I've been going to Alessandra for my brows since 2022, and they just keep looking better every time. From the beginning, Alessandra explained that microblading wasn't the best option for my oily skin, so getting powder brows was a total game changer, especially because she was able to cover the scars on my brows. I also did my eyeliner with Alessandra a few days ago, and I'm so glad I did. It's healing really well and honestly, no downside at all. She truly has a gift! My brows and eyeliner have never looked this good. She's gentle, meticulous, and makes the whole experience feel easy. So grateful for her talent! I walked out feeling confident and looking fabulous. read more

So thankful for Alessandra and her sharing her talents to do my eyebrows. She is very personable and kind. My eyebrows were very sparse and she made them look good. Happy that I don't have to worry about doing my eyebrows daily. read more

It's been 5 months since I got the powder nano strokes and I'm still loving my brows! It's so nice to wake up to darker, fuller brows and not have to spend so much time on them when I'm getting ready. Thank you so much, Alesandra! read more

Alessandra is wonderful. I first went to her to get some bad Microblading removed. She did a good job with it. Then I went back so that she could give me some nice powder brows. I didn't want them to be really dark because my hair is light. She did an amazing job. She's very thorough and patient. I am super happy with my eyebrows, the pictures are from my first treatment. I will have a small touchup but really they look awesome already. read more

Great result for eye brows - great experience and outcome. She did my eyebrows and it didn't hurt and the brow looks natural

I've never been happier with a cosmetic service! Alessandra is not only a delight to work with but her attention to detail and knowledge of her craft really sets her apart in the industry. I held off from microblading/powder brows for years because of the no sweating after care and the investment. Having to pencil in brows that were increasingly thinning (have always had thinner brows but also experiencing some thyroid issues contributing) was an extra step in the day I was tired of and since I live a pretty active lifestyle, being able to get up and go is important to me. The process, after care, and cost are beyond worth the result. Alessandra listened to what I wanted but also provided her input and suggestions and spent extra time making sure the application was as great as it could be. I'm so happy with how natural and full my brows look now and will recommend Alessandra to anyone considering! read more

Alessandra is WONDERFUL! From the initial video consultation to the minute I walked out of her studio, every step of the process was great! She is warm, patient, engaging and really makes you feel comfortable, walking you through every step. She was great with communication via text and email and was kind enough to check-in during the healing process. Her post-care instructions are straight-forward and clear, which is much appreciated! She takes great pride in her work and is a perfectionist, which is VERY IMPORTANT when someone is working on your face! I really appreciated this about her. As well, she is honest with what will or won't work for your skin type and face. She's not in the business to just make money, she genuinely wants you to look beautiful and feel confident. You can tell she's a true artist. I am so happy I found someone who is so dedicated and meticulous as Alessandra. THANK YOU!! read more

If you would like your eyebrows done perfectly go to Alessandra. She is so patient through all of the stages of the process, but especially during the design (arguably the most important, in the spirit of "measure twice, cut once"), and will do what it takes to get your face just right. Super grateful for her careful work, 100% recommend. One very important note though: you will be very tempted to aboard the second phase (round), which is some weeks after the first application-- do not give into the temptation!! As promised, the second round not only looks better than the first, but also lasts months instead of weeks. That's really when the original investment pays off I think the pictures speak for themselves, but the bottom line is that my eyebrows turned out exactly how I wanted them, which is always the desired result... so don't hesitate to book Alessandra if she has any openings. Thank you for my beautiful brows read more

