Melissa master tech does the most amazing lashes I've ever had. Beautiful work. Clean.read more

There were a few things that lead to my review…read more The first is, when I got to my appointment, my technician was still working on someone (which is nbd). After a few minutes of waiting, the previous client left, and she had me immediately lie down on the same table. They didn't wipe down the table or use sanitation/disposable cloths, which kind of bothered me. I requested for a wispy lash look. Typically at my previous appointments at various lash extension salons, the technician would ask me detailed questions about my preferences, and ask me what length, curliness, and volume I like. I wasn't asked any questions, only told to show me a picture of lashes I wanted. I felt like the extension process was fine, was poked a few times. Finally I was disappointed at how fast my lashes fell off (~5 days), which was a bummer because I got them done to look nice for a bachelorette party coming up in a week. I felt like the appointment was fast (45-55minutes).

Chloe is THE BEST! Quick, efficient, nice and CONSISTENT! Highly recommend!

I asked…read morefor a natural set with more length, less volume and got an amazing 3D wispy set that looks like a good mascara day. It was $100 with the first time discount and took less than 2 hours. I'm usually uncomfortable on those lash tables, but the calming music and waterfall sounds literally put me to sleep! I also appreciate the private room with a table to put your stuff on. Sometimes the way they put on the lash tape hurts, but the artist was very professional and definitely knew what she was doing. I've had allergic reactions in the past and ended up with red eyes for the first couple days, but I'm about 2 hours post lashes and my eyes feel great! On a super random note, I tend to break out easily, so I appreciated the tissue on my forehead so her hand wouldn't touch my sensitive skin. I don't know why this place doesn't have more good reviews! I definitely recommend :)

White Feather Lashes

White Feather Lashes is the only lash studio I trust and recommend…read more Hailey has been doing my lashes for years -- I genuinely refer to her as a magician. She consistently gives me beautiful, balanced fills while still prioritizing the health of my natural lashes. I'm not the easiest client to work on because of my uneven eyelids, but she never disappoints. I've had bad experiences at other studios with poor retention, excessive glue, and damage to my natural lashes, so I really appreciate how honest, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented this team is. During Hailey's maternity leave, Diamond and Nhi both took great care of me. The entire team genuinely cares about quality work and the overall health of your lashes. I'll never go anywhere else.

It just feels like you are getting pampered right when you walk into a well managed facility, with beautiful decor and professional service. I made the appointment online through their website. They followed up via text message up until appointment day. The whole procedure was done so effortlessly, I dozed off lol. The best part is waking up to a set of beautiful lashes. I got the mega fill. Since my lashes were foreign, we worked with what we could. They still came out beautiful! I think once the old lashes fall out, they will look even better. My lash artist advised me to get a new set if they don't fall out by next session. And I will definitely be back next time. The man up front also explained after care and upcoming appointments with me. He not only gave me lash brushes, but a protector in case I need to take a shower before 24 hours. It's always the little details I appreciate. Most importantly, the lashes look like high quality. Hopefully the retention will be good, but so far, I am loving it here!

For my most recent visit, I showed them a Pinterest inspiration for my nails, and one of the staff members went completely out of her way to find the exact color and glitter shade to recreate the look I wanted. She was also helping other walk-ins and appointments at the same time, which made it even more impressive that she still took the time to help me find the perfect shades. I absolutely loved how my nails turned out, and I really appreciate the care and effort they put into making sure their customers are happy. After 7 years of coming here, I can confidently say I highly recommend this salon!

