    A friend of mine recommended Melody and I'm so happy I got my brows done by her! Melody's technique is impeccable. I did blade and shade ad I could feel that when she applying the bald strokes, the force is even and there's no hesitation. My recovering process went extremely well and I only had minimum scabbing. The color she chose matches my hair and skin tone. I'm so happy never have to draw my brow again!

    Before, healed brows after initial session, healed brows after 1st touch up.

    Melody is a true artist! She was super sweet and explained everything to me, emphasizing the importance of after care. I have to say that these eyebrows are the best investment I've made this year. Every time I see them in the mirror I'm so happy. I've never been good at shaping/drawing my eyebrows - now I can just wake up and go about my day because they're ready! They're even better after the first touch up. Can't thank Melody enough!

    I have been scoping out a microblading artist for a while in SF, and there are surprisingly not a lot out there, and I wasn't super impressed but then I found Melody on Instagram and I was stoked to see her style was what I was looking for. Her strokes look super natural and the color is perfect. I originally wanted microblading but after seeing her blade and shade, my mind was changed. The experience was overall pleasant, but the sound of the razor is a little weird but manageable. She did a great job with the mapping and I have gotten a lot of compliments on my brow shape. The picture first picture is immediately after my session like day 2, and the second is then healed after the first session, my tails didn't heal that great, but overall I'm happy! I am confident they'll be perfect after the second go.

    Before/after

    Melody is very skilled and friendly! She is attentive and explains everything wonderfully. Her warmth makes you feel comfortable right away. I also appreciated her beautifully clean studio! Huge plus! For the brows, I am pleased with my results. I opted for the blade and shade. They do heal softer and more natural, which I like. The touch up appointment helped perfect them. Some parts of my brows did not retain pigment. No biggie though. That's the point of the touch up! Here's a pic of my before and after! Same day I would absolutely recommend her!

    Really enjoyed my sessions with Melody! She was very knowledgeable, talked me through my concerns and worked me with to achieve the natural look I wanted. Overall, I felt Melody really cared about my outcome and did her best to deliver me fabulous brows! Chatting with her felt more like talking with a friend than it did a service so I felt super comfortable the entire time. She also used to be a makeup artist so I think it's a big plus that if I wanted something that didn't look good, she would definitely advise me against it instead of just doing it anyway for the money! Melody was also very detailed about the aftercare process and was responsive over text whenever I had any questions. For me, the process did hurt a little more than I anticipated but if that's something you're scared of, you should just ask her to leave the numbing cream on for a bit longer. The touch up session was a lot less painful since I went in knowing what to expect. The studio she works out of on Grant Ave was also super clean and gorgeous which help to mitigate any hygiene concerns I had about the process. For anyone considering microblading, I would highly recommend you follow her on Instagram to get a better sense of her work portfolio! She also occasionally has promotions happening so you may be able to get an initial session for slightly less.

    Didn't have to fill my eyebrows in at all after healing!

    Short review: Highly, highly recommend getting your brow procedure from Melody. I received natural looking brows and haven't had to fill since. I've also received many compliments on how good and natural they look (something I prioritized). I healed well, and Melody did a great job educating me on proper maintenance which wasn't too intense. For the price and what is included-- extremely. good. deal. She was also super sweet and knowledgeable. Her passion is definitely obvious for the work she does. Don't hesitate before her prices go up! You've found your girl! Detailed review: Melody was very professional, patient, flexible, and knowledgeable. She walked me through everything I needed to know about the procedure, care for after, and just expectations. Expectations are big when you're getting these types of procedures. Make sure you ask all the questions you have before doing it, communicate what you want, and your expectation for your brows to her, which Melody answered and did flawlessly. She also seemed just generally concerned that I knew what I was getting myself into, and knew how to take care of my brows during the healing process. Going above and beyond which was super sweet. I don't typically write reviews often, but had to for her. She was wonderful and had a very calming presence. Very much needed during a procedure that involves some pain (but totally worth it). It's been about a couple months now after my microblading procedure and I didn't even need a touch up. (Disclaimer - most people heal differently, and I tend to heal well and fast for tattoos and piercings). I am extremely happy with my brows, and get sooooo many compliments on them! More importantly, I haven't needed to fill my brows since. Melody did an extremely good job incorporating my concerns for my brows and how natural I wanted them to look, as I don't wear much make up in general. As for the procedure, and apart from Melody-- it did hurt, but nothing I didn't expect. my brows were very dark after but lightened as healed. I don't recommend getting this done before a special event. Do it at least 2-3 weeks before!

