Kathlyn is amazing! A true artist with genuine passion for her craft. I felt cared for and knew I was in great hands. My brows were thinning and causing me lots of insecurity. Kathlyn listened to my concerns and put so much care into providing a natural and complementary shape. Her technique is impeccable and listening to her journey into the PMU industry was inspiring! I'm glad I made this decision and trusted Kathlyn! read more

I've had ombre brows and lash line enhancement done by Kathlyn. My first time with her was right before the pandemic (2019), but people were still complimenting me on my brows up until I went to see her again in 2025! She's the only person I really trust with my brows. I did look for someone closer to me in Oakland, but at the end of the day, I still decided to go back to her and no regrets :) She's easy to talk to, willing to make decisions for me bc I'm indecisive (like for color), and always checks in to see how I'm doing pain-wise. Highly recommend :))) read more

Kat is an excellent person to work with. I had my lash lift and brow lamination done and I love it! My skin is prone to being dry, Kat did an amazing job and worked around my skin, she took her time and honestly I really love the results. I got so many compliments :) read more

Kathlyn is amazing, literally the best. I've went to her a couple of times over the past few years for touch ups and she makes my brows better and better every single time. My mom goes to her as well and she loves her brows too, they last for SO long. I will make the 2-hr trip from Elk Grove to SJ for her. She is so worth it. She's super sweet and funny too. She's so good at what she does, my brows are literally perfection. She definitely has the eye for brows and knows what looks good on each person. She's the only one I've ever let touch my brows and I'm going to keep it that way..lol read more

I AM SO INLOVE WITH MY BROWS AGAIN. I haven't gotten a retouch from Kat in almost 4 years because she's that good.... every client's brows are different and we retain the ink in our brows differently. I'm thankful that I chose to get them done by Kat. I can't trust anyone else! read more

Katlyn is amazing at her work. She takes her time to ensure that your eyebrows are perfectly drawn and shaped according to your preferences. Her knowledge and techniques are exceptional. Katlyn has the most delicate hands when it comes to tattooing eyebrows. I have been to a previous artist who made a mess of my eyebrows, but with Kat, I felt no discomfort. I highly recommend her services, and I'm confident that you will love the results. Trust me, your eyebrows will thank you for it. read more

This review is long over due. I have always wanted to get my eyebrows tattooed right when microblading hit the scene but I was scared that I would end up with a worse look than I started with. When my friend introduced me to Kathlyn, I made the jump and signed up for an appointment and couldn't be happier. (Please note she does "powder filled" brows not microblading) Kathlyn transformed my eyebrows from stumpy, weirdly square shaped nonsense to a very natural look for me. I do not wear make up but with my new brows + eyelash extensions, I feel so pretty now. I literally wake up and my face looks ready to go (ya know, minus the eye boogies and morning breath). Not only was her work amazing but Kathlyn as a person is super down to earth, hard working, kind, and will help guide you to the right shape for your face. I literally sat in her chair and said "shape me" because I've literally never done my brows before this (minus waxing and threading) and didn't know what I was looking for. Throughout the process she continuously checked up on me, added numbing cream when I showed discomfort, and gave me the best pep talk a girl could ask for. Honestly wish all the best for this lady. She deserves all of the support and clients she can get. I would highly recommend her and have already referred 2 friends her way. read more

Kathlyn perfected my brows like no other. she's super precise and always make sure that you are comfortable throughout the whole procedure. She is very friendly and very knowledgeable. My ombré powder brow looks fabulous and makes getting ready 10x easier in the morning. Highly recommended to see Kathlyn! read more

I got Ombré Powder Brows by Kathlyn, got a Perfecting Touch-up 6 months after the first session, then got an Annual Touch-up a year later. Kathlyn is friendly, gentle, and definitely knows what she's doing. I recommend going to her to get your eyebrows done! My brows are shaped up nicely, and I like how bold they are; you can also choose for a natural eyebrow look too. read more

I have always had trouble with my eyebrows & it took up so much of my time every morning! However, thanks to Kat, I no longer have to worry about my eyebrows every morning because they look good all the time! She is a perfectionist and will listen to what her client wants. She spends a lot of time drawing on your brows and making sure it is 100% what you want before proceeding to the tattoo process. She's professional and very friendly which makes it easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to tattoo their brows. She's good at what she does, affordable, & she makes you feel comfortable! What's more to ask?! read more

If you ever wanted perfect brows, this is the place to go, she always makes sure you are happy and gives you every reason to keep coming back. She is highly informative and will not be frustrated with all the asymmetrical issues you nitpick about. If you are looking for the best in eyebrow shading, look NO further than Kathlyn !! read more

Let me just say, "It was so hard to make a decision when it comes to a permanent one, but let me just say it was the BEST investment I've ever made!" Kathryn is so humble and knowledgeable at what she does. This girl hands down deserves more credit than words can describe. When I first met her the vibe insistently was there I was so comfortable she made me laugh and we had great conversations. Her room is filled with really cute decor. The process was not painful at all, she listens to what you want and than gives you her opinion while trying to achieve the look that your aiming for. If your looking for an eyebrow guru, look no further because Kathryn is your go to girl! I've been with her 4 times for all my touch ups. THANK YOU AGAIN BOO!! read more