My sister and I had been discussing getting our eyebrows micro bladed for a few months. We both had lost some of the outer third of our brows but it was even more evident on me since a number of brow hairs were grey. My sister was first to find Alessandra. She was thrilled with her eyebrows and I agreed, they looked great so I took the plunge and booked an appointment. Alessandra greeted me warmly and it was very evident that she had excellent customer service skills. I have grey hair so there are some in my eyebrows and I wanted to keep them since I felt it would be more natural with my hair. Alessandra agreed and went to work lightly sketching out the brow outline and mixing color, explaining everything. I asked about sterile technique and she didn't hesitate to answer (needles are from a fresh unopened package and so are the inks) in a professional manner. She told me that my brows would look redder and darker than I want the first few days-week, then it will tone down to a taupe color (a good color for me with my skin tone and hair color). Some areas will take better than others, so you come back in for a touch up in about a month, and then you are good to go for a year. Because my eyebrows were essentially feral, she had to pluck a bit to start and while I could feel it, it was no big deal. But for me, I felt the plucking more than the needles, it really wasn't painful at all. The first appointment does take time but when she was done, I could see my eyebrows were literally perfect. Definitely darker than I was used to but I trusted her and the process. It's weird at first, you feel a bit like Joan Crawford but no one else really seems to notice and by week two, it's really toned down. By the week of my second appointment, I was feeling good about my eyebrows, I could definitely go without any eyebrow coloring but also like maybe they could be a bit darker. Voila, Alessandra did exactly that in the touch up! I'm looking forward to a year of not sweating my eyebrows off and generally being completely lazy about them. If you're looking for the best eyebrows done by someone who is professional, fun to chat with and really enjoys what she does, I can highly recommend Alessandra. read more

Alessandra is an artist! She loves what she does and you can tell, she's very detail oriented and very professional. I had my brows done by her last November and I am very happy with them because they look so natural. She's so nice too! Thanks Alessandra! read more

Alessandra is fantastic. I reached out to her and we immediately FaceTimed. Then the same day I met her in person. As I am in my 60's, she recommended the powdering technique, which would give me a very natural look. She practiced the shape by drawing on my brows. I felt she was very professional and personal. It was a two step procedure. Nothing hurt and I have been extremely happy with my results. I highly recommend her. read more

I highly recommend Alessandra of Pluma Glam Studio. What sets her apart from other micro blade aestheticians is the one-two punch of technical precision and artistic vision. Not only can she expertly (hygienically and meticulously) handle the micro or nano blade like a world-class surgeon, taking into account your facial anatomy and skin characteristics, she is highly attuned to your feelings and emotions, putting you at ease throughout the process. She has the ability to flawlessly design and shape your eyebrows, to match and blend pigments, to complement your features in the most natural way. Her sensitivity and responsiveness to my needs resulted in smooth and painless experience. During the healing process she was quick to reply to my texts and answer all of my questions. Good communication goes a long way towards a successful outcome. I trusted her assessment of my eyebrows and what would work best to achieve my desired look. She recommended shading and minimal nano strokes to fill in my sparse brows, which was ideal for my "mature" skin. I'm so glad I listened to her as the results are amazing! My new brows illuminate my features, giving maximum impact to my eyes. Before undergoing micro blading Alessandra walked me through the process, providing more detailed information and more candid insights than any other provider (or website) during the two years I spent researching this procedure. I was very cautious wanting a good fit with a micro blade artist, someone who established a complete comfort level and offered an uncompromising commitment to my satisfaction and wellbeing. This was a big part of why I chose Alessandra as it is a semi permanent tattoo you will be waking up to every morning. It was unnerving thinking about taking the plunge, especially with the knowledge that in the wrong hands it could go seriously wrong, leaving me feeling regretful, unhappy, self conscious or gasp! scarred! Yikes! So finding Alessandra was a wonderful gift. She had the brilliance and professionalism I was looking for, and was willing to go the distance to give me effortlessly beautiful, natural looking eyebrows. Thank you Alessandra for your patience and kindness, for instilling trust and for building my confidence. I LOVE MY NEW EYEBROWS! read more

Alessandra is a meticulous artiste when it comes to Powderbrows. Tattooing is more expensive, the color can mutate, and brow trends change. Alessandra's process looks natural, lasts for years, and saves time and money versus brow tinting and using a brow pencil daily. There is also minimal discomfort, and no downtime. As a woman "of a certain age" my brows have become more sparse over the years, but I am SO happy with my new brows. Alessandra is a very warm and pleasant person, in addition to being a consummate professional. Highly recommend! read more

