    Lashes w mascara after the service (top) vs before (bottom).

    I booked an appointment for a brow lamination/tint and lash lift/tint with "any available artists."last week. I'll start by saying the brow service was great. I forget the artists name, but she was friendly and walked me through everything she was doing as she's doing it. My lash service was with Courtney. Not at all the same friendly personality, which is fine as long as my service is done well. During the first application step she mentioned my lashes were giving her a difficult time and I mentioned I do use a serum--I've had the same service done in past while using the same serum with zero issues. During the next step when she applied the lotion she left without saying anything--and was gone for what felt like forever. When she returned, she removed the product and did the tint (or so I thought). At the end the removal of my lashes from the shield was not effortless with tugging on lashes to separate. The finished product seemed seemed okay, not how it usually looks after and there was residue all around my eye. I also felt like my lashes appeared shorter but figured it was just the new curl to them and I was over analyzing it. However once home and I got a better look I saw how poor of a job was done. For starters my lashes are crimped in areas, they're a lighter color than my natural brown color (asked for black tint), seem frayed at the ends, and are shorter and thinner than my natural lashes. There were also several loose lashes around my eyes. A few hours later, I had many more lashes falling out and in clumps bc of the remaining residue on my lashes. I'll add I am not new to these services, I am familiar w the process and what to anticipate for processing times. This seemed to take far longer than typical which makes me believe they were over processed. The last time I had these services done here (different artists) I was very pleased and loved them. Here are some photos of my lashes after the service. Also a photo to see the difference of my lashes when wearing mascara now vs how they looked just before the service.

    I went in to get a lash lift as I have done several times before and walked out looking like the photos below. I was told this was "normal" which I didn't think was true, but trusted what was being told to me. (I will say that the esthetician was nice and friendly.) Then I waited 24 hours and they still look like this. It's also almost 3 weeks later and they still look like this. I called and went in for a follow up where my esthetician informed me that she has had a concussion and "shouldn't even be at work right now" - excuse me, GBY - but why are you letting someone with a concussion put chemicals near my eyes??? That explains why she let me leave the studio looking like the pictures below! You can't make this up!! I was given some castor oil and a refund 3 days later... then they said they could try to fix it in a couple of days, but I was told that they were all booked up in two days when I wanted to come in and that it was not possible, even though I originally came in a week before I was hosting a holiday party. They said they would call to try to work something out, but didn't. So I went to BeautyHolic by Han in Koreatown and she was so disappointed by the technique and how it was done. Luckily she was able to temporarily fix my brows in time for the party, but said I had to come in in two weeks to retain the semi normal shape. So now I'm spending 2x more than what I was originally planning on! About a week ago I contacted GBY asking for the manager or owner to call or email me to discuss this as it's so unprofessional and a huge disappointment, but they never got back to me. So into yelp! This is completely on GBY Silverlake (the studio. not the esthetician) for being unprofessional and ill-training their staff. Bummer

    Active lash extensions by Courtney
    Rose K.

    Got my first set of active lash extensions by Courtney and she killed it! She gave me exactly what I wanted and was fun to talk with/ overall a comfortable experience. Happy my best friend Austin recommended her and when I came on yelp, I saw Daisy's review and immediately booked. Parking was easy and free in their lot (a plus is the lot is shared with a great salad spot I never tried before). I will definitely be a return customer. Remember if you get a first timer deal like I did to tip on the full amount. It was totally worth it! Thank you Courtney!

    I am not one to give bad reviews lightly, unfortunately, I feel I needed to share this one. First, I want to say that they are a very lovely shop and Courtney was very nice, pleasant and appeared very confident in her work. I've been getting my lashes done for nearly two years and ventured away from my normal lash lady to try GBY and their activelash hoping they would just be more durable since I workout 5-6 times a week and sweat a lot and shower a lot. They claim it is more water-proof / oil-proof, so I said why not. To be clear, I'm very careful with my lashes and I know how to properly care for them and normally don't need a fill or new set for 4-5 weeks out. Unfortunately the "Activelash" didn't really live up to the title. I went in originally about a month ago for a full set and Courtney had said to come back in two weeks to see how it's going and for a fill... two weeks is pretty short but I said sure ... new place, I'll play along. After my fill 2 weeks in, she did her best from what I could understand and I was fine with it ... apparently one eye was having some growth issues .. and hey, it's my eyes, I could see that and I appreciated her honesty. I was satisfied with the work at the time and went along my way. ( total for full set and fill I spend w/ tip $218). Here I am two and a half weeks after the fill and I'm completely disappointed with what's left. I've never had lashes come out so quickly and in such a shitty way. From what I'm seeing, it looks as though she put too much glue for one thing ... she didn't take the time to properly isolate my lashes cuz they started coming off in clumps where 2-5 lashes were sticking to 2 of my own lashes, and she didn't set them close enough to the root of the lash ... At the time I was so confused why she was done in 45 mins when normally it takes 1.5 - 2 hours for a full set... now I see why. I see they have many loyal clients, and perhaps mine is an isolated incident, but I found it necessary to share my experience.