I honestly wish I found Kat sooner! Her attention to detail is second to none and my sessions with her have been virtually painless. I came back a year after my first touch up and still had awesome retention. Judging by pictures of her clients, you can tell she has an eye for good brows...she's like a wizard with that pen. If you're looking for a brow artist, she's defffffinitely got the magic touch ;) read more

I had my brows done by Kathlyn a few months ago and they still look great. She was nice and professional and did great work. It's so nice to finally have brows that I don't have to fill in. read more

Love love LOVE this girl :) I've been interested in getting my eyebrows tatted for a little over a year now, and finding someone who I could trust with it has been quite the process. I was actually referred to Kathlyn by my friend and after a quick look at her IG portfolio I was hooked! When I reached out to her, I was unaware about the different techniques of eyebrow tattooing. "Microblading" is the latest trend/rageee all over social media so I just assumed that's what she did! Turns out, no, it's actually not! Kathlyn's method she uses to tatt brows is called the "ombre powder fill in." So essentially, she is able to make your brows look as if you had already filled them in with makeup perfectly as soon as you wake up outta bed. Amazing, right? She was very helpful in explaining to me the differences between microblading vs. powder fill-in. Microblading seems to be the technique that requires constant touching up every few months due to its technique of using individual strokes to create the look of natural brow hair. Kathlyn's technique is meant so that your brows could actually last up to 2 years with minimal to no touchup, who knows, maybe even more!! Making an appointment is as easy as pie, she's very easy to communicate with, prompt with her responses and schedules appts a month in advance. You send in a $50 "co-pay" to officially book the appt and you're set! The appointment itself can be nervewracking to some, which is understandable I mean...youre trusting the fate of your BROWS with someone tattooing them on you!! But fear not, Kathlyn's niche is definitely knowing how to do brows, no question. She will listen to your preferences, thick or thin? Arch or no arch? Light or dark? You choose! & she is also great at knowing which shape looks best with your face. The whole initial process took around 2 hours for me. This included drawing the brows, shaping, then doing the tattoo. With the touch up I received about 10 weeks later, the appointment took only about an hour or less! I couldnt be any more happier with my brows. They are currently still healing from my recent touchup, so I'll definitely post a update pic when theyre fully healed!! (Healing takes me a little bit over a week or so) I recommend her to absolutely everyone. Taking my mom to get hers done in a few weeks for Mother's day! read more

Prior to discovering Kathlyn, I've gone to two different permanent makeup artists for my eyebrows and Kathlyn is by far the best artist bar none. Both the color and shape were fantastic, but most importantly her work lasted the longest. I have oily skin, so the color tends to fade more quickly but even after a year I can still go out without putting makeup on my brows. I've gone to a very well known artist for permanent makeup before and while she was also great, the color faded very quickly. Also, I don't know what Kathlyn uses but her technique is the LEAST painful compared to my past experiences. There's barely any pain at all, to be honest. If you're unsure about booking, trust me - do it! Getting ready in the mornings will be so much more quicker and you can do water activities without worrying about your eyebrows disappearing :) read more

I went to her after seeing some of her work and following her on IG. I had previous shading by another artist but she was able to work with my existing work. She was very easy to talk to and took my opinion as well as her own measurements. Great work!! read more

I love her work! The shape of my eyebrows are so nicely shaped with my face. She gives you a hundred percent of her time, when it's your appointment. She's so funny and so sweet! I also came back to her for eyelashes and the results amazed me. She truly is talented! Love, love, love her work! read more

When it comes to your brows and lashes you have to go to someone you can trust and Kat is definitely that someone! I've had my brows done before from another person and i wasn't satisfied, so I decided it was time to get them done again. You won't regret choosing her because you'll get plenty of compliments and you wake up every morning with fleek brows! Already seeing by Kat's instagram you can tell her work is really good! She really listens to what you want, so don't hesitate to speak up. Although you walk around with dark brows for a week it's well worth it after you see the results. I got them done in the beginning of the year and they still look amazing :) read more

I'm so lucky to have found someone to fix up my old tattooed brows!!! I've been waiting to get my brows redone for so long. My brow experience with her was perfect and I've been getting so many compliments from everyone! Feels great waking up and just slapping on mascara and not even have to worry about my brows!! When I first got there she made me feel so welcomed! And sat me down for a consultation and explained every step of the process! She took her time drawing out my brows and erasing it, making sure I was happy with the shape! Once I was happy with the shape of my brows we continued with the process! She's really aware of the pain and applied numbing cream & during the process she would stop to ask me if I was ok. If not she would reapply more numbing cream. I LOVE her & and work!! She gave me a print out of my after care and after care ointment! I love her so much I referred my whole family to her and everyone LOVES HER!!! Highly recommend and very reasonable pricing! read more