A lot of my facial hair is blonde (both a blessing and a curse!) so lately I've been filling in my eyebrows with eyeshadow to make them seem fuller. I don't spend much time on makeup, so this inevitably smears or is uneven or feels unnatural. Sometimes I do it and sometimes I don't, so my look was unpredictable. Saturday morning I met Alessandra for my first microblading eyebrow treatment. Before my appointment she asked a lot of specific questions about what I used to be sure the treatment would work and be safe. When I arrived she explained even more about the process and what to expect. We took a few "before" photos and then she started measuring and marking where she would be filling in. This careful process took quite awhile and she even used a digital tool to measure evenness and then made a few more adjustments. It is definitely both an art and a science! There was a lot of bright light so I closed my eyes and listened to a podcast while she began to work. I've been waxing my eyebrows for 20+ years so I may be a little desensitized but the procedure really didn't hurt! What I felt seemed like a stuck ballpoint pen drawing on my eyebrows, over and over again. Sometimes going over the same place was a little sensitive, but it was not bad at all. Alessandra used numbing cream after a few passes and the cool wipes were refreshing! We took a short breather between brows and then touched one up after the second one was done. My skin wasn't taking the pigment as well as hoped, so she had to use more that the usual amount to get the results she wanted. We took a few "after" photos and she gave me detailed care instructions with a little packet of products to use. I was nervous to see my boyfriend when I went home, but he loved them! He genuinely thought my eyebrows were natural and mine and he had to study close to realize the parts that aren't! I love that when I see myself my brows look better than I could ever have drawn myself, and now it makes me want to improve my makeup skills because my brows definitely stand out! It's a huge time saver and major confidence builder! I'm so happy I met Alessandra and that she is so careful with her art. I was a little nervous in the beginning, but she really made me feel at ease and with the time and care she takes in preparing, I genuinely felt I could trust her. Since the procedure I've been careful to not take long hot showers, clean my brows regularly with a specific regimen, and avoid rubbing or makeup. For the next two weeks I need to be careful, then in 6-8 weeks I go in for a touch up, and then they last for 8-10 months! Absolutely incredible! Wish I had done this sooner! read more

Loving my brows by Alessandra! I was very pleased after my first appointment and now even happier after my touch up. The brows look great. Alessandra is very thorough. She took great care discussing the outcome and setting up the shape. Very professional and also very sweet! Enjoyed our conversation during the appointment as well. I highly recommend her and the procedure in general. It's a subtle change that makes a big difference. Better than Botox. Thank you Alessandra!! read more

Alessandra was great!! If you're looking for a perfectionist ...: this is your gal! And, I hope you are. MY GOD WOMAN- they're your eyebrows.... ON. YOUR. FACE. She is fabulous at what she does. Ultimate hygienic and treats your face like the canvas it is for her next piece of art. If I have one rule - I have 1000.

But ain't no Peloton run ever gonna erase a bad brow tatt! Just sayin' . read more

Alessandra is an artist and a perfectionist. She was extremely diligent in making sure that my new, improved brows would be symmetrical and look completely natural (which is what I wanted vs. more done up, which she can do as well). Her attention to detail definitely calmed my nerves about getting microblading done -- after all, it was going on face and would last for awhile. She has a gentle touch when applying the pigment. I felt a few pricks here and there, but Alessandra made sure that I was comfortable the entire time. My brows are looking great and I wish I had done this sooner. Thank you, Alessandra, for making this a great experience. read more

Alessandra is an amazing artist when it comes to the brows. She was able to correct a bad job from someone else that was 2 yrs old. She was able to redo the color and make it so much better. She also was able to reshape my brows from the previous ones to make them look so amazing and absolutely natural. She takes her time and makes sure it is exactly what you want. I highly recommend her and would give her an A+++!! read more

Alessandra is talented and professional. She takes her time and is extremely detailed. She went above and beyond to make sure my brows were not too dark with very light and sensitive skin. The color didn't hold and she did a redo for free. They look great now even with the challenge of my more mature skin and facial features. read more

I had been debating to get my eyebrows micro bladed for the past year so when I saw a friend's results form Alessandra, I knew it was jump to in. Alessandra couldn't have been more professional, kind and informative prior to my appointment. She really makes sure you are aware of everything before your visit. During both visits she was meticulous on creating the perfect measurement for my brows, which is so appreciated. Throughout the process she explains what is going on and why and I couldn't be happier with the results! I would definitely recommend Alessandra to anyone looking to get their brows done. They won't be disappointed. read more

