I have been getting my lashes done for a few years now and I can definitely vouch for how amazingly talented is Katie! I've been to a few others before and sometimes I think finding the best fit lash artist is like Cinderella and her glass slipper...you gotta try a few until you find the best fit! Let me tell you exactly how I've come to fall completely in love with her work: 1) Perfectionist! Katie does spend time on her volume sets but that's because she is literally making absolutely perfect fans on every single one of your lashes. How do I know? Because as my lashes grow out and naturally shed, I'll find one on my counter sink in PERFECT fan, not clumped together, not 3-4 lashes with globs on glue at the base. They are perfectly spaced lash fans that create beautiful wispy volume. I would rather lay there for two hours with PERFECTLY fanned out volume lashes than have a rushed one hour session with clumps. 2) Genuine and Real! Katie is honest and isn't trying to just make a fast buck with shoddy work. When I came to see her after not being able to be scheduled with my previous lash girl, she very honestly told me that she needed to remove the previous work and let my lashes grow back a bit. She could've easily just removed my previous set and put a new set on, but after removal, she saw that I had some natural lashes that needed to grow a bit more (apparently they might've been pulled out in a chunk due to glue clumping from my previous artist's work). She wanted what was best for my lashes and not what was best for her pocket! 3) Caring! She cares about the health of your natural lashes and wants you to be able to enjoy lash extensions for a long time. She educates you on your natural lash growth circle and lash care and because she is so meticulous in her careful placement of every full lash fan, my lashes really DO get healthier! 4) Lastly, TALENTED AF! She knows that I have thin but long natural Asian lashes and that a D curl is not going to work with my small Asian double lid. She knew to use a C curl, she knew to use thinner but more lashes versus thicker and less, she knew what length would work with my eye shape! She customizes it to fit your look. I even referred my girl friend to her who is also Asian but has different shaped eyes than me and I could tell she did a slightly different style and it looked amazing on her. Oh wait sorry and one more 5) did I mention her lashes lasted ALL MONTH? I used to get my lashes filled every two WEEKS with all my previous lash artists. I don't know how she does it, but they still looked good a MONTH later when I came back in for a new set. You know what that means? Better for my wallet! Katie is in it for quality lashes, customized looks and longevity of your natural lashes! Anyway, I've found the Cinderella to my glass slipper. I've enjoyed the lashes of my past but I think Katie fits me the best and I'm done searching!!! read more

I got my eye lashes done a week ago by Lavish Kay (Katie) and she did an amazing job! My lashes look so natural and they feel light as a feather. Most of all, no eye irritation at all! She is a sweetheart and extremely professional, I will be seeing her on-going for my beautiful lashes. read more

I was hesitant about getting lashes--I wanted them for a long time but was concerned about my eye sensitivity. I was assured that they could be maintained with some simple guidance. We discussed my needs (ready to go vs special occasion), I closed my eyes and saw the transformation when I opened my eyes...exceeded my expectations! The whole experience was excellent--easy booking, quick response, comfortable atmosphere, relaxing application. Highly recommend! read more

I've been looking for a lash artist for over a year and came across Katie because my mother in law used to go to her. I'm so happy I found her because she does an amazing job. Before I met Katie I have gone to 3 lash artist before I went to her and they all had my lashes falling out and damaging my natural lashes, but with Katie she is very particular on lash health. She asked me to send her pictures of my lashes to see if they would be even healthy enough to hold lashes before she even decided to put lashes on me. I'm glad she recommended me to wait until my lashes were healthy enough. Now I'm hooked and my lashes are so beautiful and healthy. I would definitely recommend Katie to all my friends and family! read more

Katie is one of the only people I trust holding objects so close to my eyes. I've gotten lashes done from her two times, and both times I could not have asked for anything better. She is so skilled and knowledgeable, and also so accommodating with your schedule. It's clear that she values her clients and only does the best for them. Her home space is also beautiful. It's spacious and clean, and the chair is so comfy that I've definitely dozed off the first time I went. And if you're a talker, the time absolutely just flies by. My lashes look just enhanced enough that they don't look crazy or furry. Instead; they're elegant and wispy, which is exactly what I was hoping for. Could not ask for any better! read more

I contacted Katie about getting my lashes done for my wedding, she was very helpful and knew just the look I wanted. I went for a classic look as I have never worn lashes and hardly ever wear makeup. After getting them done they look so natural and beautiful, I've had so many people think they were my actual lashes not extensions. Thank you for making my experience amazing, I'll definitely be back!! read more

