Both times Manisha Trevidi (owner) has been professional and given exceptional value. Her designs are gorgeous, and what's more, the guests love them. She has tremendous patience and a smile for the youngest guests, and for all others as well. For our most recent party, she worked with us last-minute when we needed to push the start time forward an hour due to an impending snowstorm. I recommend her services highly, without hesitation, and gladly!

Rashida did my henna for my wedding!! While I had only seen her work on Instagram, and never met…read moreher before hiring her for the job, my thoughts were the following 1) She was very impressively early at our home, prepared, bringing her own light, materials, chairs, table etc - You name it, she had it. 2) she was very adjusting (I had forgotten my evening outfit, and couldn't get my arms done until my fiance picked it up), but she was able to do my feet in the mean time and didn't complain that we were running behind 3) She did EXACTLY what I requested - I asked for specifics like the NYC sky line, air planes, coffee cups, you name it - she did it. Her work was beautiful 4) She took a lot of pictures a long the way! She did a beautiful job documenting and sent me all copies afterwards for my own INSTA which I appreciated. 5) My guests loved her! They all were very impressed by her friendliess, quickness, henna design, etc. 10/10 Would definitely hire again!

If you're thinking of doing pmu or nervous to take the leap to do permanent makeup like I was ,…read morethis is your spot! I am huge on reviews and have been wanting to do permanent makeup for my brows for quite some time now. I studied this places work constantly lol and watched an interview video which the owner was in. (On her website) I finally said I'm gunna do it! So happy I did! I am incredibly pleased with this place. The studio or factory rather is super cute and cleanly. I love the decor of how everything is set up in there. I went to see Quinn-She's very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions I had. I felt extremely comfortable in her chair. Quinn took her time ,asked how I liked everything and the color was on point! My eyebrows did look dark for the first initial week (to be expected) I definitely felt like I needed some makeup on to look normal lol but they wear a bit after 2 weeks and healed very nicely. It feels great not having to do my brows when im getting ready for the day. What I also loved is that they check in with you after a week to see how you're doing and how your brows look which was very appreciated. All in all , in my opinion The owner is killing it and so isn't everyone who works for her. Quinn was amazing the Glow factory is awesome and im so happy that I bit the bullet and chose this place. You won't be disappointed! (Picture is the first week)

I sent Sue some inspiration pics and photos of my dress with some notes and she immediately understood what I was going for. It was amazing watching her work - her intuition was so great. We also had about 10 guests get smaller designs on their hands and she did something unique and special for each of them, depending on what they wanted. Sometimes they would show her a photo of another design and she'd replicate it, other times they would tell her to do anything she felt inspired to do and it always turned out amazing. Overall we were super impressed with Sue and would highly recommend her for any henna needs!
