Emily F.

Omg I LOVE my results!! I was pretty hesitant to get my eyebrows microbladed. I've had friends who microbladed their brows and I was jealous of how beautiful they looked, 24/7. After working remotely for some time, I've started wearing less and less makeup except for my brows. I decided to research and take a chance with microblading. It's only been about an hour after having my first session but I already fell in love with the shape and attention to detail. Melissa was extremely thoughtful, thorough, and talked me through the entire process. She instilled a lot of confidence and I could tell she was determined to get the perfect result. Thank goodness for the numbing cream, so it didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. I heard tweezing beforehand tended to hurt more lol. I felt a bit of pain buy nothing to the extent where I couldn't handle. 2 out of 10 is an accurate depiction for the pain level and I think discomfort is to be expected with any microblading procedure. I'm very happy with my results and I think Melissa is wonderful at what she does! Thank you so much:) I'll be back for my second 'perfecting' session in 6 or so weeks!

Trust the 5 star & positive reviews! Melissa is super chill, friendly, supportive like you know each other before and no stranger at all. Just tell her how you want your brows done and she will work with you. She has been super patience with me the entire process and felt very comfortable with her. Also, her assistant Ashley is down to earth and chill. I finished my 2nd session and I LOVE, LOVE IT the Results!!! See you in a year for a touch up or whenever I need them done again. Don't retire.

Lip blushing by Melissa at SF Microblading

Wish I could give more than five stars! Melissa at SF Microblading did my lip blushing and WOW I wish I did this years ago. It was such an easy process and Melissa kept me informed of each step and made sure I was comfortable. She did not have an easy job...my lips were pale and uneven in places. She is a true artist to do what she did for me and I cannot recommend her highly enough. I am so so happy with the results and will be lip blushing for life! Thank you Melissa and SF Microblading!!!

Mellissa is a true gem! She did a great job on my brows--I adore them. Plus she's one of those people who gets along with everyone, loves her clients, and loves what she does. Every visit with her is so fun. It's no wonder she has so many happy customers raving about her!! I don't have great before and after photos but these sort of do the trick!

Update: Here's about 2 weeks after my 2nd session. Fuller eyebrows = Shaves at least 5 years off, 10x confident, 100x happier Melissa, you are the best!

Can't say enough good things about my experience at SF Microblading. When I came in I had fairly sparse, asymmetrical eyebrows. I had always had to do a fair amount of shaping to make them even. Melissa encouraged me to not pluck/shape them in between my appointments and was able to use my natural shape to give me a much fuller, darker brow than I thought was possible! I always thought my brows looked dark and blocky when filled in with makeup but with the microblading they are perfectly shaded and natural looking. I am now living my best makeup free life!

Before: Scant, uneven and thin. My scar from childhood is on the left.  After: Full, natural and where did that scar go?? :D

Everyone knows I am super particular about my eyebrows, and I really feel as if they make a person's face. I looked on instagram and yelp for salons in SF to pick from, and searched from San Jose to Santa Rosa for photos that I could trust [NO PHOTOSHOP/FILTERS] and they are far and few between. SF Microblading's IG has natural women, with unedited photos. I looked through her work and was so impressed with the range of styles she could perform. A lot of microbladers will listen to what you say and draw the same 2018 ombre squared off brow no matter what! That's all they can do! I saw her photos show boy brows, thick brows, thin brows and I knew she was really catering to her clients. So I made an appointment! We talked back and forth about what I wanted, my expectations, and I felt really comfortable that she was so sweet and personable. I booked for a month in advance and was writhing with anticipation the whole time. The day of: I went to the salon... It is clean and so organized [I'm a nurse so I know filthy]! The layout is comfortable and she thoroughly explained the procedure to me. She is even more gorgeous in person. Still feeling a bit anxious, she made sure I was confident and happy every minute of the appointment - soothing music, she checked in with me every few minutes, drew the outline to my specifications, and talked to me about what to expect and when. I was so impressed with her technique and use of cleaned tools. I can't gush about the cleanliness enough! OK! My brows! THEY ARE AMAZING! I wanted natural, fluffy looking and easy to maintain brows. I have a scar through one of my brows that split it in half. The scar is now invisible! I am so in LOVE! Check out my before and after and you can see how she followed my natural brow pattern, just enhancing here and there. The center isn't that hard square like I requested, and the style is exactly what I imagined! IN LOVE! Everybody has been praising my brows and asking where I got them done, and I just rave. Honestly, you get what you pay for. Get off Groupon, stop going to your friend's friend's cousin's house for a discount. It's worth it!

I have come back 3 years in a row now to have my brows microbladed (and touched up) by Melissa. I really wouldn't trust anyone else! I have always had thin, blonde brows that I constantly have to fill in. Her work on my brows has seriously improved my life so so much. The studio is beautiful and clean. I went for this year's touch up in October amongst the covid craziness and felt safe from start to finish. She's professional and welcoming and I am just so happy I never went with another Microblading studio. She's the best around! Stop looking and book here!! During the first consult years ago, she explored multiple options with me to make sure we were finding the right fit for shape, color, and style. And every year she checks in all the same in case I want to switch it up. She's always taking what you think and want into account. She really listens! She gives a wonderful natural looking brow. Nobody will ever be able to tell the difference!