Honestly, hands down. The best eyelash extensions in the bay. I came in for my eyelash extension appt and didn't know what to expect as it was my first time getting extensions. Katie answered every question and concerns I had. Her answers were very detailed and she assured that my lashes were going to be fabulous. She was full of energy which made me feel comfortable. It took about two hours to do a full lash service. By the end of the session, I fell in love with my lashes.. My lashes were full, whisky, and it didn't feel like I was wearing extensions. She's the best! Thanks Katie! read more

WOW!!! If you are searching for who can give you the most incredible eyelash extensions around, look no further! Katies is absolutely incredible and is beyond skilled when it comes to extensions. She is so friendly and will make you feel completely at home as soon as you arrive. Next thing you know, you will feel like you have known her for years, unless you fall asleep in her chair which feels so comfortable you would swear you were floating on a cloud, seriously! I promise you, you will not regret it, shes the BEST!!! read more

Katie is absolutely AMAZING!!!! I've been getting lashes for over 5 years and this has been one of the best! I got the hybrid lashes and felt that it was enough. It was quite voluminous and so very soft!! What made the experience even better was the great conversation! I would totally go back next time I'm in town. read more

These are the best lashes I've ever had. They are full, voluminous, and light (not heavy on your eyelid). They last for a very long time and I don't notice them constantly dangling in front of my eye or landing on my cheek, like I used to with other eyelash extension places. I used to go for cheaper and quicker lashes elsewhere but after I found Katie at Lavish Kay, I'll never go back. The cheaper and quicker lashes are also harsher on your natural eyelashes, damaging them so that extensions eventually won't stick or there won't be enough lash to stick false ones to. I noticed that at the cheaper and quicker places- I was having to schedule fills quicker and that was because my natural eyelashes were damaged from their heavy lashes and lack of knowledge. And the price really isn't any more expensive because going every week or 2 weeks vs. every 3 weeks (at LavishKay) and having healthier, fuller, and longer-lasting lashes is WAY worth it! (Like when I go back for my 3 week fill, my lashes still look good and full and I still get compliments as if they were recently done!) Katie is so super knowledgeable about lashes! She will take her time and do what's best for your lashes to look gorgeous now but she is also looking out for their health in the future! I always get so many compliments from these big full lashes and they feel light on my eyelid and don't feel irritating or prickly from dried glue. She is very gentle and delicate and I don't feel any pinching or pulling. Katie is a perfectionist and isn't trying to cram as many clients in a day to meet a quota. She does this from her home by choice. She wants to do a good job and wants to do what is best for the health of your lashes. I trust Katie with my lashes and am switching my Microblading touch up to be done by her too! Her house is nice and she's easy to schedule with. She likes to schedule out in advance, which I prefer too, to help me stay on track. The room is private and has a big leather reclining chair. She is fine if you don't want to chat and I'll put my audiobook on my headphones and listen (and sometimes fall asleep ). Overall, the experience is relaxing, I feel safe, I trust her with my lashes, and I feel happy and satisfied with my purchase and service provided. I won't go anywhere else for my lashes! read more

Katie did such a wonderful job with my lashes. I had volume 4D done right before my 2 week vacation to Bali. I'm so surprised that these extensions survived through all of my activities! I was always in bodies of water (jumping off cliffs into rivers, waterfalls, snorkeling in the ocean, and swimming in chlorinated swimming pools), went to many hikes, and constantly sweating in Bali due to the humidity. I got my lashes done on 9/6. I'm writing this review on 9/25 and I still have Soo may lashes left despite my strenous activities! I've been to many lash technicians and Katie's lashes are by far the most resilient to falling off. My friend actually had her lashes done with a different salon and hers kept falling off during our trip while mine stayed intact. Definitely try Katie out! She will take her time to talk about the lash extensions and she's super easy to talk to. read more

I got my lashes done for the first time ever by Katie today and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. When I first got there she walked me through the whole process so I was already confident that she was going to do an amazing job. She did my lashes EXACTLY like what I asked for and I'm obsessed with them!! Katie was so personable and made my first lash experience so comfortable and amazing. 10/10 recommend:) read more

I'd recently relocated and needed a new lash tech in my area. I found Kay on Yelp and reached out. Quick response. She has a cute little home studio in a beautiful neighborhood. She's very professional and easy to talk to. She removed my old set and applied a new set and surprisingly my eyes didn't burn like some applications. They didn't get bright red either. She was very gentle. read more

Thank you thank you!! true magic at work by an artist well versed in and extensively knowledge about her beauty craft.

