Omg so I finally have the courage to write this review since being botched by Nancy @nancyinks. I first went to Nancy to get my eyebrows ombré powder back in 2021. I went to get them touched up less than a year later. First time I got them done they were okay, the ends were a bit short and she freehand drew it on. She didn't map it out or anything. Her bedside manners were pretty shitty also. I didn't feel welcomed or at ease with her. But I still gave her the benefit of the doubt and came back the second time to get a touch up. BUT I knew it was a huge mistake the second time around bc my eyebrow hairs started to fall off!!! They all ended up falling off leaving me with 5 hairs that I can literally count on my left brow and right brow with a handful hairs only. So if you want to pay hundreds of dollars to get your eyebrow hairs to permanently fall off and never grow back, then this would be the perfect spot for you. I was so self conscious after I got my brows touched up by Nancy. I pretty much had no hairs left on my brows after. I'm not sure how or what she did!! This girl should get her license revoked. After years of hating my eyebrows, I recently went to get an eyebrow transplant done in Beverly Hills which cost me 16k. That's the only thing that finally boosted my self confidence back. read more

Okay, I don't usually write Yelp reviews, but I had to for Nancy at Ink Bar because she seriously saved my brows! I had microblading done by someone else a while back, I won't name names, but I was extremely unhappy with the results. The shape was off, and I actually had to keep my hair down on one side just to cover one brow because it was so uneven. On top of that, the red color did not suit me at all. I paid a lot, thinking that if I got it done in Beverly Hills, it would turn out great... wrong. Then I had ombré powder brows done by Nancy, and I'm SO glad I did. She was super chill, took her time, and made sure I was completely happy with the shape before starting. The whole process was way more comfortable than I expected, and the results... fucking amazing. My brows look soft and natural, just the way I wanted. I can't thank her enough. Imagine walking out the door without makeup and actually feeling confident! If you're on the fence or had a bad experience somewhere else, go see Nancy. She knows exactly what she's doing and takes care of you the whole way through. read more

I had my brows done elsewhere before coming to Nancy. She displays such knowledge and skill in getting my brows revived compared to my last brow experience. She has a true gift and talent! She free hands her pre-draw with such precision and care. She tattoos so powdery that looks so natural. You're in and out in no time feeling good you were left in expert hands. If you want someone who can get your brows looking natural and beautiful, book with her ASAP. read more

I have had my brows done by Nancy for about 6-7 years now. Her attention to detail and her eye for what fits my facial structure was spot on so I kept coming back.

She messed up... by doing such a flawless job on my mom's ombré brows that now my phone won't stop ringing. My mom turned into a walking billboard, and apparently I run customer service now. One star for the chaos. Ten stars for the brows. read more

Nancy is the best! I've gotten my first ever ombré tattoo for my eyebrows from her. She was able to walk me through the process and we were able to map out what shape, size, and location I wanted. She is very patient and is able to listen to my needs and worked with me. She's quick and efficient, my consultation and appt flew by. You can tell she's very experienced and knows what she's doing. Your eyebrows will obviously darken during the first week and start to peel, which is normal with any eyebrow tattoo! Just let your skin heal to make sure you get the results you want I have oily skin so it does fade faster compared to other people, but I always come back to Nancy when I need a touch up! And I always recommend her to my friends and colleagues and they always love how it turns out read more

I've been going to Nancy for year, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, the entire experience was professional, relaxing, and truly transformative. She took the time to understand the look I was going for, carefully mapping out the shape to suit my face and discussing every step with me before starting. Her attention to detail and steady hand gave me total confidence throughout the process. The procedure itself was surprisingly comfortable, with minimal discomfort and a calming atmosphere that made it easy to relax. The aftercare instructions were clear and thorough, which made the healing process smooth and stress-free. My healed brows look incredibly natural, full, and symmetrical--no more filling them in every morning! I've received so many compliments, and it's honestly one of the best beauty investments I've ever made. My mom and sister love my brows so much they go to Nancy too. If you're considering getting brows done, I can't recommend it enough. Just make sure you go to a skilled professional like I did--it's absolutely worth it! read more