Absolutely love brows by Kathlyn! From the very beginning I texted her and my touch up. She made me very comfortable. During my session, she made sure I am comfortable. Although, it did hurt since I never got anything done before besides piercings. She did numb me which helped a lot. I can't stand laying there with something poking me, but she made me comfortable. She also knows what will look good with your face. If there was a problem, she's very easy to text and really good at getting back to you as soon as possible. She is hands down thee QUEEN of eye brow girl ever!!! Sadly, I am moving across state but I will be back for my touch up. I can't and won't let anyone touch my brows unless it's with her. I started with her and won't be going with anyone else. Good thing my family lives here, makes it better reason to come back to California. Thank you Brows by Kathlyn! I will be back! read more

This girl is GIFTED when it comes to eyebrow shape. When I found her on Instagram initially (@beeohbeee), I wasn't even considering having my brows done. After seeing her work I immediately changed my mind. I messaged her and she was quick to respond and extremely sweet. The procedure itself is fairly uncomfortable, but well worth it in the end. I had mine done a week ago and I absolutely love them. I can't wait to go back for my touch up in 6 weeks. They look harsh and dark immediately after but once they peel they look so soft and natural. I love waking up with killer brows. Thanks Kathlyn!! read more

I followed Kathlyn on IG for several months before I decided to make an appointment because I wanted to make sure I chose the right person for the job. I could not be happier with the outcome. She did an EXCELLENT job! Not only is she skilled, but she is a total sweetheart. I get compliments on my eyebrows all the time and it's all thanks to her. read more

Kathlyn is an artist and she's amazing! I love my brows and they're identical twins she is truly talented and is informative. I truly enjoyed the brow experience and would definitely recommend to all! Book now read more

Kathlyn did my brows on 05/12/17 and I'm so glad she did! I'd been following her on Instagram for some time and liked her work a lot, so I contacted her and she responded promptly. With a $50 deposit, I was able to book an appointment for just a few weeks later! When I arrived for my appointment, she introduced herself and had me fill out some papers, then began shaping my brows to my desired shape. I really appreciate how she took her time to make sure they were exactly how I wanted them. (I'm sooo picky!) After shaping them, she outlined them and applied numbing cream, then filled it in using her ombré technique. The whole process took about an hour and a half and hurt a little bit here and there, but she checked in with me throughout the entire procedure making sure I was okay and offering more numbing cream. She is genuinely such a sweet person and very easy to talk to! I fell in love with my brows immediately afterwards and am loving them even more now that the swelling has gone down and they're peeling and fading to a more natural color. For $400 in total (including a touch-up session) I'd say it's one of my best investments since I can sleep in longer and not have to worry about doing them every morning! :) I highly recommend Kathlyn if you want bomb brows!!! read more

If your looking for beautifully shaped brows, this is def the spot to go! I saw Kathlyn's work when I was browsing through Instagram and instantly fell in love with her work. My original eyebrow tattoo from another artist was uneven and I was worried it would be permanent. Kathlyn took a look and said she would be able to correct it, no problem. Once we were finished I was so happy to see my eyebrows were finally even! No more crazy hours trying to make them even. Kathlyn was warm and welcoming the entire process and I would highly recommend her to everyone! read more

I LOVE Kat's work!! I've had previous brows done by someone else and I was completely unhappy with it. Kat was able to cover it and worked with me to find the best shape. Kat did it last year and I still get compliments on it. I've had the first session done, which was a bit on the painful side because I'm really sensitive. She used a numbing cream which works but I needed more through out the first session. With the second session, it wasn't as bad. She made my brows darker at my request. If you get a chance to check out her work on IG @beeohbee, you won't regret it! read more

Kat listens to exactly what you want & will take her time to draw out the perfect shape that suits your face. My eyebrows were naturally asymmetrical & she fixed that for me. I really like the ombré powder technique she uses. I highly recommend this technique over micro-blading. It's been months since I've gotten my brows done by Kat & they still look great! The ombré technique lasts a lot longer than micro-blading & they look so much better once healed. The whole process only took about 2 hours. I love waking up & having eyebrows! It saves me so much time getting ready. I highly recommend her she's the best in the Bay Area ! Just check out her work & see for yourself. read more

Beeohbeee is great! I loved how precise she is with measurements and tells you the trust if something doesn't look right. She's super nice and does amazing work! I love my new set of brows that I never had!!!! read more

First off I wanna say that I trust this woman 100%, she will let you know what looks good or bad on you and so when it came down to doing my brows, I knew that I could trust her completely for my semipermanent brows. She starts off drawing out your brows so you can get a feel of what they will look like and you can tell her exactly the way you want them ranging from arched to whatever the heck you want! At least she listens to what you want rather than doing the same thing on everyone. The whole process lasts about 2-3 hours depending on your tolerance for pain but honestly I don't think it hurts that much but she does put on numbing cream for you. She lets you know ahead of time that your tattooed eyebrows will shrink about 40% in size and the color will fade as well, but this applies to any tattoo that you get! I used to go to another lady to get my eyebrows done but hers would only last about a week tops. For the money you pay here it's definitely worth it as your brows are suppose to last a couple of years, yes, YEARS!!! After your initial eyebrow appointment she does make a follow up appointment for touch ups as well! It's been a few months and my brows are still there and I couldn't be any happier With the way they turned out! read more
