I had my brows laminated for the first time ever with Christina. She came highly recommended to me, but ultimately, now having had my brows done by another artist, I would not go to Christina again. First, I feel she could've been kinder when she missed my messages over a five day period. I never received an apology and in person, she was not the warmest person. That's fine, though, not everyone needs to be super bubbly! Second, I thought it was incredibly uncomfortable to sit in a chair with no back support for the entire duration of my brow appointment, which was close to an hour. Again, having now gone to another artist, most have a bed where you can lay down and relax. I actually asked her about this and she said the bed is only used for lashes. Finally, I thought she did a fine job, but having had them done by another artist, I like my brows much better by the new artist. All of this said, I had initially gone to her once before just for shaping and tinting and I thought she did a great job. I've attached a photo of that service. The only downside is that the tint faded extremely fast. read more

I've been going to Christina for about a year. Her attention to detail has my eyebrows looking so good. I love her honesty...I'm not going to get my full eyebrows back after living through the 90's but her artistry has given my eyebrows life. read more

Relaxing and private environment. There aren't any other distractions so you are Christina's focus. She took the time to explain the issues of my current brows and what she was doing to try to fix them/shape them. The end result was amazing and exceeded my expectations by far. I've had my brows done once before and it wasn't a good experience. I'll be going to Christina from now on! read more

I had my first brow lamination by Christina and I absolutely love them! I have pretty good brows already but she took them to the next level and fixed some imperfections they had. I no longer need to fill those areas out and it saves me time every day for my busy schedule. One less thing to do. Yay! Gracias! read more

My daughter and I have been going to Christina for a while. She is caring and meticulous with an eye to detail. She has saved us from mishaps and bad planning. Christina is a consummate professional and our go to for brows. It took a long time for me to find someone of her caliber. So happy we did. read more

I've been seeing Christina for years, including during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her brow work is consistently excellent- I wouldn't go anywhere else. I can also vouch for everything Britt F. described in their 4/2/21 review. I have very closely adhered to public health guidelines throughout the pandemic and felt comfortable visiting Christina. read more

I will tell you, I had a brow girl that I loved and trusted. When she stopped doing brows, I was lost! I asked who she trusted and Christina was recommended. I was nervous to try anyone new but I was starting to look like a cave woman. I contacted Christina and I'm so glad I did!!! She is the best! I highly recommend her and have since gotten so many compliments on my brows. I really want to do lashes with her one of these days (ain't got no where to look cute for yet...). My husband is even a fan and she cleans him up so nicely! My husband is a *sensitive* brow guy and tears up every time we do them but when we moved to Christina, he hadn't shed a single tear from pain. She makes it so easy to book. She's really fairly priced and the service is great. If you're looking for a brow girl, she is the GO-TO! Thanks for always making me look like I have my life together! :) read more

The only way to describe Christina's hands pure magic. It is a spa like feeling for your eyebrows. I have never been to an eyebrow appointment and learned so much. I love it when the service providers take the time to listen to what you want and educate you. Christina you are a true artist and teacher. I can't wait to come back. Also can I say, I know it was waxing...but it didn't hurt. You have gained a loyal customer. read more

Updated review to include my experiences during COVID. Christina strictly follows protocol, ensuring both her clients and she remain safe and feel comfortable. Some of the protocols in place include, but not limited to, waiting outside until she lets you in, but not before a temp check, cleaning/sanitizing, use protective gear (face mask AND shield, and gloves), no food/drinks as your mask is not to be removed for any reason, etc etc. Christina is amazingly talented small business owner that I highly recommend : ) read more

I am very happy with my eyebrows done by Christina. I felt safe with the covid protocols in place at her salon. I would highly recommend Christina. read more

I love Christina's little studio , super cute ! She is very covid safe . Her work is ahhhhhmazing !! My eyebrows always look so flawless , I am amazed every time ! My friends and families always ask where I get my eyebrows done . This is the place you need to go!! read more

I came to Christina after giving up on threading. Every time I see her for my brows she does an amazing and detailed job! She takes her time and shapes them perfectly. She does such a great job that I get my brows done once every 4 weeks and do not even need to touch my brows until my next appointment. Do yourself a favor and book your appointment with Christina! read more

