Skin and Lash by Tami

I just went last week to use the groupon I got for a facial. Overall, my facial was not bad. The groupon was a good deal and I had nice experience. I didn’t like that it is hard to get a hold of them verbally over the phone. When I first called no one answered and I left a message. My message got returned via text which I didn’t like, but I found out after my service that they don’t have a receptionist (which is why they didn’t answer the first time I called –they were with a client). So again, you have to be patient with getting a hold of them and then patient again because when I called to schedule my appt mid December, the earliest appt I could get was a month later. The other thing that I didn’t like but isn’t a BIG thing was that during my facial there was some time (I can’t remember how long or how little that time was) where I was left alone. I wish she would have massaged my neck/​shoulders to utilize that time but I was left in the room. It was the first time I had a facial where nothing was being done for some time. Other than that, if you’re looking to get a facial done at a reasonable price I would recommend you get a Groupon for this place!

It was my first time getting eyelash extensions back in December. I was going back and forth whether I wanted to try it or not. I wanted something where it was low maintenance but didn’t cost an arm and a leg. I called Tami in November to make an appointment and she was booked for a few weeks out due to the holidays, but I’m so glad I still booked it because it was such a good first time experience for me and I’m so happy with the results and how long it’s lasted!
Tami was super awesome! She’s very informative/​professional, yet so friendly and easygoing. I was about 7 months pregnant in December and she advised that it was okay for me to get the eyelash extensions as long as I was able to lie on my back for at least 2 hours. She didn’t recommend it doing eyelash extensions at all, if you are in your 1^st trimester though.
I was always kind of nervous about lash extensions. I wasn’t sure if it was going to hurt or feel uncomfortable. Prior to starting, Tami asked me what kind of look I was going for (natural or bolder look) and explained how the process would be done, as well as how to care for them after application. Because she was so pleasant, I was immediately comfortable with her. Once she started, I felt so relaxed; I even fell asleep during the process! Haha… and probably snoring a little too. She had such a steady hand, I didn’t really even feel anything.
My lashes turned out AMAZING! So natural looking and I was surprised how light it felt. I thought it would feel bulky and heavy like the fake eyelashes you glue on to yourself but it’s really not at all! She advised that if I’m taking prenatal vitamins or use a lot of make up or sleep on my face or rub my eyes, the lashes will come out faster. I ended up doing my fill about 5 weeks out from the first appointment and they still look fine! Yes – a little sparse compared to when I first got them, but it’s a very gradual fall-​out so it won’t make your eyes look like they are bald and empty right away. Just make sure you don’t touch your eyes too much.
