    Brow lamination, hybrid tint, and wax
    Traci J.

    I have been coming to Miss knockout since 2021. I found my brow artist Adrienne and she is the absolute best! I have never gotten compliments on my brows until I started coming to her. She is so easy to talk too makes the whole experience comfortable as well. I have been coming to her for brow lamination, hybrid tint, and wax. I am so grateful for her. Everytime I come I feel very welcomed by the staff they have very friendly offer refreshments they also have products on hand if I'm looking for more items. I could not recommend this place and Adrienne enough!

    The best of the best of the best spot to get your eyebrows and lashes done. I moved here from Los Angeles, where I paid three times the price to get less than what I received here: excellent service, perfect brows, and a beautiful environment. Love you, Miss Knockout!

    Well, this is really the first time I have ever done this as you can see from my profile but I felt this needed to be said so that people can understand who the company is that you're dealing with and the type of customer service that's being provided. I would like to start this off by saying that my fiance has been a customer of this company for over a year and has ALWAYS used my credit card ( that is under my name) to pay and they have happily taken the money EVERY SINGLE TIME. Fast forward to about 2 weeks ago when my Fiance decided she wanted to cancel her appointment. She had to put in a deposit of $188 for the appointment. She decided she did not want to go to the appointment anymore so she canceled her appointment a week ahead. Two weeks has passed and we did not receive our money yet I was becoming irritated with the fact that my money has not been returned to us yet. My finance then called Miss Knockout and spoke to the owner Kim who was extremely rude about the fact. She kept stating that we never paid a deposit but we had the receipts. She then came out with another excuse of " Well you shouldn't be using a card with a different name, we don't accept that". Yet you have before? She replied with " Oh well that's a mistake". Fast forward to two days ago when I completely just had it, especially how they were treating my fiance so I decided to call myself. I was told by the front desk lady * Corey * ( I believe that's her name but I might be misspelling it I apologize for that) that she will give my number to the owner and she will give me a call right back and reiterated the fact that my fiance will not be allowed to be seen with my card. Six hours have passed and no one called so I decided to show up at the salon with my girl and see what the problem was and If I can talk to Kim in person. We showed up and talked to Corey and she said that Kim had just left she even tried calling her while we were there but nothing. At this point, she asked if she can see the card which I don't understand why but we gave it to her anyway. She did not know who I was at this point I never gave her any identification at all. She then said ok I'll mark it down as I saw the card, I replied " but you never even checked my ID? How do you know that's even me and not some random person? " She replied " Oh I'm sorry you're right. Can I see your ID? Sorry I've just been a little taken back here since y'all showed up" I don't understand why she was taken back? No one was raising their voice it was a calm situation but she was frazzled for some reason. Now I do want to state that I am Afro-Latino and pretty dark-skinned. I hope that this didn't at all play a part in her having this feeling of being " taken aback" or frazzled but my later conversation with the owner is starting to make me think otherwise. I showed her my ID and she assured me she will be calling me tomorrow to see if we can fix the issue, so we left. The next day I had to call them back because she did not call me and I was highly annoyed at this point and spoke to Corey again and she stated that she spoke to Kim and they will be sending me a check for the full refund and I was happy. She took my address and told me she will be calling me later in the day to let me know when she has dropped off the check and we left on good terms because I felt my money was coming back finally. Then Today came and I never got a call from the company AGAIN so I had to call them again to make sure my check has been mailed. Again Corey picked up but this time told me she needed to pass the phone to Kim ( the owner). Kim told me that she will send a check over to me but there's one thing I need to do. Apparently, her staff felt like they weren't safe by me showing up at the salon yesterday and felt very uncomfortable so she needed me to sign a paper stating that I won't be returning to her establishment again. I was immediately confused because I didn't do anything in the establishment. If anything it was quite the easy encounter. The only thing was I was highly irritated at this point so It def showed on my face that I was not happy as nobody would be. Yet I said fine because I had no intention of going back to her company, especially the way they spoke to my girl. Kim then responded Oh and I will send over the check as soon as you sign that paper and another paper saying you will not slander or write any negative reviews about the company. That's where I completely lost it and had it with her. I lost my composure and told her off. She was trying to keep my money hostage until I signed this paper? No that was not happening. During that call, she even threatened to call the cops on me. So I laughed at her and told her to do it. I'm not doing anything wrong and I'm not scared of the cops, so go right ahead. I am not signing this paper saying I won't' write any negative reviews. I've reached a Char limit so will be a continuation of this post.

    Showing what my brows were before and after the appointment

    Well my eyebrows are ruined. I've been here before and loved it each time. But this time was not it. I go in for a shaping and a tint and came out with two caterpillar's on my face. The dye wasn't on my brows but ON MY SKIN and even if she was trying to go for a "boxy eyebrow" the lines weren't even straight. I cried after leaving this place bc of how bad I looked. The cherry on top to the whole situation was that I paid for a MASTER brow shaping and tint which is more expensive and didn't leave happy. Don't go to the owner for your brows unless you like the caterpillar look. The picture with my mask on was my brows before and the other was right after the appointment. *upgrading my post bc the customer service here was amazing. I got a full refund, free fixing of my brows, and a 30$ in store gift card. Luckily my brows are back to the way I wanted them originally. I highly recommend Adrienne she was very accommodating and listened to what I wanted and made sure to let me see my brows every step of the way and to make sure they turned out how I wanted them too. A big shoutout for them to fix them and make sure I was happy at the end of the day. I uploaded a new picture what my brows look like now for reference. Thank you miss knockout for making this experience better and accommodating to what I wanted to be done about this situation.