Christina is amazing very clean very organized super Polite and she is Amazing very talented I'm so happy with my eyebrows so glad my niece recommended me to her thank you for what you do !! read more

She is good but nothing extravagant Especially for the 45$ she charges!!!! I see some people say her prices are reasonable... if you think $45 is reasonable for eyebrow shaping then don't mind this review. read more

I started my eyebrow journey with Christina about 3 months ago. Christina is attentive, and doesn't rush like a lot of other salons that I've been to. Her space is sooo clean, and calming. Parking is right next door in the parking garage which is validated or you can find street parking most of the time. In the last 3 months my brows have completely transformed because of Christina! read more

I had my brows shaped and tinted by Christina for the first time today - it definitely won't be the last. My brows have never looked this good! They are typically pale and sparse, but she took her time and blended the perfect color to complement my skin and hair, and I was impressed at her meticulousness. I highly recommend her. read more

I found Christina on Yelp, made an appointment once to give it a try and have been going for over a year now and my eyebrows have never looked better! I keep up with my appointments and she's done a great job; her business is super clean and relaxing. I can finally say I love my eyebrows and it's thanks to her talent! read more

So I found Beauty Bee on a general Google search and just picked a place based on appearance of website, price, and location. Next time, I'm going to do more research. I'm giving it two stars because my visit there was in last July and I was going to give her six (okay, so it's been seven) months to get back to me. Christina is really nice, her new location is small and hidden, but really charming once you're in there. I did eyelash extensions and there were moments where I felt like my eyelid was pinched. There were other instances where I felt like some of the glue might have gotten in my eye. I'm not sure. Anyway, when I emerged from the 2 hour session, my eyes were bloodshot and my eyelids were a bit swollen. She assured me this would subside. The next morning, my eyes were even worse and still swollen. I couldn't even put on my contact lenses! I had to text her super early and ask her to remove the lashes because I had a WEDDING to be in THAT DAY. Thank goodness she was able to squeeze me in. Hence the other star. She didn't charge me for the removal of the lashes, and she called me the Monday after. She let me know that she was going to get some glue that was suitable for sensitive skin and we would do a test run for that. She also said she wouldn't cash my check. I told her she should go ahead and cash it because she did all the work, but maybe we could work something out with the other glue. I still haven't heard from her. But she did go ahead and cash that check with the generous tip. So in the end, I ended up $200+ short, red swollen eyes, no eyelash extensions, and very lovely memories in photos for my event. SWEET. (not.) read more

Christina did a fabulous job of my eyebrows and she's so lovely and warm. I would highly recommend her to anyone in the area who is looking to have their eyebrows done read more

The beauty bee is nice. In terms of brows, i expected more... Way more. I have scant eyebrows so i was hoping she could make something out of them, especially for the price. I mean my nail salon lady in upland gave some nice brows for less than 10 bucks. I thought if i paid more to a person who specializes in brows, i'd get the brows i always hoped for. Nope. Post waxing and brow tinting my brows looked like C's. Formless. Maybe she works magic with fuller brows...scant brows are a no go it seems. She is really nice though. read more

I booked my first appointment with Christina before she announced the Yelp discount and she still gave it to me. Now that's what I call great customer service. She was sweet and nice but not overbearingly nice and more importantly, she did a FANTASTIC job on my eyebrows. She took awhile since it was my first time and she had to start setting the shape. I know I have the funkiest eyebrows ever. They curl up at the ends like mustaches and they have bald spots but somehow she made my eyebrows look fuller. I highly recommend her. read more

I finally found Christina again through Yelp =) I had been letting my brows grow out so she would have plenty to play with lol. When I finally came in to see Christina, the place was a little hard to find but the good thing is there is plenty of parking. We discussed my brows and what the plan was before she even touched anything. Christina works thorougly and meticulously. But the whole time she is still friendly and we had a pleasant conversation. As usual, I was not disappointed. My eyebrows look great and I saw my bf afterward. He looked at me and then told me how cute I looked! There is nothing better than that. I would recommend Christina to anyone. read more

