Life changing! Best decision and no regrets. If you are searching for a brow artist, you can stop right here and book now with Erita :) I'm in my late 30's and a victim of thin over-plucked 1990s eyebrows lol. I don't have enough hair for brow lamination and knew the best option for me would be PMU. I started searching on instagram for Bay Area brow artists and landed on Erita's inkscode studio page. Just by first impression, the work speaks for itself. You can tell that Erita is very passionate about her business and is a skilled pro artist. Seeing the before and after photos + videos definitely had me interested in getting nano brows done asap. Luckily for me, I had the amazing opportunity to be a model (on my birthday!) for Erita's 1 on 1 class with a student. Since it was a training session, the process did take about 6 hours to complete (normally takes 2-3 hours). As a model, you do have to be patient and understanding that Erita has to slow down to educate the student and allow them to get hands-on practice. If you ever have the chance to be a model and are concerned about trusting the student, I will say that Erita works on about 95% of your brows. She did go over the students work and made necessary corrections if needed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]My overall experience was wonderful! If I could give 10 stars I would.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Erita was easy to communicate with via text and Instagram DM.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Her personality is very friendly and relatable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She continues to further her own education and is a great teacher to others who want to start their PMU career. Erita is such a boss babe in her grinding era! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm happy to have met her and her student. Both ladies worked great together and I left the salon suite very grateful for my new brows.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Inkscode Studio - Training Day - Eyebrow Services Near Me - San Jose, California

I searched high and dry Yelp for someone to correct my mom's brows because they were faded and honestly not good work. Erita is friendly and super accommodating since I had to reach out to her first before booking a corrective service (especially since my mom isn't really tech savvy). My mom said Erita was nice too haha. Now I'm considering getting my brows redone Awesome work and fair prices, and super easy to book! Highly recommend ! Thank you Erita! read more

I know this review is a bit late, but I wanted to share my experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I took Erita's eyebrow training last year because I was still having some trouble with my shading even after six years of doing brows and attending over five or six trainings, I just couldn't get it right.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I stumbled upon her work, I decided to reach out, and I'm so glad I did![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Erita is not only super talented, but she also shares all her amazing tips and tricks without holding anything back. Since her training, I've seen such great improvements in my work, and I'm really happy with the results! Thank you, Erita! read more

This is for anyone debating getting your brows done or considering taking Eritas training courses. Have no doubt... you are in the best hands!! First, I am not a PM artist; I am just a busy mama who had barely any brows before yesterday and didn't look awake without an eyebrow pencil. Today literally was a NEW day! I was on the fence for a long time about getting my eyebrows done. I wanted them to look natural. I didn't want to look like I had a full face of makeup on. I'll admit, I'm super particular. It serves me mostly; however, when it came to trusting TX on my face, I was hesitant, but when I saw Eritas posts on NANO STROKE. I was intrigued! If you think her photos are good, wait til you see your completed brows in person. I didn't want to change what I looked like. I never expected to be met with such graciousness and openness about my brow goal. I thought it was kind of you signing up for style, and that's what you get. My Experience: hands-down, professional, personalized, and thorough. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I did not feel nervous at all during my appointment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seeing how Erita and Nikki communicated with one another and their approach made me feel confident and relaxed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Perfect vibes! Patient and honest. It was genuinely the best experience, and the final result exceeded my expectations. Nikki was fantastic; as an advanced artist who continues to strive toward excellence did just that. Nikki was impeccable with her work. I cannot thank her enough. My brows are seriously perfection. I did have the opportunity to observe during the training, Erita, and Nikki, collaborated on my treatment and it was so interesting to observe. Erita spoke with such clarity and respect for Nikki, I think the thing that I found most interestingthat speaks to Eritas style of teaching was she didn't say do this or don't do that-she asked what do you think? What one of these two strokes do you like better. Leaving Nikki, with the freedom to use her own intuition as an artist. I had no idea how much detail went into eyebrows outside of the kind of style. Different tints and needles ways to hold the gun just very informative and interesting to listen to. In summary- Erita is a GEM and I am beyond impressed and grateful for her knowledge, experience and dedication to her craft! Nikki is magic! I feel so blessed to have been worked on by two of the best!!! I see why people travel from far distances for treatment. Love love love love love my brows. read more

I took Erita's 3 Day 1-1 Nano Course, and was able to learn so much from her! Erita's a very patient instructor and really gives you all her attention during class. She's focused on teaching the correct techniques, developing good habits, and laying down a good foundation for her students. With the 1-1 class, she's also able to tailor the class to the student's specific needs and to move at a pace suitable for them. For those looking to get into permanent makeup, I'd highly recommend taking her class! I did also got my brows and lip blushing done with her, and those all healed beautifully as well! read more