    Post pepper spray (still slaying)

    Got a lash lift and it literally lasted through me getting pepper sprayed 3 weeks after I got them lifted and they still looked good for another couple weeks after the event. Cannot recommend enough.

    lash lift/tint + brow shaping before and after
    Nesrin D.

    Absolutely obsessed with my experience at MK. I went in for a lash lift + tint and Kimmie made me feel super comfortable and explained everything since it was my first time. I also loved that even though she recommended the small mold to me, she was totally open to my opinion and choice to go with the medium size (which I'm super happy with! but might try the small next time). No pressure at all! The process was pretty quick and surprisingly relaxing - also ended up getting a brow shaping which I LOVE the results of, even though that wasn't initially in the front of my mind! Could not recommend this salon more. The staff is so sweet and it's clear everyone here knows their stuff. The salon is also totally stunning and there's coffee, mimosas, infused water and snacks while you wait! It's amazing to find a spot like this in Portland - will definitely be coming back regularly.

    Lashes done by Kimmie
    Nam N.

    Unassuming from the entrance but as soon as you walk up the stairs above the Kells Brewery and through the door the ambiance of space, light and beautifully decorated, foreshadowed of great things to come. We booked with Kimmie - she's a sweetheart but who cares about all that if the product isn't good. I've gone to a few other places before and always left dissatisfied for one reason or another. Not only was my lashes perfect in my eyes (no pun intended), I finally got a complement out of my husband (not that it matters) but it's positive reinforcement of what I already knew. I can't wait to go back for my next appointment! Cheers!

    My brows were uneven and you can't really tell, but the ends of my lashes and a couple spots in the middle came off within a couple days.

    I've never reviews a business with one star. But their service here in just Terrible! Other than Kaylee (I think that's her name), who schedule the appointments (she's always so sweet and a delight to deal with) and Jaylynn (who was my favorite stylist), the service here is terrible and their extensions don't last longer than a week and the henna brow tattoo doesn't work at all-waste of money. If you look up my history of appointments of my first couple months there, I had to get fills every week or two, so as a business owner, if I'm bringing you consistent business like that, you would think they would be more accommodating. My very first time making an appointment here, the girl I spoke to misquoted the price of my fills and told me I could get a discount and didn't mention to tell me to come with a mask (this was the beginning of Covid), which she acknowledged and apologized for in person when addressed, and once I arrived for my first appointment, I didn't even get the stylist I originally asked for (which was specifically an Asian stylist, which I think was Kimmie-now that I'm seeing a photo of her on Yelp), that she said she would assign me with, and my stylist quoted me a higher price than what was quoted over the phone (which the front desk girl, again, apologized for) and I also had to go and get a mask because she didn't give me a heads up to wear one for the appointment (again, this is before masks were mandatory). So, my first impression here was that they were really unorganized and unprofessional already. At my first appointment, I got my extensions done by Jaylynn, who actually did a great Job (given the available materials), but the lashes started falling off within a week, and my friend and I also tried the henna for our brows (which is said to last about 3 weeks, but only lasted about 3 days) so we went back to tell them and show them, and my friend didn't get a refund or credit, but I did get a free touch up for my lashes since a lot fell off within a week. So, I continued to go get fills there and make appointments with Jaylynn only. A couple months later, I made an express fill appointment with another stylist, because Jaylynn wasn't available, (with a blonde stylist, who was supposed to be the 2nd best to Jaylynn) and she was soooo slow, with sweaty palms (that really bothered me when she had her hands on my face) and she barely filled my lashes, which I paid about $60 for, and the ends of my extensions started coming off so much that I tried to reschedule a few days later (which with my busy schedule, ended up being within 8 days instead of 7, one day over their complimentary touch up week time frame) and even though they could see how badly the extensions came off, they refused to fix my extensions, on the house, let alone give me any sort of a discount! And when I've had express fills some with Jaylynn, they were 10x better and fuller, because she so fast, and I expressed this to them and they were completely indifferent about it and refused to accommodate in ANY way. I was so put off about that that I didn't go back for a few months and then I recently tried to give them another shot for express fills after having gotten my lashes done elsewhere, a week ago, and the girl on the phone, once again, scheduled me for an express fill with no problem, even though I mentioned that I had my full set done a week ago elsewhere, just to receive a message from them later that day, saying that because my lash extensions weren't done there (the full set), that I was obligated to a 90 min volume session for $120! For fills! I've never heard this before, and I've been getting my lashes done for a decade now! When all I needed was just a few lashes added to the far ends of my extensions!! How outrageous is that?! And soooo unprofessional!! She then asked for me to send her photos of my current lashes so she can determine how long the time would take, which I thought was fair and was about to do so after my work meeting, and before I could even respond, 20 minutes later, the owner herself refused me as a client, because I was trying to find a way to go around having to commit to a 90 minute sessions for $120 for basic volume fills (probably only 20 pieces max! I didn't even get a chance to send photos before she outright refused me! Unbelievable! What a horrible establishment. And the girls that work there openly talk about how they don't like each other and you can even hear everyone's conversations from every room, because the top of each room, the ceilings, are all open. This place really needs to get their staff on the same page, so there's less miscommunications, and work on their professionalism. They're overpriced anyway, so I would recommend anywhere else but here.

    Can regular mascara be placed on top of the semi-permanent mascara if I'm looking for a more dramatic look? Or would the tint be better if I wanted to apply regular mascara on top for desired look?

    Hi Georgia, thanks for the message! Both services are designed with the intent that you would not wear mascara on top of them. Semi permanent mascara is a smudge proof treatment that is professionally applied AND removed. If you would like to still… Read more
