    Kim is truly an expert at her craft. I did a ton of research prior to coming here and she exceeded my expectations. Kim did such a great job of making me comfortable throughout the process and was fun to work with to make sure I received the results I was looking for. I ended up doing a combination brow after initially thinking I just wanted microblading. I am so impressed how she designed my brows to match my bone structure. I am in love with the results! The salon itself is beautiful and in a great location. I highly recommend Kim at EverTrue!

    Before and after - the results speak for themselves!

    I have been contemplating and looking into microblading for years but delayed, and delayed more, because of timing and apprehension. I mean, this is something semi-permanent on MY FACE so this was no small decision! Finally decided to take the leap and after doing my due diligence research, went to Josefina at Evertrue. Covid protocols are in place so it was reassuring to see everyone with a mask on the entire time with a maximum of 6 people in the salon. I felt confident in Josefina's artistry and skill after seeing countless examples of her work on Instagram. I also immediately felt a kinship to Josefina because we are both sleep deprived new mothers raising babies during an epidemic. Josefina took time to explain the process in detail and drew out my brows so I could actually see them before committing. Her lines were incredibly precise and beautiful so as soon as I saw that, I knew everything would work out. She did amazing work and took me from barely there brows to gorgeous brows. Saves this new mama a ton of time on eyebrow makeup and maintenance. I can't thank you enough Josefina - what a world of difference this has made!

    I heard about microblading awhile ago but had concerns about cost/needed to wait until I was done nursing. COVID-19 seemed like as good a time as any to take the plunge after I read reviews about how safe and clean EverTrue was during the pandemic and how good Josefina was at microblading. All true, it turned out! Even working from home, I still was taking 10-15 minutes every day to fill in my overplucked brows (thanks 1996 for the enduring looks! ) and loved the idea of just waking up, getting the kids to school, and joining a call without the effort. Josefina was excellent, explained everything to me carefully and clearly and did a fantastic job. I was nervous about the process itself (didn't hurt, felt like a very gentle scrape of a fingernail across my brows), but she talked me through it. I have to go back for my touchup session in a few weeks but I'm already hooked on this process and can't believe I didn't know about it sooner. I will likely end up saving 4 ENTIRE DAYS (!!!) out of my year NOT penciling in my brows! Not only that, it looks better and more natural than that stuff anyway. Thank you, Josefina!!!

    After admiring the "natural/fuller brow" look that has grown popular of late, I decided to give it a try. Sadly, I'm not blessed with full brows, just lots of haphazardly scattered brow hairs that unfortunately can't be redirected to the desired area. I tried making my brows thicker using castor oil (too greasy) and then brow enhancing serums (too pricey for the mediocre results it yielded) and ultimately decided to get them microbladed. I chose EverTrue because the reviews were promising and the team is mostly Asian and I was hoping also Asian-owned (I try to support Asian/minority-owned businesses if possible). I chose Kim because she was the most senior specialist at the Chicago location so I felt my brows would be particularly safe in her hands. The initial session, while not entirely pain-free (I felt little scratches towards the end of the session, presumably as the numbing cream was wearing off) was definitely tolerable. And I left with some pretty glorious brows! I am about 2.5 weeks past the appt, and have thankfully made it through all the worst healing stages (scary dark brows, itchy but untouchable brows, Vanilla Ice/patchy brows, faded where did they go brows) and am starting to see the final product. I may get them darkened a bit more or made a tad thicker, but that is what the follow-up appointment is for: fine-tuning. Thanks for my bee-yoo-tee-ful brows, Kim. See you at the follow-up!

    This is a long over due review. As I'm ready for a brow touch up and considering options, I just can't put EverTrue at the top of the list. I had my brows microbladed here and the process was awesome in terms of pain, results were fair, and I wish the customer service would have been a bit better. When I got my first session done, I was pleasantly surprised that it was painless. I was comfortable in the studio, and Jackie made sure that I liked the shape and listened when I requested a few more strokes. Same with me second session. I wasnt crazy blown away by my results. They were WAY better than my natural brows and make applying makeup 90% easier. But I wasn't in LOVE with them, as I expected to be. I'm not sure what needed to be added (maybe ombre instead of strictly microbladed?) but for roughly $500, I'd expect to love them. Which brings me to my final point...customer service... I flew in (long story short, I'm from Chicago but was contracted elsewhere for work) from out of town specifically to get my brows done here (so I guess the brows probably cost over a grand when you consider flights for both sessions. ). Between sessions I never received a follow-up call, just an email for a review. At my second session I explained where I saw sparsity of pigment in areas with Jackie explaining this is normal for the first session. I thought for sure, especially given my expressed concern that someone would follow up with me and see how I liked my results. Nobody did. Just another email for a review. Anyone else I've talked to about their microblading experience has said their studio followed up with them a few weeks after the second session to make sure they loved their results and if not, they were asked to come back in so they could make adjustments. I wasn't DISAPPOINTED with my results, just not as blown away as I thought I'd be. Maybe I should have had ombre brows done instead or something but when I'd explained what I wanted my result to be, was advised to do strict microblading. If someone would have explained options, followed up with me, or advised me better, I likely would have upgraded to ombre which would have resulted in a higher price tag (great for the studio) and results like I'd wanted (great for me) but this wasn't the case and now I likely will not return here, ultimately resulting in the loss of a returning customer. If you know EXACTLY what you want and don't mind lack of communication following your treatment, you may like EverTrue. If you need advising and want follow up regarding results, I'd go to a smaller/more personable studio as I will for my next brow treatment.

