Two of the worst lash experiences I have ever had! I have been wearing lash extensions from classic…read moreto mega consistently for the past 13 years and my 2 sessions here were the worst I have ever experienced. Waaaay too much glue was used so during the application, Meghan had to repeatedly pull apart the lashes after she applied them. A good portion of the fill was her pulling apart the glue. Ouch!!! Lashes were also glued to my skin and many were clumped together with glue at the base of the lash. I had to try and break apart the clumps at home. When I went back to FL for a fill, my tech couldn't even separate the clumps and had to have me soak all the lashes off and start over. The botched fill by Meghan cost me $350 to correct. I gave her another shot (thinking maybe my cleanser was the issue) but had the same result. Roughly 5-8 fans fell off when I got in the car. Over two days, the majority of the new fill fell out but the remainder was clumped, twisted and just not pretty. Again, went back to FL to a different salon to correct the issue and she said the same thing: faulty application, way too much glue and not separating the lashes when placing them. She also had a very difficult time doing a fill because of the excessive amount of glue used. Said it looked like the tech learned incorrectly. Save yourself the pain, headache and money and go somewhere else. Two tries and two different independent evaluations prove the point. (Look at some of the posted "before/after" photos here. That is NOT what proper application looks like!) Ps: I called Meghan to let her know and she didn't want to hear it. Too bad. We shud all be willing to learn from our mistakes.

We got hot shoulder compresses and the full work up on our pedicures. The staff were super sweet! The only thing that I was disappointed about was that I called ahead and made appointments for us, but still ended up waiting over 30 minutes for our service to start because they took a couple walk ins a few minute before we got there. Other than that, I'd be willing to give them another try the next time I'm in town.

I went to 2 other microblading school programs that were only two days long. Although the different…read moreschools provided two days of learning, unfortunately, this was not enough for me (most schools offer a two-day training). Honestly, it didn't prepare me to have confidence in starting to perform procedures on people's faces. It's my art, and I want to show the world that I am skillful and educated. I have HIGH standards!! Gina Maya's permanent makeup school offered a five-day course program. This five-day program is almost the same as the 5-day program requirement in New Jersey, which has the highest standard in permanent makeup education in the USA. She helped me enhance my skills and increase my level of education about PMU. Some schools take your money! So beware. Ask the other schools if they are dual-licensed. Gina is licensed by the Illinois State Board of Education to teach as well as licensed by the Illinois Department of Public Health. What are some of the things you get with Gina? She discusses color theory, machines, anesthetics, skin types, your client's health history, skin conditions, and different options to provide permanent makeup. You will learn microblading, shading, and hand tapping. It's a lot!! The best part was Gina allowed her students to retake the theoretical portion of the courses that a student needed a refresher with at no additional cost. You have to let her know you want to relearn or do a refresher. She will allow you to do your model's touch-up skills portion, which is usually not the case with other PMU schools. As a student of Gina, you have the opportunity to start your business in her classroom and rent a bed/space from her daily or monthly to get your business started as long as it doesn't interfere with the courses she provided. I thought this was a fantastic opportunity for anyone who may not have a space in their own home or isn't ready to rent their own space. However, if you decide not to rent a bed from her, as her student, she provides support and assistance through voice message, text message, or phone calls. She may not respond immediately because she's teaching, but if you text her 911 or call her because you have an actual lousy situation, she will stop the course to review your case and help you. If you need additional help, talk to Gina, and she will work on a mentorship plan with you. Just ask her, and she will find a way to make it work for you both! Gina's support goes above, and beyond the average first two microblading courses I have taken. I am so happy someone from a Facebook group recommended her to me. She is a highly dependable instructor. She is a real support system in this very independent industry. She continues to help me to keep going. I finally opened my own business for permanent makeup. Gina is REALLY CARING! She really wants you to be successful! I have said so much already, but do not hesitate to reach me if you have any questions about my experience. I'll be happy to jump on a call to personally recommend Gina's school to you for your PMU learning needs. Thank you for everything, Gina!
