I did a lot of research on Microblading while choosing a location to get it done. The place in DC that I really wanted (and in hindsight should have went with) was such a long drive from my home in York so I went with Xquisite. On Facebook there are lots of great reviews so I made an appointment and had the procedure done. The owner Racheal explained everything and I felt I was in good hands. While having the procedure, there was no pain but I was very uncomfortable because of the provocative topics she chose to chat about. Politics and abortion. She even asked me a seemingly rhetorical question, so when I did not answer she basically told me what the "right" answer is. I politely declined to continue the conversation. Fine. When she was finished, my brows looked great, although the color seemed too red for my natural brows to match. That same day I wrote a 5 star review. I now have removed the review, and should have saved it until after I knew what my true result would be. Almost all of the hair strokes disappeared. I didn't sweat bc I knew I had the second touch up. If you bring up any concerns, the stock answer you get is "everyone heals differently." While this can be true, for many reasons, I know of other places that deliver consistent results. I have never been happy with my healed results. I have expressed this, and gotten two additional touch ups. Other microblading professionals have said I should have this pigment removed. It is a blueish purple shadow in the shape of brows. I think many women, like myself, got excited over the fresh results and wrote premature glowing reviews. I would not recommend this place again. I have referred people in the past who have gone and were not happy. Another person I referred made an appointment, found out she was pregnant, and Racheal refused to refund her down payment. So with the unprofessionalism regarding the hot topics, and unsatisfactory results I'd say pay the extra money and go to DC read more
