Yamitza is truly the BEST. I've been seeing her for 3+ years. I'm picky about my lashes because I…read morewant them to look natural but enhance what I already have, and she really gets them perfect every single time. They're beautiful, soft, never overdone, and they last for a while (2-3 weeks still looking brand new). Her work is meticulous and always turns out looking incredible. The salon itself is clean and well run, all the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. But really Yamitza herself is half the reason I love going to see her. Over the past ~3 years, she has become one of my favorite people and my appointments with her are genuinely some of my best hours of the month. I spend the hour catching up with her and I leave with perfect lashes every time. I cannot recommend her enough!

I've gotten my eyelashes done here for over a year by Andrea and I've always loved the results. I…read moreget so many compliments and she's truly a master at her craft. The past few months I've been pregnant and she's been super accommodating making sure I'm comfortable. Nothing makes a mama feel better than a little glow up while she's growing and growing. And nothing feels better than women supporting and being there for other women going through pregnancy! Highly recommend!!!

I have been going to Saiko's salon for upper lash perm since 2019. She is amazing at what she does…read moreand through all my perms, I have never left dissatisfied! Her pricing is VERY reasonable compared to other salon's I've researched in LA and the quality of her work is superb. For appointments, It's easy to schedule a time and date through text. I like to go around every 2 months after the lashes completely fall straight. To keep them healthy, I just lash serum nightly and have absolutely no damage from the perm. Appointment goes for about an hour long, sometimes a little over depending on how long your lashes need to sit with the chemical for. It's a painless and easy process. For parking, there is free parking all day (with her receipt that you can show the parking guy) in the small plaza where her salon is located on the 3rd floor. You'll see Daiso when you enter the lot. There's also street parking around which can be packed. Another alternative is parking down the e next block next to Marshalls, Sushi Stop, Matcha Village which is free with no validation needed. Highly recommend going to Saiko if you are interested in lash perm!

Jin cares about her work, and always has me walking out with the most beautiful set of lashes. In that time, Super Lash has also remodeled and the space feels clean and very peaceful as I spend my ~hour here getting a fill every 3 weeks. Super Lash also brought in someone who specializes in eyebrow microblading, which was a godsend when I was due for a touch up last year. I will also continue to have my annual touch-ups done through her as she did a fantastic job color-matching to my hair and I consistently get compliments on her work. If you need a great lash/brow place in Santa Monica, know you'll be in great hands here!

if you want to have the most awful, insulting, experiences of your life go see this witch. I…read morepurchased her groupon and was so excited. this was my first time doing eyelash extensions , but something I have wanted to do for so long. first of all, this witch never answers her phone. like ever. I tried so many times to no avail. so I contact groupon. only after that she finally texts me back in a very poor manner. I let it go. I make the appointment and go in. she is extremely unwelcoming, didnt greet a new client, didn't say hi and just said 'close the door'. no please or anything. I go sit in chair, assuming to, and she says 'can we get this started?'. what!!! I came an hour early at her request, changing my schedule to be accommodating and she's rude rught when I walk in!! ok so she does the lashes. while doing them, and again my first time, I had a few questions. she basically tells me to shut up, making it so uncomfortable, that I was silent until she was done. she finished and I did think they looked pretty BUT ... less than 24 hours later they start falling out. so, of course I reach out to her. who wouldn't? I sent a couple texts, one which I asked her if she could fix them, and she responds saying no. like straight up. I replied just saying so I they will be like this, looking bad , for the next 2 realizing she blocked me!! blocked for asking her a couple questions? come to today, less than 48 hours later, and I wake up to 99% of the lashes gone. I text her and call but she has me blocked so I go to her website and just make an appointment. then she decides to unblock me, cancel my appointment and send me a very insulting text message. like i did something to her. I was shocked and i still am. I could not believe her message and her treatment. I have the proof of all of this! I am extremely disappointed, insulted and disgusted by her behavior. who treats a client , especially a new one, in such a poor manner? DO NOT GO TO HER!! DO NOT! her prices are good but she's a witch and it doesn't last anyway.

