    I enjoyed every aspect of my time with Meg. She made sure that I was comfortable and informed about what was happening and would happen, and I found her delightful as a person. I am also, not so incidentally, happy with the work she did.

    Everything about working with Meg has been fantastic. Aside from her talent at permanent beauty, she is also extremely kind and easy to work with. I recommend her completely to anyone looking to get their eyebrows done.

    Megan is the BEST. She is professional, thorough, friendly, organized, detailed, and truly cares about her clients and their results. I had my brows filled in (nano brows) and lash line enhancement, and I'm so in love with the results. I rarely put on more than lip stain and a little blush now, which is such a huge time-saver each day. She just did a lash tint and lift, and I no longer need to bother with mascara. I'll be going back for a lip blush soon. I can't recommend her enough. You will be so happy you found her. - Ashley
