    Under fluorescent lighting (excuse my pimple patches)
    Maia M.

    I had such a great experience with Tina! She did permanent makeup on my brows and lash line, and I couldn't be happier with the results. My brows look incredibly natural and turned out absolutely perfect, I was initially nervous about them looking too dramatic but she was very clear about what to expect and tailored them perfectly to what I wanted. She is extremely knowledgeable, precise, and professional, and she took the time to follow up afterwards. Her space is also beautiful, clean, and such a vibe! I felt comfortable and confident the entire time and also appreciated how she mapped and numbed the areas beforehand. I was being kind of a wimp during the lash line portion and she remained patient and understanding hahaha I would 100% go back and highly recommend her to anyone considering permanent makeup. I've attached some photos in different lighting throughout my healing process. Brows were flawless the entire time! I add a wing to my eyes as you can see in the photos. But otherwise no makeup needed for the rest of my lash line and brows. Thank you thank you thank you Tina!

    Healed 6+ months after of lash and left brow! (I usually do a quick brow gel and trim sesh, but just wanted to show how it looks as is)

    Alright beautiful lovelies, your search for eyebrow refinement is over. You're in Tina's safe and skillful hands now. Getting permanent makeup of any kind requires careful consideration and research if you want to avoid what might call regret... You really don't want to go to just anybody with the cheapest price/ assume all artists are skilled in the trade and align with your ideal brow. What I appreciate about Tina is that she's up front about her approach/opinions and will be 100% transparent. You do not want a "yes man" for a service like this! She obviously cares about making you happy, but she's also making big brain moves to make sure you're both on the same page on being educated about the style of NATURAL brows and managing expectations for the healing process and beyond. I almost went with another artists that didn't quite match the style that I was looking for (they were more bold/looked like they were full face makeup brows) because I was having a difficult time finding someone like Tina. Thank GOODNESS a dear friend brought up Tina's Instagram page (which is hilarious & educational!) and filled with incredible examples of the kind of soft and subtle brows that I dreamed of! I was really scared of having obviously done brows where I'd look strange if I did not have makeup done. Being 100% healed I can tell you that no one could tell I had permanent makeup done, I would just get comments and compliments about how "together" I've been looking and how neat my brows have been! My eyebrows were not too thin to begin with, but there were random gaps and some pretty obvious asymmetry to the shape at the "base" so Tina helped to even them out in both the shape and the fill! The pictures speak for themselves. I'm not the best at shaping or plucking my brows and always took forever trying to fix them up, but now I have a guide that helps me pluck lightning fast and I can honestly just brow gel most days without worrying about filling them in and taking extra time to fix them when I mess up and make them too heavy looking. I also got the lash enhancement done at the same time!! I really think Tina is incredibly talented to have been able to get those done when I was a SUPER twitchy and paranoid client LOL The logical part of my brain knew it would not happen, but the irrational part kept thinking the pen would go in my eye even though there was numbing and I could not feel it. And yet they still came out so clean and I'm SO happy she was able to get them done for me being the nightmare I was. Don't be afraid of pain!!! It will either feel like nothing or like someone lightly scraping a credit card on your brow... if that makes sense. Truly nothing to worry over. They have been the best investment in myself I have made in ever and I truly hope that if you're thinking of getting permanent brows done, go with Tina. She's the real deal, straight up, prideful of her work, and most of all considerate of your face! Check out my photos. Just want to clarify I did not go in for the touch up session because I'm very happy as is even though I have oily skin, but if you wanted a touch more definition than how my healed brows are, the touch up could get you closer to that and is an option. I am just already so thrilled as is and will be going back in time as needed.

    I was looking into permanent make up options and found Tina on Instagram. What initially interested me, was her knowledge and expertise on powder brows vs. microblading, which can lead to scarring. I do not wear makeup often, but I wanted to have a natural, effortless look. When I reached out to Tina with my questions, she was helpful and patient on sharing her education and background as a PMU artist. I had found out later that Tina had received her training in various major cities abroad, which was evident in her professionalism and high quality service. Tina walked me through every step, always asked how I felt about my brows, and what look I wanted to achieve. Even though I trusted her fully, she kept me in mind the whole way. During the powder brow process, she consistently asked me how I was doing, pain level & checked in with my comfort level. Afterwards, Tina shared detailed an after care plan and schedule for touch up. I recently went back in for this touch up session, which was an awesome way of ensuring I was satisfied with my look. Each of our skin & brows are different, and Tina was phenomenal with helping me find beauty in my brows. TL;DR: I highly recommend Tina for your permanent makeup needs.