I will be back read more

I have always wanted to fix the symmetry of my brows because as I age, I noticed they have become uneven in time and probably due to the plucking I have done in the past. I am so happy I bumped into Erita on IG. She is a God-send!!! First off, communication was super easy. After I booked (and read her policies) she connected with me and even reminded me as my appointment day was heading closer. When I got to her studio, I must say I was impressed because it was sparkly clean. Erita was very welcoming and warm. She never rushed me as I was still trying to find out what's best for my virgin brows. She was very patient with me in explaining the different procedures. We have agreed on an Ombré brow, which was literally perfect! I love my new brows and am ecstatic about it. My brows turned out to be "sisters" instead of "distant relatives". She is really skilled at what she does and I can see that it's her passion! She took her time in perfecting the best template, she also was very concerned if I was in pain or uncomfortable during the inking process, to which I was not at all. I highly recommend Erita from Inkscode Beauty Bar. You and your brows will be in good hands. I felt that I came home more beautiful and confident than when I came in. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Erita is such an amazing person.

I love how she took her time to outline and map out what needed to be fixed, and explained why. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She talked me through the process and always made sure I was completely comfortable during the whole thing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Such an amazing teacher! Definitely recommend her to anyone who's looking for a flawless brow service, or anyone to level up on their services in the beauty industry! read more

Erita- the very best in her field. Be careful who you choose. I had gone to Browtherapy4u by Amanda and was very unhappy with her work and the results. Then I met Erita. Besides being a true professional, she is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Just wanted to thank you for the great job you did on my eyebrows and lips. Not only do they look incredible, they make me feel fabulous. I also want to thank you for being such a wonderful and caring person. Thank you for being a bright spot and for all the conversations and laughs. Thanks for all your artistic talent done on my eyebrows and lips! I feel prettier than I did before. read more

Erita was very thorough in explaining what to expect. She reassured me that the procedure wont be painful and played a calming music to soothe my anxiety. I practically fell adleep during and was surprised that there was very little discomfort!.Her hands were very light and asked me every now and then if the strokes were manageable.Her studio is clean and well lighted. I am glad I was able to avail of her promo price. read more

I took a couple of weeks and followed Erita and her work on Facebook and was pretty impressed with the outcome of her work. Made a back to back appointment for brows and lips. Her office was very neat and clean and she took her time to explain every little detail since I was pretty nervous about the whole process. After getting my brows and lips done I was so happy with the outcome and loved how patient she was to correct anything I asked for and yes I'm pretty precise with the shape I wanted but she took care of it without any hesitation. Most importantly she listened and I loved that about her. read more

I got my Ombré brows done a month ago and all I can say is WOW! Erita is so professional I had such an amazing experience during both my original appointment and my touch up appointment. The office is decorated cute and kept tidy I felt very comfortable getting my eyebrows done here. I loved the attention to detail she gave when brow mapping me and making changes as needed. She has a great eye and makes sure her work is perfect! Will 100% be recommending this place to others and will be a client for years to come! read more

Erita is sooooo professional and knowledgeable! My main concern before making that commitment was how painful it can be and let me tell you that it wasn't painful at all! I was basically overthinking for nothing LOL. I am totally in love with my ombre eyebrows and I'm so glad that I went to her salon because she did such a phenomenal job! I will definitely be recommending her to friends and family! Thank you again, Erita! read more

Love Erita & her work! I had my eyebrows tattooed a few years ago, but they faded to red. I was embarrassed of them and still drew my brows on every day. Not only did she fix my brows, but she was able to reshape them to a more natural, flattering shape by camouflaging my old tattoo brows. I wanted darker brows but she assured me that natural is the way to go, and I'm glad I listened! I get SO many compliments on my brows, and people don't even think they're tattooed! Definitely recommend her if you're looking for a professional, talented, and genuinely sweet brow artist! read more

I had my first brow correction appointment with Erita back in November 2022 to cover up previous work done back in SEA in 2018. My last eyebrow healed, but the skin surrounding the micro-bladed eyebrow remained red. Before I reached out to Erita, I was initially worried that my eyebrows would not have much room for change, but she assured me that she could easily fix the shape as I desired. I am so happy I trusted her and proceeded with the process. She was beyond understanding and patient and very communicative throughout both sessions, the initial brow correction, and the touch-up. Not only did Erita fixed the eyebrow shape as I wanted, but she also color-corrected the reddish skin for me. I love my new eyebrows, and the results exceeded my expectations! Although my eyebrows did not need the touch-up session, I chose to do it to darken the pigment to be able to withstand the test of time. During the touch-up session, my body had a nerve reaction to the vibration, and I kept twitching before the numbing cream kicked in. It was not painful at all; I just had tiny little tingly goosebumps that I felt I needed to scratch. Erita handled my discomfort like a pro and allowed me to adjust and walk around as I needed, and for that, my anxiety is beyond grateful. After the numbing cream kicked in, I fell asleep throughout the session. It was that gentle! She even went slightly overtime for me because she wanted to make sure my eyebrows were perfect instead of rushing to get to the next customer. All her patience and efforts are well worth it because I love my eyebrows and the compliments I receive for them! read more
