She's not just a great lash artist, but great conversationalist that makes you feel beautiful inside and out after the session.“

The ambiance is very welcoming and professional. I highly recommend this place!“

“Wow! I was told that Shawn and the folks at La Nana were great but Shawn far surpassed my lofty expectations (think princess here, folks). I had a last minute need and he came through for me. I needed him to be creative and to give me an appropriate arrangement for the space and the occasion and LaNana nailed it. The flowers are spectacular and are exactly perfect for what I needed. LaNana is now my Go To for the perfect floral accent with expert, outstanding service. Thank you, Shawn and LaNana!“

“I absolutely love Joy Beauty & Eyelash! I'm literally obsessed with my lashes. I've lived in three different cities and Joy Beauty has been my all time favorite place for individual lash extensions. I love natural/classic lash looks and Feven (the owner) nails that look for me every visit. She really listens to what you want and also asks if you're satisfied, which I really appreciate. I love that my friends and family can't even tell that I'm wearing extensions! Also, Feven is so sweet and delightful to be around - I highly recommend her business!Service: Eyelash extensions“

“Nicole is an all around all star and someone you can trust 100% to make your hair and makeup dreams a reality. I've gone to her twice for a haircut, once for full balayage, and once for toner. Before I went in for a toner it had been six months since we had done color and I was still getting compliments from people on my hair color! Most recently I decided to book Nicole for my birthday updo and makeup and she was phenomenal! I was a bit worried because the appointment was at 9am and my event wasn't until 3pm. She utilized a special sewing technique for the loose curls look I wanted and it lasted all day through the night. Before I went to bed I took out the pins and my bun was still intact when I woke up because of the sewing! Magic! I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup. I loved how she did my makeup and how she worked with my natural features. I felt like a princess. Thank you, Nicole!!“

“Thank you, Jinny! You are amazing. As a mom, putting my kids first is always a priority. You took excellent care of my teens during high school and continue to care for all of our skin needs today. Your delightful demeanor, effective skincare products, and treatments truly make a difference. I always feel cared for and walk out rejuvenated and glowing. (Pictured is the LED light.) Thank you Jinny for taking care of our family, and if I could get my husband in, I would! Men!

Highly Recommend! Questions, just call me!“

“Thank you for a wonderful haircut today, Mary! My son is around 20 months old, and the toy car that he could sit in during the haircut, the toys she had for him, and Mary's friendly temperament made all the difference. His haircut turned out beautifully. Mary's service is an asset for toddlers in the East Bay.“