Been getting my brows done here for years with Nancy. The location is so convenient and ample parking. I am usually in and out without with an appointment. Nancy is so skilled in her craft and is detailed. She makes sure that my brows always looks perfect and polished. I can go 6 months without having to wear brow fillers and they look natural. Nancy is professional and very sweet. I highly recommend her and will continue to get services with her. read more

I just had the most amazing experience getting my brows done from Nancy at Ink Bar Beauty. Everything from scheduling my initial appointment a few weeks ago all the way through receiving very detailed aftercare instructions were handled with the upmost professionalism. The studio was neat and felt safely sanitized. Nancy listened intently to what I was expecting from my brow service and provided details of the process and the aftercare. She truly took her time to ensure the brows were perfect and I was satisfied with the "draft", before she proceeded with the semi-permanent placement. She was pleasant and patient with my inquiries. I look forward to recommending her to my friends and family. read more

Ok so this place is legit. It's clean with inviting ambiance. Parking is available in this cute shopping area you can walk around. Nancy was super attentive, listening to exactly what i wanted. She would double check and do like this colored in markup to show you the shared vision and get full approval before moving forward. Super gentle, mindful of pain control, asks if you need breaks and triple checking throughout from different angles. She was very thorough with instructions and what is normal. I felt like she was truly striving to exceed my expectations. I have had complete strangers on the street asking me if i got my brows done and where. Hassle-free brows is the way to go. that i did it would full on recommend Ink Bar. read more

I have been getting my brows done with Nancy for the last 7 years so this review is long over due. Every experience has been comfortable with minimal pain, including this last session. I love the arch and natural looking results! read more

I don't usually write reviews, but Nancy absolutely deserves one. She's meticulous and takes her time to get it perfect. I've recommended her to so many friends and family, and they all love her just as much as I do. She's the only person I trust with my brows. Thank you, Nancy! See you at my next touch-up! read more

I am not a make up person and don't really know how to do make up, so to be able to wake up each morning with my eyebrows done is nice. I went to Ink Bar and had Nancy work on my eyebrows. She looked at the shape of my face and used her professional judgement to shape my eyebrows. She drew them in and asked me if I liked the shape. Once I agreed to the shape, she started her magic. It took a little under 2 hours and I was so happy with the results. Thank you Nancy for making me feel beautiful. read more

I found Nancy on Instagram. I was doing some research on there as well as Yelp to see which artist would be best for me. After a month or so doing that, I went with Nancy. I chose her because of all of photos she had on her Instagram showing her work and she even posted healing processes. I'm glad she did because I had no idea how unattractive the healing process would be. It's just the scabbing part which only lasts a few days and in the end it's all worth it. Trust me. I had my first appointment on November 7th with a touch up appointment on December 13th. My first appointment took about 1.5 hours or so. She brow maps first and confirms that's the shape you like. I have to admit she drew something slightly different from my norm but I really dug it and went with it. The shading process didn't hurt me at all. I sound weenie but the plucking actually hurt way more lol. It just feels like a slight scrape on your brow but I assure you it's not uncomfortable. Plus she numbs the brows as well. I have to add that Nancy is a perfectionist and I love that about her. Once she was done, she'd check my brows and touched up any little spots that needed to be filled in. She did that a couple times and made me feel assured that I was leaving with the best brows ever. I'm on day 3 now and they still look fab. read more

My brows were done by another previous artist. They were uneven, and the ink turned red. I came to Nancy for help! I needed to correct my ugly eyebrows. She definitely corrected it and changed my life. She even out my brows out and corrected the colors so that it isn't red anymore. What I like most about Nancy's work is that I don't look like I have tattooed eyebrows. They look natural but define. I highly recommend her. 10/10. read more

Nancy is the real deal and the queen of brows! I was looking to keep my brows natural and just needed a fill in as I notice with age, my brows were thinning. Also, I'm not one to draw my eyebrows or put on too much make-up, so I am so happy how Nancy was able to make me feel comfortable right from the start. From watching Nancy take on clients back to back and hearing how many people request for her is something to admire and speaks to her talent. I am glad I get t referred by sister in-laws to her, will be seeing Nancy annually how for touch-up. (: Thank you, Nancy for your mastery in brows. (: read more