Loveeeee my lashes! I've been seeing Katie for a couple years now and can't say how much I appreciate her knowledge when it comes to lashes. It takes a really great specialist to not just do good lashes, but have proper application with out irritation, good retention, all while keeping up with HEALTHY growth of your natural lashes. I always leave with fluffy, beautiful lashes. She's also very personable and such a sweet heart! You won't regret seeing her. read more

By far the best lashes I've ever had after 8 years. Kay is super professional, thorough, and delightful . My lashes hold up extremely well , through swimming , sweating, and humidity . read more

Whether you are in the SF Bay Area or in the DFW area, Katie is the most incredible lash artist that you will come across! Her years of training and teaching in this field are incredibly apparent in the quality of her application. Katie strives for excellence in all that she does! Here is a few qualities that puts her at a level well beyond her peers: Katie is dedicated to perfection in every set of lashes she creates. Based on your eye shape, eye size and the look of lashes that you are desiring, she will take the extra time to make sure you leave with the exact look you were attempting to achieve! Her attention to detail is far superior than any other lash artist I've come across. She even takes the extra time to separate the lashes before applying them to give you extra volume! Compared to my previous experiences, I leave with much fuller looking lashes that are not nearly as heavy on my eyes/lash line, which also better protects your natural lashes. Katie listens to all the little details and is able to create exactly the look you are seeking! Whether it's the length, amount of volume or amount of curl, everything I expressed to her via words and pictures she was able to achieve on my lashes. Additionally, Katie is the most honest and genuine lash artist I've ever come across! When you arrive, she will evaluate the condition of your natural lashes. Rather than just applying a whole new set of lashes and taking your money, she is most concerned with the health of your natural lashes! In fact, she recommends every few months that my lashes need a break for three weeks so that she can then create a fresh, perfect new set of lashes once my lashes have had time to grow. Not only is the most educated lash artist I've ever come across, but she is committed to educating all of her clients about their eye lashes! She will explain during the application process the three stages of lash growth, how to properly care for the lash extensions and about the heath of the eyes. She even applies eye drops before each application to prevent redness and irritation which can come from the fumes of the lash glue. Moreover, Katie is incredibly talented and can maximize the appearance of your personal features based on her lash application. At first she applied the lashes exactly how I explained and I was very impressed. However, over time I realized her capabilities were phenomenal and I entrusted her to do what she believed would look best on me. Thank goodness I made that choice, as she created lashes that enhanced the shape of my eyes like I thought only eye makeup could do! In fact, I rarely wear eye makeup now and I continually get compliments on my lashes. Finally, Katie's facility is beautiful and very sanitary! She always plays relaxing music and I tend to fall asleep in the special reclining chair while getting my lashes done. The ambient setting is so peaceful but I can't help but notice the wall filled with lash courses, classes, evaluations shes recently completed, and she's always just a call, email or text away for her students as well. Overall, Katie is by far and away the BEST lash artist I've ever come across and I'm so thankful for her incredible work and for her positive impact on the overall health of my lashes. read more

I LOVE LOVE my lashes!! I have been going to Kay for over a year now and she has always done a spectacular job on my lashes. I get so many compliments. Kay has been so flexible and accommodating to my work schedule. She has literally seen me before 7am! I stopped getting lash extensions after 5 years before because of the hassle, the cost, upkeep and having sparse lashes waiting to get to my next appointment. I found Kay on Yelp and immediately knew I was gaining a higher quality and exclusive experience. I go every 3 weeks with same cost so no surprises. I can honestly say I have never felt like my lashes are bare or scant once since going to Kay. I highly recommend. read more

I just started getting lash extensions and I couldn't be happier that I chose LavishKay. Katie is very knowledgeable and takes her time to be sure they are done correctly. She's also careful to not damage your natural lashes. My lashes look great and aren't heavy or uncomfortable. read more

