She chain smokes and I was actually really annoyed by it as it took A LOT longer to finish then it should have. On my second follow up appt Julie was 45 minutes late getting there which also really annoyed me. I had Julie give me a more bold top eyeliner to an already existing liner from years ago. It turned out okay, it wasn't exactly what I wanted. While she was doing my liner she then went to my eyebrows and started making some corrections without even asking me first. She basically said "oh sweetheart let me do you a favor". Well no favor was done as I had really dark brown tattoo on my eyebrows and she completely f-ed it up by putting a different color, a lighter brown that was almost peach tint when it healed. So now I have to pencil in my brows to cover up the bullshit color that she put there without even getting my permission to do so. If you research her online, her and her father have been sued for apparently giving someone Hepatitis during the procedure in the past. She claimed to me that she herself makes and sharpens her own needles. Her prices are ridiculous too. She is not the inventor like she claims to be and her ego also rubbed me the wrong way. I find that very hard to believe as I have been getting tattooed for years by others across the USA. I would not recommend her at all.

So first of all, it didn't even feel like I was going to have my eyebrows done. It felt like I was…read morehanging out with my friends and playing with makeup. Julie & Julie are both so amazing and through, while being crazy down to earth and real. I had the best experience with her getting Microblading done today. I have been looking for somewhere that could do my microblading because while my eyebrows were dark which made them appear thick, they really weren't and they were not the same shape at all. Julie mapped out my eyebrows and made sure to ask how I wanted my eyebrows to look and even asked for pictures of how I normally did them when I filled them in to get the best idea of what my goal was. Even after the mapping, she checked with me to make sure the shape I had was the one I wanted. Julie was able to use my face shape and how I do my makeup to create brows that are so natural looking that nobody knows that they aren't done 24/7. This is the BEST place to get these done if you want a professional yet relaxed atmosphere that makes you feel more like a friend than a client they want in and out.

Let me just start by saying WOW!…read more My entire life I've had very sparse and fine eyebrows. I couldn't tell you how many different pencils, pomades, gels, etc that I have tried over the years just to try to look like I have SOME kind of brows. This experience has been life changing. I will actually be able to go swimming without feeling insecure about my appearance. Heather did a great job explaining the procedure, so I knew exactly what to expect. She moved quickly and was always gracious whenever I had to sneeze. Yep. You're gonna sneeze, too. I could feel her studying my face and making sure each stroke was thoughtfully placed, while also making sure my discomfort was as minimal as possible. (Shout out anesthetic!) Everything was very clean, and she was incredibly thorough. I anxiously await my touch up in January! Thank you, Heather! You rock!

Y'all. I feel like a person again…read more My eyebrows were never destined for greatness before Heather. When I was 3, I was bit in the eye by a Dalmatian. As a result, I have slightly less tissue under my right eyebrow than my left. Combined with a roller skating accident that removed the top of my arch when I was 12, and my right eyebrow has always been sort of a rebel. It has frustrated aestheticians, make up artists, and brow threaders my entire life. If you look in the photos, I even marked where almost no eyebrow exists naturally. Heather fixed it all, and I didn't even feel it. After two sessions, I now leave the house without worrying about anything more than some eyebrow gel. Tweezing my eyebrows is 100x easier because I have a clear definition of what should be plucked. And the shape is so much more even. When I told Heather I wanted a bit stronger brow than average, she delivered it perfectly. The best part is no one can tell that I've had anything permanent done. When I mention it, they look confused, then closely look at my eyebrows in amazement. If you aren't familiar with microblading, it is semi-permanent strokes added into your natural brow to fill and correct shape and density. With Heather, I didn't feel a thing because she goes above and beyond to find topical products that work. And while the initial price tag might make you balk, it's the best deal you'll find in Austin and, IMO, the best person you'll find to do them. It really is an investment that pays off in time, confidence, and (if you used to churn through brow products), serious savings. I can't recommend the process or Heather enough. Book with her now before her waiting list has you pining over brows for years.

I'm not proud of what the 90s did to my eyebrow hairs, but I'm super proud of myself for finding Mashari lol She is just too lovely for this world, and has found a way to achieve maximum kindness AND professionalism at the same time. I cannot begin to tell you how AFFIRMING these brows are for a trans elder as myself who has struggled with dysphoria a lot. I struggled with how feminine my brows were for so long, and now they are even better than what I thought i could never have! The way Mashari treated my complicated gender-affirming request was gracious, kind, and honestly above and beyond the courtesy you expect as a customer anywhere. I was seen and heard and respected, then sent off feeling like the world is my oyster! I'm going to go ahead and take credit for giving this incredibly talented artist the title of Goddess of All Brows (creating brows from scratch that look like this is no mortal feat). In case you see her pricing and go "oh my i could get it cheaper," then you are not looking at this from the right perspective; this is literally a face tattoo, and should cost a lot in order to be as good as you dream it would be. I got a bang for every penny I spent, and I'm telling you to go ahead and book Mashari rn and do yourself an enormous favor.

I am absolutely blown away with Mashari's work and how wonderful the experience was. I have wanted…read moreto get my brows done like this for almost 10 years now. It's a big price commitment which is why it took me so long but I finally did it and I cannot be happier. I was a little nervous I would have push back on what I wanted because I wanted a very bold brow for my natural hair color and was so pleasantly surprised with how understanding and supportive of my vision Mashari was. I showed her a few photos of how I fill in my brows and she marked out the exact perfect shape on the first try. I immediately knew I was in fantastic hands. She was great and paying attention to how my face and body were reacting to the process (eyes watering, twitching, etc) so much so I didn't even notice before she did. I was shocked at how little pain I felt from the process. When I finally got to see my new brows I immediately started to cry. This is something I've wanted for a long time and she managed to make my brows so perfect. She was so kind and sweet about my emotional reaction. I really cannot overstate how comfortable she made me feel and how confident these brows make me feel. The studio is STUNNING. I am obsessed with it. Such a comfortable space. She made sure that the tattoo table was as comfortable as possible even having a knee pillow which was so nice I'm thinking of getting one for myself! She even grabbed my sweater for me to make sure I wouldn't get cold. The aftercare instructions and little goodie bag is so helpful. I really love that she gives the exact balm and soap to use. I have a few tattoos and always worry about if I'm using the correct soap and moisturizer during the healing. And with this being on my face I want it to heal as well as possible so I love that she gave me exactly what I needed. Overall this whole experience felt so luxurious to me. From the studio, to the pillows on the table, to the aftercare goodie bag, even to the bathroom! I am blown away with Mashari's talent with tattooing and ability to interpret what her clients are saying and making it happen. She's also just incredibly fun to talk to and I loved getting to know her! I cannot recommend her enough.

She accommodated my schedule knowing I was slotted to leave the country in a few weeks. She was careful to explain the process and sent me home with a care package.

When I came back for a touch-up brow, she did an amazing job again even when it was a holiday for her. She made time for me. I appreciated that. Mychelle is an amazing artist and business owner.

Let me just say that I've been searching for several years for someone to do my ombré powder brows…read more I was ready to go back to California or maybe hOuston to get them done because options were more abundant. When I searched online, everyone that said they did "ombré brows" were not truly ombré brows--there was no gradient of light to dark effect. I was also really hoping to find someone who was Asian or has experience working with Asian clients. I was ECSTATIC when I found Mychelle and looked at her portfolio of previous work. The booking process was a breeze and Mychelle was wonderful to work with. She is very honest and price is reasonable for her experience. Is it cheap? No. But do you really want to pay "cheap" for your brows, which can make or ruin your face?! She was very patient with me getting my draft brows to my liking. I also trust her suggestions.
