I had my doubts. Who wouldn't - I mean - 5 stars from everyone? Ok, I have doubts no more! And now I understand why we have all given her 5 stars. Not only is she the most professional and dedicated permanent makeup artist I have found, but a perfectionist as well. Â Since she is a makeup artist, she knows what is right for your look. I wanted my eyeliner to look a certain way, but she showed me how it would look so much better another way. I had my brows and eyeliner done and will be going back for lips! Â Without a doubt, she is a true artist that deserves every single star she gets!!
Review Source:Yelp removed my previous review since they said it contained second hand information (my mom was the one that received the service and not me). I did, however, make the appointment and wanted to provide my feedback again that Jennifer was difficult to reach via email and phone and it took several attempts to get in touch with her.
My advice is to please consider the other reviews here carefully before deciding to go with this business for your permanent make-up. It seems weird to me that all of the reviews here are a solid 5-stars so I would take them with a grain of salt.
Thank you, Jennifer! Â Besides being a very nice and lovely person, Jennifer is a wonderful makeup artist! Â She did my eyeliner in Feb'13 and lips in March, and did a fabulous job! Â I asked for a very natural look and her application was just perfect for me. Â The eyeliner is awesome and makes my eyes "pop" even with no mascara or other makeup applied, and of course I can always add more emphasis for nighttime. Â My lips were a challenge since I have some significant scarring from a car wreck ages ago, and she applied the liner and lip color so well that my lips look much more even, and still very natural. Â I highly recommend Jennifer for your permanent makeup!
Review Source:Jennifer is very sweet and a true artists. Â I came to Jennifer because I had really boched eyebrows done by someone else. Â I have blackish brown hair,and the women who did my brows the first time gave me grey blocks. Â It was awful! Â I would never leave the house or go the gym wiht out makeup forever water proof eyebrow gel on. (BTW this stuff is the best and never budges). Â But this is the exact opposite of why I wanted to get my brows done. Â
I came to Jeniffer and she first color corrected my brows, and then she went back and gave me that beautiful brush stroke look.  I could not be more pleased.  I finally do not feel awful about my brows--what a relief!  I also had Jennifer do my lip line, and it looks great as well.  I'm super gald I found Jeniffer.  Thanks for makeing me feel  confident again without makeup!
Hi,
I had Jennifer outline my upper and lower lids as though  I had just put eyeliner on.  I have had such a hard time for years doing a straight line.  And it never smears now.
Â
This is the best present I could have given myself. Â I am oh so happy with the results. Â Jennifer is pleasant, totally attentive, professional and an artist. Â I picked her name without any recommendation, only Yelp raves and I am so glad I did. Â Her office is immaculate, her mannerisms, professional yet extremely calming. Â
What more can I say. Â My girlfriend had her eyebrows shaped and colored, and she is very happy, Â upon my recommendation.
Need I say more?

As a natural blonde with pale lashes and thin, nearly invisible eyebrows, I was tired of waking up in the morning and needing to put on a bunch of makeup to feel like myself. (Only to have my face wash right off if I went for a swim or took an extra shower.) I decided it was time for a more "permanent" solution.
After reviewing quite a few permanent make-up portfolios, Jennifer's work really stood out to me for it's symmetry and natural feel. To me, her work seemed superior even to artists charging double her prices! I made an appointment with her last September to have both my brows and upper eyeliner done. What can I say? It was so worth it!!!!
Right off the bat Jennifer was very professional and warm. Her office is clean, and she opens her needles in your presence so you know they are sterile. With the numbing gel, my eyebrow procedure was nearly painless. The eyeliner was pretting intense (especially because I like a nice, thick line) but Jennifer reapplied the numbing gel as often as possible and offered breaks when needed.
For the first week or so after my permanent make-up application-as Jennifer had warned me-the tattoo lines/color were very bold and appeared misshapen due to normal swelling. But after that first week? Wow! My eyebrows look a million times better now than on my best day with pencil and powder. And the eyeliner is great! I usually wear it just as is, but it's easy to change up the color with a gel liner when I want something more dramatic. My daily make-up routine has gone from half an hour to 15 minutes or less :-)
I don't hesitate to recommend Jennifer to my friends, so this online review is long overdue! If you're seriously considering permanent makeup, I say go, go go! You won't regret it!
I also went to another person prior to seeing Jennifer. Â My experience with the other woman (not Jen!) was in my opinion, a complete nightmare. Â One eyebrow was higher than the other, and the other one was longer than the other. Â When I got home that evening, I searched online trying to find someone who could help me rectify the problem. Â Thankfully I found Jennifer. Â I emailed her with my story, and she told me exactly what to do. Â A couple of months later, I went into see Jen, to see if she could fix what the other woman had done. Â She spent a lot of time with me, and when I left, I felt 100% better about my eyebrows. Â She takes what she does very seriously, and is a true professional. Â She has years of experience and it shows. Â I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Review Source:Listen up because I am supremely qualified to write this review.
Why, you may ask?
Here's why: Jennifer is the SECOND person I've had tattoo my eyeliner. And my experience with her was night and day different from that other lady.
I will just tell you about Jennifer, rather than complain about how painful, unfriendly, harsh and overall unpleasant my other experience was.
Because Jennifer is the complete opposite. First of all, I was referred to her by a friend who had been getting work done by Jennifer, and she went on and on about how great she was. Ha, well I'LL be the judge of that. I mean, Stacey loves EVERYONE and I'm a little more, umm, realistic. Â
But that having been said, I gave Jennifer a go. I am SO GLAD I DID. Â Her office is professional and inviting, and she is a lovely and sweet woman. The first and most important thing she does to you is apply anesthetic to your eyes, and then leaves you by yourself in the room for 45 minutes to take a nap or just relax while the anesthesia takes full effect. THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE between a horribly painful experience and one that you can hardly feel. Â Trust me when I say that getting your eyes tattooed is not for sissies--- but if you go to Jennifer, it is absolutely as painless as you can get.
She is meticulous, careful, gentle and responsive. Â She is THE BEST at this, I promise you. Â
Included in the very fair price of this service is a follow-up appointment. I just went to mine and we found a few spots we wanted corrected. Â She took care of it and I was on my merry way. My eyes look totally awesome. THANK YOU, JENNIFER!!! Â I will be sending all my friends to you!!!
As a mother of 2 small children, I don't have much spare time to spend on my make-up in the morning. I had thought of permanent makeup to ease my morning routine, but feared the pain of the procedure and ending up with an un-natural looking result. Thank goodness I found Jennifer! She took the time to find out what I really wanted and make sure it turned out exactly right. Plus, no pain! Now I get compliments all of the time on my eyes and nobody has any idea that they are enhanced by permanent makeup. Thanks Jennifer!
Review Source:Jennifer Portley is an amazing permanent make-up artist! I was SO nervous to get permanent eyebrows and end up like Spock. But, my natural eyebrows are REALLY light and when I don't wear make-up, I am so plain. It prohibited me from going swimming, being seen without make-up, etc, etc. But, now that I have eyebrows, it makes all the dif in the world and I feel more confident to do some of the things I didn't want to do in fear of how I would look.
Jennifer did an amazing job and it lasts for years. I am just so happy with them it's unbelievable. I wish I would have had them done years ago.
Check it out. She also does eyeliner, lip liner, etc.