Nancy changed my life. I was skeptical for a very long time about getting something permanent on my face. But everyone kept pushing me to get my eyebrows done. And so I finally decided to it, and I am forever grateful. I would look at all the places that would do permanent eyebrows or microblading and it didn't look good to me, it looked scary and hurtful. Then, I saw Nancy's work on Instagram and everything she posted looked comforting and reassuring. So I finally got a consultation and she was wonderful and very professional. She advised me on everything that made me feel confident in getting my eyebrows done. So I went in during one of her teaching sessions and as a teacher she was very precise and thorough in making sure her student was doing everything perfectly. From shaping, to feeling comfortable during the process and making sure it looks natural. Nancy made sure that my eyebrows was perfect for my face shape. She answered all my questions about the healing process. She also followed up after two weeks. I got a minor touch up after a month and it was perfect after that. The experience was amazing and didn't hurt at all for my first tattoo experience. Thank you Nancy for changing my makeup routine. I am now 24/7 brow ready. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! read more

First of all, I'm not stranger to PMU and have been getting my eyebrows done since 2007. Like with all tattoos and especially PMU, touch ups are important and necessary. I've tried so many places before and never have I been so satisfied with my brows as I have been with Nancy! I went to Nancy for the first time in December 2017 and have been coming back for my annual touch ups (I live in SF and take trips down just to get them touched up). The way the tattoo eventually fades is soft and natural (not purple or red like some other places). I also recommended Nancy to a few of my friends and my mom - all have been equally as satisfied :) Looking forward to my annual touch up next year! read more

I was a 5 at most before my brows, now I'm a fine dime. Treat yo self and see Anh for your brows!

I had an appointment for a fine line tattoo with Julia and it was so amazing and I can't wait to come back. She was kind she even helped me out and went over two of my other existing tattoos that were fading. The place is super clean and cute and I will definitely be coming back for more. read more

It was a miracle that Nancy not only fixed my 3-4 year old, faded, nasty brows, but also gave them a completely different new shape that's much better that I ever could imagine!! I had been very unhappy with my prior results, so I kept putting off getting them retouched/fixed until I saw my co worker's brows a few months ago. I had not been satisfied with any other places that I was solicited with, so you can imagine the mess I presented Nancy with at our 1st appointment. I followed her aftercare instructions to a "t" and healing was smooth and painless, unlike my past episodes with another place. I highly recommend Nancy and will refer everyone I know to her! read more

I found Nancy on Instagram and she had lots of before and after photos... I liked her work so I finally decided to book with her and make the drive. She first free hands & draws your eyebrow I originally liked it and agreed on the shape. Now looking back it seems like she makes the eyebrows short at the tail and I feel my eyebrows don't fit my face they don't even line up right from the outside corner of my nose to the outside corner of my eye like they should and to top it off only a little bit of the color retain even after the touchup up I'm giving this only 2 stars because I feel like I wasted $550 when I'm still filling in my brows with makeup everyday. read more

I loved my brows for the first 6 months but then they started fading pretty fast. I finally reached out to her 8 months and 6 days from my initial tattoo and requested a touch up. She replied that it's been 9 months and anything more than 10 months is the same annual fee. Her initial price is $550, touch up went from $275, now $295. She said she can only give me a $25 discount which really means $5 off from what she originally charged for touch ups. Then at my touch up she charged me full price. Red flag! My touch up only lasted 6 weeks. Another red flag! I don't know why I agreed to go back for the touch up. I reached out to her again and ask for a complimentary re-do touch up since it only lasted 6 weeks. She wanted to charge me another $50 for the re-do touch up. She ended up calling me with horror in her voice that I would even request for something so outrageous and that this has NEVER happened before. It lasts for 12-18 months on most people. How rude it was for me to say that her prices were steep. After speaking to multiple people in the business and reading other reviews, I'm gonna stick with 1 star for bad business. There's a ton of great ladies in the business, I would recommend others to find someone else. There's talented other women with more reasonable prices. I would gladly pay others for good business & good customer service. Unfortunately, I didn't get that here. In addition I totally agree with the other reviewers, her bedside manner is terrible. She is extremely rude and unprofessional for a business owner. Look elsewhere! Done with you Nancy! read more

