I waited until all of my brow touch ups were completed and healed before writing this review so I could give good feedback. This review is long because getting a tattoo on your face is a big decision. If you're curious about why I chose Oxana and all the details about the tattooing and healing process, read on, but if you just want the short story, I'm extremely happy. I went from having virtually no eyebrows, to getting compliments on them all the time. My makeup routine in the morning has been cut by 15 minutes, and I'm comfortable leaving the house with no makeup on because my brows look so perfect that it makes my face look more lifted, more framed, and more "done" even without mascara and lipstick on. Be prepared for multiple treatments, and know that it will be a couple months before you get the result you want, but once it's complete, you will be satisfied. I couldn't be happier, and I only wish that these were completely permanent. Now, for the long story... BACKGROUND I researched permanent brow tattooing for almost a year before I finally made my appointment. I consulted with different brow artists, including some outside of Colorado. I don't have any tattoos and the thought of getting one on my face was a little scary, and I wanted to be sure that I was choosing a reputable and skilled artist who knew what they were doing and wouldn't leave me with something on my face that I wished I could erase. I also wanted to make sure it was a safe process. I looked at FDA and health department regulations, the educational and training requirements, and the reviews for the training centers people went to. OXANA & MILE HIGH MODERN BEAUTY Rest assured that Oxana operates a very high quality operation. Her facility is spotless, she uses very stringent cleanliness procedures and is certified by the health department. She's been trained all over the world, and uses a safe, high quality ink. She's extremely good at color matching, and making sure that she uses ink that won't turn weird colors when they fade. I narrowed my list down to the top 3 artists, one from New York, one from Los Angeles, and Oxana. After researching and reviewing their work, I felt most comfortable with Oxana, because I've seen her work in person and felt confident in her ability to draw brows that fit each person's face. I also felt more comfortable with an artist in my own state because it's easier to get to touch up appointments and to visit her if something went wrong (though nothing did). PROCEDURE I had my brows touched up twice (for a total of 3 procedures). The first time, I was anxious that it would be painful, but it wasn't. Your brows will be numbed with a cream, but it wears off. When they're numb, you pretty much don't feel a thing. When it wears off, you feel scratching similar to a safety pin scratching you very lightly at a 45 degree angle. It's not relaxing, but it doesn't hurt. My first appointment took about 3 hours. The 2nd and 3rd to an hour and a half. 5 days into the healing process, they peel, flake off, and fade away. I knew this was expected, but I wasn't prepared for the beautiful design of my brows to disappear as much as they did the first time. I emailed Oxana in a panic thinking I was a bad candidate for tattooing and considered cancelling my second treatment. She reassured me that the amount of fading was normal, and that they would darken over the next several weeks, which they did. It took almost 3 months to complete the process, but it was SO worth it. HEALING PROCESS I was meticulous about the healing procedures. I kept my brows clean, didn't get them wet, and bathed in the sink for 5 full days to avoid humidity and splashing. I avoided the sun, going outdoors only with a hat on, if at all, didn't work out for 10 full days, and tried my hardest not to sleep on my face. The second treatment I learned to sleep with a neck pillow, and this kept me from ending up on my face at all, even if I turned on my side. RESULT People are constantly complimenting my brows, asking if I just had them waxed because they always look like I just walked out of the salon, or like I just walked out of the makeup artists chair because they are so perfectly matched to each other and to my face. I never have to think before I wipe my face when I work out, or sweat, or go to the beach, wondering if I remembered to take my makeup off or if I'm about to wipe one brow off. Sometimes people say things like "Your face looks really good, did you do something different?" and I tell them my eyebrows are tattooed on, and they are always surprised because they don't look harsh or fake or "in your face" like people expect them to. They just look like I am really, really good at putting on my makeup (which I'm not). I really couldn't be happier, and I highly recommend Oxana if you are considering getting your brows done. You will not be disappointed, and you can be assured that you are going to get a top quality result. read more

