First off @Bindi D I am fuming.....I am NOT sure you wrote down the correct place that you went for your eyebrows......and here's why...
1) My husband is a dentist...I was instructed what to look for and ask before I had this done.......saying this establishment isn't clean is an OUTRIGHT lie!
You would have thought she had a farm in her office the way you are speaking....YOUR infection, is not from her...it is your responsibility to do the right aftercare.
I have been going to Maria for years, I am in shock about this review....the ONLY you got right is that she's sweet and friendly, but I would add an excellent communicator, explained everything in depth, does her work with proficiency and accuracy like NONE of the others I have been to. She does it UNTIL its perfect....she measures and gets you involved with the color you want and talking you through the procedure while she's doing it!
Her establishment is so clean you could eat off her floor...I am angry here, although I dont know her except for the many times I have had work dont...this angers me to no end...as people reading this may believe what you have said and hurt this excellent small business that always gives it her all!
2). You said you had a wonderful experience at a med spa...I ask you this...if it was so wonderful, why didnt you go back? Did you claim nonsense things as well there? Look I am not trying to be mean, however, I read this and figured you had the wrong place. Because your whole review is complete and utter BS...
You addressed her going over the same spots...yes thats because she wants to make it perfect....do you want bare spots? I had my brows and lips done to perfection, and I DIDNOT have the numbing Gell on long at all....I didnt even flinch...granted I have a high threshold for pain....BUT if its as uncomfortable as you say...why does Maria have so many good reviews, it appears you are the only one that pointed that out. Lips have so many more nerves and even so I didnt feel pain like you are describing!
There is NO SUCH thing as taking too good care of your base...IF you took the after care seriously, YOU would not have had any issues....If it was that painful....you could have gotten up right away and said I cant take this pain and walked out.
You can NOT blame Maria for an infection, do you have a note from the dr who gave you the antibiotic saying it was from that? I bet not....did you take any photos of the "infection"? Bet not.
Honestly, OMG I have seen photos of her house, I wish I had one as nice as hers, and my husband is a medical professional....if she happen to stay there, its because she is a cleanliness fanatic....homelessness? I hope she sues you for all these lies....did you know she has a dental assistant background, and NO never worked for or with my husband...I am stating this because, they have the strictest of procedures, and she has carried that through to her business.
She is NOT the kind of professional take advantage of anyone! Do you know on how many occasions I have given a tip and she refuses to take it?
Look anyone reading this....I strive for accuracy and ethics and I can say my experiences with Maria have been nothing but the epitome of perfection!
I focus on the positives, and honesty, IF I thought or felt there was even a 1% truth to this I would acknowledge it...But you are way off....I honestly wonder since you didnt go back to the last place that you claimed was so wonderful...if you didnt try to take them like your trying to do to Maria.
I am very protective of people that do me well, and when I read this, I was so angry and that doesn't happen very often. PLEASE who ever is reading this...believe what I have to say...as I for one will NEVER go anywhere else!
Thank you Maria for making me feel better and have more self confidence after doing my lips and brows! read more