Nancy did an amazing job on my new 10/10 wake up, go to work... new ombre powder brows. She explained everything to me via text, accommodated my schedule, and made the process easy. She spent the first half hour shading in my eyebrows to my liking and then she did the process in only an hour. It was pain free after the lidocaine, and my results were BEAUTIFUL! Highly recommend. If you don't believe me, peep at her instagram @nancyinks I recommend quickly. She is very busy and I had to wait in a month in advance. read more

This review is for Anh. She is absolutely AMAZING and I couldn't be happier with my new brows. I've never gotten my brows done before and was nervous at first. Anh took the time to explain the process and made sure I felt comfortable. I love that she is meticulous, takes the time to thoroughly map my brows, and made sure I loved the shape. I would highly recommend coming to her, she is absolutely talented and will make sure you look fabulous! My brows are finally symmetrical, frames my face, and look so natural. I love, love, love my new brows and have gotten lots of compliments on them. Thank you, Anh! You are THE BEST!!! read more

I had my brows done by Nancy and she did a great job! She made sure I knew how the process worked and made sure I knew I wasn't getting microbladed (microblading and powder brows are different!! Make sure to do your research). She also asked about my skin type and how often I wear makeup/fill in my brows. I showed her photos of how I usually do my brows, and she started the brow mapping. She let me look at my brows for a few minutes to make sure I was comfortable with the shape. She got it perfectly on the first try! I would equate the initial pain to the feeling of plucking out all your brow hairs at once, repeatedly. Afterward, she put the topical anesthetic and I only felt a bit of pressure. She reapplied the anesthetic after a few minutes. The whole process, including the brow mapping, took 2 hours for me. She makes sure you know all the post care information and gives you ointment to use 3x a day. She recently raised her prices but I personally think it's still a reasonable investment. She's very transparent about her pricing and the process on her Instagram (@nancyinks). Ann, who is another artist at Ink Bar Beauty, was also very nice! Even though she was with another client, she still smiled and said hello, and commented on how great my brow transformation was. Highly recommend! I'm already getting lots of compliments and they haven't even fully healed yet. Looking forward to my touch-up appointment. :) read more

I love love love nancy! So I was looking into semi permanent makeup and I stumbled on Nancy's IG Page. And I automatically liked her work. So I asked for a consultation etc. She spent an hour in my uneven brows. She made sure I was happy with the shape! I was very scared because new brows and all. But she just kept trying out new shapes etc until I was in love with my brows. Once we got to the loving my brows phase, we started the tattooing. The first part, I did feel some sort of pain but it wasn't unbearable or anything. Then she lidocaine your brows, wait a bit.. and tada you're pain free while she inks your brows. 45m later or so, your brows are finish. Hello new brows! I'm not gonna lie, but the first session I was pretty miserable. My brows looks super bold super dark and then it started to peel. This is normal. But I have really oily skin and when the first time my brows scabbed, only like 5% of the ink stayed and my brows look like night and day and there's no way I can color it in since it was still healing. I spent a week and a half hiding from the world! Anyways, when it all scabbed off, I was in love with the shape and so was every woman around me! After 6 or so weeks, I did a touch up to go darker. And after that healed, it faded again within a week. So I did a third touch up to go even darker! This time it was pretty black, but so far it hasn't fade the the point where I would shade in in with makeup. It has been almost a month and I have super oily skin and I take heated yoga. So I sweat a lot! Which is totally not good for your brows! Anyways, I would recommend Nancy to everyone. I love her and she is the brow master! read more

Love Nancy! Follow her on IG @nancyinks, but I came here per the rec of my coworker, who had her brows done by Nancy. At the time (March/April 2018), her prices were $499 for initial powder ombre brows with one touch-up one month after included. However, I know her prices are going up in October 2018 to $599 or so. I want to keep it short and sweet, but my skin is sensitive so it definitely hurt like hell. However, pain is beauty and it is definitely one of the best decisions I've made to date. It saves me SO much time and I don't even have to wear make-up on a daily basis anymore. My brows look AMAZING. Thank you, Nancy! read more

