Booked a Tuesday appointment for a back facial, because I've been searching everywhere for one in…read morethe East Bay and I was so excited when I found her website listing one for $120 for 60 minutes! Booked through the website, Paid my deposit and everything and was super excited for the experience. The description is: "Treat your back to a luxurious Back Facial that improves elasticity, hydration, and texture while stimulating collagen production for firmer, more youthful skin. With deep cleansing, exfoliation, and nourishing masks, this rejuvenating treatment revitalizes dry or uneven skin on your back, leaving it smoother and brighter." Got the confirmation text and email and confirmed everything. When I got there, Jenny very kindly informed me that she actually no longer does the back facials, she only does face facials now. I was definitely disappointed, but I had already driven there and had the day off, so I opted for the 10 step Korean facial instead ($199 before tip). She said that she was currently doing an offer for $199 instead of $300+, so I figured why not. This one is 90 minutes instead of 60 minutes. If it's your first time coming, I would recommend getting there 5 mins ish before your appointment so you can park and find the entrance to her room - there's a lot of other businesses here so I did have to take a lap to find the right door in the hallway. Pros: The whole facial experience was actually pretty great - the whole place is clean, easy parking out front. And it's very involved, in a good way. it includes massage to the face, shoulder, neck, arms, as well as all the regular facial stuff like extractions and a mask. She also uses the Plasonic machine (which can feel hot like it's burn/zapping your skin) but you can tell her if it feels too hot and she'll change the settings. She got rid of my blackheads with an ultrasonic skin scrubber and extracted all my whiteheads. There's also red light therapy. The studio is super clean, and Jenny is super sweet and nice, definitely easy to trust the Korean lady. I definitely would not mind coming back for another facial - I left there with my skin feeling super soft, she gave me some skincare tips, and it's a great location if you live in Castro Valley or San Leandro. I would definitely recommend wearing comfortable and thinner pants, because it gets pretty hot in the room with all the treatments. My highest praise would include that the extraction part wasn't as painful as other facials I've had, and the shoulder/neck/arm massage was surprisingly really helpful in relieving some pain I had from work! Cons: - I think it was really hard for me to give a 5, since I feel like I fell for false advertising thinking I was coming for a back facial. Things worked out in the end and I was due for a facial anyway - but I would have done some things differently (like not washed my hair beforehand, since it got a lot oilier after the scalp massage) if I had known I wasn't getting the back facial. Her service is great and I would highly recommend her for facials - and it sounds like her microblading is well appreciated too - but just be aware there are NO back facials here.

She's professional, detail-oriented, and easy to book with--though she fills up quickly so that's how you know her work is top tier. I always make sure to book my next appointment in advance to secure my appointment. She also had her place of business remodeled recently and it looks amazing and such a vibe.

From the very beginning, her professionalism, passion, and dedication to teaching were evident. Genny is incredibly knowledgeable and detailed in her approach. She doesn't just walk you through the steps-she takes the time to explain the why behind every technique, ensuring you truly understand the process. Her training is structured, clear, and filled with valuable insights that go far beyond the basics. She genuinely wants you to succeed, and it shows in every moment of the experience.What stood out most to me was how authentic and caring she is. Genny created a supportive and comfortable learning environment where I felt encouraged to ask questions, take my time, and grow. She was patient, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure I walked away not only certified, but confident in my skills. With Genny, you don't just gain a mentor or teacher-you gain a friend and a big sister. She's someone who believes in you, empowers you, and is there for you even beyond the training. That kind of support is rare, and I'm incredibly grateful for it. If you're serious about pursuing a career in PMU and want to be trained by someone who truly cares about your success, Genny is the one. This experience was more than just a certification-it was a turning point in my journey, and I'm so thankful to have done it with her .

I explained my concerns to her and rather than trying to convince me that, "it looked fine," she spent extra time mapping my brows to give me a perfect shape.

I think brows really frame the face and I didn't like how my eyebrows were becoming sparse with my left one thinning more. I had been curious about permanent makeup, both brows and liner, for years. I browsed online and checked out multiple artists. I read through hundreds of Yelp reviews! I did my homework and had several consults. I loved meeting Demi and she put me at ease. Demi really listened to what I wanted. She could also tell after our meeting and looking at my face what would look best on me. I was impressed by her knowledge and experience. Her salon is small, but spotless. It's located within the Sola Salon building. On the day of the treatment, Demi had booked the entire afternoon for me so she could take her time. She was very methodical. She measured my brows, sketched out an outline and asked for my approval. I started to relax at this point because I was SO nervous having never had any sort of permanent procedure. She suggested and showed me the colors she recommended. My brows were then numbed and she did both microblading and shading. I didn't feel any pain at all. After my brows were completed, Demi did my lash line eyeliner. She drew a sample line first and numbed my eyes. The procedure did not hurt, but it was more uncomfortable because it's so close to my eyeballs. :) Demi finished everything in 3 hours. She went over my after care instructions and sent me home with products to use. She was so sweet and told me to text her with any questions. The results?!! It's been 10 days and I love it! I have to admit that my brows were crazy dark the first few days. My boys were shocked. Haha. I followed Demi's aftercare instructions exactly. There were a few days of itching and flaking, but my brows are now mostly healed, a lighter color and feel good. I will see Demi in a month for a touch up. This is included and I will post more pictures then. If you're considering permanent makeup, come see Demi for a consult. She does excellent work. Plus, she's very patient and has a gentle touch.

I don't give empty praise--my loyalty speaks for itself. Over the years, I've chosen not to return to many providers who lacked skill, care, or professionalism, and I have no regrets about those decisions. I don't associate or work with people who hold themselves to low standards. Claudia is none of these. In fact, her line work is so precise that I always leave the office in awe of the symmetry and framing only someone with true talent can achieve. She's nitpicky in the right way: thoughtful, meticulous, and intentional. If you want a provider who genuinely cares about their craft, forms a real connection with clients, and delivers excellent results, go to Claudia--you won't be disappointed.

And I have tried my hardest to refrain from scratching. Mary Orlando has 17 years of experience under her belt now. She is a perfectionist and is very crafty when it comes to measuring your face up to ensure the work she does on you will maintain a balance to your features. She has clients coming to see her from all over the bay area that she tries to make it as convenient as possible for you to get to her. I did not want to drive all the way from SSF to Castro Valley so she offered to pick me up from the Bart station and dropped me off when we were done. I don't think anyone would do that for their client. I first found out about Mary through a friend's cousin (she had her eyebrows done by Mary). Mary charges around $400 for a first time customer, which includes a free touch-up, and $150 per visit after that. I think it's a great investment considering that it lasts up to 2-3 years when you take good care of them (especially during its healing process). I had my brows done by a lady named Kanako @ Venus Permanent in downtown SF previously, but the color didn't last more than a year (which is why I had to find someone else better). She also did not accept appointments on weekends. A major plus: Mary will accept your appointment on weekends and is fairly flexible!!! Note: She accepts cash or check only. No credit cards.
