Dr Lane and her staff are both incredible. I had tried two different Aptos med spas and had very…read moreunpleasant disappointing experiences. Both of those providers way overfilled my lips requiring second visits to dissolve (which really hurts!) my overfilled duck lips. Neither provider offered to refund any of my money - which was twice as much as Dr Lane. She is totally transparent with pricing, and let me know exactly what my options were and the costs prior to procedure. Most importantly, the filler and Dysport were painless with nearly zero bruising. She's an artist and a pro with amazing bedside manner and I had a wonderful experience with great results. Highly recommend

She made it sound like I could apply the consultation fee towards Botox. I called back and asked to apply it toward a product and they said "no". I wouldn't recommend her. I found someone else who can easily perform both surgeries, and they applied the 250 dollar consultation fee toward the surgeries. It's gauche to nickel and dime a person for a deposit when the Dr. is the one who is lacking in the confidence to do something as simple and as ordinary as what I was inquiring about.

When I called to see if I can reschedule it to the following day, I was told no appointments under my name existed. I was peeved but it worked out fine since I needed it for Sunday anyway. Sunday was booked for 2PM. I arrived at 12:15PM and requested to be seen earlier. I was told to come back at 12:30PM. Yay! I was very anxious because every time I step out of MAC, I feel like a million bucks. I assumed every MAC would create the same experience. Sadly, that did not occur. Although the girl that did my makeup was very nice but she didn't create the smoky eyes like I asked and the lashes she put on me looked incredibly fake. Granted I know I can't expect to look "natural" after a makeup session but it looked totally unreal in an unpleasant manner. To me. Everyone at the wedding liked it but that goes to show you that I do not care what people think or say about me - what matters to me is how I feel and see myself. I was unhappy. My fault. I should have gone to the MAC in San Jose at Westfield Valley Fair. This is just one of many that is added to my "why Santa Cruz sucks" mental list. Side note: I had a blast at my cousin's wedding and cannot wait for another event to get glamorous for. I'm not a makeup person and will never be. You just need to spend at least $50 in MAC products for the makeup session; a really good deal.

I have almost completely converted to MAC makeup so I end up here a lot - I can't seem to run out of everything at the same time. The counter seems to be permanently swamped but you always get at least some acknowledgement that you are there and waiting, which makes such a difference. The artists are willing to give recommendations - I always need help finding that perfect everyday shadow, and I have never been disappointed with their picks. For Halloween this year, I decided to be 100% girly and wanted to add fake lashes to my look. I have been wanting to try them for a while, but the application process and glue in particular scared me. I mentioned them to Jasmine as an afterthought, and she went through the entire procedure with me, did the motions in front of the mirror, trimmed the lashes, and gave me one of the Q-tippy applicators for the glue. So nice! Come Halloween, I got them on my lids first try and they looked amazing. This has totally opened up a whole new world of femininity for me.

Haven't been to a salon since covid and had a special occasion booked last minute so the search was…read moreon to find a place for highlights and a trim. This place came recommended and had good reviews and they happened to have a spot open in time for my event. Upon arriving, I was pleased with cleanliness and layout of salon. I communicated with the stylist that I wanted to blend some minimal grays that were just at the hair line ( a treat from pregnancy) and get more gold highlights and take out any red. Showed the stylist a photo of myself with the hair I wanted (pre-pandemic hair). I thought she understood. I've been having my hair professional done for decades...and this is the first time I've spent 4 hours in a chair...even when getting the "works". For those of you who've had your hair done, you know it's not like you can just get up and walk out half way through....you sorta have to just deal with results and hope for the best. Which is what I did.. The stylist was knowledgeable about the steps and communicated but I knew she had gone down the wrong path with my hair when she herself expressed it came out darker than she had intended but "not to worry" she'd fix it with the highlights. I didn't see how that was possible but I had already been there 2 hours and I wanted to trust in the process. Fast forward and I ended up with reddish / rusty highlights on the caramel side. A far cry from my photo and my ask. The stylist even remarked that it was NOT what I had asked for but at least it looked better than when I came in. I didn't find the remarks comforting. While she tried to get me excited about how great my hair looked all I could see was this dark streak/line about an inch wide that wraps around the back of my hair where she tried to do a 2 color process which she admittedly had said it didn't work out the way she wanted but again not to worry..( this is in my new hair growth area). Needless to say, I was just over it. My hair was darker and redder than when I went in! *I did have to take a couple calls while in the chair (and she was patient with that)..but they were max 10minutes total combined so I really doubt that impacted results. The stylist did say she guarantees her work but I don't want to give it another try. $240 later ( I left $40 for tip)...overall disappointed... l I could have spent $20 for an at home out of the box coloring that I would've been much happier with. Giving 3 stars for cleanliness, friendliness, haircut, price and availability.

Theres no way she can justify that my hair was dead enough to warrant that bc i had gotten a haircut from her a couple months before and she noted I had very healthy hair.

I have been growing my hair for years and for her to cut it so that it is shorter than it was a whole year ago when i wanted half an inch of really sucks. Do not go to Judy if you Don't want her to cut multiple more inches than you ask for. I really thought she was a good hairdresser at first but now I have no trust in her and would not come back.
