Heidi did an amazing job with my lip blush. The overall process took about 3 hours. This includes…read moreboth the in depth consultation and the actual lip blushing. Heidi made sure to explain the process fully and carefully created the colour that I was looking to achieve. To help her with the colour I had in mind, I brought the lip tint that I normally used. She then crafted the colour with her pigments and ensured that I was happy with the colour prior to applying it. Keeping in mind that everyone's pain tolerance level is different, I did not feel uncomfortable or in pain during the actual process (numbing cream was used before the process begun). Heidi made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire lip blushing process. Upon completion, she thoroughly explained the healing and aftercare process. Again, keeping in mind that everyone's skin will react differently, my lips were pretty swollen after. However, as advised by Heidi, the swelling subsided after 2 days and the whole healing process took about 6 days for all the scabs to come off. Thank you Heidi for doing such a wonderful job!

Had a wonderful experience with Heidi Kim at 'Oh My Lash and Brow' this past Friday! She helped…read moretreat my mother to a truly professional, clean and enjoyable eyebrow microblading experience. While browsing places to get microblading done for my mom, I came across Oh My Lash and Brow on Yelp. What stood out the most, were the before and after pictures of Heidi's previous clientele. Add in the $250 for $450 voucher and the relative close distance to my house, and I was sold. Next, it was easy calling in and making an appointment for the next day; and Heidi gave useful directions over the phone, for getting to her unit number within the plaza - she is located on the second floor; & once you get up the stairs, there are large signs above each door in the hallway letting you know of which business is which. The overall process took about 3 hours, with the majority of the time being spent on the pre-procedure tasks including: initial information session on microblading, consultation, and sketching of the eyebrows. My mother is a very picky woman so they had to be perfect before we could move on haha - I appreciate Heidi's patience. The actual procedure took anywhere from 30-60 minutes and a lot of numbing agent is applied to the area before and during the procedure to eliminate any pain sensations. Heidi also continually checked in with my mom asking her if she was ok and/or feeling any pain. Another great point to mention was Heidi's obvious knowledge and experience performing this procedure. She gave us plenty of information in the beginning regarding risks, signs of infection to look for following the procedure, and she was sure to explain the sterility of the microblading tools she would be using. [Cool to note that she even staples the freshly opened package to each client's consult form.] With my mom and I both being nurses, we were very happy to see that detail and attention were put into the health safety of the procedure, which involves needles and the breakage of skin, therefore carrying a high potential of transmission of infections. Overall, my mom and I were very happy with the results, the entire process and this wonderful microblading experience with Heidi. She gifted us with another voucher to help spread the word and I will definitely be sure to pass it to a friend. It is well worth the time and money spent! Thank you again Heidi for your professional and courteous service, we will see you again in 3 months time for the first follow-up!

I received a full set of mink lash extensions here in April 2017 in preparation for a two week long…read morevacation I was taking. Both my sister in law and I drove from the east end all the way to Vaughan to get our lashes done because we got a great promo deal via Groupon and their work on Instagram looked pretty good. Location: it was a little confusing to get here, but if you look for the TB Tax sign in the plaza, you're in the right spot. There is free parking available and it's a fairly large lot. The salon itself is up a pretty steep flight of stairs and there wasn't an elevator as far as I could tell. It is NOT baby stroller or wheel chair friendly. The space itself is small, clean and pretty. I liked the little touches, like the glitz on the hand towel in the bathroom, and the huge fluffy pillow on the couches. There is no separate area for waiting and treatment, so if you're shy about being beautified with a possible audience, be warned. Mind you, when we visited, there was one other girl finishing up before us and we basically had the place to ourselves. This was great because I had to bring my 8 month old daughter with me and she is a giggly little thing that babbles quite loudly some times. Nicole did both my lashes and my SIL's lashes, although she received an HD set for a 20$ upgrade fee. It was totally worth it if you have a lot of lashes because it looked fabulous on her. I have much shorter and sparser lashes so I stuck with a more natural look. The thing I loved was that I literally just said, "Hey, I just don't want to wear mascara on vacation and still look bright eyed in photos..." and she just knew what to do based on my lash length and eye shape. I also wear glasses so it was important that I didn't get cartoonishly long lashes that bumped my lenses. The lashes were soft and didn't feel stiff to the touch. I left with a little pink pouch with some aftercare instructions and a pink mascara wand to keep the lashes brushed. The lashes held up pretty decently without any refills, even after about four weeks. I've always been pretty good about lash care, but this vacation had been pretty hectic so I hadn't brushed them as much as I normally would and they still looked full, albeit a bit tangled by the end of the day. I'd say they looked pretty good at up until about the six week mark, after which there were just too many lashes that had fallen off. This, however, far exceeded my expectations. Overall, I'd recommend this place, particularly if you live in the area. I don't think I'd be returning regularly only because it's such a trek from my place, but Nicole did a great job and knows what she's doing when it comes to lash extensions.

I almost had a stroke when I saw part of the fake lashes saying farewells while taking mine down too... After redeeming with Yelp, I picked up Wax and Lashes with JJ as my rescuer. Her Web Site is very attractive; the reviews about her work gave me confidence, I found the pictures very artistic, she fit me in her schedule to remove my disgrace, and try to hide the damage the same day. She was really passionate as well as knowledgeable on her craft. I got instant empathy with her because she was extremely friendly, meticulous, plus we share the same birthday (yei). Her bubbly personality made me laugh several times (recommendation: stop by the washroom before laying down). I loved the results and the fact that she also dislikes rap and Drake (good tunes during the whole process). Her magic filled the empty spaces, gave me volume, length, and the promise of putting more lashes when mine grow back. I felted spoiled when I got a 10% off, a cappuccino on her behalf, and no attitude although I was 10 minutes late... (Sorry) Ah, she shares the space with freelance stylists, so if you manage to schedule, you could have one of those marathon beauty days (hair, bye hair, and hello lashes). In here you can also purchase an almost miraculous serum to grow your real lashes called EyEnvy, cool no?

When she was done, she asked if I would like anything changed or added but it was perfect just the way it was. The price is $65 for makeup but compared to the $80 I paid somewhere else last time, it was a great price. I would definitely go back if I wanted my makeup done.

TLDR: Amanda and the Beauty Room are an incredible little…read moreoperation in another salon in Liberty Village. All of their services are listed here: http://www.beautyroom.ca/. She is kind, fun to chat with and is essentially a skin whisperer. I highly recommend! Deeper details: I'm a huge fan of me time, self care and getting my hair and nails done. I've recently discovered going beyond that, and loving on my face. Like many, until my late 20s I really didn't care, or have the money to treat myself well. I was far too busy spending money on things to ruin my body, as one does... Slowly, I became more aware of what I was putting in and on my body, and started seeking skin treatments as needed. Until having babies, I never really had anything too problematic. Unfortunately, my hormonal shifts didn't always leave me glowing. Sometimes it left me spotty and uneven and generally putting on drag-level make up before events. I'm super pale, too, so whenever I break out, the red dot results can last for months. Enter the beauty room and Amanda. I'm currently pregnant, so she consulted with me for a long while on what I could and couldn't do to speed up healing my leftover marks from my first trimester flare up. I did an enzyme peel, a deep exfoliation and a collagen eye treatment (that last one, just for funsies, and to stay ahead of the curve, ya know?). It's only been 24 hours and I'm still glowing, my skin already looks more even and it didn't cause any redness that lasted too long. More importantly, it didn't clog any pores. Hooray!
