I'm so glad I found sweet Jenny at Brow+K-Beauty Lab. She was very detail oriented and listened. She was patient and kind. Her place had the ambiance of a spa. I love how she sent reminder texts and emails since life always seems to get so busy. She made my eyebrows look so natural and even. If you want to get lots of compliments, save tons of time in the morning, and get a great deal with a professional, this is definitely the place to try. Be sure to check out her deals on facials, too!! This place is a hidden gem!!

Booked a Tuesday appointment for a back facial, because I've been searching everywhere for one in…read morethe East Bay and I was so excited when I found her website listing one for $120 for 60 minutes! Booked through the website, Paid my deposit and everything and was super excited for the experience. The description is: "Treat your back to a luxurious Back Facial that improves elasticity, hydration, and texture while stimulating collagen production for firmer, more youthful skin. With deep cleansing, exfoliation, and nourishing masks, this rejuvenating treatment revitalizes dry or uneven skin on your back, leaving it smoother and brighter." Got the confirmation text and email and confirmed everything. When I got there, Jenny very kindly informed me that she actually no longer does the back facials, she only does face facials now. I was definitely disappointed, but I had already driven there and had the day off, so I opted for the 10 step Korean facial instead ($199 before tip). She said that she was currently doing an offer for $199 instead of $300+, so I figured why not. This one is 90 minutes instead of 60 minutes. If it's your first time coming, I would recommend getting there 5 mins ish before your appointment so you can park and find the entrance to her room - there's a lot of other businesses here so I did have to take a lap to find the right door in the hallway. Pros: The whole facial experience was actually pretty great - the whole place is clean, easy parking out front. And it's very involved, in a good way. it includes massage to the face, shoulder, neck, arms, as well as all the regular facial stuff like extractions and a mask. She also uses the Plasonic machine (which can feel hot like it's burn/zapping your skin) but you can tell her if it feels too hot and she'll change the settings. She got rid of my blackheads with an ultrasonic skin scrubber and extracted all my whiteheads. There's also red light therapy. The studio is super clean, and Jenny is super sweet and nice, definitely easy to trust the Korean lady. I definitely would not mind coming back for another facial - I left there with my skin feeling super soft, she gave me some skincare tips, and it's a great location if you live in Castro Valley or San Leandro. I would definitely recommend wearing comfortable and thinner pants, because it gets pretty hot in the room with all the treatments. My highest praise would include that the extraction part wasn't as painful as other facials I've had, and the shoulder/neck/arm massage was surprisingly really helpful in relieving some pain I had from work! Cons: - I think it was really hard for me to give a 5, since I feel like I fell for false advertising thinking I was coming for a back facial. Things worked out in the end and I was due for a facial anyway - but I would have done some things differently (like not washed my hair beforehand, since it got a lot oilier after the scalp massage) if I had known I wasn't getting the back facial. Her service is great and I would highly recommend her for facials - and it sounds like her microblading is well appreciated too - but just be aware there are NO back facials here.

Teresa is always super nice and attentive to my needs. Now let's move on to the services, I came in after not having my brows professionally waxed in probably two years, I had an okay shape, but they were definitely thinned out. In my initial visit I mentioned to her that I wanted to grow them out and she did an amazing job of listening and fulfilling my needs. Ever since I started getting my brows waxed with Teresa, I am constantly getting compliments. It has also made the process of filling in my brows so much easier and quicker since I have a better shape to follow. I also have uneven brows (ones a bit higher) and I don't know how she does it, but she makes them look even without changing the shape, true magician. If you want a great, friendly, attentive waxer, I definitely recommend her! Teresa is great at what she does, not only does get the shape perfect every time, its also quick and painless.

I really wanted to love this place because the salon itself was beautiful and the staff was…read morefriendly, but unfortunately the prices and quality were incredibly disappointing. First, I was shocked that a basic kids' pedicure for my 8-year-old son cost $27. All they did was trim and clean his nails, followed by a short leg massage. That price seems extremely high for such a simple service, and there was never any discussion of pricing beforehand. The biggest issue, though, was my own nails. I paid about $55 for my gel manicure--$35 for gel polish, plus an additional $20 for a French tip and a small Mickey design. When I woke up the very next morning, less than 24 hours later, the entire gel polish had already peeled completely off one of my thumbnails. The French tip and Mickey design on other nails were also already lifting and peeling. I've never had a gel manicure fail this quickly. If I lived closer and didn't have to drive across the bridge, I would absolutely return to request a full refund because this level of quality is unacceptable. Between my dad, my two kids, and me, we spent close to $500, so we expected much better workmanship. My daughter's nails actually turned out great, so this review is strictly about the quality of my nails. One other thing that bothered me was my dad's pedicure. The staff kept offering him additional services during the appointment, and he kept saying yes without realizing each one came with an extra charge. By the end, his pedicure totaled over $100 plus tip. I really think pricing for add-on services should be clearly explained before they're performed so customers can make informed decisions. I've attached photos showing my thumbnail the morning after my appointment, along with photos I took the night before. It's incredibly disappointing to spend this much money and have a gel manicure start peeling in less than 24 hours.

It makes the appointment more of a personalized experience. She really takes the time to map out your eyebrows and listens to your requests. I drove over 2 hours to see her because I was unhappy with previous microblading that I had done and knew that she could fix it. One of my eyebrows was too rounded and the other had my ideal shape. I explained my concerns to her and rather than trying to convince me that, "it looked fine," she spent extra time mapping my brows to give me a perfect shape. My appointment with Julie was almost a year ago and I am still very happy with my brows. I would highly recommend her to anyone, and will continue to drive to her for any touch ups that I may need in the future.
