I have been wanting to get my (sadly lacking) eyebrows done for quite some time. After doing some research, I decided I was interested in a powder brow. I looked for a professional in my area, and started to follow Katrina's Instagram account. I liked that she educated her followers on their options, and that she was an experienced professional. I booked a consult in December, had my appointment in February and finally was able to go (Thx COVID) for my second appointment today. If you are on the fence about getting your brows done, and where to go, look no further. You've found your girl! My only regret is that I didn't go sooner. I don't wear a lot of makeup, and wanted a natural look. Katrina nailed it! read more

Truly beautiful work! I've wanted my brows done for years but have always been nervous so never did it. After seeing Katrina's work on a friends brows, and seeing the before and after photos on her IG business page, I contacted Her with questions and she gave me the low down on powder vs microblading. She's very knowledgeable and her work speaks for itself! My brows went from frumpy to perfection! As a busy Mama, having this done has been a game changer...No more drawing my brows on! read more

I did a lot of research about this process and it took me three years to finally commit. Katrina is my eyebrow angel. Her technique is amazing. She is so sweet and comforting, and really takes her time. Her work speaks for itself. Thanks to her I feel more confident and I get a ton of compliments on my brows. "Your brows are on fleek" I can't thank her enough. Best decision I ever made. Love my eyebrows and I highly recommend going to her. I can't thank you enough Katrina! read more

Extremely pleasant experience. I am so happy with my results and I felt so so comfortable from beginning to end. Amazing!

Wonderful experience with Katrina. She is a meticulous and professional artist who does amazing work!

I love my brows. Katrina is awesome! From start to finish she explained everything and made sure I was 100% happy with them before I left. I've received so many compliments on them. Thank you Katrina. read more

I was very nervous about getting permanent eyeliner. As I get older it's harder to see to draw on my own properly. I researched and also got 2 personal positive reviews about Katrina. I called her for a complimentary consultation and she patiently answered ALL my questions. When I met her and saw her space I felt very comfortable with the cleanliness and professionalism I experienced. My eyeliner came out perfect, very natural looking, just the way I wanted. In about 6 weeksI went back for the customary touch up Katrina offers as part of her service at no extra cost. Now I'm complete and very happy. Only regrets I won't see her again for a long time, usually around 2 years I'm told. It was a pleasure meeting Katrina and chatting with her, and most important, I LOVE my natural looking eyeliner. My life is so much simpler now. I highly recommend Lift & Katrina. read more

I just went back to get my powder brow touch up with Katrina and let me just say that she is hands down one of the most professional and talented, brow artists around... not to mention the sweetest!!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE my brows! I met Katrina a year ago. She came highly recommended by my hairstylist. I went to her very wary because the previous girl that had microbladed my brows had really messed them up. Wrong shape. Wrong color. Just all around disappointment:(. Katrina sat me down, went over her procedure, why she uses the tools and pigments that she does and basically put me at ease with her extensive knowledge of her craft. Fast forward a year to today and I honestly couldn't be happier!!! I trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone, for sure! Check her out! You will not be disappointed. Her knowledge of her craft is unparalleled!!! read more

I've been wanting to do microblading for years since I've been blessed bad eyebrow genetics. So, when I heard about this technique about 5 years ago I was always very curious about it. I put it off for so long since I have very sensitive skin on my face and always feared the pain and healing process. Plus, It's your face! So I wanted to wait until I found the right person to do this. Luckily, I found Katrina through a friend. After spending too much money on MAC eyebrow pencils for a few years I finally messaged her on instagram and made an appointment. I was nervous of course when I showed up but she made me feel very calm and comfortable. She took her time with the outline making sure it was perfect and I was happy with the shape. I have to be honest.. it was a bit painful for me at times (again, sensitive skin over here!) but Katrina did a great job checking in with me and I didn't feel at all intimidated to tell her I was feeling some discomfort. I am so happy with the results. It's only been 6 days since I've gotten it done and the healing process has been way easier than I thought it would be. She gives you all the tools you need after your appointment to make sure your eyebrows heal the very best. I would definitely recommend Katrina's services to any of my close friends. Also, her pricing is incredibly reasonable for the quality of work she does. read more