PROS: Parking lot galore in the back (with a 48 hr limit. funny), Does an awesome job on lashes & eyebrows, Lots of care, Shes cool too. CONS: I cant really think of any. Christina is the best, what can I say. She takes her time to do it right. Give her a call and see for yourself. read more

By the time I found Christina Medrano, my eyebrows were a thin mess. I had been abandoned by my favorite brow gal at Anastasia and was on the search for someone to replace her with. I tried two different people back at Anastasia and a girl at the Threadbar, none of whom, could compare. I finally decided (after a friend gave me a hard nudge) to try Brauhaus in Old Town Pasadena. I must admit that I was a bit apprehensive at first, since Christina is billed solely as a make up artist on the Brauhaus website, and I don't wear any make up. However, after sitting in Christina's chair that first day, I could not have been more thrilled with the job that she did with my brows! It wasn't until I tried to make my third appointment with Christina at Brauhaus, that I found out that she was venturing out on her own. I was sorely disappointed, because I didn't know where she went and was on the brink of having to start my search for a new brow girl AGAIN... I can't tell you how glad I was the day that Christina contacted me to let me know of her whereabouts. I now visit with Christina at her new location inside of Valerie's Hair Studio in Sierra Madre. It is a bit of a drive, but it is completely worth it! She really takes her time to make sure that my brows are proportional and well-shaped before she puts on the finishing touches and lets me leave her chair. I am never disappointed with her work and will continue to be a customer of hers for as long as she's in the business. So for anyone searching for a great brow girl or make up artist, it is safe to say that Christina Medrano at Beauty Bee Studio, should be one of the first people that you contact. :) read more

I have been coming to Beauty Bee Studio for about 3 years now, I have never been so happy with my brows lashes or makeup. Christina is a perfectionist and never rushes through her service. Christina always listens to my needs and works with me accordingly. I am a hair dresser in Pasadena and know how important it is to give good customer service and impeccable work and she always delivers, I refer ALL of my clients that are looking for the services she provides and not ONE has ever left unhappy. Thank You Christina your a gem (And the parking is AWESOME) read more

First time getting my eyebrows done professionally and it was amazing! Christian was able to take me under a short notice and did a great job! She really cares about the customer and the health of their brows. The experience was practically painless and my brows looked the best they've ever had. read more

Christina is top-notch. Professional & COVID-19 safe. I have been seeing her for 3 years now to bless my brows! Can't see myself going anywhere else. read more

Christina Medrano is amazing! She really does know her craft and is passionate about her work. I decided to get lash extensions for my birthday. I was pleased with the results. With the extensions, I didn't need any makeup because my eyelashes looked long and thick naturally. Christina really makes sure that you are comfortable throughout the whole process which put me at ease. I was so relaxed that I almost fell asleep...(having a mini massage on my face afterwards was unexpected and a plus)... read more

Christina is seriously a brow magician. My eyebrows are not the best but she makes them look so full and glamorous. I always get compliments after I get them done with her. She is very profesional, takes the time to educate, makes you feel safe during these times, and just so sweet! I highly recommend her!! read more

Christina is a beast tamer. I always drag myself in a month too late with crazy looking old man brows that have no discernible shape. She patiently plucks and waxes through the wreckage and TA-DA! I've got two perfectly sculpted eyebrows. She also offers semi-permanent lash extensions that I'm pretty curious about. Go to Christina! Beautiful brows guaranteed! read more

After seeing Christina's work on Instagram I was curious to see what magic she could work on my eyebrows and she surely did not disappoint. My eyebrows are not too thin or too think, just regular but they do have some patchy areas. I wanted my eyebrows to look well groomed but natural and not overly structured, or too perfect and I really don't like when eyebrows are too filled in. Christina really listened to my concerns and I love my eyebrows. They look healthy and well groomed and frame my face nicely. If you're looking for someone who is going to really evaluate your brows and not just wax/thread arbitrarily then Christina is your girl! She takes her time and makes brows look amazing. read more

Christina Bee Artistry - Before and after. Look at what a difference! Love 'em! - Eyelash Service Near Me - Pasadena, California