    Courtney is amazing! Let me just say, I've had my fair share of lash extensions and she is by far the best lash tech I've ever had. I immediately felt welcomed as soon as I walked through the door. Courtney was so sweet and easy to talk to, and went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and relaxed. I was so comfortable I ended up napping a little. The procedure took about 1 hour, i was a little skeptical at first because it was so quick, but wow! I couldn't believe my eyes. These are by far the prettiest lashes I've ever had... I am so in love. If you're looking for your lash haven, this is it!!! GBY never disappoints thanks Courtney

    Before and directly after, micro-blading and shading done by Mayra.  Amazing job!
    Raquel Z.

    Got my brows microbladed and shaded by the ever so lovely, Mayra! Got them done 6 weeks ago and they are still lookin fab, couldn't be happier! She walked me through the steps, asked if I had preferences, measured my brows and drew them out perfectly beforehand to make sure I'm happy with the shape and she got it down to the T! It was a 4-5 hour process well worth it. Mayra is the sweetest, and she really listens to what you want. I went with the medium brown shade, and I'm glad I did. They faded out perfectly and look so natural. Just make sure to listen to her aftercare advice for the 10 days after the procedure and you won't be disappointed. It feels amazing to wake up with full brows and it truly cut my morning makeup routine in half. I will definitely be going to back to her for my touch ups. Follow her on IG @derma.graphics to see her amazing work. GBY Beauty in Silverlake is really the cutest little spot. Super friendly staff, cute decor and clean.

    Facial by Lesley
    Josephine L.

    GBY offers a lot of different beauty services ranging from eyelash extensions (which I usually go there for), waxing, tanning and more but last weekend I went in for a facial with Lesley. She is so lovely and highly educated in skin care and she cares. She immediately knew what I needed to work on based on my skin type and the skin care that I needed/ lacked. The extractions can be a little uncomfortable if you're new but it's amazing to get everything out of your face. My favorite part was the mask and steam treatment and waking up with refreshed, breathable baby skin and having direction on what I need to work on afterwards

I came to try it once five years ago and I've been back about every month or so ever since haha, I love the way I feel with Ricki-fied brows. They give me the extra boost of confidence I need to thirve. I've had three promotions since I started seeing her, if that gives you any idea of the level of confidence we are talking.

There was great, relaxing music to listen to which drowned out any other noise- but it wasn't too loud! Since it's a facial, your eyes are closed the whole time- and so is everyone else's- so it actually felt much more private than I expected. They also provide a private changing room and a lockable locker for your belongings, so I was able to change into a robe and feel completely at ease- no need to worry about keeping your shirt on in an open space. Lani was awesome and walked me through every step of the process, explaining what she was doing and how each treatment would benefit my skin, but I never once felt bothered or pulled out of my relaxed state. It was honestly the most gentle facial I have ever had. While the masks were setting, she massaged my hands and shoulders, which was a lovely touch that really elevated the whole experience. I did get a little chilly, but that is entirely on me- I run cold! Next time I will just ask for an extra blanket! This kind of care and attention made the whole experience feel truly personalized. I left feeling great and will absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

I was literally trying to find the studio for the first time. They have a seven-minute grace period, which is unusually strict, particularly given how difficult their location is to navigate. I was not given clear instructions about where to park. Once you arrive, there is no sign identifying the studio by its name anywhere that I could see. The building signage/directory was in Korean, and I could not find English signage identifying the studio. As someone who does not read Korean and had never been there before, I had no obvious way of knowing where the business was located. I called approximately eight minutes after my appointment time while I was already parking and explained that I was there and that finding the parking had been confusing. I was told that my appointment had already been canceled because they only offer a seven-minute grace period. So, to be clear: I was a first-time customer who had booked approximately 30 minutes earlier, was physically at the location and parking, and was ONE MINUTE beyond their grace period--and they had already canceled my appointment. On top of that, they never notified me that they canceled it. No call. No text. Nothing. Had I not called them myself, I would have parked, gone inside, tried to navigate a building where their studio was not clearly identified to me, and apparently only then discovered that my appointment had been canceled. I completely understand businesses having late policies. What I don't understand is having such a rigid seven-minute cutoff while providing a first-time customer with inadequate information for navigating an unfamiliar and confusing location--and then offering absolutely no understanding or flexibility when that customer is already there and parking one minute beyond the cutoff. The way the phone conversation was handled was probably the most disappointing part. There was no attempt to understand the situation, help, accommodate me, or even acknowledge the confusion. It was simply that my appointment had already been canceled. The interaction came across as dismissive and unnecessarily rude. Policies are one thing; customer service is another. If you're going to have an unusually strict seven-minute grace period, then provide first-time customers with exceptionally clear parking and arrival instructions and notify them if you're canceling their appointment. A little communication, courtesy, and reasonable flexibility would have completely changed this experience. Instead, they lost a brand-new customer before I ever even made it through the door. I will not be returning.
