I want to thank Mercedes for making me feel so comfortable about her being able to correct my perverse eyebrow tattoo that didn't go so well. It took me over 15 years to decide & go see Mercedes after my daughter Vivian had her eyebrows done. She told me how Mercedes's explain to her the procedure from beginning to end. So I made arrangements to go meet with Mercedes & she was everything my daughter told me about her. She explained that she was going to have to do a color correction & a few other things to make them look natural. She really made me feel at ease and I trusted her. Wow! After she was done all I could do is give her a big hug & thank her from the bottom of my heart. She is amazing I love her & totally give her a 10 Carrie Garrett read more

I highly recommend Mercedes, you will not be disappointed...she's the best. Thank you again read more

AMAZING quality work, service, education, care, & professionalism by Mercedes. I've had my eyebrows & eyeliner tattoos done before, painfully & the older way. I researched & checked out her website for her work, going through her clients' before & after photos. She's got fantastic technique with pain management during my Microblading session. Listens with clarity to what I wanted, what my biggest concern was. Extremely patient, artistic, & experienced. Great instructions on post treatment with her own after-care products provided. And she plans for post follow-up treatments. It is pricey but not any higher than other super high quality of the same services. I have been patiently waiting for the right artist to do my precious singular face. I am already scheduled to go back to her for eyeliner & new lip blushing. XO Update: My Eyeliner tattoo with shading & Lip blushing was so beautifully done. She coached me through the color selection & the pain. Love her! Spot on on the healing dates & expectations. I am 5 weeks out. read more

I would like to start off by Saying Mercedes the owner of Everlasting Ink is super sweet , she is very accommodating to the client and very kindly allowed me to reschedule my first appointment that I had scheduled with her . On the day of my new apt she greeted me outside of the salon which I thought was so nice and very client centered ! Her salon is super cute , clean and follows all Covid Guidelines, she is also very professional and goes over everything super thoroughly. This was not my first time getting my eyebrows microbladed however it was the first time the artist showed me the needles that were being used all new and still packaged up. Overall my experience was great ! Mercedes is great at what she does , she's super professional and really quick but in a good way ! I highly recommend her and her services , please schedule with her ASAP ! read more

I am amazed at Mercedes, both personally and professionally. I recently went for a brow and lip touch-up. Mercedes is filled with positive energy and makes you feel so comfortable. She also takes her work very seriously, and strives to make sure that her clients are happy with the results. She communicates well throughout the process and is there for you afterwards to answer any questions or concerns. I don't know what I will do if I ever move. I will just have to pack up Mercedes in my suitcase! :) Highly recommend!!! read more

My mom had been talking about getting her eyebrows done for a while now but has been very hesitant about the process. I personally don't know much about permanent eyebrows, so I reached out to Mercedes on behalf of my mom and she was so helpful and provided me great information to pass on. My mom felt comfortable after the process was explained to her and she scheduled herself her microblading appointment. My mom had nothing but great things to say about Mercedes' professionalism and her work. I also have to say that her eyebrows look amazing! The only regret my mom has at this point is not going sooner! read more

Dr. Mercedes Leigh was so professional, attentive, and made sure that my concerns were addressed. She was very patient with me and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process.

She made sure my brows came out how I envisioned them to be and that my brows framed my face according to my facial and brow bone structure. Her attention to detail is impeccable. I am so excited with how my brows will settle through with the healing process to reveal that natural look I've always wanted. Thank you Mercedes!! read more

I'm so happy with the results on my lips. Mercedes made me feel very comfortable throughout the process. Her kindness and patients with me made me trust her knowledge and experience. I traveled from West Sacramento to see her in Vacaville. She was worth every mile of my drive. It's been a couple of hours, and my lips feel very little pain. The first time I had them done, this was not the case. I had them done by someone that did not have Mercedes's experience and knowledge of doing lip blush tattoos. You will not be disappointed with your results if you see Mercedes for your lip or brow needs. read more

I won a giveaway for free micro blading. This was my first experience with micro blading. Dr. Leigh was great at making sure that all equipment she was using was sterile and even let me check that the equipment wasn't open yet. The studio was inside a salon and it was very clean. She mapped out my brows perfectly and I love the shape and the color the way I requested. When micro blading, I did feel a bit of pain at first which is normal and she added some more topical numbing cream. After that it didn't feel painful at all and the process was quicker than I thought. Overall I had a great experience. All my aftercare questions were answered. read more

My experience with Mercedes was amazing! She was so welcoming and inviting. We had a blast making videos and talking life while she carefully concentrated on perfecting my brows. We decided to just do a shading with the powder brow technique to accentuate my natural brows. Her genuine attention to detail, level of expertise, and enthusiasm was refreshing and I look forward to seeing her for my touch up! Highly recommend read more

I have to say that Mercedes at Everlasting Ink is a perfectionist! I am in my 50's and thought "why does it matter how my eyebrows look?" but I decided to go as a Mother's Day gift to myself. I AM AMAZED AT HOW WONDERFUL IT MADE ME FEEL! She did such a beautiful job and was so attentive to my "uncertainty". She explained everything as she went, made suggestions on what would look better on MY face, and I am so happy. She is a doll also and has such a kind spirit about her. IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBTS.................DO IT. You will not regret it. ...............You may go back for more, like I am. She also does eyeliner :) read more

I love love love the LIP BLUSH!! The process from start to finish was pretty cool. Started outlining with the a pencil then numbing. As we waited for the numbing to set, Mercedes explained the process and tools that she was going to use. Very informative. When she started the outline I did feel a little bit of pain (minimal) and more numbing was added after the first "scratching". (Not her terms...mine) when she shaded I felt completely numb. The results were amazing! I love it! I know the color will fade to a more natural color but I'm loving the color and plumpness of my lips right now haha which I know will all go down. After the numbing wore off my lips felt like they were exfoliated and tingly. Not too bad at all. THANK YOU Mercedes! I really appreciate all you do and how you explain everything you're doing and what to expect. read more

Came in and saw the ever so Lovely Mercedes in July and so I'm glad I did! I was hesitant since I've had my brows tattooed previously by another artist and just didn't think anything of it. Mercedes is so welcoming and made my experience so pleasant. She kept making sure I was comfortable. The atmosphere was very clean and she was following the normal covid protocols in place. My brows didn't need too much work just touched up on the shaping and shading. She did her measurements, color matching, checking to see if my brows were even. She definitely pays attention to the little details that I didn't even consider. She corrected the shape and shade and I am so glad I came in! I'm back in love with my brows thanks to her. I highly recommend Mercedes. It was such a pleasant experience and I'm definitely going back for my future touch ups! read more

I highly recommend !!! I love the way my eyebrows turned out!! I was scared at first because it's my face and I have really low pain tolerance but Mercedes left the numbing gel longer and it was not painful, she also took a long time measuring my face and eyebrows and now they are perfect. read more
