Working with what was left with my previous set (at my request), she set me up with a beautiful set of lashes at an utterly reasonable price. She wasn't trying to rope me in with a deal. She provides the same excellent service every time. I have been impressed with all the care she puts into applying the lashes. I had never had a technician use a primer on me, and Lisa goes above and beyond to use products to ensure a steady hold. The whole experience is so quick and comfortable! My fill takes only an hour and I have a lot of lashes. All of her attention to detail and technique means that my eyes don't burn and my lashes don't stick to the lower lashes. It's a dream come true after my other experiences with experienced technicians in Albany and NYC. Lisa's office is clean, cozy, and well ventilated and her prices are utterly reasonable. My lashes turn out beautifully every time. What is not to love?

I've gotten eyelash extensions countless times at several places around NYC and Albany. Angela, by…read morefar, does the best job. Every other place has been a disappointment and I had a hard time looking for an eyelash spot I really liked enough to stick to before finding her. I have dead straight eyelashes that grow out straight down, making them difficult to work with, which I blamed on my Asian background. Usually, extensions would weigh down on my natural lash, sometimes obstruct my vision, and would fall off quicker. It was hard for me to get a good curl. I saw Get Minked on Yelp and took a chance because I really liked the photos that were posted. Plus, I noticed a wide diversity in her customers. It was super easy to make an appointment online. During my first visit, I explained to Angela my past frustrations with extensions. She said, "they don't know what they're doing. It has nothing to do with you being Asian." Her confidence in her work reassured me, but of course, what really sold me was the end result. Yes, she really does know what she's doing. I got exactly the fullness and curl that I wanted. The lashes are of great quality and are not shiny or fake-looking. They feel soft, fluffy, and light. She takes her time and she uses a great technique. I've come back since and have gotten different styles, lengths, and even tried bottom lashes; each time, they looked amazing. My go-to is the mink mega volume lash. I'm really surprised that this salon doesn't have more raving reviews on Yelp. It must be because her many loyal customers want her all to herself and want to keep her a secret.

I also have blond, barely-there and thinning eyebrows and although I was extremely nervous, she gave me great brows - exactly how I personally wanted them - Not too angular and extreme.

I scheduled meeting Mary for a consult several months ago. I just finished my 6 week touch up appointment and couldn't be happier with the results. Mary is a skilled professional, she walked me through the options available, ultimately I went with an ombré dot rather than line microblading look, which was more in line with what I wanted as an end result. She checked with me for shape and color, it was a collaboration and very reassuring. Measurements were carefully taken and a good amount of time getting numb and check ins to make sure I remained numb for my comfort were appreciated. I loved the results so much I went back for a brow tint a few weeks later and now have become a lash client. I highly recommend the salon to all of my friends & family. This is where you want to go for expert, professional work.

In fact, I had to re-schedule my initial appointment & they were very accommodating. The day of the appt I was greeted upon arrival & quickly pointed to the waiting/lounge area. The space is beautifully decorated. I didn't wait very long at all. Eventually Sophia came out to introduce herself & we headed to the room. She asked me a bit about my skin as well as my personal skin goals. She gave brief info about the process/products used throughout the facial but otherwise allowed for silence & relaxation. She also gave a recommendation for how often I should have this service done & answered my question about another service as well. Overall, the facial itself was amazing & I would definitely return.

UPDATE: I'm now four months out from my appointments, and my five-star review stands…read more During my first appointment, Ashley used the hair stroke method (creates the illusion of individual hairs) on most of my brows, and the powder fill method (solid color) on the ends of my brows. Unfortunately, because I have large pores and oily skin, the color didn't take that well and my skin didn't hang on to the beautiful single-hair definition. Over the weeks in between my two appointments the color and definition faded as the skin shedded. I knew from doing research online ahead of time that this was likely to happen; oily skin and large pores will not retain the fine strokes as well as other skin types. You must go into your microblading appointment with the understanding that because not one skin type is the same, everyone will have different ink retention. Poor ink retention is caused by skin type or poor adherence to aftercare. Based on this, Ashley used only powder fill for my touch up. She also suggested going with ink one shade darker than my initial appointment. Powder fill is absolutely the way to go for oily skin. The ink barely faded and the shape is great. After my touch up appointment I went out on a limb and deviated from the standard care instructions that I had followed after my first session. Instead of using barrier cream and dry healing, I washed my whole face as usual with my normal mild cleanser starting the day of my appointment. I believe this may have contributed to why the powder fill ink retention was so successful; I never had oil hanging out on my brow area pushing the ink out of my skin. This was a risk I took that could have gone sideways, but thankfully it worked out. Please don't follow my example because it may not work for you. ------------------------------------------------ Trust your brows with Ashley. I had consultations with other microblading technicians in the Albany area and I chose Urbane over all of them by a long shot. I had high expectations and Ashley exceeded all of them. I went to her with very, very sparse brows, and I left with natural looking brows that suit my facial features and bone structure. The work that Ashley did is indistinguishable from my real hair; her work is that good. Do research online about what to expect during and after microblading. Go to your appointment with photographs of your desired shape and color, and do trust Ashley's feedback and suggestions about shape and color. She has a very good eye. Follow the aftercare instructions perfectly.

Oh my hearts delight. I see both Katie and Diana and once ya get me started I may not shut up!…read moreI'm old so I don't look good in photos but I've watched Diana grow from a small salon to a diverse empire and it's been amazing to be along for the ride. She's done eyelash extensions for me, waxing, micro blading (I'm due fyi) and katie has done facials and waxing on me for years. I have no idea what mojo Katie does but my very horrible thyroid riddled sparse eyebrows look sleek and shapely after a waxing. Her facial is extensive and calming to my dull and hormonal skin. I always feel so relaxed with each of them and when I arrive I feel like a queen! I don't get much pampering and I certainly am not rich but their prices are fair and their service list and skills are impeccable. I would trust either of them with any of their services. Let's put it this way, if I come into money, I'd happily get every damn thing on their menu.... monthly! I could never stray. And if you ever did, you'd be back!