I have been wanting to write this review ever since I got my brows done. I just went for my touch up and my brows look amazing!!!! I love them. Alessandra does the best brows I have ever seen. I have had my brows done twice before, and this is in another league altogether. The love and care she puts into her work is truly a God given talent. She will not stop until your brows look absolutely perfect, and they do. There is no pain and very little discomfort at all. If you are looking for someone to do your brows you will love Alessandra, and her work. DO NOT HESITATE. Debbie V. read more

Stop right here and make an appointment. Alessandra is excellent in every way: convenient appointment, adorable personality, great communications, terrific artist. She delivered in every regard. I couldn't be more thrilled. Last, totally comfortable during and after session. Awesome!!! read more

Can't express how happy I am with my brows. I had originally done micro blading in the past but was not happy with how they looked. I booked an appointment with Alessandra after I read her reviews. Alessandra takes her time is designing the shape of the brows, she is very meticulous and detailed oriented to make sure your brows look amazing. I loved and enjoyed the whole experience and procedure. She is very professional at what she does. Can't wait to do my touch up. María José. read more

Alessandra is extremely talented, kind and professional. I recently moved to Encinitas and was in desperate need of new micro bladed eyebrows. She responded immediately to my inquiry, asked me to send a few photos and had me scheduled for an appointment the following day. My eyebrows have never looked better. They are so natural and perfectly shaped. She uses the latest technology to make sure everything is symmetrical and made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole appointment. Everything was sanitized, clean, and I felt very safe! Masks on the whole appointment we listened to a fun Brazilian inspired playlist while she was working on me. My friends have been complementing my eyebrows and two are even looking to come to Alessandra, which is huge since they live in Los Angeles and will drive down here because she's so amazing!! My eyebrows look so natural it's unreal! I've never been happier with my face/eyebrows! read more

I've had my eyebrows done/microbladed before...but last time it hurt a lot and didn't last that long. I found Alessandra on here and online and Im so LUCKY that I did and went to here for an eyebrow shading and powder brow :) I will definitely be going back again for touch ups in a month...six months...or whenever I'm wanting my brows done! She is such charismatic, intelligent, and wonderful person! Such a delight. Definitely recommend!! read more

I'm one of those people who have very faint eyebrows and I am tired of filling them in everyday, especially during the summer when they can just disappear when I'm in the pool. I have done eyebrows tattoos previously. My first experience: horrible; second experience; great; my third experience is with Alessandra and she is the best. Here are my reasons why: 1. Alessandra is a patient professional and our aesthetics are similar. Like most women, I am super specific about how I want my eyebrows to look. I was previously a makeup artist while in college so I understand the look of someone's eyebrows are a constant, changing look. With that being said, I know that I want a fuller, long, natural brow with a high arch. Basically a dramatic brow, but natural. I assumed this would be a confusing thing to explain to Alessandra, but she got it immediately. 2. She is in constant communication with her teachers and color experts. Some aesthetic professionals want to appear professional by not asking for advise or expertise from someone with more experience. But Alessandra has no problems speaking and texting with her teachers about your color, the shape... I felt like I had a few consultants. More eyes the better. 3. We spent a lot of time mapping my brows. She is very precise. She took constant measurements and made sure the brows were perfectly drawn before we went in to do the shading and permanent process. 4. She is very specific about pre-care and after-care. I've had some professionals only care about what happens inside the room, and no worries about what happens afterwards. I feel like Alessandra takes ownership of the whole process. 5. I am super happy with my brows. 6. I had done my first session with Alessandra prior to the Chinese virus and had to wait to make sure things were safe to proceed with my following appointments. Alessandra was safe, careful and made sure I could continue with my appointments while being safe herself. I hope this review is helpful for anyone considering microblading your brows. I love my brows, I found the process to be easy and Alessandra to be a consumate professional. I would definitely come back for my follow up appointments. read more

Amazing. I love how detailed and careful she was when sculpting my brows to my face. So kind and fun! I love the results so much