Though Nancy Instagram profile may be filled with lots of many beautiful and good looking set up brows. I was a bit disappointed in the aftermath of her work on me. She didn't map out my eyebrows and only freehand the drawing. Her free hand drawing was good so I decided to go ahead. Just like many reviewers had point out on Nancy's yelp reviews, I must agreed with the other reviewers, my tail also came out too short, along with one brows being darker than the other. As far as professionalisms goes, I wouldn't say she have the most bubbly personality. In fact, very bad bedside manner and lack of people skills, may come off as rude or a bit stuck up. When I was getting my brows retouched one of her other colleague/employee was also working on another client. Held a wonderful conversation to keep her client at ease and to build rapport. Nancy on the other hand wasn't interest in talking which I respect. But I had to ask a simple question relating to brows tattooed after careful. Her comment was if you keep talking how can I get anything done. Second remark was when my phone started ringing, she made fun of the ring tone to her colleague and mock that only old people use that type of ring tone. If she is the business owner, I do wish that she have a bit better customer relations skills. read more

I come here to see Frances for my facials. I've been getting the microdermabrasion facials and have dry to combination skin with mild pimples once in a while. She is fabulous! Very friendly and gives honest advice about your skin and needs. She also has high grade product recommendations for you and cheaper alternatives if needed. She also has her own line if you're wanting to try her stuff. I appreciate her time and honesty. I never feel rushed and my skin is always feeling sooo good after the facials. Parking is ample and it is a very clean place. I want to try some of the other facials and would love to come in more frequent but I just simply have not had time yet. Highly recommend giving her a try. read more

Nancy did an amazing job on my brows! I don't ever have to draw on or fill them in ever. I only wish I had found her sooner. Also, she was so open and helpful when working with my schedule since I didn't live near by. She made the whole process very easy and I am more than happy with the outcome. She was very professional and it was a very clean and friendly environment. I highly recommend her! read more

My girlfriend booked me for a men's facial with Frances for my birthday and I am very pleased with my appointment with her! I've been to four different dermatologists over the last 10 years for acne and have had limited success, even with various oral and topical antibiotics and with Accutane. I can honestly say that after my appointment with Frances, my skin looked the best it has since before puberty! Leaving our session, she recommended a few products that I could be working into my skincare routine that were missing already. She was very knowledgeable with the different prescriptions I was using under the instruction of my dermatologist and gave me great feedback about them! She even picked up on a few daily habits that were contributing to my breakouts, which I have changed and see a significant difference with already. Frances did an amazing job and I am looking to continue to see her in the future! I strongly recommend seeing her if you are even interested in her services. She is a pleasure to talk to and I truly enjoyed my appointment from the moment I met her to the moment I walked out the door. Thanks again, Frances! read more

Update Review: It's been 5 months since my second session of my first tattoo'd eyebrows with Nancy and I wanted to update anyone out there who is second guessing themselves on making such a big decision. Here are some things I will note. Nancy explained she would tattoo my brow tails shorter to match where my eye ends. I learned later on that this presented an issue since I wing my eyeliner past my eyebrows. The front of my brows, towards the nose, fades a bit unevenly. With the few minor things that have occurred, I still give Nancy five stars. Forget what you see on Instagram. Nancy's work is to do what is most natural to your face. I don't mind the tails short because when I don't wear eyeliner, a long tail looks awkward. Also, sometimes I wing my eyeliner too much but with the brows, I can keep myself from making bad makeup mistakes. If I do a full face makeup and decided to put a bit of brow pomade, my eyebrows are already sketched out for me. Takes me 2 minutes to fill and make the tails longer if I wanted. If I could change one thing, I would ask a bit darker but I'm not going to discredit Nancy on that. It's not that she isn't capable, it's that I never made it known to her to fix the issue. As for the uneven portion of my brows, this is something I will bring up during the yearly touch up. It's not fair to discredit an artist when it's my first time getting tattoo'd in the most sensitive and oily portion of my body! There are multiple factors that contribute to my eyebrows fading faster than some. I trust Nancy's work and her pricing to me, is very reasonable. read more

It's been 6 months since I did my brows & touch up (with Anh) and I still love them! I use to go get my brows waxed every two weeks. That was time consuming and expensive. Getting them done was an investment but it's well worth it! I will probably ask for them to be a tad bit darker at my 1 year touch up.These girls know what they're doing and they have their client's best interest in mind! read more
