Angela is AMAZING at what she does! I got blush lips and dusty eyeshadow/eyeliner and I couldn’t be happier! Great atmosphere, great customer service, and great services. I will definitely be going back.

Amazing! I got my lips tattooed by Angela and it could not have been a better experience. I had asymmetrical lips that I was always self conscious of and Angela was able to even them out so beautifully and naturally. She listened to everything I wanted as far as color (a natural dusty pink) and executed it perfectly, in addition to that she was extremely meticulous when drawing my lip shape and making sure it was exactly what I wanted.I love my lips and absolutely recommend Angela!

My first micro blading experience and Erica was amazing. I wanted it natural as possible and I had a sparse spot in my brow from a scar I got when I was little and she did great. I get so many compliments already and I haven’t even had the touch up session! Thank you!

First off, the studio is SO beautiful and comfortable. The front desk staff was welcoming and so nice! I got velvet lips done and I worked with Lina, who is just as incredible in person and I thought she would be. Lina was SO friendly and understanding of my needs. She was professional and thorough and knew how to help me make decisions based on what I wanted. She gave the such a perfect shape and beautiful color! I am obsessed with my lips and would 10/10 recommend her!

The studio is gorgeous, and Rachel was so professional. I have always had thin, straight brows, so I wanted just a little more shape. She did a wonderful job on building on what I already had. Love the positivity here too- when I mentioned that I thought my eyebrows were thin and too straight, she reassured me they were already beautiful. Really appreciate the work they do here, and love waking up to my perfect brows every morning!

And SO SWEET. Everyone I interacted with at Studio Meraki was great!Highly recommended. (And I mean look at these fresh lips. The shape is SO GOOD)

Ciafa was so professional!! She did really good on my eyebrows. I love that she was thorough with my eyebrows and had me check to see if I was satisfy with my eyebrows! I love them and I can wait to see results after this process!! I would recommend her to anyone who’s had doubt about getting their eyebrows done!! Keep slaying CIAFA!!

I met with Rachel yesterday for my very first microblading ever. Let me tell you all...she is amazing! She was friendly and professional. She listened thoroughly to me and completely personalized the experience. She was easy to talk to and did great work! I cant wait until the healing is over and I can see the final result. If you are on the fence or looking for a great artist I definitely recommend this location and Rachel.

I scheduled a brow lamination appointment on a whim, and Im glad I did. In less than an hour, Elizabeth took my brows from sparse to spectacular. I was so surprised with the results, I had no idea my brows had that much potential! I cant wait for my next appointment.

Review №12

I had my brows laminated and tinted and unfortunately, it felt overpriced ($125 plus tip) for what I got for two reasons. First, my eyebrows were tinted different colors. And second, they didn’t wax or thread my eyebrows to shape them, they use a face razor, so my brows became misshapen again in just days. Once the color evened out and I went to my regular lady for threading, they looked really amazing. I’m just bummed it took extra work, time, and money to get them to look like what I expected from the beginning.

I am beyond thrilled with my microblading experience. Erica was fantastic, the entire staff was friendly and professional, the studio was clean and comfortable. Parking is a little difficult but believe me going to Studio Meraki is worth it! My brows look amazing! I left feeling so impressed and excited. Ive already referred a friend.

Chloe was absolutely incredible and I am over the moon with her work. She is so great at what she does and is incredibly adept at natural and flattering brows. The studio itself is beautiful and I really appreciated all the communication I had with their staff and they answered all of my questions thoroughly. Can’t recommend Chloe enough!

Hayley is AMAZING! So patient and knowledgeable. I was nervous at the 1st appointment so we opted to go lighter and thinner than she recommended. When I came back for my touch-up, I totally apologized for not listening to her to begin with. I ended up going with the color and width she originally mapped out for me. I LOVE my brows!!! Thank you Haley!

I recently had the first appointment of Ombre brows with Ciafa and am so excited with my results!!!! I have very thick and oily skin that doesnt take /retain the color from micro blading. My brows have finished the peeling process and I still see quite a bit of color so I am really hopefully that I will retain a good amount of color from the Ombre procedure. Bring on my touch up!!!!!! Photos are from day of (7/14), (7/18) and (7/22).@browsbyciafa@studiomerakipdx

Warning! May make your teeth more yellow!! My sister and I did a whitening procedure. Our artist Jamie was so sweet. We followed all the guidelines beforehand and even paid extra for the sealant at the end. We continued to do as we were told the rest of the day. However our teeth now (two months later) are much more yellow than what we started with!! Very disappointing.