Alessandra is part-architect, part-artist, and 100% magical. She did a fantastic job on my mismatched, patchy eyebrows and honestly, walking around with these new brows has been such a boost to my self-esteem. She is meticulous and patient in her work, spending a lot of time tracing out the new shapes, measuring, and making sure they complement your face. The process of powdering isn't pain-free, but Alessandra's touch is sure and light; she is also communicating throughout the process and checking in with you and your comfort level. As a bonus, she is impeccably kind and caring, following up regularly to make sure you are taking care of your brows in the healing process. If you are thinking about getting your brows done, look no further than Alessandra. She's the best of the best! read more

Allessandra was soooo professional and did beautiful work!!! She approaches her craft like an artist making sure that the brows she does are the perfect fit for you and your face and that the color looks natural. She is meticulous and lets you the client confirm the shape of the brows before she starts. Alessandra did not rush and ensured the color took. She stands by her work and is not only professional but personable as well. I will not go anywhere else!!! She is the best. If you are thinking of getting your brows done for the first time and are hesitant, don't be. You'll love it and wish you had them done sooner. If you go elsewhere, you need to go here instead! read more

I had my brows done by Alessandra ove the course of 3 months. She was very knowlegable and percise and when my skin didn't take to the treatment the first time as we expected it would she was able to nail down exactly what needed to be done the second touch up and then brought me back later to perfect them. She did a great job. Is incredibly professional and kind! I definitely recommend her! Also her follow up is great! She texts to check in on how my brows were in the following weeks. If she does this with you I recommend sending a video with all detail rather than a photo. (I did this and she knew exactly what and when I should have my touch up). read more

I am 71 yrs old and had barely any eyebrows left. I decided to take a chance on microblading permanent brows. Alessandra was informative and patient explaining the different options available. Everyone has a different skin type, especially older skin types. I am very happy with the results and would recommend her. read more

Alessandra did a beautiful job for both my first time and touch up! She took her time and is very passionate about her work. I absolutely love my eyebrows! Thank you again! read more

This was the first time I have tried microblading and I was very nervous to start. I have light (not very full) eyebrows that I just wanted to look full without having to fill them in everyday. My first visit to Alessandra was back in March RIGHT before the first shutdown. It was a great appointment and Alessandra was very patient and took her time mapping and microblading. I really appreciated this because there were times I had to take a break when the same places were hit twice. She was very generous with the numbing cream so that definitely helped! I came out of the appointment really liking my brows and the shape and could not wait for my touch up. Then everything shut down. I was not able to see Alessandra again until July which was much longer than recommended between first appointment and touch up. I opted to start all over again because it really was not anyones fault and out of Alessandra's control completely. I AM SO GLAD I DID. After my second appointment she really knew much more about my skin type and this time did a mixture of strokes plus the machine. WOW I loved the shape and the color lasted much longer, I probably did much better with the after care as well since I was no longer a newbie to microblading. Fast forward two months (after the last shutdown) and I went back in for my touch up. I loved my shape so she really just hit spots that needed a little touch up and I absolutely love the outcome. The last thing I really appreciate about Alessandra is how much she cares about post-care and checking in with clients. She is very specific about checking in and making sure I am doing the right things AFTER my appointment (based specifically on my skin type) to make sure my brows last longer and I have the absolute best outcome. Very very happy. Thank you Alessandra!! I will be a returning client for sure :) read more

Alessandra is absolutely masterful at creating beautiful brows, and she's a delight to work with. I've had my brows done twice before, using the same powder technique just used on me, but the results were nothing like what Alessandra just did for me. She spent the first hour using her special tools to carefully measure, calibrate, plot, and photograph before actually beginning the semi-permanent process. She and I collaborated on selecting what we thought was the best color for me, and then she had me look in the mirror to see if I agreed with her plan. The result is amazing. I now have the beautiful brows I've always wanted. Thank you Alessandra! read more

I was so glad to find Alessandra last year. My aging brows were looking pretty sad and in the need for some serious help. I was nervous but Alessandra takes the time to explain the entire process to you. Her aftercare instructions are so clear especially for this novice. I was so impressed with my results last year that I recently went back for a touchup so that I can keep my pretty brows. She is amazing. read more