Had a great experience in the salon today! Oxana did a great job and created a unique look for me! She has a great personality and always treats you like a queen as well as she cares about your time and money. The office is beautiful and very clean, the music during the session is very relaxing. Oxana did her best for my eyelashes to look just the way I wanted and last a lot. I have the sensitive eyes, but it was not a problem for her. She applies the eyelashes very gently and since she is a professional, I didn't feel a thing during a session. I definitely recommend Oxana for those who cares about the quality combined with a great attitude, who wants to get a great look for a reasonable price! read more

I recently completed certification in eyelash extensions through Mile High Lashes, and I cannot say enough good things about Oxana and Anita! The registration process to take their certification class is really easy, and their website is super easy to navigate. Included in the price for certification is your eyelash extension kit, which contains literally everything you need to start doing lashes. In this two day course, you really learn a lot! Both instructors are very knowledgeable and experienced, but they're really patient and make sure that you understand the concepts before moving on. You are able to spend some time on theory, as well as hands on, which really helps! Mile High Lashes not only gave me the tools that I would need to start doing eyelash extensions, but they made learning fun! After leaving on the second day of class, I could not wait to get started! I know it's because Oxana and Anita gave me the tools I'd need to succeed! read more

Oxana is by far the best Denver has to offer for lashes and permanent makeup. She has advanced training from industry leaders and has worked tirelessly to perfect her techniques. Additionally, she is extremely honest in what she can and can not offer clients which protects clients from spending money on a service that won't benefit them in the long run. Oxana is extremely professional and sets the bar high for all other artists. There is no one else in town I would trust with my own permanent makeup or lashes. read more

Oxana did a fantastic job on my ombré (stardust) eyebrows. Holy symmetry Batman! She was incredibly meticulous about getting the shape correct and I just couldn't be happier. They're still healing but I've already received so many compliments- I think the typical one is "holy crap, your eyebrows are on point" haha Thanks oxana for your expertise, I'm telling everyone I know! :) read more

Highly recommend! Oxana is one of the most professional and talented teachers I have had in this industry. She is patient and supportive. I have since taken two classes and would say if you are starting your PMU journey, here is where you should start. Smaller class size makes a big difference when you are learning something new. Oh and the unlimited support after you take her class is amazing as well! read more

I had a facial done, and it was phenomenal! She took great care to explain what each product does and asks lots of questions about your skin type and chronic problems. Her massage technique was so unique, thorough, and very relaxing. She massaged arms, shoulders and neck as well as face. I absolutely love the technique. The only downside is the size of the space. It is a rented room inside a hallway full of other salon type treatments. Great concept, just wish the rooms were bigger. read more

I usually like to wait a few refill sessions before determining if I like an eyelash extension job. I did just that with Mile High Lashes and Oxana does a great job on applying eyelash extensions! She's very thorough, reasonably priced, and the lashes last a long time on me. Oxana has a cute and modern room rented out in a building filled with other beauty businesses on the 1st floor. read more

I loved the volume lashes that Oxana did for me last week. They were so dramatic but light at the same time. I have very sensitive eyes and she is the only one I trust with my lashes. Thanks Oxana! read more

Oxana was wonderful today! Her suite/studio is stylish, clean and relaxing, and her customer service is amazing! She made sure to prep me for the appointment, paid great attention to detail during the appointment, and followed up with me afterwards. Not to mention, my lashes came out just the way I wanted - longer, fuller, and natural looking. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great eyelash extension experience! read more

Oxana's work is stunning. My lashes have never looked better and I've been to several lash studios. I constantly get complimented on them and they hold up beautifully in between fills. Best esthetician I've encountered in Denver. If you're on the fence about who to book with, chose Oxana. You'll be thankful you did! read more

Oxana is amazing! I just got my Lash Enhancement done 2 days ago and I am THRILLED with the results. She is thorough, professional, her office is clean and her methods are super hygienic. I was definitely nervous (it is, after all, a permanent tattoo RIGHT at the lash line), but Oxana's professionalism set me completely at ease. She kindly explained what she was about to do before doing each step and asked how I was feeling during the procedure. The procedure for me was painless. The sensation was like a vibration or tickle. The eye drops are the only 'uncomfortable' part, (anyone who has experienced keeping eyes open while drops are being administered knows what I mean.) I completely recommend Oxana if you are thinking about eye lash treatments or microblading etc. read more

