    Lashes by Mindy
    Michelle H.

    After ~2 years of being in SA, I think I finally found my new lash girl. I have always had my lashes done in Dallas and so it was difficult for me to let that go and find someone actually in town. I've looked at countless before & after pictures and read reviews about different lash technicians. So I decided to take a risk and reach out to Mindy (who was reasonably priced compared to others in the SA area). Unlike a few others who never responded back, Mindy answered all my questions and was able to squeeze me in last minute. At the appt, Mindy was friendly, knowledgeable (she's been doing lashes for over 10 years), patient, and helpful. I was able to address my concerns, tell her the look I wanted, and the process did not take anymore than an hour. The glue she used did not sting or irritate my eyes. It was only red for a brief period due to the fumes. She even took time to discuss proper lash care. I am pregnant so she constantly made sure I was comfortable and did what she needed to accommodate the way I was laying. Because she is the only lash person at the salon and gets booked up quickly I went ahead and scheduled my refill appointments for the next few months. I am glad Mindy was able to work with my very few, straight, thin lashes. It looked surprisingly full for the first application. I am happy. Think I found me a SA lash girl!

    I am so pleased with the lashes that I had added by Mindy. One of Mindy's clients (Nicole) posted a random selfie on social media and the first thing I noticed were here lashes! I knew that I wanted gorgeous lashes as well. Mindy is an absolute delight! The next day I went to get fills by her uncle, another 5-star experience! Thank you Encino Nails for great work and phenomenal customer service!

    I decided that I wanted to get eyelash extensions done and after an hour of research I came across Mindy's work. I feel in love instantly and decided to call to make an appointment. I am traveling in a week and was hoping to get an appointment before and luckily I was able to get one. Mindy has exceptional customer service and very knowledgeable when it comes to eyelash extensions. Needless to say my lashes are the BOMB now! Oh my gosh I love them! Do not hesitate to make your appointment with Mindy, she will change your life with her work!

    Moving to a new city is hard but finding a new nail salon is even harder. Thank goodness I found this wonderful little place not too far from my new home. Mindy and her staff are very welcoming, friendly and very attentive. My pedicure was fantastic, my nails were exactly as I wanted them, and I am in love with my lashes. During my visit I met a lady that had been a faithful customer since they opened years ago. This is very telling of a business, the staff, and quality of work. I also enjoyed watching how the welcomed and acknowledged every person that came in either with a warm welcome or by their first name. Thank you, Encino Nails for making my visit so enjoyable. Looking forward to many more visits!

    Mindy did a fantastic job on my eyelash extensions this past weekend! Going on almost day 4, and no fallout. Ive gotten my lashes done before in the past by someone else and my lashes were falling out by the next day. I know everyone's lashes are different but I felt like Mindy really knew her stuff and had great tips on how to prolong the life of the extensions. The pedicure I received there was also great! No disappointments.

    Mindy is literally the sweetest person I've ever met. I got a full set of lashes today and I'm so excited to keep coming back. She gave me so much info on the lashes and lash care so that I could get the most out of my lashes. She consistently made sure I was comfortable and also that I was happy with the outcome. I'm so happy with how they turned out, it's exactly what I wanted.

    Mindy is so talented! I have been coming here for 10 years!! This is our go to place for manicure, pedicure, and lashes. I always have people asking me about my manicure and lashes. My entire family including in-laws come here because they provide exceptional service and treat us like family. It is super clean! Mindy, Ahn, Kim, Jenny, and the entire group do a great job! Support this local business. You will love how you look and feel!!

    Love them!

    MINDY does my eyelashes and she is incredible!!! Besides the fact that she's so so sweet, she does an amazing job with my stubby lashes. I personally think my lashes are hard to build on cuz they are thin and short but she manages to get them as full, fluffy and thick for me as she can (cuz that's what I go for). Every time I go in for my scheduled fill, my lashes still look super fabulous as though I don't even need the fill...which means when I get the fill, they are perfection! On top of that, her prices are very fair and affordable. I definitely recommend her!

    Got my eyelashes back!!!

    I've been coming to Mindy for years!!! They have lost some clients due to covid. Support small business San Antonio! The whole team abides by mask guidelines.

    I'm OBSESSED with my lash extensions from Encino Nails. They have become a regular part of my beauty routine. I get at least 3-4 compliments a week on my lashes from friends, coworkers, complete strangers, etc. It takes about an hour or so for Mindy to get the initial set of lashes on. I like mine to be full and long but still look natural. She achieves this perfectly and uses high quality mink lashes. I follow her aftercare instructions and I don't even see a single lash come loose for at least the first 4 days. When I do, it's a single lash that had grown out and fallen off. No clumps of lashes falling out, and my own lashes don't get pulled out. I pretty much sleep on my side at night, but I like to rest my head on my hand which conveniently prevents the lashes from getting smushed in the pillows. I wash them very gently before bed and upon waking up and scrub in between them with the microfiber brush that Mindy gives you. Then I brush them gently with a spooly (also provided) to separate them and keep them neat. I have yet to feel the need to use eyeliner with these lashes, and mascara is not needed (or recommended, it may loosen the bond.) I use eyeshadows on the weekend and have no problem keeping my lashes and lids clean and healthy. With my maintenance (along with working out 4-5 times a week), I need a refill about every 3 weeks, simply because by then my own lashes have grown out and about 1/3 to 1/2 of the extensions have thinned out. I can tell when it's time because I can see my own lashes in between the darker, longer extensions. Sometimes a few extensions can twist or turn sideways as they grow out. I comb them into place so as not to yank out my natural lash if it's not ready to fall out yet. Mindy takes about 30 min to complete a refill. She removes any very loose lashes and just fills in between wherever your new natural lashes have come in. It's painless and there is no pinching or stinging feeling like my friends have sometimes described in other places. The price for extensions here beat everywhere else (except for the cheap cluster lash places which are TERRIBLE) and there is no sacrifice in quality. I can balance out what I spend on lash refills by eating 2-3 less fast food meals a month. Beautifying in more ways than one!

First, Sofy is an absolute delight of a woman--warm, welcoming, genuine, and an overall positive person. She knew what I wanted and was able to get it done in good and efficient time. She also did great on styling after- it held for longer than most. The price is incredibly fair- so for those of us looking for a good deal for hair- this is also a good choice. If you're considering a new place, I highly recommend this salon. Just go meet Sofy and you will see what I mean. There, you're not just an appt, you're a person -- and for me -- a happy one.

I've always wanted to go in and get some info, as it looks like a nice little family salon in my new neighborhood. Well, I fortunately got that chance 2 weeks ago when my new stylist stood me up. I have had the worst luck with stylist since moving to SA 3 years ago. My last gal, was 15-45 mins late every appt, I finally got fed up with her wasting my time. After planning something nice for myself (as a mother, I rarely do) I was incredibly upset that this new stylist stood me up on a Wednesday afternoon. So on my way back home, I figured I'd at least stop in to see if someone could salvage my day. I walked in about a min before her next client, Sofy consoled me and assured me that if I could wait 15mins for her to do a quick male trim, she would take care of me. It wasn't any easy ask either, I needed a trim, root touch up and highlights on a whim. Luckily for me, she didn't have anything else booked for her afternoon, so it became the beginning of a lovely relationship. Sofy is an Indian angel and I believe things worked out that day, the way they did, so that I could meet Sofy, my lovely new stylist. I'll be taking the whole family next!
