Besides microblading, their services also include lipliner and lip tattoos! I submitted an inquiry for a brow correction and received a response within a day. I sent over photos of my current brows (some microblading artists are selective when it comes to corrections/fixing other artists' work) and thankfully, Emily Joy agreed to fix them for me! I put down a 50% deposit and booked an appointment (bookings are only guaranteed with a deposit!). The remaining balance is also charged on the day of the appointment. Medical history is requested along and pre and post-care instructions are provided during booking. They are also sent during the appointment confirmation (about 2-3 days before your appointment) and are also available on their website. Emily Joy had wonderful bedside manner and had a warm, genuine personality and I felt comfortable with her right away! The process of measuring and drawing out my brows took longer in addition to waiting for the topical anesthetic took longer than the actual microblading itself. It's pretty painless for the most part, but once the anesthesia starts to wear off, it feels more like a scratch, if anything at all. She provided a cute post-care tote with Aquaphor, a card with directions on how to take care of your brows, as well as swabs to apply the Aquaphor. I was able to book my touch-up right after we finished our initial session. The studio itself is clean and has the cutest, posh decor. It's shared in an office building with several other businesses and has ample parking. I've constantly received compliments on my brows and every morning, I look at myself in the mirror and think to myself, "I WOKE UP LIKE DIS!" I'm extremely happy with my brows (now) and I'm SO glad that I came to Dollistic!

They all are a team and your actual artist literally takes all the time they need to to ensure the eyebrows are perfectly shaped before they do anything permanent. I cannot wait to go for my next touch up which is included in your initial fee btw.

There was another woman who came a bit later who worked on my hair. They both got done within two hours as promised and I loved how everything turned out. I was in love with my hair & make-up and received numerous compliments that day and after the photoshoot. Thank you Desiree for glamming me up and making me look (and feel) so beautiful!

Wow..! This has to be the most incompetent makeup artist in the entire city of San Antonio! I found…read morecristina on facebook/instagram and we agreed to have a makeup trial for my wedding later this month. She told me she needed 4 other girls in my wedding party to book her services in order to hire her as a traveling mua. I provided her with all of the information pertinent to the even (location/date/etc) and thought everything was perfect. I informed her REPEATEDLY that I would be traveling to San Antonio JUST for the trial this past Friday. When I arrived to my appt she asks where the wedding would be and the date. (Ughhhh... Hadn't we discussed this a billion times? ) She stated "i think i have i just booked it, but i don't have my ipad." I asked her to double check her schedule and indeed she had double booked! What a complete moron!!!!! I showed her our messages specifying the date and location of my event and she literally just said "my bad." I left immediately ! This mua is young, inexperienced, unprofessional, and unreliable. She had me drive 4 hours from Houston to SA without realizing she was double booked. She books trials at her place which is ratty. Her bathroom had dead bugs and undergarments scattered across the floor. Any professional would tidy up prior to the arrival of their clients! This mua also asks you book groups of 4-5 girls, yet she is biting more than she can chew. If you are a bride who wants to hire Texan Belle Co's services for an out of town wedding or for any event, KEEP AWAY! This moron will probably leave you hanging the day of your wedding. So glad I realized how unreliable and unintelligent she was PRIOR to my event!!

I asked if August 29th was available and she stated she had nothing booked for that date yet and that she goes by a first come, first serve and needed a deposit in order to reserve the date. I decided to do a trial with her first. She confirmed the night before to make sure everything was still set in stone. I don't agree with the previous poster saying that her place is "ratty". I complimented her at how nice her place was, very clean and well kept. Crystine did my make up and I was shocked at how well her performance was! She did exactly what I wanted her to do in an extremely timely matter. She was very professional and even told me that if I didn't like it, to let her know so that she could re-do. That day I waited to see if my make up would run and to see how long it lasted. I decided to go ahead and book her for my bridal party and put the deposit down. She was also able to accept PayPal for my own piece of mind. I would and do recommend Texan Belle Co to friends and family.

Treusdell Salon and Spa is actually several independently owned and operated salons and spas…read moreoperating in the same building with a common reception area. Due to construction and the awful traffic congestion along the route to my regular stylist, I decided to take advantage of a Groupon special and get my hair done closer to home during the holidays. Betty Bahktiar is an excellent colorist and I'm happy with the cut and color. She's warm and friendly, too. I really like her, but I feel that people deserve an honest review, so I'm going to be as objective and honest as I can. The actual price I paid was more than double the Groupon price, even though I had sent her numerous pictures of my hair and what I wanted done. I had purchased full highlights/lowlights for half-off the regular price. However, when I got there, she said it would be another $65 because of what I needed done. I'm a softie sometimes, and I just said okay and paid, but thinking about it now, I decided to mention it in my review. I also felt pressured to get an expensive keratin treatment that I really don't need. It was a pretty hard sell. My hair has been pretty healthy, even though it is highlighted, because I take very good care of it. I've also been under the care of a master stylist who does excellent work. After she finished the highlights and pulled the foils off, Betty said my hair had a lot of damage. Well, it wasn't badly damaged before, so I was surprised and deeply concerned. However, after I got home and gave it a rest for a week, I deep conditioned it and it's much the same as before - silky and strong overall. Any chemical process is hard on hair. I researched keratin and Brazilian Blowout treatments, and I'm so glad I didn't have it done. It turns out that formaldehyde fumes are released during the process, and it's unavoidable - no matter what the product manufacturers say. The formaldehyde is what binds the protein to the hair shaft. For a person with badly impaired lungs (I'm on oxygen all the time), this could have sent me into an exacerbation if not outright respiratory failure. That is per the MSDS sheet on the Brazilian Blowout products. So I immediately cancelled that appointment! One last thing, and this is strictly a pet peeves of mine: I really wish salons would use care in their music selection. Ask the customer if they have a preference. I have pretty broad taste, but some customers don't like rap or today's pop music. Other than that, I don't care. It's irritating to sit for over two hours listening to music that makes you cringe. For that reason, most spas play soft, relaxing music.

I had previously sent pictures of how I wanted my hair and make up and both showed up for me and again made me look beautiful on my wedding day. It was a relaxing and chill morning. I had been feeling kinda sick for the past 2 days I think nerves and she passed me some tums that helped me through my whole wedding. The little gesture meant worlds to me.