    After the first session, the eyebrows were uneven. This was a shock as the natural brows after a…read morebrow wax and tint looks much better. But we were told the the cheek bone and over all bone structure was uneven, so the brow drawing followed such. Later as the brow healed, there were patches that were lightening up, and when it healed for the most part and the color evened, you can really see the unevenness of the brows. It was pointed out by so many people. The only hope, and the excuse we told people, was that it wasn't finished yet, and there would be a second and final touch up. The directions post op were followed to the tee. The final touch up, which is mandatory at this point, was an extra $200 on top of the $500. So that's roughly $700 investment before taxes and fees. We were a little uneducated on pricing of microblading/ombré brows as we only based our patronage from the referral of a person who's eyebrows we saw. Since the visit here, I've travelled to LA and NYC, and asked around Chicago downtown, and saw that the $700 total is up to par to the high-end salons that service brows. Where you're given much more salon treatment during, while waiting etc. I've also seen the works in person of brow artists who have done it on asian oily/dry skin, light colored skin, etc. And there's no problem with patching. The eyebrows also were done very evenly and nice, as if it were drawn in naturally, regardless of bone shape (no one's facial structure is even after all). The other shops also told me that O wouldn't need to come back until 1-2 years, but this place said 8 months to come back and pay $350 for another session. Like what? I retract my first statement. And definitely you're able to find downtown salons with greater customer care that check up on you post procedure for this price. The shape also of the brow isn't that great.

I sent Josefina a photo of my dark lips to determine if the process would lighten my lips and add color. It did not. My lips were dry but never peeled. When I shared this with her after each session, she showed me pics of other client who had dark lips and successful results. She said instead of 3 sessions it may take 4 for me to get results. After 4 sessions my lips are the same color they were before. Her reviews show she is good at micro blading eyebrows but the lip coloring process did not work for me. So do your research before investing in this. I paid $1500 for a cosmetic procedure that did not work and she is $1500 richer. Beware!

If you want a mediocre and embarrassingly bad experience, then this is the place for you. I booked Marissa for ombre powder brows in August, after a friend recommended her to me (this friend has since reversed course and no longer recommends Marissa - we both had the same poor experience). I paid in full for the service, which included a post-appointment touch up. I was initially happy with the results, but they faded after a two weeks. Marissa assured me that the color would eventually "lift" and that I should give it a few months to see better results. Two months later, the color never lifted and my brows had literal GAPS in them, so I reached out in late October for a touch up (the touch up is included in the total price). To book Marissa, you DM her on instagram. I DM'd her on October 14th to schedule a touch up. She responded immediately that she would "get back to me"...two weeks went by with no response. I DM'd her again on Oct 27, and she finally got back to me. We scheduled for the upcoming Friday. I work in consulting, so my schedule is insane, but I was able to rearrange meetings with clients specifically to get this done. Friday at 3:45, as I was already IN THE CAR driving to her salon, she texts me that she needs to cancel. I'm annoyed, but whatever - things happen. We reschedule for Sunday. She completely ghosts me on sunday and never responds to my texts. Finally she responds and we reschedule (for the 3rd time) for Wednesday afternoon. On Wednesday, about half an hour before my appointment (literally as I am getting into my car to drive to the appointment) she texts again that she needs to cancel because of...construction? This was the first time I had heard about this "construction", and it sounded to me like she was running out of excuses to keep cancelling. By this point, I was pretty angry because I had to rearrange my entire work schedule (for the 2nd time). I texted her "You tell me when you you're open and I can move things around". No response. By 7pm that evening, it was obvious she was never getting back to me, and I decided to write her off completely. I texted her and asked for a refund for the touch up that I had already paid for. Again...crickets. I finally gave up - you won, Marissa! Giving Marissa the benefit of the doubt, I would probably guess the reason for this extremely rude behavior is that Marissa is woefully naive and probably should not be running a business in the first place. I doubt her business will be open for much longer if this is the client experience she is offering her clients. On the other hand, it's possible she's running a scam. Guess I'll never know. TL;DR: There are plenty of other options for brow services in Chicago - don't risk your time and money on Marissa.