This review is long over do. I've been going to Christina of Beauty Bee for a little over a year and I cannot praise her enough! She is a true expert in her field and really goes that extra mile to ensure her clients are happy. I love that she actually cares about the health of my lashes and always makes them look so beautiful and natural...my lashes were quite scarce when I first went to her, now they are healthier than ever!!! I've also had her do my make up for a wedding and I received so many compliments that I just had to book her again! I'm a truly happy girl! Thank you Christina, you are my lash angel read more

I have been going to Christina for many years. She is a lovely person and a brow perfectionist! I have followed her to 3 different locations over the years, and would not want to go anywhere else. I had to manage without her much of this past year during COVID. She has been extremely careful to follow safe protocols, and I feel comfortable going there. When I started with Christina, my brows were thin and a mess. I have received nice comments from strangers about my "perfect" brows. I'm not young anymore, and my brows have never looked better. read more

I heard about Christina from a friend of mine, and I am so glad she has told me about her excellent brow service. She definitely caters your brows to how you want them and what works best for you. I also love how she takes her time with each client. Ever since I started going to her I've been getting so many compliments on my brows! What really solidified it was when my brother actually noticed how nice my brows were and I have gotten my brows done several times by others. Needless to say, I always set up my next appointment after a session. It's something that I look forward to every time because who doesn't love having nicely groomed brows? read more

I tried a few different eyebrow artists before I found Christina. She is very meticulous and is excellent at what she does. I always leave feeling completely beautified! My eyebrows always look natural and full after our appointments. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to get their eyebrows done. read more

Christina is THE BEST! I don't have naturally full eyebrows but since seeing her my brows look fuller than ever! Brows are so important and I highly recommend Christina! read more

I have never really given TLC to my brows and was hoping to have them shaped by someone who would have a better vision for what my brows could be as well as to learn from him/her about how I could make them look their best. I was so lucky to stumble across Christina's positive yelp rating and could not be more thankful that I visited her. I had no idea that my brows could look so full while also looking natural (i.e. not penciled-in.) Christina did an incredible job and beyond that, she was so gracious with answering my questions and showing me how I could apply make up to give them this natural, full look. She is professional, patient, and kind. read more

Christina Bee Artistry - Thank you for giving me beautiful brows, Christina! - Eyelash Service Near Me - Pasadena, California

Christina is the absolute best!!! If you want professional service and beautiful comfortable eyelashes - I cannot recommend anyone better than Christina. Before I came here, I was having lashes done at a different place. Since I didn't have anywhere else to compare with, I thought that what I was experiencing was normal. But it wasn't. My previous lashes didn't fit my own so they were too heavy. They twirled constantly and when the technician put them on, she was always pinching and hurting me. I thought this was normal until I found Christina. Christina saw my problem immediately and corrected my problems. Now my lashes feel like my own and she puts them on beautifully. I travel from out of state (Colorado) to have her keep up my lashes. I love how she conducts her business. She is professional, kind, never hurried and keeps accurate appointments. Best of all her lashes are super comfortable and I finally have the lashes that make me feel normal. Thanks Christina! read more

There's several ways in which Christina stands apart from the rest. She was great at communicating with me what to expect from our session. We spent several minutes discussing my lash goals and what kind of look I was trying to achieve. She was patient with me even though I wore mascara to my appointment which is a big no no! Now I know ;) Christina really takes her time when working on your lashes. Her work clearly displays her knowledge and expertise in her craft. You can tell how passionate she is about what she does and keeping her clients happy. The result was fuller, longer lashes that looked so beautiful and natural. I would definitely recommend her services and am looking forward to going back soon! read more

I recently moved to Pasadena and needed to find someone to do my brows, I searched and searched and came across mediocre places. Then, I found Christina and she was able to fix my brows that ended up thinner and not the shape I liked. After a couple of sessions my brows started to look amazing, I have been going to her now for about 4 months and my brows look better than ever! She is the best, takes her time and is incredible at what she does. I almost don't want to tell everyone so I can keep her my secret, but she truly is so great. read more