Katie is amazing!!! I get SO many compliments about my lashes. I have been coming to her for almost 2 years now, and I LOVE her work! She is professional, and knows how to keep your lashes healthy. I definitely recommend her! I found her before I got married (1 yr into the pandemic), and didn't know where to go as most places were closed. I was nervous to get my lashes done with someone during the pandemic, but I felt safe with her, every step of the process! What was suppose to be a one time thing, for a special event, has now turned into a monthly ritual! I had my lashes done before at one of the big lash bars, and was never satisfied, but this changed when I found Katie! You can tell that she loves what she does, you can see it in her work, it makes a difference!!! read more

Such an artist with lashes and focuses on the fine details that make your eyes look big depending on your specific shape. No cookie cutter style here. Very clean and the upmost concern for clients safety during covid with strict sanitizing and wearing masks. I've never had lash extensions that were so comfortable that I can't even feel them before! Also they last so much longer on me despite oily skin and sensitive eyes. Highly recommend, you won't regret it!! read more

Absolutely amazing. This was my very first time getting lashes and I had no idea what to expect. Katie was very patient, kind and gentle. She explained the process and made sure I was always comfortable. What a great experience! I did not expect my lashes to look this good at 2 to 2.5 weeks+ but it just shows the kind of expertise Katie puts into her work. Also she will tell you if your lashes need a break and how to properly care for them. Katie is a true lash artist in every sense and I am so glad I found her. Thank you!! read more

Since my initial review, Yelp has removed my updated posts. I had contact with Katie after my first appointment and she was harassing me for writing the negative review about her business. She texted me constantly and offering me things to remove my review which me very uncomfortable. I hope Yelp doesn't remove my UPDATED REVIEW SINCE I HAVE NEW INFORMATION ABOUT THE BUSINESS. Ridiculous! read more

I always wanted to get eyelash extensions but saw so many mixed reviews. I originally wanted to get it done at TOP hair and Nails, but the girls service wasn't that great so I was thrown off. Plus my friend got hers done and it didn't look so impressive. I saw of my my client post on Facebook a before and after of Katie's work. 1st I was drawn to the Mother's Day special of 49$. Second my client told me she spends two hours! And third and lastly she uses the mink novalashes. I contacted her right away and made an appointment. Being the excited person I am I referred 4 people to Katie before myself going. I'm not the type to refer, cause I'm very picky and won't just go to anyone. When I checked up with them, they all loved it so much. The day of my appointment, I came into the nicely decorated place and Katie started. I told her I want the most dramatic lashes she can give me. After 2.5 hours I was in love. They looked so good and made my eyes look so big. I fell more in love when I woke up the next day, took a shower looked at myself and was in awe. It took me only 5 mins to get ready. I recommend Katie for her professionalism, skill and sweet sweet personality. Come get get your lashes done. She's booked fast. I refer all my clients to her. Thank you Katie! I'll be back for refill in 3 weeks. read more

I have wanted to get lash extensions for a long time but have been hesitant not only because of the cost, but also scared I would not find a good place to go. Well after a lot of research, I found LavishKay and I am SO glad I did! My first set of lashes were more than I could have ever wished for. I am so happy with them and Katie was fantastic about explaining everything beforehand and talking me through it all. The process was so easy and the time went by so fast. And the final result was AMAZING! I will definitely recommend her to friends. I am hooked now, for sure! read more

Thank you, Katie, for my long beautiful lashes! I was referred to her by my friend and hair stylist, Lily D. Katie has a wide array of different lashes to suit you. I wanted a mix between natural and dramatic lashes and she delivered! It was easy to make an appointment with Katie via text. The session took about two hours. It was long, but Katie is super friendly and easy to talk to. At one point, I fell asleep for a few minutes, which was encouraged by Katie -makes it easier for her to work! They looked wonderful and have taken much longer to fall out than other extensions that I've tried. Katie followed up a few days later with care tips. They are still looking pretty good. A couple of twisting out of place, but that is expected. I have a fill session coming up soon. I can't wait! read more

I've gotten my lashes done by Katie a few times now. I love love them... Service: Got the classic full mascara look. This was not so dramatic, but it's the look I was going for. I'm an active spur of the moment kinda person & I needed something that was versatile enough to be worn out & about on a regular, but allowed me to be lash ready when it was time for those summer night out. The experience: Katie made my very first lash experience so pleasant. When she told me I'd be falling asleep during the process I was thinking, "no way!". But about couple hrs later she woke me up, she was done. I've already referred her to a couple of friends they have been also ecstatic over their own lashes. read more