I had Rachel for my eyebrow micro blading and I couldn’t be more happy with the result of my brows! She is the sweetest most caring human ever. She truly takes the time to get your brows EXACTLY how YOU want them! I just had my final touch up and I’m just blown away with her talent. I HIGHLY recommend Rachel!

This was such a wonderful experience. Kourtenie did beautiful work on my lip blushing. She was thorough, and gentle. She had me relaxed and enjoying the process. It’s 4 days later and my lips look and feel wonderful. I would highly recommend Kourtenie for anyone looking into lip blushing ❤️

*Im using my husbands google acct* Erica did my eyebrows yesterday and they look amazing!!! This was my first microblading experience. Erica was professional, friendly and patient. Immediately after my appointment, I went to Clackamas Promenade and Town Center where I received compliments on my eyebrows!! This was less than an hour after I left Studio Meraki!! Thank you so much Erica!!!!

Studio Meraki is the absolute best of the best. I’ve been going to them since they opened and have always had the most incredible experiences there. Erica (owner/micro blade) is an absolute artist at what she does and Lina (who does lip tattoos and areola restoration) is the sweetest soul you’ll ever meet. Both of them are the very best in the business and if you’re looking for semi-permanent makeup of any kind, look no further.

1,000% satisfied!I hesitated for a long time because it’s a big investment and it’s my face, not something you can hide if it goes wrong.If you are in the market and on the fence, call now! Run, don’t wait. Erika is AMAZING! Her work is extraordinary.I had drawn on my brows everyday for almost 20 years, 1 pencil every three weeks. There were no, no make up days for me. Finally taking this step has given me that freedom back. Maybe that’s silly to some but it means so much to me!I told Erika at my touch up, she is stuck with me for life! Her response: we are family now! Indeed we are!

I went online to look for a place that i could get my first tooth gem and came across studio meraki. I ended up getting the teeth whitening service and a tooth gem. Very good deal and a great first experience. Looking forward to coming back for my second teeth whitening and another tooth gem in the future. The employee who whitened my teeth and gave me a tooth gem was amazing, really enjoyed meeting her :)

Review №29

One of my biggest frustrations with Portland since I have moved here has been mediocre customer service and disregard for timeliness. You will NOT find that here. They were prompt and they were friendly and above all THEY DO FANTASTIC WORK! I had the most pleasant experience when I got my eyebrows done. So much so that I remember one of the ladies coming into my session to see what was going on because she thought Erica (who did my eyebrows) and I were old friends. Not only was my experience great but so were the results afterwards. You Cant tell me Im not a King, and Icon, and the moment after seeing these brows. Now come on now.

Review №34

I am so upset at myself for spending so much money here. Definitely not worth it at all. I’m in the beauty industry myself and have never blinked an eye for dropping money on any beauty service. I feel like I waited so long and had such high expectations, especially since I was having Erica, a “Master” micro blading artist do my eyebrows. When I went back for my touch up and she asked what I thought I told her the truth about how I felt about them, I don’t think she appreciated this and was probably used to everyone lying to her to not hurt her feelings, but I did tell her in the most respectful/tactful way. She tried telling me that I had oily skin and it was the reason for the ink to “disappear.” I let her believe that pile of bs she tried to serve but I’m a licensed Esthetician and I know better about my skin, the problem was she didn’t even bothered to blade through the entire brow which is why I had missing parts. The next issue was the color, my eyebrows are starting to turn blue. My hair is dark brown. How was that color matched? Either way highly disappointed and now I have to keep drawing them in and over them to cover up the horrible job she did. My best friend went somewhere else, she was cheaper and got them done so beautiful.

Erica made me feel at ease with every step of the Microblading process. She perfectly created a beautiful shape on the first attempt & once finished, the color & overall look was amazing! -everything I’d hoped they’d be!

Studio Metals is amazing! Hayley has literally changed my life with my new eyebrows. I have gone from 10 years of attempting to draw them in, spending 1000s$ and endless time drawing them.