So happy I had my brows done with Oxana. I'd been thinking about getting them done for years and I'm happy I finally did it! They look super natural - not that tattooed shiny look that some people have after getting permanent makeup. Nobody would ever know I have permanent makeup aside from the fact that my brows look perfect all the time. It also saves me so much time in the morning. I was a little worried about how dark they were the first week but they faded to a very natural color. Very happy with the results and will keep it up. read more

In my last post, I forgot to mention that I also lead an active lifestyle. When I'm not working in the hectic ER, I do CrossFit 4-5x weekly, run, hike, and snowboard. My lashes hold up well and keep me looking gorgeous even when I'm getting down, dirty, and sweaty. read more

Mile High Modern Beauty - My touch up done 6 days ago. A couple CrossFit work outs, a couple winter storms on the mountains snowboarding, a hike later. - Eyelash Service Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Oxana is the best! She is so talented and professional. I work in the same industry and she is someone I trust completely.

Oxana is truly an artist and gave me #browgoals with her amazing work! After searching for the right place to have my eyebrows microbladed, I am so happy to have waited until I found her! She was incredibly patient and meticulous as she ensured I was completely satisfied with the end result. Her aftercare instructions were clear, and her work speaks for itself. I'm completely thrilled with how they turned out! read more

Do not let Oxana touch your face! She'll tell you that she's a professional, and then you'll walk out of her office with permanent sharpie eyebrows. She used my discontent with her horrible work as an opportunity to try and sell me corrective measures. After declining to allow her to do more damage, she sent late night messages blaming me for her job. NO TALENT AND EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL. read more

I went to Oxana for my eyebrows and I am very happy with my experience! She was very honest and informative about the different semi-permanent options and I ended up choosing the Machine 3D Hair Strokes technique. She was very patient with me and thoroughly answered all my questions while I was trying to decide. It's only been two days, but I am very happy with my results so far! Oxana did a great job with the shape of my brows and was very patient and accommodating to my "perfectionist" personality! I look forward to getting my touch up and seeing the final results! Thanks Oxana!! read more

Excuse me? Exactly what did I lie about?? You can post before and after pictures all you want because the fact of the matter is right when I got up front your table I went to the salon bathroom to put on some lipstick and blush and when I looked down into the sink, there were a million lashes in there and I was shocked. As far as my lashes being brittle and damaged, well, my lashes had not changed since I went to my usual master lash technician in Las Vegas and her lashes were phenomenal-VERY full, dark and lush. Difference is, she knows what she's doing. And, if there's one thing I've never been accused of, that's lying, but I guess if that's your only defense, calling me a liar, that's pretty sad, childish and very unprofessional. read more

Oxana is truly a professional when it comes to lash extensions. My sister went to another place for her extensions, and she complained that her lashes were stiff and uncomfortable and looked fake. Oxana at Mile High Lashes uses the most soft, natural-looking lashes that make it look like I was either born with perfect lashes or I am wearing the most perfect, non-clumping mascara ever! It was a joy not to have to wear mascara at a recent wedding where there was a LOT of crying. She takes her time to apply them perfectly, too. It has been three weeks since I got my full set with one fill last week, and my lashes look perfect. read more

I went to Oxsana to get my lashes done for the first time and she is very professional and provides a relaxing lash extension experience. She made sure that I got exactly what I wanted. She was also really great at informing me of aftercare instructions and what to expect from my lashes. Thank you so much Oxsana! I will definitely be back. read more

Oxana's great! She was very knowledgeable and took her time measuring my brows to ensure they were even. I love them and can't wait for my touch up! read more

Amazing! Oxana is wonderful and has done an excellent job! Highly recommended for any service! Love my lashes!!! Thank you!

