I just wish I could convince anyone who was thinking of permanent makeup to see Ms Himes. I love the work she did for me, but it's when I tell others and show them, and they say, "wow, it looks so natural, I can't believe it." That's when I know I choose the right person to do my makeup!!

Once I presented with a severe complication, they refused to provide me with any kind of medical care or even advice. After a few days, they began calling constantly to badger me for photos. That was the extent of the "help" they offered. The nurse that performed the improper injection, Sheila Scheib, is still employed by them and still injecting patients. Most of the positive reviews here are fake. If you've had a good experience here, you're lucky. Keep in mind that they aren't aware of all proper injection procedures or how to treat you if they make a mistake. You're really taking a chance.

I'm a dentist, and my vision is critical to the care that I provide. I had LASIK done in 1998 by…read moreDr. Birchansky when I was 34 years old. My vision before surgery was -7.5 in each eye, and I had different degrees of astigmatism in each eye. The correction was amazingly accurate and i experienced immediate satisfaction with very little discomfort. I'm now 51 and haven't needed correction (glasses) until just recently. I'm in the process of scheduling for round 2, and I'm taking my fiancé in for correction as well! Thanks Lee, for the many years of a successful corrective surgery.

I was scarred at first, since there is a laser involved in the procedure, but they were great about answering questions, and the entire procedure took about 5 minutes. It didn't hurt at all, and even the recovery was pretty painless. They give some great tips to help with any discomfort, and are there to help in any way they can. I highly recommend them, and would do it again, but luckly I went to Fox Eye so I wont need anything else done with my eyes for a very very long time. Well worth the money to not have to fuss with contacts or glasses!

And, Blake is conscious of keeping her rates very affordable, because everyone deserves to look and feel this great.

I'm leaving this as a 4-star review only because I have an expectation of longer hours (I was told everyone was fully booked, but Sam was the only person working on Saturday at 2 PM; I walked in fully expecting a bustling shop full of stylists and patrons), quicker call-back for an appointment (I got a text a day after I called for an appointment; my expectation is within an hour of inquirty), and a tidier shop (the shop is clean but kind of messy). Please don't get me wrong, I appreciated the kind responses to my inquiry and was happy Sam was able to accommodate me on short (3-day notice) and make me look great. Curiously, when I went to book online Sam was not an available option with whom I could book an appointment. I hope the person responsible for the portal will ensure they can schedule time with him. Please go to see Sam. Thanks for making this Chicago girl look and feel great.

I just tried this brand for the first time the other day and I can't say enough about how awesome…read moreit is. To start, I have very sensitive lips. As in, I have a 5 year old daughter at home who frequently wants to apply various lip glosses to my lips, but if I get within ten feet of them, I break out in sores around my mouth. So, I am constantly looking for a brand of lip gloss that won't induce an allergic reaction. I recently picked this brand up after seeing their 100% Natural, certified organic labeling and thought I'd give them a try. The best thing about the Mongo Kiss Vanilla Honey balm (named for it's mongongo oil ingredient) is that it really smells like true beeswax. I also enjoy that the scent is subtle and yet the stick smells nice. The balm dispenser is also quite thick which makes it easy to apply and provides a lot more long lasting coverage. Because it is so natural, be careful not to leave it in a car for too long. Probably the best things about the stick is all the causes that the brand supports: Cruelty free, GMO Free, Gluten Free, and wind-powered? What's not to love.

I also recently bought a couple bath bombs and they are da bomb! (wa waaa ;D But really, the bath bombs are great - they give off a pleasantly strong and soothing scent when dropped into the bath, which fills the air to bring on the zen, and leaves the skin soft and rehydrated. I recently discovered they also sell eye compression packs that can be heated or cooled, which I love - they're filled with a heavier substance that has enough weight that when used to cover the eyes during a migraine, there's a gentle compression on the eyes. Now I only wish they also sold bubble bombs. I'm hooked on the ones that Lush makes but I'd love to find a locally-made option that's also using simple ingredients.