Lina and her team are kind and professional. Not only did Lina’s skills go above and beyond, she is funny, kind and a joy to get tattooed by. I wouldn’t trust my face with just anyone, any you shouldn’t either! Book now with Studio Meraki, their schedule seems to fill up fast and book out far. So worth the wait! I couldn’t be happier.

This studio is top notch! So kind and welcoming! Rachel did my mircoblading and I’m absolutely in love with my new brows! She took her time and made sure I was happy with how they were coming out every step of the way. She explained everything fully and answered all my questions! She also took the time to get to know me and really showed she cared about you, which made for an excellent experience! I’m excited to go see her again for my touch up in a few weeks :) great job ladies!!! ❤️

Review №43

Lina was absolutely incredible! She took all the time we needed to talk to me about my color, what shade is a good fit for me, and what was possible/what wasnt possible.She did not rush me or anything and gave me very very clear expectations for what the whole process would be like both during and after. I didnt take to the numbing, and she was patient to give me breaks I between shading to make sure I wasnt in too much pain or anything like that.You can tell just by talking to her that shes Incredibly passionate and knowledgable about what she does, and it shows in her work and how she treats all of her clients. She hyped me up the whole time and made me feel super confident in not just my lips but just in general. I love the energy and the vibe she puts out, its so calming and she just makes the whole experience so fun and comfortable.Im sooo excited for my touchup and to keep going back year after year, because theres noooo way I am going back to un-blushed lips! I am so happy with how everything turned out. If youre hesitating at all, STOP. JUST DO IT!

What an amazing experience with Haley! She is professional, knowledgeable, creative, and an expert in creating the perfect brow for each individual she comes across. She is meticulous and takes her time making sure you are satisfied with the pre-draw of your brow and once you are ready she begins your eyebrow transformation! She takes her time, explains each step, and has a calming demeanor. Love this place!

Rachel Strong did my eyebrows and I LOVE them! I thought about it for years and was so worried I would look weird. I’m naturally fair skinned with sparse and light (okay see through) eyebrows. What a difference having eyebrows can do for a face! Highly recommend her!! They look natural, even, and now I have a face! Stop thinking about it and just do it!Side note: the healing process does make them fairly dark on day 2 and 3. Don’t worry, they will lighten. 😎

Everyone Ive come in contact with at Studio Meraki are great! They are professional, sweet and amazing at what they do.*Kourtenie* did my lip blush and she is so great.

Chloe did SUCH AN AMAZING JOB on my brows. She is an absolute QUEEN at what she does. She listens to your ideas and then puts her skills to work once you both agree on the initial draw. She is warm and welcoming, personable, and knows her stuff. She is a perfectionist, so you can rest easy knowing you won’t be leaving unless she’s extremely happy with them. I can’t say enough good things about Chloe. For anyone looking to do microblading, she’s your girl. The studio is super clean and the design and atmosphere really add to the experience. 10/10 highly recommend!

Review №54

I had my lips done with Lina and Camille the girl she was training. Immediately I noticed how clean the studio was and while waiting I saw them wipe down surfaces multiple times. It was also very pretty inside. Before anything happened she gave me step-by-step of what would happen through the appointment. I was very comfortable with Camille ( in training) And Lina approved of every step before anything got done. I brought in a lipstick that I liked along with some pictures and Lina was able to color match it perfectly. Everyone I spoke to was very friendly and nice. The pain was minimal out of a scale 1 to 10 the worst was about a 3 and that was for a very short time.

I had the pleasure of having Lina, one of the owners of Studio Meraki, as my artist.After having a bilateral mastectomy and reconstruction at 23 years old I started my search for experienced tattoo artists that specialized in Areola Restoration. In Lina, I found everything I had been looking for and more! She is a great conversation, professional, probably one of the sweetest ladies I’ve ever met, down to earth and she’s an expert at what she does! Thank you again Lina for boosting my self esteem again and assisting me in my journey to find normalcy again. ❤️

