Yup, I'm tooting my own horn, but if I don't, who will?! Plus, I think every woman should strut their stuff and feel gorgeous, whether it's for a special occasion or just a girl's night out on the town! This review is way overdue because I had my make-up done by the "Melanin Matcher" herself, Ms. Heather, and she did a fabulous job - no, phenomenal job! Why the name "Melanin Matcher?" Glad you asked! Chile, she can literally match ANY skin color/type (and I do mean ANY) to the correct foundation that complements your skin! Guaranteed...No Lie! For the ladies that have tried to get their foundation matched up to their skin tone, you know how difficult that can be. Heather has mastered the science of figuring this out for us! Yesssss!!! Since I follow The Image Concierge on Instagram, I knew she was the perfect person to do my make-up for an upcoming event. I booked my appointment online and any questions I had, I was able to have them answered via email. You have the option of going to Heather's in-home studio or her/staff member coming to your home (for an additional price). I opted for Heather to come to my home. A down payment was required and I was set. She arrived promptly on time and we hit it off instantly. Heather has a very warm and welcoming spirit and her vision for my make-up was spot on with my cocktail attire. As stated before, she did a PHENOMENAL job! We talked about a variety of skincare products, make-up options I could do on my own, and brands that aren't often sought after but are really good. A few months later she had a special make-up presentation at her home and she invited me to attend...just a classy and business savvy lady. I can tell she appreciates her clients and I definitely appreciate her! She's doing big things in the make-up game and I'm glad she was able to assist me on my look that evening. I received many compliments. Thanks again Heather, you made me shine that night. SN: I need to make another appointment, even if I don't have an actual event to attend. I'll just be cute while I'm scrubbing the tub or mopping my kitchen floor. Ha!

It was a pleasure to work with her on my make-up for my professional headshots. She earned the title "melanin matcher" because she can perfectly match your foundation. She helped me find my perfect summer and winter foundation match. I still use the foundation she matched for me. I would recommend her to everyone and for all make-up needs. She also does personal beauty product shopping trips, gives great tips on her IG, and is just an amazing person.

I wasn't interested in getting it redone until I discovered nano brows. I waited, researched, waited more, researched more and found Yeksenia.

I save time and look exactly how I wanted. so if you're considering nano brows, please do it, I'm in love! The atmosphere of the location is also nice and parking is super easy for it being in Old Town.

I've been going to Lyn for about 6 months now and my skin looks amazing. I have scarring and…read morediscoloration from acne. I love the treatments because they are comprehensive and consist of a variety of steps that all serve a purpose. This is not just a mask you can do yourself at home. Also, Lyn is the BEST at extractions. She knows exactly what she's doing so your face doesn't get beat up and it's not too painful. Lastly, I'm going through brow rehab to move my arch more towards the outer corner of my eye and I'm very satisfied with the progress. My brows are lush and manicured and slowly but surely turning into the correct shape.

I first started going to Lynn in 2016. I found out about her through a friend who took pity on me…read morefor my atrocious eyebrows. Lynn worked on my eyebrows for about 4 months before I moved out of state. In that time my poor brows had made great progress. Fast forward 2 years later, I've moved back to the area and without hesitation knew I had to allow Lynn to work her magic and get my brows back in shape again. Making an appointment was easy. She remembered me which made me feel special. This time around my brows weren't as bad off, but they will still need some work. I wouldn't trust anyone else but Lynn to give me brows to be envied. Lynn is an expert as what she does. She knows her stuff, and by stuff I don't just mean brows. She is a professional esthetician, who is more than willing to not only serve you but give you free advice to help whatever skincare/ health journey you're on. She's personable and takes her work very seriously! I love Lynn and will recommend her to anyone for their skin care needs!

Getting my eyebrows microbladed was the best decision I have ever made! I was diagnosed with breast…read morecancer and upon being told I would lose all my hair, including my brows, my first thought was that I needed to act quickly and get microblading prior to starting chemo. Melanie at NOVAbrows was absolutely wonderful to work with. She was totally understanding about my situation--when my oncologist initially said no to the procedure, Melanie canceled my appointment and very kindly refunded my deposit; then, when my drug regimen changed and microblading was approved, she was able to fit me back in. She was a delight to work with, extremely professional, and did a great job on my brows. It was nice having "glam brows" for a little while before losing every one of my eyebrow hairs. I'm so glad I didn't even have to think about how I would look without eyebrows. It was a huge morale boost for me, especially not having hair on my head. I just had my brow perfecting session after finishing chemo and I'm thrilled with the final result. I can't recommend Melanie enough, and I'll definitely be returning for periodic touch-ups regardless of whether or not my brows return. Also--note that yelp only shows the five most recent reviews.

The makeup turned out flawless - everyone complimented it. My photographer said it was the best she's seen - when it stayed on after an epic cake fight, she was shocked.

My bridal party loved there makeup too - I can't recommend her enough!!

They got darker and I thought that was as good as it gets. Then Twyla at Derma-Artistry in Bowie, MD. did them, and now I know how my eyebrows should look. I'm THRILLED with them. She tatooed them into a fantastic shape, full and dark like I wanted....they look better than they ever have IN MY LIFE. Twyla is a professional; she is so good at this difficult profession and I will never, ever go anywhere else. Her procedure room is spotless, charming and comfortable.