Belris is the absolute BEST for thoughtful and gorgeous beauty enhancements. Bella is not only a…read moretrusted professional but a true artist. She offers a calming environment, consultation, privacy and phenomenal services. For me it's worth the very fair prices and the 1.5 hour drive from my home. I look forward to my appointments like a hidden getaway that feels like a visit to a trusted friend who understands and welcomes all types of beauty. Highly recommend Belris

I have given this place 2 chances now and both have been very bad. First time I went, I told the…read morewoman (Bel) to not use tint because I am allergic and to just be gentle with the skin around my eyes . She left residue on my eyelid (last photo) that i noticed after i left. Came back in to have her remove whatever was left over and i still ended up getting a bad reaction that caused me to have swollen and red eyelids. Second appointment (book Jackie this time hoping for a different outcome) i tell her what happened last time, she assures me she will be more careful. I did not get residue left over or a bad reaction, but my lashes are now super over processed, damaged, and brittle. They are so thin and sparse now I'm devastated. (This did not happen the first time) It was a noticeable difference. The brow lamination also caused my brows to feel very dry. Other than ... I noticed the hair she plucked out !! Why would she take a giant chunk of hair from the inner corner of my brow ?? It was not like that before my appointment and it was immediately like that after. Maybe she didn't pluck but something happened. I don't understand... anyway. Would not recommend this place and will not be returning.

There was a scheduling issue with my appointment when I arrived, where I had booked with Tram but…read moreshe was already attending to another customer. She was able to offer a solution to still accommodate my appointment without inconveniencing the other customer she was mid-lash application with or me. My service was great! Tram didn't make me feel rushed, even given the circumstances, and explained everything super clearly. I walked out of there very happy with the results and Tram even included a free add on service for the scheduling snafu. Definitely will be back. Go ahead and book your services here without hesitation!

I requested hybrid, wispy lashes full set. I first found them through an ad on Facebook that said…read moreany style for $68. When I got there and showed the last tech how I wanted my Lashes she seemed to have an attitude about the style, length & lash mapping I wanted. Then she says that I could only have a classic set with the offer. I showed her the ad that I responded to which states any style. She went and spoke with another lash tech & when she came back she told me that she would honor it, but only work on my lashes for one hour. typically it takes two hours to do a full set of Lashes so I asked her how long do you normally take to do a set? She replied from 1 1/2 -2 hours. So basically I'd be getting a subpar service. I found that to be completely unacceptable and considered to be a bait and switch, which is illegal. I can't believe she even offered that to me smh literally made no sense. I think special deal or not that they would want to do their very best work on every client. The whole point of the ad is to bring new customers in. Why would I ever come back if you didn't do a good job to begin with. I would never choose Lash pilot again first and foremost they lie in their ads, the staff at that location were very rude and they did not give me a refund for my deposit. People these days are so quick to ask for a deposit to make an appointment, but they are real slow to give you your money back when they don't honor their end of the bargain. Also, it was a very big waste of my time. I have an event that I need to go to this evening and now I'm screwed because they wasted my time and didn't follow through with what they advertised. Skip Lash pilot and go somewhere else. Also, I was there for a good 20 minutes before I was even greeted. The service was gonna begin late.

This review is a little overdue. I found laule'a more than 2 years ago by searching specifically…read morefor a Japanese nail salon. Most gel nail places are way too harsh in your nails, and I was looking for a more non-toxic approach. I am not a fan of the soak off removal approach, as my nails become brittle. I was also looking for a salon that didn't do acrylics because of the smell because I was pregnant then. I am happy to say I am a regular, both Kazumi and Aiko are wonderful. My nails have never been healthier and I often get people commenting on the designs. They are super fast and do such great designs, anything you can think of or if you have examples they are very skilled. Their prices are very reasonable for the west side for the quality you get. There is also a small parking lot that's free, another positive for WLA. The inside is super cute and clean, Kazumi has many cute plants and crystals, you will feel relaxed.

I honestly really wanted to like this place. Kazumi is truly an artist in her nail designs. That…read morewas why I took a chance and tried her salon before my wedding. The way she works is very zen-like. She keeps her tools very neatly in one place, she is very resourceful, she is very quiet and smooth with her movements. She took extra time to make sure my nail art was good as it can be. The reason why I give 3 stars is because although she is very talented, she lacks in basic nail skills. Initially I was very happy with my white ombré nails but I noticed my cuticles weren't as smooth as they typically would have been if I had gone to my usual spot. I remember noticing that my cuticles weren't cut and Kazumi told me that cutting cuticles would dry them out more. Sadly, as the day went on I was stressing out and the next day I had to get my cuticles fixed right before of my wedding at another salon. The technician actually told me that my nails "looked terrible." I am sure Kazumi gives great work to other clients, but I was disappointed and I don't know if I will come back. My cuticles aren't always in the best shape (I'm a healthcare worker) but I expect at least they would've been cleaned up better considering the $50+ I spent and the fact that my nails were going to be photographed up close for my wedding.