I love my new eyebrows! ❤ I found Studio Meraki when I was searching for eyebrows microblading on Google. I checked out pictures of Ericas work and this is what I was looking for!I have to admit that I was little scared before I signed up! I had done microblading in the past, but this is a big change on your face! There was so many what ifs !?After some time I decided to make a phone call and set up an appointment. I fully trusted Erica with the shape and color of my new eyebrows, and Im so thankful that she is such a great professional! My eyebrows look great, color is cool (I was worried I would have an ugly warm brown color 😂). My eyebrows look so natural and I have already forgotten how I looked without them. Thank you so much Erica! ❤

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! The whole staff makes your feel welcomed and cared the whole time. Everyone is taking the extra steps to make sure everyone is staying safe. The waiting area is spotless and was very clean and I felt safe the whole time with everyone wearing mask and practicing social distancing. On top on 5 star treatment, Erica is magician! She made me so more confident with my new eyebrows, specially being blonde I’ve never had brows before and now I’m like a new women! Seriously will be returning again and again! If you are in need of something they offer.. CHOOSE THIS PLACE!! It is worth the money!**OKAY! I have to once again Express how amazing the studio is! I went back to get my lips tattooed by the amazing Lina and let me tell you something. I’ve have never felt more confidence. Seriously, her hand is so light it didn’t even feel like a tattoo. She was so sweet and explains everything she does before she does it. She makes sure you understand everything that is going on.SERIOUSLY! Once again! If you are wanting to get you lips, brows, teeth whiting, lashes.. you name it.. IT IS WORTH THE MONEY because you are getting Quality service! You will be so happy and will just love it!

Review №69

I have been interested in the velvet lip blush tattoo for a while and I have been following Lina’s Instagram for a couple months. I saw Lina posted a model call for lips and I immediately jumped on it. The service was going to be done under Lina’s supervision with Kourtenie, a tattoo artist training to do lips. Lina assured me throughout the entire appointment and she was watching Kourtenie very closely. I put my complete trust in Lina just telling her what I liked and she ran with it. I have literally 0 complaints - my experience was wonderful. The pain involved was very moderate - light burning when the numbing is applied but it goes away in seconds, and the tattoo itself isn’t painful at all. It’s numbed well and repeatedly throughout the appt. Lina is a practiced perfectionist and I have no doubt that Kourtenie will be the exact same way when she’s done training! This was an instant confidence boost for me. Go get your lips done!!!

I booked an appointment with Rachael at Studio Meraki to have my eyebrows micro-bladed. I have never had anything like this done before so I was a bit nervous about the end result. I cannot express how happy I am with my brows and the pain-free process. Rachael took her time, explained the process, showed me different colors and examples. She was an absolute dream to work with!

Lina is truly such an amazing artist. I got lip blushing done with her and couldn’t be any happier to recommend her. Although it is expensive, if you consider the quality and the fact that a touch up is included it is 100% worth the price. I felt minimal pain during the appointment and my lips did not swell much. I am just at the end of the healing process in which your lips peel and it honestly was not too bad. I used the balm given by Lina and you couldn’t really even notice the peeling unless you were looking in your 5x makeup mirror! I recommend following Lina on Instagram, since she posts tons of pictures and helping info about the process. I can’t wait for my follow up!

I had been considering lip injections for forever when someone told me about lip blushing & the amazing Lina. I researched the process & stalked Lina before I decided to go this route instead. I am so grateful I did! The studio itself is relaxing & spotless, the staff are friendly & talented. Lina is such a sweet & funny soul with crazy talent. She explained the process in depth & made the whole thing easy. I love my lip shape being defined, it makes them appear a little bigger without costly injections every few months & the color that is always there with no need to wear anything is by far the best investment in myself I have made. Cant wait to go back for my brows here! Id trust this whole team with your beauty needs ❤

I just had a service done at Studio Meraki with Lina. First off, the front desk were so friendly and they seemed to have a great system with the new regulations for the Pandemic (Covid-19) we are currently in. I was highly impressed especially with it just being reopened recently. The service with Lina was amazing. She is so down to earth and makes sure you’re 100% confident with the velvet lip procedure before, during, and after. I lived 2+ hours away so Lina made sure I had everything I needed including a small ice pack for my ride. I definitely would recommend this place to anyone and will be returning for future touch ups.

