    A few hours after the process; not yet healed but looking amazing
    Brittney D.

    What I love most about Kathy and her work is her attention to detail and her keen eye for shape. What's more, is she manages to make them look so natural! I came to Kathy to add more depth and color to my brows. If there is one thing I do every morning, it is fill in my brows. I don't typically wear much makeup; with clean, shaped brows, the look is effortless. Kathy managed to make the process very comfortable. While there was some slight pain involved, she was as gentle as I can imagine anyone being, given the nature of the procedure. I was so pleased with my brows after that I shared photos with family and friends. My mom is scheduled to have hers done next week, and my sister can't wait to have hers done as well. I go back for my touch up in a few weeks and can't wait to see the completed look. Please do yourself the favor and book with Kathy! She is great at what she does!!

    My old microbladed brows became so faded with an orange tint that just looked horrendous. I went to Kathy and she spent so much time detailing my brows. She made sure it was symmetrical and I loved the shape before doing my powder brows. And the final results are AMAZING I 100% recommend going to Kathy for your brows! You will definitely thank yourself after! I get so many compliments on how on point my eyebrows are now

    Kathy did such an amazing job on my eyebrows! Her work definitely shows. She takes her time until they are perfect. I am so happy with the results. I will continue to come back for touch ups in the future. If you want someone that takes there time to produce perfect results, Kathy is the one you need to pick.

    I dont know how much I have to reiterate this, but Kathy is a MIRACLE WORKER I've had a pretty decent amount of eyebrow hair, but Kathy was able to shape and shade my eyebrows to my liking, just like how I would do it on a daily basis with a powder and eyebrow brush. I highly advice to think of how you want your eyebrows done (thicker, shading, strokes...) and to let her know what you want her to do because trust me she will do it and she won't fail you. Shes amazing, very welcoming and makes sure that you're comfortable while she does your eyebrows. She really does an amazing job. I already told my sister to get her eyebrows done with her and she already has an appt on 08/05/19. I HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!!!!! I cant wait for the touch up Thank You Kathy!!! you rock... P.S. For my eyebrows she did a mixture of shading and strokes just like how I wanted it...

    Kathy is amazing! I had decent brows to begin with but with some sparse areas here and there so I just told her I wanted it to look natural and she did just that! She really takes her time to make sure you get the brows, shade and shape, just the way you want it. Very professional. The process took about 2.5 hours but she was so sweet and passionate about her job so talking to her made time fly by. She was very considerate about my comfort level throughout the whole process. Highly recommend Kathy for anyone who wants their brows to be on fleek!

    Katie L.

    I had such a great appointment with Kathy! She could tell I was nervous when we first met, and so took the time to describe the entire process and answer all my questions. She made sure I was happy with my shape during measurements and continually checked in with me when we started microblading and shading. The entire appointment was easy and I was so happy with my brows! Kathy is thorough and extremely patient. You can tell she's highly passionate about what she does. I highly recommend coming here -- you won't be disappointed!

    I am super impressed by Kathy! I've been wanting to get my brows done for a while now and really struggled every morning to get my brows to look good. Before I booked with Kathy, she answered the many questions I had about the process and made me feel at ease when I made the decision to do the ombré powder look. I am incredibly pleased with how it turned out and a lot of my coworkers have complimented me on her work! Her work space is very neat, clean, and comfortable. Kathy is a great conversationalist and makes you feel relaxed and welcomed. I highly recommended her to all my friends and family ! Can't wait to go in later for a touch up! This makes my morning so easy and effortless.

    Brows retouch

    I highly recommend Kat if you're looking for somebody to fix your brows. I had my ombre done 2019 by somebody else and she had it redone Jan 2021, retouch yesterday. She has a very nice, safe and cozy location (inside Phenix salon). Her price is very very reasonable (one of the best out there I may say) and I am very very happy with her work. I have low pain tolerance but she makes sure that I am comfortable and pain free during the procedure. She is very responsive with all inquiries and question. Thanks Kat!