Hi! Everyone if you ever been wanting to do Microblading but been scared too because it might hurt and all, NO you are wrong I got my done at San Francisco and oh my gotthere were so friendly so respectful and tell you step by step what there going to do. It was so amazing my brow looks amazing I'm so obsessed with them. I did mine with Melissa ugh I love her she is amazing. GO get them done.

After getting them done and touched up! So in love!

absolutely love Arina's work on my lips. My whole life I wished that have a nice defined contour…read morefor my lips. But my lips never had one untill I finally decided to let Arina to work on me. It took me a while to decide. I didn't havehigh expectations since was told that even permanent make up will not add a contour ..only color . My lips were getting pretty pale with aging so I decided to go for it. Arina took time to draw perfect shape before she did the job so I was confident. Now after 2 month I love the results! Most days I don't even bother to use a lipstick. My lips have a beautiful , natural looking contour I always wanted!! They look fuller and brighter. I'm now addicted:) I think it's totally worth the investment. I'm thinking to do my eyebrows next.. She is a professional who listens and delivers. Highly recommend Arina!! The space she works from is very cool and the area has tons of street parking.

Just don't do it…read more Permanent makeup is forever -- and so is a tattoo artist's mistake. I trusted Arina with my eyelids and walked away with a disaster: One eye is tattooed, and the other isn't. So now I have permanent makeup on one eye and nothing on the other -- the exact opposite of the effortless look I paid good money for. The anti-muse. When I pointed this out, on the table and in text, Arina handed me $200 and told me to go elsewhere. She refused to fix her own work. Now I'm stuck wearing makeup every single day, or else I look like a one eyed monster Picasso. And now I am hunting for another artist willing to guess the color she used -- because she offered zero help, zero documentation, and zero accountability. And I will have to pay all over again. No reputable artist wants to correct someone else's botched job. Only Arina has the history, and she walked away the moment she realized she made a mistake. Do yourself a favor: go somewhere else. Or just don't do it! Now I wish I had the luxury of having no make up on. Plus it's extremely painful. I have had other cosmetic tattoos, and none this painful (or botched).

After many years being out on the field and exposed to the elements, and stress from the job, my skin took a beating. One of my lady friends told me that men have skin too and therefore should take care of their skin. Well I can't argue with that. I decided to give Anita B Spa a try because 2 of my friends rave about them and have been going there for skin care for a long time. I did not know what to expect. When I arrived, I was greeted by Anita Chan, who owns the business. She was very friendly and supportive. There was a procedure that hurt so much but felt so good and left my pores cleared. I cried a little. When the session was done, my face felt refreshed. The ambience was relaxing and the prices were fair. I decided to keep going. Btw both Redwood City and San Francisco locations were great and finding parking wasn't too difficult. I can't wait to see what Anita has in store for her Redwood City location. After 6 months of visiting Anita B Spa and Anita B Well, my coworkers tell me I am as ugly as ever, but my skin looks great. They commented how it looks moisturized and glowing. My neighbor asked my younger sister if I was her younger brother. I am glad I set aside my misgivings and visited Anita B Spa. While they can't perform miracles, one thing is for sure, they can make one's skin healthy and glowing. Regardless whether you're a man or woman, young or seasoned, taking care of your skin is never too late and worth it. Treat yourself and make an appointment. You'll thank me later!

I was very scared and anxious about getting my perm eyeliner…read more It took me 9 months to get the courage to make the appointment. Jeannie'e work looks so good online - then I was told she was the best by my lash lady (unprompted). I wanted a 'lash enhancement" was again very scared of crazy black eyeliner- that was permanent. My eyeliner turned out so go it is crazy. I never where makeup - want to but have very teary allergy- eyes. Make up ends up all over my face. This is a great solution for me. Jeanie is so good and i am so happy thinking of getting my lips done too. Can not recommend Jeannie ENOUGH.

During the call, I was quoted a price of around $1,000. I was not told that this would require multiple sessions at that price for the goal I explained, and I only learned that after the process had already begun. I personally felt misled by that lack of clarity because it was information I needed upfront to make an informed decision. Since I had already started, I went through the three sessions I was eventually told would be needed in total. Although there was some improvement after those three sessions, the issue I came in for was still clearly visible. After the third session, there was an interaction that left me feeling very upset, belittled, and spoken to in a way that felt very harsh and dismissive. The tone of the conversation made me feel disrespected and extremely uncomfortable, and it occurred in front of another customer, which made the situation even more upsetting. Because of how I was treated and how misled I felt, I decided I could not continue treatment here despite the work not being completed to the expectation that was clearly known. I strongly encourage anyone considering this business to get complete clarity beforehand about pricing, how many sessions total could realistically be required, and what exact results you can expect. In addition to that, ask for detailed explanations, examples, and photos -- ideally from people you know personally who have had similar work done.
