Let me begin by saying first impressions mean a lot to me. When I went to a Belinda's a place of business I was pleasantly surprised. I love to see someone in business that appears to have made the efforts to plan out every need they would have to succeed with their business. I felt a bit more comfortable when I walk through her door. My next thought was how long has she been doing these procedure...s and I wanted to see some pictures of work. I had done online research and I knew what I was looking for. We had a consultation and we talked about the coverage for my eyebrows, eyeliner, and lip liner work I wanted done. Today I got my eyebrows done. Step-by-step we talked about everything I wanted done and everything she was able to do. The results were wonderful. I do want to inform you that my experience was a bit of annoying pinching. However, I wanted the best results and I said I would suck it up and lets Belinda complete her work. It was worth every annoying pinch. For me, I didn't experience much swelling or discoloration. I was wonderfully impressed and surprised at the results. I am looking forward to having the rest of the procedures done. Belinda has a great personality and I enjoyed working with her in regards to this very permanent procedure to my face. Do your research first. Then go see Belinda, she's great
