My lashes are always in great condition, she takes the time to understand what style lashes you want, and is a perfectionist (which is so important when it comes to the level of detail needed). 5 stars all around - also great parking and super clean / private studio.

I came across Yelp reviews and learned about Lush Eye Bar. I met with Thanh, who educated me about lash growth and the lifespan of each lash, explaining how they differ. We started with a natural look and eventually chose the wispy style of lashes that best suited my face shape and eyes. Thanh is patient, provides great recommendations, and has extensive knowledge gained from over a decade of experience. I look forward to staying with Thanh and continue to see her every 2-3 weeks for maintenance. Thank you, Thanh!

Pro-tip: schedule your next few appointments ahead of time, as they can get pretty busy. + Communication and professionalism: Shireen always responds promptly and kindly to my messages. She's super professional, cool, and her attention to detail when applying lashes is just incredible. + Ambience: the music Shireen plays is always on point! The bed is extremely comfortable, and there's lots of light in the room if you're there during the day. + Quality of work: the amount of compliments I've received on my lashes is a true testament of the quality of work done at the AfterLash. My lashes look natural, yet voluminous, and they last a long time. I highly recommend following all of the cleaning/maintenance rules (i.e. can't get them wet 48 hours after applying them) to ensure your lashes stay on as long as possible. That said, AfterLash gets a well-deserved 5 stars. If you're looking for a new lash spot in the East Bay, just save yourself some time and go for the AfterLash.

Shortly after I was help by a different lady she was nice and took her time. While I was getting them done the other girl was paying for her eyebrow service. The worker asked cash or card she said card and the worker proceeded to say her total was 12 dollars. Once the other worker was done with my brows she asked me cash or card. I said card today then she told me my total was 13 dollars because of the card fee. I was a little confused because the girl before me paid 12 and paid in card. I didn't say anything I just paid the 13 dollars but it is illegal to charge card fees especially on debit cards. Not to mention I've been to this place multiple times and paid 12 when using my card. I don't mind leaving a tip but it did rub me the wrong way.

I'm of Asian descent so my bio eyelashes are short and thin, but Maria always works her magic in making my eyelashes look fuller and beautiful without them feeling heavy or appearing unnatural. She uses high quality products from her cleaning solution to her glue and eyelashes. She always keeps her station clean and tools sanitized. Did I mention that she's a licensed registered nurse?? That alone gives me added confidence that I'm always in good hands with Maria! Our sessions together are always relaxing to the point that I fall asleep! Warm blanket and soothing music as I get beautified, how could I not?! In recent years, as Maria has built more and more clientele, I have also gotten my eyelashes done by Paula and Janeen who are also fantastic! Give them a try, you won't regret it!

The membership discount is such a great perk and makes it easy to come back regularly. I usually go either by myself for some much needed self care or with a friend, and we book the couples massage. I love that we get a few minutes to chat before and after. The location is perfect too. It is so easy to plan a massage and then grab food nearby to extend the experience. Linda and Judy are my absolute favorites. They are both incredibly skilled, attentive, and consistent. I always leave feeling relaxed and reset. Highly recommend if you are looking for a welcoming, professional spa with a great atmosphere

Unfortunately I have to update my review to reflect my past few visits. I asked for Gina this time…read morebased on other reviews that said she focused well on their problem areas. This was sadly not my experience... I'm not sure what the little paper given at the beginning is supposed to be for, because most of the masseuses seem to treat the areas circled as "don't touch" rather than "focus on." This has happened to me multiple times at My Beauty Spa, where the areas I've asked for have remained untouched (especially the hands. I work with my hands and desperately need hand massage). The only masseuses so far who have given me a good massage here are Anna (no longer listed as an employee) and Linda or Judy (one did my massage and one did my partner's, I cannot remember which). I've now had poor experiences with 3 other masseuses here. I've attached an image -- circled in green are the areas I asked for focus, and circled in orange are the areas I was massaged. I got a 90 minute massage today and of the 90 minutes, about 1-2 minutes total was spent on my hands, less than 10 minutes on my neck/jaw/traps, and the area of glutes I circles was just glided over. I instead got about 30 minutes straight of shoulder blade scraping with elbow, 10 mins per side scraping my outer thighs, 25 mins on calves and feet. About 90% of the massage was done with elbows and knuckles, hardly any finger pressure was done -- I understand this technique is used to avoid hand strain, but it should not be so imbalanced. I can take very deep pressure and this massage hurt me, because she was using bone over bone. You should not use the elbow and forearm bone, or knuckles, to massage over bones and joints. Bone on bone is painful. She also randomly turned on the light and left the room without saying anything, I assume to gather some supplies, but it would be courteous to mention. I left my massage in more pain than when I came in. When I told the receptionist at checkout and showed her what was actually massaged on the map, no resolution was offered. She just turned the checkout screen with the $115 total toward me, and said next time I can just tell them at the front desk again to make sure the masseuse does the circled areas. Isn't that what I already did though? Why did I even fill out the paper at all if you are not giving it to the masseuse to focus on the areas circled? I never saw my paper hung on the door of my room or sitting in the room at all before or after the massage, though other rooms did have papers hung on the door mine did not. I paid in cash as well -- the cash discount was not honored, and no concession was offered for my pain upon leaving or for the complete lack of focus on my problem areas. I'm in a lot of pain now and even more tense than before in the problem areas, and extremely stressed out. I needed this massage desperately due to stress, chronic pain, and burnout. Now I have to wait for what they've done to heal and pay again for someone else to fix me, as I'm so incredibly tense. Whatever she did on my shoulder blades made the pain in my neck and trapezius much worse. I'm really sad and disappointed. I just paid $125 with tip (normally I'd tip more if it was well done) to get worse, essentially. I'm sitting here rubbing my sore neck and shoulders in my car and crying from the stress. This isn't even considering a previous time I came in for massage and the masseuse (Fion) was literally on her phone the first 15 minutes and barely massaging me with one hand. That time, I just walked out because it was so ridiculous. Unfortunately I don't find My Beauty Spa a reliable place for massage anymore which is sad because when Anna was there I would come every other week.