On top of that, their pricing is much more reasonable compared to other salons in OC. I am so glad I found this place and will definitely be coming back.

l've visited this location about twice for services because it's conveniently close to my home…read more Unfortunately, my experiences have been inconsistent. On multiple occasions, before | was even able to put my name down or explain what service I was coming in for, I was told by Sue, the technician, that she had another appointment (once an eyelash appointment and another time a facial). Since there appears to be only one technician on site, 1 was left confused, as there was no follow-up regarding what service I was requesting, how long the wait time might be, or whether there was an option to return at a different time. The interaction felt rushed and unwelcoming, which came across as unprofessional. Even for a brief service like eyebrow threading, clear communication and basic customer courtesy are important. I value transparency and professionalism when choosing a business, and unfortunately that was lacking during my visits. I hope this feedback helps improve the overall customer experience. not very welcoming at all !After being turned away, I returned to my car to leave. While doing so, I noticed that another client who arrived after me was taken in for service. This was confusing and disappointing, as it contradicted the reason I had just been given.

In the time she was catching up with her friend on the phone she cound have done my brows and I would have been out of there. She is extremely unprofessional and I dont recommend to anyone.

I simply asked for confirmation that there wouldn't be any more changes. Instead of taking responsibility for the inconvenience, I was told the delays were out of her control, and the next response was to contact Groupon for a refund when I didn't want to visit. The interaction left me feeling like my time was not valued, especially considering the business has a strict cancellation policy for clients. Same respect is not given.

I went to Sumi Lashes and chose the wispy volume style because I wanted soft, fluttery, "I woke up…read morelike this" vibes... and now I accidentally look like I have my life together. The technician was so gentle I almost fell asleep, which is saying a lot because I don't even trust people near my eyeballs like that. The salon was clean, quiet, and relaxing--basically the opposite of my daily chaos. My lashes came out super lightweight but still full, like natural... if my natural self were just better. They've been holding up really well too, surviving naps, showers, and me aggressively rubbing my eyes at 2am (don't recommend, but still). Only downside? Now I have to book ahead because apparently everyone else also wants to look effortlessly put together.

I'm hard on my nails, soI'm used to coming in strictly every two weeks for a pedicure before it looks wonky. But she does such an incredible job that I can go anywhere from 3-5 weeks before a single chip. I don't know what kind of magic she is doing, but in my ten plus years of getting pedicures, I haven't experienced this kind of consistency and quality ever before. Everyone that works there is so kind, the employees are friendly and helpful. Pricing is competitive for the area and the VIP treatments are absolutely worth it every now and again, although I typically stick with the basic gel pedi. Chairs are comfortable, beverages are complimentary and offered on seating, and the herbs they use for teas and soaks smell incredible. Finding a good nail salon is always a stressful task. Happy to find a place I can count on.

I had such a great experience at Hairy Little Things! I got a lash lift and brow lamination, and I'm honestly so happy with how everything turned out. My esthetician, Natalie, did an amazing job--she was professional, detail-oriented, and made me feel really comfortable the whole time. My lashes look lifted and natural, and my brows are perfectly shaped and fluffy without looking overdone. You can tell she really knows what she's doing and takes her time to make sure everything looks perfect. I would definitely recommend Hairy Little Things, especially if you can book with Natalie.

Disappointing experience -- no consultation and stencil-only brows…read more I booked a brow wax with Sarah and was very disappointed. There was no consultation at all. She immediately started marking my face, and when I stopped her to ask what we were doing with my brows, she told me they don't do consultations and instead use a stencil and wax everything outside of it. I trusted the process, but as she started waxing, she mentioned she had just started doing brows and that this is how she was taught. My brows were very full before and only needed a cleanup. When she finished, they were much thinner and uneven, and I was shocked. She said, "Next time we can use a thicker stencil," but I was never asked what I wanted beforehand or shown what my brows would look like before waxing. A simple consultation would have prevented this. Brows are not one-size-fits-all, and waxing without understanding the client's goals is careless. If you care about your brows, I recommend going to an artist who takes the time to ask what you want instead of relying on stencils.

Finally, I call and ask "can you at least come out or something" to where she responds "ugh no one has had such difficulty finding the suite" like???? Is it so hard for you to come out, I have previous people offer to come out just as a courtesy. Also, she said she was so "booked" and I couldn't changed my appt slot to 12 so... that's also funny.
