The owner, Kimmie, is absolutely fantastic and Adrienne, whom I've had repeated sessions with is outstanding. She does the best brow tinting around and her lash job is perfection.

Four stars for Kimmie's patience! I visit Portland every summer for work, and was in search of a…read morelash technician while here, and came across Miss Knockout (after analyzing many Yelp reviews + noticing her experience with Asian eyes). I opted for a textured volume cat eye style, and Kimmie delivered - they initially looked amazing. Now, here is the explanation for why I have to ultimately dock two stars. While we're still ironing out lash retention issues (my right eye seems to be shedding more quickly than my left one - maybe the heat and humidity of Portland summers is the culprit?), Kimmie has been understanding and has scheduled me in for quick touch ups. I understand Kimmie has an extremely busy personal and professional life, but for me to have to take time off work to Uber to her salon is also frustrating for me as well. Even after my quick touch-up, I am still experiencing some lash shed, which should not occur so quickly. A fan even shed the same day of the touch-up which is frustrating. I've never really experienced this issue with any other lash tech, from LA to Portland. In fact, after my last touch-up just two days ago, I have already managed to collect at least eight (!) more fans that have shedded. However, I feel bad about constantly contacting the salon for the same issue. It's probably frustrating on both of our ends. I just want to note that I am a back sleeper and extremely careful about not getting my lashes wet, even when showering. So I know that my lash care is not the culprit - I suspect maybe my lashes have not been cleaned and prepped properly beforehand. After reading other reviews, it seems like there is one other general consensus - perhaps the lash glue MK uses is not of the best quality, as retention is dismal. Also, another small issue that rubbed me the wrong way is that when I called, the lady over the phone offered a 10% off promo for new customers, but when it came time to pay for my service, the 10% discount wasn't honored. I would've used that 10% discount as a cash tip towards Kimmie anyway, so I think ultimately it was a small gesture that she should have honored. Oh well. Regardless of not honoring the promo, I tipped anyway, at the end of the day. On a positive note, the MK space is very well-appointed and beautifully decorated, with snacks and drinks for waiting clients. I appreciated this little touch and level of customer service. And because Kimmie is a hardworking business owner, I hope for the sake of her business that it thrives!

She has been threading my brows on and off for two years now and I am continually impressed by her dedication to perfection and reliability. She considers every hair before removing or keeping it to make sure the shape is flawless. Booking is quick and easy, I'm almost always able to find an open appointment within the next week or so. She also does a lot of research to find and carry only the best products for your face. When I have a question about makeup, lashes, or skincare in general I'll always pose it to Stephanie and every time she has an educated answer. Its not easy finding someone you would trust with your face but my brows are in great hands with Stephanie!

I've got huge Persian brows and so they really need tender care. Also (and perhaps most importantly since Gigi usually does a nice job) she asks too many personal questions (i.e. why I'm not having another baby).

I realize she may be bored doing eyebrows all day, perhaps she should put on talk radio or stick to simple, non-invasive questions.