I can 100% recommend Lift Permanent Makeup! Katrina is extremely professional from start to finish. She does a great job at communication, so you always feel comfortable before, during and after your appointment. Her studio is beautifully done and gives a relaxing spa and clean vibe all together. She takes her time and explains every step. I also really felt like she listened to my concerns and addressed them all. Most importantly she is truly an artist and expert- exactly what you need when doing permanent makeup.  She was able to skillfully apply my powder brows, getting the most precise shape and perfect color.  Katrina has such a gentle touch and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. Afterwards she gives you a great little bag full of aftercare instructions and personalized kit. She even sent a sweet message checking up on me after. I am very happy with my results, I've received so many compliments. Definitely 5  PLUS stars and would recommend read more

Katrina is beyond professional and detailed in her craft. She really made sure I was happy with my look and was super sweet and my eyebrows are on point! I'm so happy with how they turned out. She repaired a previous micro blading job! Would recommend her highly. She has a customer for life! read more

Katrina is absolutely amazing!!! People are constantly asking me what makeup I use, they are shocked when I tell them its a tattoo! She pays attention to every detail you want. I started with very sparse, uneven eyebrows and now they are absolutely perfect! During the appointment I didn't feel any pain but she made sure to check in and ask if I needed to be numbed more. The aftercare is very easy, I am so happy I decided to do this. Thank you Katrina!!!!!! read more

After reading reviews of tons and tons of eyebrow places, I zeroed in on Katrina because her styles aesthetic seemed to match with mine - natural and subtle; went through her Instagram page and was really impressed with her work. I was very clear on what I wanted and Katrina delivered over and beyond. From the moment I met her, she put all my worries at rest. She's so friendly and personable and made the entire process a pleasure. Even in my touch-up appointment, she took her time and never rushed me through the appointment. She's the best, best, BEST!!! read more

I was so nervous about getting my brows done that I waited 4 years! From the moment I walked in Katrina made me feel so comfortable. She thoroughly explained every step of the procedure which is not the same as the ones everyone else uses. Her patience, artistic eye, and caring all helped to create an amazingly natural look. And by the way, it really didn't hurt! Highly recommended. read more

I was referred to her from a friend. She looked so beautiful and I asked her what she was doing. She said it was her eyebrows!! What a difference it made and so natural!!! I called immediately! I love mine! She spent so much time with me and took her time to make sure they were perfectly done that looked so natural and enhanced my face. I am now going to go back to get my lips done!!! Don't wait book now!! read more

I am IN LOVE with my brows. Being blonde I was nervous about it not looking natural. Boy was I wrong. Katrina made my brows look amazing and are so natural. She made sure that they were symmetric before starting. She listened to how I like my brows to look. She educated me on the difference between microblading and machine. She took me through all the steps during my treatment and answered any questions I had. During the treatment she would have me look in the mirror multiple times throughout the process to make sure I was happy with the process and if more needed to be added in certain places. She made sure my brows were as perfect as it could be before I left. She explained the at home care before I left. A few days later she checked in on me asking how the healing process was going. An amazing experience with Katrina! My brows and I thank you!!! You definitely want to book an appointment with her and get your brows done! read more

Got my eyebrows done. So so happy with the results and overall experience. Such a fun, professional and very clean setting. Love the outcome! read more

I am really sad that when I reached out to Katrina about my concerns about my brows she didn't stand behind her work. I felt I was a loyal client and I even referred people to her. read more

Katrina is absolutely amazing! I love my brows! She's not only great with shaping them she really knows her color too! She's truly so talented! Thank you! read more

Katrina is such a sweet, kind, professional permanent makeup artist. Her attention to detail is beyond perfect. She took her time ensuring my brows were perfectly drawn out to match the shape of my face. We also chose and agreed on the color. Katrina constantly checks in to ensure I am feeling no pain. I couldn't have asked for anything better. She is confident in her work and it shows. Thank you so much Katrina for taking the time to make me feel beautiful. read more

I originally called another salon looking for permanent make up and they had referred me to Katrina letting me no they no longer did it. She did an absolutely fabulous job for me. Spent time to ask me what I was looking for and even more time to insure she had it right. Awesome experience with her!!! read more

