She did take her time to outlined, placed the numbing paste, lightly put very fine, new needle into my lip. She keeps adding color until it fully filled up! The most important thing is I felt ZERO pain after numbing process. I did not swollen at all afterwards. I also received the whole set of post procedure care kit and instructions. The color is what I showed them from my favorite roses color. I am beyond happy & want to shout to the universe to do your blushing lip here based on my real experiences today. Picked the right person for your permanent make up artist because they can change your confident constantly. I felt beautiful, safe money to buy expensive lipstick & glosses. Goodbye my pale, uneven skin lip. THANKS to Ann & Kate and myself who dare to invest for my own happiness :) Ps.

Definitely going back to Ann for my touch ups!

My mom has had permanent brows as long as I can remember. She said it helped with her morning…read moreroutine but as she aged, those brows kind of became bluish grey blocks and I swore to myself that I did not want to do that to my face. Well, with the trend of thin brows of the 90s and early aughts, which clearly did a number on my own brows. Apparently, hair does not always grow back the way you want it to. Take that as a lesson and try to shape not overpluck. I had been letting my brows grow in and just drawing them in all this time. I had looked into permanent brows and microblading for a long time but never did it due to cost and upkeep. Anyway, with hormonal shifts and passing time, my brows have been looking sparse these last few years. Drawing in and powdering my brows in the morning takes longer than I would prefer. I did a deep dive into microblading and nano-blading, weighing the pros and cons. I settled upon a few permanent make-up artists in the area and reached out to them. It was time for me to take charge of my morning routine. Saena Kim has a robust repertoire on Yelp and Instagram so I reached out to her. Making an appointment was easy as she utilizes an online booking system. The consultation is $50 and goes towards your procedure if you choose to continue with her. With my oily skin, I knew that most PMA would suggest combination powder brows, but she suggested nano brows that are machine assisted. I trusted her with literally tattooing my face, so I went with her suggestion after voicing my concerns. I asked about the inks, she used (which are inorganic). I asked about her experience with nano brows (4+ years). I asked about the numbing prior to the procedure (topically applied). My appointment from start to finish was about an hour and a half. She took the time to shape my brows, get feedback from me, and went to work with her machine. My pain was minimal; I might have fallen asleep. She has offered microblading services for years. She also offers lash extensions, brow lamination, brow correction, and lip blush too. She rents a space inside Sola Salons in the Woodbury Town Center. It's a small, cute space with feminine details and bright lighting. There are other beauty services offered inside the salon as well, just know where you need to go. There is plenty of parking in the lot. I will be back in a few weeks for a touch-up session but so far my brows have been looking more shapely than ever before. The brows are healing nicely and I will post an update with side-by-side images, when all is said and done. Thanks Saena for giving my brows new life!

My boyfriend won't stop telling me how hot my new brows look Sarah was meticulous about everything, whilst being swift and efficient. She spent almost three hours with me, but never once made the appointment feel rushed. She cares about the quality of her work. I was especially impressed by the technique she used to measure, map, and check my brows to make sure they were symmetrical and complemented my face. I was unsure of many things as this was my first time altering my brows, but she stayed client-focused until the very end frequently handing me the mirror to ensure I was satisfied. Sarah is also incredibly sweet and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire appointment. She is refreshingly honest but remains professional.

From the moment I walked in, it was clear that I was in incredible hands. Erica actually pays attention to detail rather than relying on generic shaping. She asked thoughtful questions about my preferences, my routine, and what had gone wrong with past brow experiences. Instead of rushing or defaulting to a trend, she mapped everything with real precision. I was honestly prepared to find at least one flaw afterward, but the shape, symmetry, and overall finish were spot on. The service was clean, professional, relaxing and super comfortable.