    I love being able to wake up with my brows already done. Tina did such a good job! She took the time to make sure we were both happy with the shape and color. It's almost 2 years later and my brows still look amazing. The girl knows what she doing! Highly recommend Her cute studio is located in Kahala

    Came to Tina last October (2021). This was the first time I've had microblading. The experience was positive. Tina met with me and answered all of my questions. She offered virtual or in-person, but I preferred an in-person consultation. Both the first and follow up session went well. Her studio is located across from Kahala Mall and parking is not a problem, and it's free. What I liked about Tina is that she took her time with the outline of my brows and made sure I liked the shape before began her work. Tina makes sure you know what to expect since everyone's body reacts different to microblading and how their skin absorbs the ink. I do have to warn those who are looking into this procedure, read the all the directions, prepare the best you can, but understand your body may react differently. For example, I followed the directions exactly as they were written, I went without caffeine, alcohol, Tea, medication for more than 24 hours...yet I kept bleeding during the procedure...a lot, which Tina kept mentioning. When your eyebrows bleed a lot, your eyebrows won't take the ink as well. So for those who also work in this field, just be aware that some of your clients may just be prone to bleeding more than others. I won't list how much I paid, but if you're interested please contact me privately.

    Made my life so much easier! I have really thin brows, so I would always draw on my brows EVERYDAY. I never really thought of getting it done because I was scared I might not like it. I used to work a customer service job and I've seen sooooo much terrible brow tattoos. Until one day I came across Tina's instagram page and I was impressed with her work. Decided to get my brows done with her and I've never been happier with how it turned. Exactly how I wanted my brows to be. Setting up the appointment was easy. Her website has everything you need to know pre and post appt. She also sent them to me when I booked my appt and few days before my appt. She's very nice, honest and I felt really comfortable the whole time. we talked like we're old friends catching up even though that was the first time we met each other. The after care was easy, my brows didn't look like angry birds brow and peeled fast. Wasn't itchy at all.

    After looking at many ads, sites, and word of mouth, I chose to go to Yuriko of Summer Eyes…read more I've been going to Yuriko since 2022 for initial and maintenance eyebrow and eyeliner procedures. I chose Yuriko and would not go to anyone else because: Artistry 1. She is an artist. Her work shown in photos is even, smooth, enhancing, and natural. Her color choices are good. I'm cautious about anything permanent, I trust her. I get compliments on my brows and eyeliner. So far, 5 people have asked me for her contact info. 2. She individualizes each person's procedure and listens to what end effect is desired. She noticed that I raise my eyebrows a lot in conversation, so adjusted my eyebrow design to work with it (so I wouldn't look shocked/crazy). 3. I'm not a stunner, but Yuriko has helped my face look like a put together version - AND I don't have to do my brows or eyeliner daily. Experience 1. Yuriko has years of experience and training from both Japan and the US. 2. She continues to keep up with industry standards and products. She goes out of state for training, product shows. Professionalism 1. Yuriko measures, consults w you, explains, and we agree on what's going to be done before she starts. 2. She's warm and approachable. e.g., I am comfortable telling her I need more numbing cream during the process. 3. She provides pre-and post-instructions before the procedure. 4. Her prices are reasonable. Facilities 1. Free parking 2. Clean and cozy 3. Nearby bathroom available I'm glad I found Yuriko. She is sweet, caring, artistic, and approachable.

When that day came around Lily numbed my lips and started. Everything was fine until she started talking about her personal life. It honestly started to get very annoying and awkward because she also talked about these old men that she was seeing and doing more with. I was disgusted wanting to walk out but couldn't. Also my lips has developed a severe reaction where it tingles and it keeps drying up. I'm awaiting on a test where they had to punch my lip to get skin. They say it may have been from filth which the place is cute but there's garbage, cotton tips everywhere! I'm now worried if the needle was clean! Save yourself and go somewhere else that's safe! It's not worth it especially when I paid in full. The vibe was okay at first but seriously too much information to a complete stranger! I'm glad I didn't pay to get my lashes done!

I had naively asked for a less dramatic and more subtle lift but it did my hooded eyelids no favors and I wasn't happy about how it looked. I asked if I could rebook a week later and she got me in right away and gave me a lovely dramatic lift that I am so pleased with and she didn't charge me for the re-do. She also does some advanced facials and microneedling and tattoo makeup. I already booked my appt for my next lashlift and a brow shaping. Ansje is skilled, knowledgeable, and so professional- I'm so happy that she's set up shop in Kaimuki! Also btw she said newer perm solutions now don't require the no getting wet for 24-48 hours but just 4 hours! So glad I don't have to wear swim goggles in the shower anymore!
