No matter what I ask of her, she makes me look and feel amazing. We've done everything from traditional glam (smoky eyes, etc.) to Tulum-club-themed make-up, and she knocks it out of the park every time. At each event, multiple people (friends and strangers alike) ask "WHO did your make-up?! It's incredible!" I cannot recommend her enough; she's fabulous!

She did a fantastic job on my extensions, and when it came to my well being, she noticed I had been picking at my skin and mentioned that that could severely impact the healing process afterwards (the picking was an OCD tendency from a traumatic accident). She wanted to do more research before moving forward. Although, I was disappointed at first, as I was really looking forward to the microblading, I later realized the art of true professionalism displayed for her clients! Her studio is also very clean, and serene. I actually dozed off during my eyelash extension appointment. She is worth every penny!

I'd never had micro blading done before, though I've needed it for years! My finished brows were even better than I'd expected since she had very little to work with. Even in a magnifying mirror it's almost impossible to tell the brow hairs aren't real. I will definitely be going back when needed.

I honestly can't express enough how beyond thrilled I am with the results of our first session. After struggling with my DIY at home job turning my hair orange I decided it was time to have a true professional illicit change. I'm so glad I found Brittney and she had tons of work of mouth recommendations. From the second I walked in the atmosphere was inclusive, kind, fun, warm, and inviting. Brittney took the time to listen to my concerns and didn't shame me for doing my hair at home. She understood exactly what I was going for. Her expertise is evident because she turned it into art. She transformed my orange hair into a stunning blonde and educated me throughout the session. She also gave me tips on products and how to maintain this color. It was an enjoyable experience and I felt so at ease the entire time. She is totally passionate about her craft. I left feeling confident and can't wait for everyone to see my hair. I wholeheartedly recommend Brittney to anyone looking for a talented stylist who cares about her clients. I already have my return appointment scheduled. Brittney!