    LONG OVERDUE. I had microblading done back in 2016 and absolutely hated it. Back then, there weren't many options and I didn't do my due diligence when research. This second time around, I spent too much time researching but it was all worth it at the end because I found Melody. I went to Bombshell Beauty in April 2019. After speaking with her for only a few minutes, I knew I was in good hands. Melody is very welcoming, friendly, and passionate about beauty. Normally, I fill in my brows and I prefer to have them look done all the time, so I opted for microshading. I let her know what I typically like, but let her know that I'm open to whatever variation of it would fit my face best. She didn't disappoint - she took her time designing the brows and was meticulous about measurements. Once finished the outline in brow pencil, she showed me the shape to see if I liked it before she actually began the process. She walked me through every step of the process and explained what she was doing. I learned a lot about my skin, how my brows may heal, and how to care for them. She was also really fun to chat with so the time went by quickly. Once finished, she showed me my new brows and I was floored! They turned out better than I could've imagined and I am SO HAPPY with them. I still can't believe how great my brows turned out. Also a major plus that I don't have to have the fear of wiping/sweating off my brows anymore. Haha. 2-months later and my brows still look fantastic. I didn't end up going back for a touch up because I am happy with them as is. Highly, highly recommend Melody! I only regret not going to her sooner. Love my brows! Thank you!

    I got my eyebrows done by Mel and got the Blade&Shade . She did an amazing job! Mel is very knowledgeable when it comes to brows and does an amazing job at Microblading and making the strokes on the brows look like real brow hairs. I would highly recommend her for your service. She is very professional, knowledgeable, nice, and her work space is clean and sanitized. I have been getting numerous compliments on my eyebrows and I love it! The procedure was painless and so worth it! I would definitely book your session with Mel....you won't regret it.

    I absolutely positively am in love with Melody's skills!!! Like heart eyed emojis x5! She's very thorough on the whole process for microblading/microshading. I don't have any tattoos so getting semi permanent make up was going to be tough. Everyone's pain tolerance is different and for me I'm pretty sensitive to pain but she helped me get through it with the most minimal tears and flinches. Being a personal trainer I was scared that I was going to screw up the healing process since I sweat a lot but I had nothing but fantastic results and caring for my brows were super simple! If I can do it anyone can do it! Melody if you read this you're so freakin talented!! Love ya girl! PS- no I didn't know Mel prior to being microbladed.

    9 months healed with blonde hair

    the best investment ever!! melody will take as long as it needs to make sure you're leaving with confidence. brows are all unique to all of us and are a big commitment, there were times where melody had to step in and give her professional opinion,explaining her thought process and technique, and she was never wrong. she is the definition of an ARTIST and even did my brows to suit my complexion as my blonde hair grew out. i had no plans of going back to my natural color but she KNEW!! i will forever recommend melody to anyone who asks about my brows :)

I booked a lash lift, European facial, and eyebrow wax with Judy for $208 total. Lash lift (45 minutes): she recommended that I come back after 5 weeks and that I would be able to get them wet immediately! European facial (90 minutes): very relaxing, involved steaming and extractions, and my skin literally looked so good for my trip and didn't break out. I typically get a spot or two from traveling (especially since I went to three different places), but this didn't happen at all. My regular facialist (who I unfortunately couldn't squeeze an appointment in with in time) even said that he could tell I went to someone in between our sessions... oops! Eyebrow wax (15 minutes): super quick and shaped my eyebrows very well. I already have thick eyebrows and my stragglers are quite evident! Judy cleaned them up in under 15 minutes. The ambiance inside is very relaxing and K2 Beauty is definitely good at each of the treatments they offer! I'm happy with the results of each of the ones I booked. I'm happy with the results of this place- it can be a bit difficult to find since it's inside a larger complex, so give yourself a bit of time beforehand (maybe 5-10 minutes or so) to arrive early to find the spa itself.

She will tell you what time she has open you just ask her what times you have open between XYZ or what day you plan to come in and she will let you know what time she has open for you to swing by! Very fast but extremely detail oriented so no need to worry about quality. I've only used her waxing services and I always come out clean and no problems directly after or later in the night (I know since I've been to other waxers until I found Lisa. I've never gone to another one since) Good parking around the block so parking isn't an issue, just make sure to look at street cleaning signs lol. The place is calm and clean and always welcoming. She's got music in the waiting area and always relaxing or throwback music which I appreciate! There's a bathroom in the waiting area you can use. Definitely ask her questions if you have any. She's got great tips on skin upkeep between waxes and more! I've never had one bad experience from her so that is awesome! I know she does hard and soft wax so that's a plus! Since certain areas you need certain wax textures. I religiously go to her monthly unless I'm out of town. Not much traffic so you don't need to worry about speeding cars. Wide streets so you can look both ways for cars and there are stop signs. Daly City so you might need a jacket but all good!

I told her I wanted to keep my V shape + long layers and just wanted to thin out my hair. She said ok and started straightening my hair. My hair is already very straight to begin with and I've never been to a salon where they start off straightening your hair, but this should've been enough for me to trust my gut and get up and leave! I decided to "trust the process" and she basically began dry cutting my hair and kept straightening in between cuts. In the end, she styled it with the straighter and said "I gave you more layers ok?" I'm so disappointed by Ten because not only did she not listen to what I asked for, but she butchered my hair. Of course with all the straightening, my hair would look decent because it's "styled," but when it's freshly washed and blow dried without styling, it's a choppy 3 layer haircut! I'm not sure who hired her, but she isn't fit to be a hairstylist. Now I have to either find someone who can fix my hair or just let it grow out.
