I cant help but rave about my experience with Kristela at Kristela Ink for microblading! From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was in the hands of a trusted friend. Kristelas warm demeanor and genuine interest in understanding my preferences immediately put me at ease.During the consultation, Kristela took the time to listen attentively to my concerns and desires, offering expert advice and suggestions tailored to my unique features. Her passion for her craft shone through as she meticulously mapped out the perfect shape and color for my brows, ensuring they complemented my natural beauty.The actual microblading procedure was a breeze, thanks to Kristelas gentle touch and unwavering attention to detail. She explained each step along the way, making sure I was comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process. The result? Brows that exceeded my wildest expectations – beautifully defined and oh-so-natural-looking.What truly sets Kristela apart is her genuine care for her clients. She goes above and beyond to ensure that every individual leaves feeling confident and empowered. Plus, the cozy atmosphere of her studio made the whole experience feel like a pampering session with a friend.In short, Kristela at Kristela Inc. is a true gem in the world of microblading. Her talent, warmth, and dedication to her craft make her the ultimate choice for anyone looking to enhance their natural beauty. I couldnt be happier with my brows and cant wait to book my next appointment!

Kristela Ink Review:Kristela is AMAZING!!! She’s very knowledgeable and very good at what she does. I have struggled my whole life with no eyebrows and pale features and decided to give permanent make up a try many years ago and fell in love with it. When done by someone that knows what they are doing u can get some amazing results, save time, money and make ur life a whole lot easier. That’s IF it’s done by a talented and good artist like Kristela.Ive been wanting to get my old work touched up and learn more about training in doing it on my self. I have spent many years trying to find the right school or instructor that really has some talent and skills, someone I could really lean form. Then I was fortunate enough to find Kristela Ink Studio & Academy. She did an amazing job training me and gave me all the information and even all of the tools and supplies I needed. She really answered all my questions and helped me with all of the things I needed help with and is still helping me by being a great mentor.After my training I had her touch up my old tattoo work on my lips, brows and eyeliner and couldn’t be happier with the results! It all healed beautifully and Im LOOOOVING the healed results!!!Thanks Kristela!!! Truly an amazing and talented business woman! :)

I’m so glad I found Kristela! Her work is amazing and I love my eyebrows. She does a great job explaining the whole process and how to care for your brows as they heal. You do not want to go anywhere but the best for this kind of procedure and Kristela is the best!

Kristelas work is amazing. She listens and shares her expertise with you plus advice. I did powder brow and I love the result. The color did not come off as I thought it would in the first few days. The shape looks natural too. I highly recommend her.

Kristela is an artist and her work is the best. Ive worked with her over the last year - she did my eyebrows first. The results were so phenomenal and life changing (no more powdering in your brows!), I asked her to do my eyeliner and my lip blushing. As a busy mom and a professional, there is no time for make-up, and Kristelas services have been a game changer. On top of it all, she is professional, a perfectionist, and efficient. She makes you feel comfortable from the moment you walk through her door. Dont overthink the decision, you wont regret going with Kristela.

Just recently got my eyebrows micro bladed with powder combo. I met Kristela and immediately thought wow this is so great, she Took the time to ask me what it is that I wanted out of our visit. She offered explanations and options based on my brows and having old previous work done. She was open and honest and didn’t pressure me at all. I immediately felt comfortable and I know she has good work based on her website and social media. But what I love even more is how my eyebrows turned out!!! She was meticulous, took her time and they are absolutely perfect! I cannot wait until they’re fully healed. I am so glad I found someone for my brows from now on! If you are considering getting your eyebrows done and you are in the area I would highly suggest you go see Kristela! This investment is totally worth it and you will be asking yourself why you didn’t do it sooner!!

If you’re considering Microblading, this is the place to go. Kristela is an absolute pro - knowledgeable, skilled and listens to what you want. I’m blonde with fair skin and hair. I also lost my hair due to cancer, so now with it growing back in my brows aren’t the same. I also don’t have much hair in my head, so keeping my look delicate and natural was a must along with a tone that matched my natural color and that wasn’t too dark or warm. I couldn’t be happier with the results! Kristela gave me my dream brows.

After taking several permanent makeup courses over the years I finally found Kristela. She is an amazing instructor and her academy offers everything a PMU artist would need. I didn’t feel very confident until I took her course. Now I am giving people beautiful brows and totally love my job. I wish I found her sooner. Thank you!!

I recently took a class from Kristela on microblading and combo brows. The class was fun, engaging, and Informative. Kristela puts a lot of time and effort to give you the most out of the few days she has with you. I throughly enjoyed watching her teach and her passion for craft is beautiful and motivating! I took the class with 2 other students and we all received a starter kit that I’m still using as Ive started my pmu journey. Kristela also loves to watch you thrive and will answer questions and give you feedback even after you leave the class! You don’t leave feeling lost which is soo amazing with a career like this. Thank you so much Kristela!

I have always been very picky about who I select as an artist to change or add characteristics to the way my body looks (which is why I have no tattoos). After seeing Kristellas work through a mutual friend I knew I finally found the person who will create my eyebrows. From start to finish the whole process went smoothly. The initial consultation was thorough where we discussed the overall vision for my desired look and the process to bring it to fruition. When I was indecisive or didnt have the right answers to communicate what the shape or character of the brows should be, Kristella intuitively knew what that vision was and helped me find qualities about brows that would highlight my own natural facial features.Kristella follows really great sanitation and sterilization protocols and she has a very good chairside manner when it comes to your overall experience.FRIENDS! When she is done with your eyebrows, you will not regret it for a second. She turned my 1990s Pamela Anderson mistake of two overly plucked and unenven thin lines into full, balanced and natural looking eyebrows.It doesnt get any better than Kristella.

I recently did the 1:1 BB Glow training by Kristela. It was truly a amazing experience. She shared so much knowledge with me and even walked me through my first live model, I felt 100% confident in what I learned and the skills I gained from this training. The studio is absolutely beautiful and Kristela’s work is amazing!!!

Got my brows microbladed. Im super glad I did it. My brows are always perfect. No more having to pencil them in and then making sure not to rub my brows. The color is a beautiful brown. I already scheduled my appt to get my eyeliner done. I cant wait to get lips done.
