Sonia is an absolutey amazing at what she does . I have never felt more confident in my brows than…read moreI do now. The shape, color, and symmetry are absolutely perfect. I have used numerous brow artists in the past, but none compare to the level of skill and precision that Sonia possesses. Not only is Sonia incredibly talented, but she is also professional and fun to be around. Her studio is so cute and clean. I have never had to worry about last-minute cancellations or less then perfect results. She takes immense pride in her work and goes above and beyond to exceed expectations. She's amazing at lash tints, brow laminating, lip blushing and micro blading too. I cannot recommend Sonia enough. If you are in Santa Cruz county and looking for a brow artist who will transform your brows into a work of art, look no further. Trust me, once you experience bare brows you will never want to go to anyone else. Thank you, Sonia, for giving me the best natural lashes & brows !

Highly recommend Sonia for your lash tint and lift. I was in town for my wedding and booked an…read moreappointment with her. On the day of the appointment, there was a fallen tree and power line, and PG&E closed the street, blocking anyone from entering on foot or by car. Sonia knew that my appointment was for my wedding, and she diligently checked in all day to see when she could access her salon. She was finally able to get to the salon that evening, and generously offered to bring her equipment to the home I was staying in to do my lashes right away. I was very impressed by her dedication. As far as the quality of the work: I have straight, blonde lashes and Sonia lifted and tinted them perfectly. They looked great for the wedding and look just as great 10 days later. I can't wait to have Sonia do my lashes again next time I'm in Aptos.

SHE admits she needed…read moreto do a more thorough consult, then asks me when I can come in to fix it as we talked about after I paid her (which I responded). She then tells me she doesn't have her appointment book with her on the weekend (which ironically the original appointment was made on a weekend), then she stops responding. ONLY after the salon owner saw the Google review did she send me a text- on September 5. "I was told by the salon owner....." She says that the reason for not getting back to me were family issues. So which is it? Family issues or the client is the problem? Like I said, IT IS ONLY HAIR! No big deal. But treat people right and be honest!
