There are moments in life when someone walks in and changes everything…read more For me, that person is Elsa. Five years ago, a chemical peel left me with a severe burn and a raised, colorless scar in the very center of my face. It is impossible to explain what that does to a person's spirit. Every conversation, every photo, every glance in the mirror became a reminder of something I desperately wished I could hide. I stopped recognizing myself.I stopped feeling confident. Some days, I even avoided looking people in the eye because I was so ashamed of how visible it was. I tried to fix it. I flew twice to a well-known clinic in Beverly Hills hoping for relief. While there were small improvements, the reality of traveling back and forth from Chicago made it impossible to continue. Then I found Elsa and my life truly began to change. From the moment we met, she wrapped me in a sense of calm and understanding. She listened to me in a way few people ever had. I felt seen, not just as someone with a scar, but as a person who had been carrying years of hurt and insecurity. My scar was stubborn. It didn't respond easily. But Elsa never once made me feel hopeless. Her patience, her determination, and her belief that we would get there never wavered, even when mine did. And somehow, she did what I had started to believe was impossible. Today, the scar that once defined my reflection is barely noticeable. I look in the mirror and feel relief instead of heartbreak. Elsa didn't just camouflage my scar. She gave me my confidence back. In so many ways, she gave me my life back. There are truly no words big enough for the gift she has given me, but I hope she knows I will carry gratitude in my heart forever.

Elsa has a heart of gold as she donates her time and expertise to help victims who have been scared from breast surgeries from cancer and traumas or other accidents who feel there's no hope in the scars they've endured. I cherish Elsa and her amazing heart and talent. I love my brows and lip liner!!!! You know I'll be back ! Thank you Elsa for everything you do! I

Wow! Lisa is amazing! She did makeup for my mother and sister and I for my wedding this weekend and…read morebesides the fact she is just so friendly and fun to talk to...she does amazing work! My makeup lasted the whole night! The eyelashes were also extremely comfortable and didn't budge a bit! She's also great about making sure you have the look you want. She tweaked some things last minute for me without a problem. My sister who really doesn't wear makeup much and is kinda picky about it LOVED what Lisa did! My mother also felt like a queen! Lisa was so kind to all of us and the experience was something I'll fondly remember! Lastly, I was experiencing many emotions (as a bride does the afternoon of their wedding) and she was so understanding and professional. Book Lisa if you want beautiful makeup and fun experience! *Her sense of humor is also super awesome!*

I was a little nervous but was sick of having to color in and shape brows everyday and worried the makeup would rub off. Lisa made me feel very at ease. The procedure was painless.

Lana, will promise you that she is the best, but she will mess your brows up including scarring…read moreyour skin. Also, she charged me $1,000.00 for subpar work and if you're not happy with her work, she charges you when you want her work corrected. She is a scam. Please do not use her for brow services. my eyebrows were lopsided when she finished. I spent additional money having to fly to Dallas to an expert who erased her sloppy work, which cost me an additional $750.00 for 3 different sessions to clean up her mess in addition to airfare expenses for 3 trips. Be very careful who you trust with your face. You can hide your hands, but you can't hide your face.

As of this review (1/18/22), Lana has been in the ICU with Covid for two and a half weeks (so if…read moreyou're contacting her for appointments she may be slow to respond). Not knowing this I contacted her because I had some bad microblading done on my eyebrows yesterday and was freaking out and in desperate need of professional advice. She responded to me, FROM HER ICU BED, and has been giving me detailed instructions on how to manage the correction. If this isn't compassionate professionalism, I don't know what is. I'd give her ten stars if I could. I look forward to having her do my eyebrows the correct way once she's healed. Keep fighting the good fight, Lana!!!

1st. Called to make an appointment same day and they were very accommodating. Great!…read more2nd. Asked if location was 20th st and she said yes. Hung up the phone. Then I get a text stating that they are doing renovations and I would need to go to a residential address. Ok, I gave them benefit of the doubt. I arrive. It is obviously that persons home. I go down to the basement with the lady. It was weird because it looked like a complete set up was there but it was a mess. Ok. Whatever, sometimes you have to do what you have to do. Later the lady tells me that they are moving from that location instead because of cost of the rent. Ok. I guess sometImeS it's hard to explain over the phone and what she said would have been easier. 3rd. While getting my lashes done, there were people screaming and yelling upstairs and were talking about being drunk. Super unprofessional. But I was ok with it cause like I said sometimes you make stuff work if they really were having renovations 4th. After 3.5 hours, I finally see my lashes. I can say I was pretty comfy as far as the chair goes. I dozed off a little. My lashes were great. They would be absolutely perfect if I ask for short lashes that were all one length. I asked for long lashes that has lots of varyIng lengths and volume so they looked a little more natural. Ok. Whatever. They didn't look bad my any means so I cannot really get that mad. I know what my lashes can handle and the length and diameter so I was confused by her decision to do exactly what I didn't want. 5th This is what reaaly turned me off. When we went upstairs to do payment, the mom was freaking out in the lady that did my lashes because she didn't know what she did and didn't understand how I was going to pay. She was being so rude and talk about me with me right there outside of the door. She never just came out and asked and tried to figure it out. I also got charge $185 when I thought I booked for the type that was $150. Not a big deal. They did give me 20% off for being a new client. I found it really odd that the lady/daughter didnt know how to take payment for her own services and that the mother was getting so upset with her. I'm not sure if the lady was even of age after that conversation. But anyways, I just don't feel like the professionalism is there. I understand things happen but they should have said no we don't have any appointments when I originally called. It looked like a nice place online and some reviews that seemed promising but overall it was a let down and I was uncomfortable. Edited: after doing some research, I found out my lash lady is not licensed and has not graduated high school yet!! What??

Went to Silvia for microblading. Didn't get deep enough so none of the pigment stayed. We were…read moreemailing back and forth about the appointment before that, but when I reached back out to say the pigment didn't stay, she asked me who I was because she didn't remember me. I had to send a picture of myself. Then after me trying to ask 3 times if she could fix it she just started ignoring me. Never heard from her again. I now have to pay hundreds for removal and correction. It's cheap for a reason! Invest a little more money in a professional.
