She asked about my current regimen, any problems I was experiencing, and an in-depth look into the products I was using. Everything was sanitized, clean, safe, & Cindy wore a mask throughout my visit. I plan to make my visits to Renewal a monthly investment!

Cindy is great! She did my makeup for my wedding and I got nothing but compliments. I didn't know…read moreexactly what I wanted, but I showed her a couple of photos I liked from Pinterest and she created a look that I loved. The makeup also stayed in all day (the only thing I retouched was my lipstick), and it looked great in the photos. In addition, she did my eyebrows and lashes, both things were great. Cindy is also wonderful at assessing your skin's needs and recommending a skincare regimen. The location is also nice and relaxing--it was such a welcome break when I went there a couple of days before my wedding to get my eyebrows done. Bonus: Cindy was also nice enough to do my mother's makeup for the wedding. As many of us know, mothers can be a little stressed before weddings, and Cindy was nice enough to meet with my mom when she arrived in town, put together a look for her, and do her makeup on the day of the wedding. I would highly recommend Cindy, whether you are looking for skincare services or makeup for a special event.

I got bohemian braids that were waist length and the service she provided was quick, painless and clean and exactly what I was looking for. At the end she ever trimmed up the stray parts from my braids along with curling and boiling the ends. She is the sweetest person ever and is an amazing conversationalist, too. I have never had my hair braided to this degree and I plan to come here from an hour away to get my hair done every single time. 10/10 experience, recommend to everyone looking for a professional, and amazing braider in the iowa city area!

Kris made sure to talk through the aftercare process (even though I've been tattooed before) and free touch up policy before we started, then had the paperwork ready to go. She also made sure to go over the final design with me one more time and then helped place the stencil so it frames my shoulder really well. She not only showed me the sealed needles but also talked about which colors and shades she chose and why. Once we got rolling Kris was so easy to talk to the time just flew by. I hardly felt a thing until the very end. 4 hours very well spent, and a beautiful tattoo is done.

All of the tattoos were done by Scotty Potty and he is a great artist, just don't let him scare you with his bitter, angry, old man thing. He is actually a super friendly guy and has a lot of interesting things to say. My one piercing done here was from Steve and it was a 0g punch on my left lobe to fix some old scar tissue. It turned out wonderfully and I couldn't be happier. Steve has a great "bed side" manner and really knows his stuff. He always explains what he is doing and what to expect next which is great. The prices are good, they have a nice selection of jewelry, and their are plenty of artists to choose from so you will probably find someone that can do whatever you have in mind. Just bring in some reference material or a solid idea and they can draw it up and jam it into your body permanently!