I don't know where to start, with this review. About 6 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. 2 weeks ago I had to have a mastectomy and will start Chemotherapy in 2 weeks. I reached out to Katrina over the phone to explain my situation, I told her my goal to have micro blading done, as most likely I will lose all my hair/eyebrows during the process. Katrina suggested I get my doctor to approve the treatment before she could work on me (this was my first indicator that she was very detailed oriented). After getting a doctor's note and approval I scheduled my appointment. Katrina was very accommodating, quick scheduling. Katrina works in a very nice hair salon, her station is neat and clean (very upscale). First Katrina took her time explaining the different types of treatment, she measured my face and forehead, evaluated my skin tone and suggested for me to get a "powder brow" treatment. Let me tell you, Katrina is extremely detail oriented. The stencil around the shape of my brows took about 40 minutes alone!! The next 40 or so minutes she worked on my eyebrows and it was painless. The results were amazing, she made my brows look natural but more enhanced, better than I could have expected. I was so happy with the outcome and I was in awe of her workmanship. And then when it was time to pay her, Katrina said to me "I don't want you to pay me, I want to give this to you". I could not believe her gesture and demanded that I pay, but she wouldn't let me. All I can say is I cried and didn't know what to say. This woman is not only amazing at what she does, but she has a heart of gold. Thank you again Katrina, I hope you receive all the blessings in life and in business for your kind hearted gesture today. In a dark and difficult time in my life, you made it a little better. read more

I had an amazing power brow experience! Katrina is so professional, yet I felt like I had known her for years. She explained the process and the aftercare so I felt very comfortable. She really takes the time to "map out" your brows and has you sit up to check it out multiple times if needed before she proceeds. It was comforting to me that she behaved like a perfectionist when it comes to her craft! I am so pleased with my results and I love waking up in the morning to beautifully shaped brows! Thank you Katrina so much! read more

I know from previous microblading experiences how good she is. read more

Just got my brows completed by Katrina in her new and beautiful studio in San Clemente...it looks like a gorgeous new home inside! I overplucked my eyebrows a long time ago and needless to say have been filling in the bald spots I created every single day ever since. I was very nervous coming to get them microbladed that they wouldn't look natural so I was extremely specific about how I usually fill them in with makeup and where I wanted the new "hairs" to go... Katrina listened so well to me about every detail. She is very detail oriented herself so I felt immediately understood, calmed and in the best of hands. I can't even describe my satisfaction about my new brows. I roll out of bed and don't even have to touch them, I jump in the pool or ocean and they still look perfect! The color is perfect, the strokes are perfect, and the shape is perfect! Exactly what I was hoping for and more!! And the best part of it all was that the process was painless and the healing was immediate! Literally was good to go the moment I walked out. Not to mention Katrina is super nice, cool, and felt like an old friend from the moment I met her. I highly recommend Katrina! read more

I am so happy with Katrina's works. I'm very thankful I found her. I initially came for power brow treatment only, and at the end of the first brow treatment, I was so happy with Katrina's beautiful work that I booked the appointment for lip & eyeliner treatments together with my second brow treatment. Since then (2 months), I have had 5 complete strangers who stopped me and asked me where I had my brows done. Even my boyfriend loves the works and sees the difference they make on my face. Today was my second appointment for the lips and the eyeliners and I was completely satisfied. Katrina was very attentive to small details, sweet and caring. No further searching for me, I will stick with Katrina for any touchups in the future. I had never realized before how much having my brows and lips defined and colored would enhance my look and they made my skin look nicer too. Come to Katrina for treatments and you won't have to look for another beautician. read more

This is a long overdue review for an amazing member of our community! I stumbled upon Katrina when I was helping with our 20 year Dana Hills High School reunion. Our class decided to make it a benefit for a local class member and father of 5 who had been hit by a drunk driver and had a TBI (traumatic brain Injury). I reached out to the community for donations for our auction, and Katrina was one of the first people to generously come through. In researching her Instagram page to write up a bid sheet, I was so impressed with her work and her passion for it, that I ended up bidding on the item myself. It is so awesome to wake up and go and not have to touch up your brows. She not only does excellent work, but she is so responsible with cleanliness, safety and really making sure you are a good candidate for PM. She is trustworthy, and also an all in all cool person. If you are on the fence at all, I definitely suggest following her Instagram business page for a few weeks first. You will feel at ease and know you are in wonderful hands of a professional who loves what they do for a living. Thank you, Katrina! I love my eyebrows! read more