I've been wanting to do this for so long now and finally decided to give in. I'm so glad I did. I love my lashes. They are dark and long, but yet look natural. After I had my first set done, I actually went to get my eyebrows waxed and made mention of them. The technician said they were the best that she has ever seen, and that she has seen a lot. I just had my first fill in done and this is absolutely my new obsession to pamper myself. Oxana is the best! read more

Fabulous lash artist. She is professional, hard working and does quality work. Your eyes are important! Trust her with them and you will be thrilled with the end result. read more

Oxana is AMAZING! After my first trip to see her last June, I was totally hooked! I had only planned on keeping my lashes for a quick Vegas trip I was going on, but they were simply too fabulous and I've never stopped going back! And my super sensitive eyes have never been happier!! Prior to getting my extensions I would always eventually create an allergy to even the best mascara's on the market. As a result, my natural lashes would fall out in clumps, leaving big bare spots. Now, my natural lashes have grown back and are better then ever without ANY bare spots and zero allergy problems. They are healthier then they've been in years! Each visit with Oxana is a treat. From her super stylish private suite, to her soft touch, and great background music, I always leave feeling pampered and relaxed. I would highly recommend her. She's the best in town!! read more

Great atmosphere. She listens and gives you what you want. Fall asleep and wake up with great lashes! Very competitive pricing compared with other places! read more

BEST IN DENVER! Once you go to Oxana, you'll never go elsewhere. Every time I get my lashes done, I always fall asleep. It's so relaxing and I awake to the most gorgeous, fluttery eyelashes! Facials/Chemical peels are amazing too. I've gotten so many compliments that my skin is glowing!! read more

Oxana is a true professional. You will not be disappointed. LOVE!

Oxana gave me the best facial I've ever had :) Her knowledge in knowing what your skin needs & doesn't need is fantastic. I didn't feel like I was being pressured into anything and she had great tips & suggestions for each time I came in. I'm happy to have found such a great esthetician who make the experience relaxing, and I see great results in my skin since I've been seeing her :) read more

Im new to Denver and was lucky to find Oxana - Mile High Lashes. A good lash tech is truly hard to find and I'm very very picky about my lashes looking natural and gorgeous. She has a very nice, clean office that was easy to get to and parking was right out front. The appointment program she uses is very nice as it sent me text reminders and confirmation of appointment. The overall experience was a great one and I would highly recommend. Oh: and she runs great specials! read more

I hate to write a negative review especially since Oaxana was very pleasent to deal with but I was very dissappointed with the outcome of my eyelash extensions. I had them done a week and a half ago and immediately two days after my appointment they just started falling out. I would expect a couple to fall out here and there but these were coming out in clumps. I asked her for something curly and dramatic and they were not so I am going to have to buy falsies to get the look I really want and thought I paid for. I bought a groupon but it was still pretty expensive compared to other places but I thought anything worth getting done is worth getting done right. Also just a heads up to those of you thinking of purchasing a groupon the full set is supposed to take a couple hours and she puts as many on in that time frame my appointment was just a little over an hour. This would be a good place if you want to add a bit more eyelashes to your own set but if your looking for a dramatic look skip this place. read more

I got my lashes done for my wedding and they look amazing! Just the right length and fullness! I will recommend to everybody.

Oxana is amazing! She had been doing my lashes for two years until I relocate to another state. I am so sad I can't see her anymore. I also have gotten eyebrow extensions and eyebrow microblading from her. She is the only one I would trust to do this. She has taken such good care of my lashes! She really knows what she is doing, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for eyelash extensions or microblading. read more

I have been going to Oxana this year for lashes and have nothing but an excellent experience and amazing lashes. She is very professional and you can tell she takes great care in her work. I always look forward to getting my lashes touched up because it is a very relaxing experience. I am leaving Denver for the east coast and am very sad to have to find someone new. Oxana was kind enough to do some research for me and provided a thorough list of places she thought were good on the east coast. She will be greatly missed! read more