    Kat is an artist, I am glad I went to her to get my eyebrows done for the first time. She is sweet, very friendly and professional, she really knows what she is doing, I felt very comfortable in the process, I appreciate the time she spent to get the perfect brows for me... also her place is clean and welcoming. I definitely recommend her !!

    I was really pleased with Kathy's work on my eyebrows. She made me comfortable right in the beginning. I really appreciate her attention to detail and keen eye to shape. Most importantly I love how she makes them natural. I had a lot of people and family members commenting about my eyebrows. I definitely 100% would recommend Kathy doing your eyebrows!

    My new eyebrows

    Absolutely love my eyebrows! Life feels different with full eyebrows. Kat did an amazing job. I recommend her if you want nice full professional looking eyebrows. No more worrying for me about smearing my eyebrows after a long day. Thank you Kat!

    Ombré brows

    Kat is AMAZING! I went to her 2 weeks ago for my ombré eyebrows and she did an amazing job. She pays attention to details and she walked me through the entire process. She's very friendly and professional and I would for sure recommend her to anyone

    Christen C.

    Kathy is the sweetest! She is so friendly and professional. Her work is amazing! I usually pencil my eyebrows in every single time I go out... I didn't think it coule be possible for microblading because I had so much eyebrow hair, but she did a great job. The pain was bearable with some lidocaine gel. You won't be disappointed. I love my eyebrows!

I studied the available microblading techniques, styles and after care processes. It took many months and YELP searches and finally found this establishment. I knew right away it was the place for me. It was many weeks before I was able to make an appointment as my calendar limited. After booking it online (totally for this process) I received a text asking me preliminary questions as well as requests for screenshots of my brows. Long story short, Denise is a professional. Doing her homework to assure her success and her clients satisfaction. She proceeded to suggest a style and shape and drew it on my brows to show me what it would look like. When I told her I had my own ideas and wanted to look similar to the way my brows were before the over plucking and over shaving and age, she did not necessarily agree with me. But because they're my brows and I explained in detail what I wanted, she went with my request. When she was finished, she was pleased and mentioned she had not done this style but was going to put them as an option to her classic styles. I am completely satisfied and give her my highest ever review. Did I say she is sweet and beautiful inside and out the Vive was very holistic and peaceful. Very much painless

    I used to really love Debbie's work until she became so distracted with moving her office and…read moretravel that her work deteriorated. I saw her for a touch up of a camaflouge tattoo that I had really loved in the past. I couldn't see the white scar that I had from removing a mole. However, on my last visit over 1 year ago, I paid 150 for a touch up, then I looked in the mirror immediately after and told her that I was unhappy, that it looked like a cigarette burn. She told me it was my skin. That this happens over time. I asked her to remove it to which we made an appointment. When I showed up she told me she didn't have the light she needed to see and that I should go have this cut out by a plastic surgeon. I went to go see Dr. Elstrom, who then told me this was clearly a bad tattoo. He said it would look worse to cut it out. So I called Debbie and asked her to please remove the tattoo. She said she would but would need to charge me 250. I paid and had her do her work. Then I was left with a white spot and an even clearer black ring. She said she would no longer work with me as she couldn't make me happy. That led me to a further search to which I am so grateful! 2 weeks ago I went to see Emily with Camo Beauty and I am thrilled! Go to her page to see the final results. I didn't want to post them here as I didn't want any confusion as to who deserves the credit! Debbie, I am so disappointed in the work you did, and the poor advise you gave. Thankfully I didn't get this scar cut out per your suggestion, and thankfully there are true experts who care, not just milking the money, but have true expertise and a desire to fix whatever problem occurred! Save yourself the trouble and go see Emily @beautycamo https://www.yelp.com/biz/beautycamo-newport-beach You will notice in Debbie's reply to me that this photo was taken "before" my procedure with Emily, that is a lie. All you need to do is see Emily and you will see this cigarette burn looking scar which has been removed thanks to Emily. I spent 400. and a lot of time being dismissed by Debbie.
