Jee is amazing! Found her on the Internet, and interviewed her along with a couple other people over the phone for my brows. I liked her personality the best, so I went in for a consultation and booked my appointment immediately!
The first session was painless, the touch up a week later was a little painful... But I'm coming up on my 1 year touch up and can't wait! I've debated getting my lips done with her too... She's definitely a skilled woman.
My review is long over due! I had my eyebrows done this last October 2012 with Jee after a lot of research and recommendations. Â I have been having my eyebrows tattoo'd since 2005, but they were starting to look too dark and heavy now that I am in my mid 40's. I was pleasantly surprised by my results after Jee performed her magic with a painless procedure with amazing accuracy. She has a very good eye for detail and showed me how not arching my eyebrows too much will actually open up my eye area. I went home a bit nervous of the results. She had let me know what to expect. And I was still ambivalent, because at first your eyebrows appear very thick and are swollen, but it was for only for the first day. Which is natural because she puts a numbing cream on and she's using brush strokes with a tiny comb line instrument. They look very dark and shiny because you have to put some ointment on gently to keep them moist. After a few days of following her instructions to keep them moist, not to rub them too hard while washing and to allow them plenty of time to heal. Resisting the urge to pick or scratch at them. It only took 3 to 5 days for mine to heal and shrink down a bit. I was getting compliments immediately. They made me look much younger and they looked a lot more natural with the fuller light hair stoke technique she uses. I have the option of filling them in with a dark eyebrow shadow for a more pin up look if I want to for the evening. During the day I have a clean and natural look. It is 6 months later and they still look good. The natural ink has not faded at all.
I would definitely recommend that you go see Jee for a consultation. She is a very warm and friendly lady. I felt very at ease and relaxed during the procedure. She made sure I was comfortable and gave me lots of opportunities to see what she was doing.
My only regret is that I did not get a chance to take my own before and after pictures. I will post some pictures when I am feeling brave and when I am in some natural lighting.
I looked for a long time until I thought this person would be great but Was I ever disappointed. I'm still have my eyebrows fixed from what she did to me. They were not like the pictures she showed me. They were Asian, I'm not Asian, I wanted thin and a fine line, I got a caterpillar over each eye! Watch out, she has a heavy hand.
Review Source:I scheduled to have my eyebrows done after looking at the before/after photos on Jee Kim's website. Â If I had any hesitation before going for my appointment, I sure as heck didn't after meeting Jee. Â She is professional and a total perfectionist.
Needless to say, I am ecstatic at the outcome, and my friends don't even know that I had anything done. Â Woo Hoo!
I am going back in two weeks to have my eyelids done next.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!!!
I had permanent eyeliner done a few years ago by someone other than Jee and it was an unmitigated disaster. Part of the service I paid for was a touch up a few months later. That person never showed up for my touch up appointment and I never heard from her again. Jee came to the rescue and finished what someone else started.The difference in the two permanent makeup artists was startling. Jee is extremely professional and her attention to detail is unsurpassed. She is conservative in her apporach which I so appreciate because the end result is much more natural. I decided I wanted my eyes a bit more pronounced and Jee was very accommodating in doing what needed to be done to achieve a result I was very pleased with. She doesn't rush through her work and makes the process so much more pleasant than I had experienced the first time. I didn't experience any pain with Jee. She was very careful to apply a numbing solution that minimized the discomfort. Permanent eyeliner has been a lifesaver on many levels. My eyesight has degraded so it became difficult for me to apply, it saves me time and I don't have to reapply makeup throughout the day.The compliments I have received are general in nature because the look is so natural. People know I look better but aren't sure why. That is the work of a true artist.
I have referred several others to Jee, including the person who does my eyelash extensions.
After months of research and working up the bravery to do it, i got both my upper and lower liner tattoo'd on by Jee... and it is fabulous!
She did the initial consultation, and touch up for free! After the first appointment she did a great job and I really liked it, but after the touch up it was absolutely perfect! There was really no pain at all. She invests in a very good anesthesia. The whole process for top and bottom took less than 2 hours. I cannot wait to go back and get my eyebrows done! Waking up in the morning, or hopping out of the pool and still having a fresh looking face is so nice!
I have since sent a few of the ladies from my office to go see her and they love theirs as well!
After having lost any remnant of "me" time after having a baby, I realized that I needed to find a way to make my day as efficient as possible.  I had thought of permanent makeup for years but never thought I would do it because most of the times it looks so unnatural.  However after researching several folks, both my husband and  I loved Jee's before & after photos.  She was the only one who didn't make her clients look like Cleopatra or an exaggeration of themselves. Â
Jee is wonderful from the first phone call to the actual process and the follow up one month later. Â She explains very clearly the process and the procedure is not painful at all. Â She is also a very engaging and warm women who takes her work very seriously and is a perfectionist in doing beautiful work. Â You won't be disappointed in seeing her.
Wow! I have to say Jee is definitely an expert in her field. She takes time when choosing which color to use. I had her tattoo my eyebrows and I am very happy with the finished product. This is the 2nd time I have had them done, the first time with a different tattoo artist that never looked anywhere as real as Jee's work. Jee uses the Soft Tap technique not a gun and the difference is unbelievable. I plan on having Jee do my eyeliner next. She's great.
Review Source:AMAZING...is all I have to say. Â I recently had my eyeliner done by Jee and was very impressed. Â There was very little pain (actually there were times it was actually relaxing..I know...weird). Â Jee was very sweet and has a great bedside manner with a gentle touch. Â My girlfriend had her brows done, which is something I would have NEVER suggested in a million years because they all look like one solid line that looks totally fake. Â However, Jee does this hairstroking technique which looks so natural. Â You can't even tell that it is a tattoo. Â So if you're looking to have permanent makeup done, I HIGHLY recommend Pretty Please. Â I have to go get my liner touched up, but since she did such a great job on my friends brows, I think I might just have to get it done myself...it's that good! Â Thank you Jee for such a wonderful experience! Â I will be sending more friends and family your way!
Review Source:Getting my sparse eyebrows done has improved my look and saves me time each morning in applying my makeup. Â It looks natural and subtle. The color matches my hair color.
Jee is a perfectionist and works very hard to create the best possible result.
The procedure is not painful; Jee makes sure the topical anesthesia is in full effect before beginning. Â It's no worse than a pinch or plucking your eyebrows.
I would recommend this procedure to anyone with sparse eyebrows.
Jee is amazing. I have never met anyone who has been such a perfectionist when it comes to how she applies permanent makeup. The last place I went to rushed me in and out so it was wonderful for someone to take their time and make sure everything turned out the way I wanted it. I had eyeliner done and it was completely painless. She puts numbing medication on and leaves it for 15 minutes and once she is ready, you can barely feel a thing. When I went in for my touch up I almost fell asleep! I also appreciate the fact that she convinced me to go more natural than I wanted (I wanted black thick eyeliner) and ended up going with a more natural look, using a dark brown color and having color barely above my lash line. She lets you take a look every so often and if there is anything at all you want changed, she will spend as much time as you want to make sure it's right. Couldn't be happier.