Best lashes look so natural. I get compliments nonstop. Kay is one of a kind funny and amazing at what she does!! Thank you Kay

Beware you will get addicted!!! Amazing work every time!!! I found Katie on Instagram... And you could tell in the pictures the amount of attention-to-detail she puts into her work.... I have compared her work to people who has paid $30 for their "eyelash extensions " and they NEVER could compare so do expect to pay for what you get! She doesn't haggle you or push you to come back especially if your lashes still look good. She encourages you to take breaks in between to promote healthy growth to your own lashes. She is absolutely sweet and very easy to talk to although I fall asleep usually half an hour into the session. I just can't help it, her set up is super comfortable; from the decor to just the ambiance... Your appointment is 2 hours for a full set and a refill is about 1 hour and a half and she will take up that entire time... read more

This review is long overdue! It was my first time getting my lashes done and Katie made me at ease with the whole experience. Katie is SUPER sweet, professional, and passionate about her work. She explained every detail and process and made sure I was comfortable with everything. I fell in love with my lashes and it suddenly became an addiction and I continued coming back for refills. She works in the comfort on her own home. Her set up was really cute, clean and relaxing. My sessions were usually about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Props to Katie for taking her time. It reflects how much patience she has to make sure every lash was perfect and beautiful. Whenever I open my eyes and look at the mirror, I am always amazed at how it makes my eyes appear brighter. I fall in love with my lashes everytime. It saved me SO much time getting ready, especially every morning for work. There was no need for mascara or eyeliner. All I had to do was my face makeup and eyebrows and I'm out the door. After the process, Katie will give you instructions on how to care for your lashes. I am surprised at how they still look good after a week. My lashes usually last me 3+ weeks. After seeing so much disasters and bad experiences (damages to your real lashes causing it to fall off) at other places, I don't think I can trust anyone else. Give her a try, you're in good hands! Thank you Katie for giving me such a great experience with my lashes and I can't wait to come back to continue my new addiction! read more

Highly recommend! I found LavishKay through Yelp when I moved to Mckinney last year and I'm so glad I did! I'm not a fan of chain lash salons. My experience has been that independent professionals offer better quality lashes, glue, and service and Katie scores at the top in all three categories. She does a fantastic job and cares about the health of my lashes as well as the quality of results. The LavishKay space is super clean, relaxing, and convenient to McKinney and Allen. I feel like a valued client and always get compliments on my lashes. They look great, hold up well, and are high quality. Plus Katie is a delightful person :) Don't be tempted by the lower price of chain lash salons - you get what you pay for and LavishKay is worth every penny. read more

I had my lashes done by Jazzmin. She does such an amazing job and she truly knows what she is doing. I have gotten so much compliments on my lashes. Sometimes I even forget I have eyelash extensions on because they feel so lightweight and natural. Ever since my first appointment with her back in November I fell in love with her work and having been coming back for fills every few weeks. At each appointment she makes me feel very comfortable and relaxed that I actually fall asleep. She definitely brings my lashes to life with each visit. Jazzmin really cares about her clients and will walk through each step of the process. She is the one and I highly recommend her for your eyelash needs! read more

Katie is a lash queen. Out of all the lash artists I have been to over the last ten years she has been the absolute best. She is meticulous and extremely careful at her work, she never rushes through either and takes her time to make sure you leave with full beautiful looking lashes. And the best part is the retention of the lash extensions. My lashes look So good after 6 weeks with little fall out. She is an expert at her craft and I glad I found a lash artist who focuses on quality. read more

Katie is definitely the best I have ever been to for lash extensions. I've been a client of hers for over 3 years.

Let me just start by saying that I'm super fussy and I won't go to anyone else but Katie...she's hands down the BEST!! I tried a couple other places before I found Katie on Yelp a year ago and I definitely got what I paid for...cheap lashes that didn't last long and made my own lashes weak, weighed down and fall out in patches! She's a perfectionist and it shows in the quality of her work. I get stopped constantly about my lashes and people ask if they're mine....to which I respond "yes...I paid for them!" Katie is super clean, professional and reliable. I love how quickly I can get ready in the morning since I don't have to mess around with mascara anymore...it's a game changer! She taught me how to properly care for my lash extensions and it also helps keep my own lashes healthy. If you're looking for the best lash tech in town...look no further!