Lina is absolutely the best! I flew out from Pennsylvania to take the training course on Lip Tinting. The training was fantastic. she is extremely thorough. We did a lot of practice on fake skin and machine work. I felt very confident working on my model. She also goes over the business aspect as far as social media, booking appointments, and systems to keep track of your clients. By far the best training I have had to date!I also booked an appointment to have my lips tinted before I left. She really listens the concerns with your natural lips to give you the lips of your dreams! I am so glad I had mine done. The training and the service are worth every penny!!! Thanks again Lina for everything!

I had a velvet lip appointment with Lina and she is absolutely the best! She’s professional, nice, punctual and very clear. Lina explains everything she’s doing, step by step, I felt very comfortable and my lips look amazing!! The studio is clean, comfortable, inviting, and parking was easy. I highly recommended Studio Meraki!

Rachel microbladed my eyebrows and she was incredible! She made me feel comfortable and the entire process was smooth and relaxed. I am IN LOVE with my new eyebrows and wish I had done this years ago!!! I highly recommend Rachel at Studio Meraki, and I will be back!

I had been eagerly awaiting my lip model appointment for months! I was nervous about being a model and wasn’t quite sure what to expect but Lina made the experience so special. From the moment I came into the studio I was given so much attention and care. Lina talked me through every step before we even got started so I knew exactly what was going to happen. We worked together to fine tune the shape and she mixed the perfect color! I am in love with my lips. I feel so special to have had the opportunity to model for her trainee and to have these beautiful lips as her work of art. She is amazing! If you have been thinking about getting velvet lips - don’t wait another minute!

I always love my experience at Studio Meraki. I get my lips done by Lina and brows done by Erica. Ive been back already for my annual touchups which are always easy to schedule to ensure my color and their work look 100%! They are both so talented and thoughtful with their work. The customer service is great and as a mom to a toddler I love the appointment reminders!

I wish I could give Studio Meraki 6 stars! I had such an amazing experience getting my brows micro bladed recently. I had spent months doing research but always came back to them being the top of the list in terms of quality, consistency, and pricing. While the cost seemed a little higher than other studios, it *includes* the touchup which balanced out with other studios in the area.I opted to have Rachel do my brows because her work looked aligned to how I usually wore my brows.On the day of my first session I was nervous but Rachels cool, calming personality put me at ease right away. By the end of the session I had some amazing brows and a clear understanding of how to care for them. Over the next two weeks I didnt experience very much flaking or dryness around my brows, which I appreciated. They actually looked pretty amazing leading up to my touchup appointment.My touchup was quick and easy, which I appreciated.Overall, this was such a positive experience and couldnt be happier with my brows!

Studio Meraki is the bees knees! All of the ladies there are super sweet and helpful. I had Erica for my microblading service. She truly is so talented! I love my eyebrows, and gets compliments on them daily. Whenever anybody asks about microblading I tell them to go to the best. “Studio Meraki” I love being able to wake up and not have to fill in my eyebrows anymore. They are natural looking and perfect! Also, if you get Erica for your microblading service she’s also great at recommending new tv shows to binge watch! :)

Lina did a really fantastic job with my lip tattooing. First of all, the website is very thorough about how to prepare for your visit and also for the aftercare. When I arrived, there was a delay because it was right at COVID-19 was starting to impact Oregon and staff took an extra long time completely disinfecting the room we were going to use. Incredibly clean. Lina spent a good amount of time helping me feel comfortable with all aspects of what we were doing - color, shape, cleanliness, preparing me for how it would feel, etc. Also I was very happy with the amount of numbing that was used to reduce the pain. In fact, it wasn’t really all that painful at all. Not what I was expecting. When it was over, my lips looked literally perfect. I couldn’t stop looking at them. BTW if you are trying to figure out what to expect, the videos online of other people’s experiences elsewhere are not helpful or representative of what you will experience. After I left, there wasn’t a time that my lips hurt any more than being badly chapped and I never looked funny from losing layers of skin. Those were my biggest worries and neither happened at all. You could easily go to work and have no one notice that you had anything done except that you will look noticeably better. I would wholeheartedly recommend Lina to any of my friends.

Absolutely LOVE my brows and liner. Haley did an amazing job! She made me feel very comfortable and explained every step. The studio was extremely clean and everyone was very professional. It’s been a few weeks and everything is healed - the convenience of not having to wear makeup is ideal (I should’ve done this sooner). Just attended a wedding with friends from college and got so many complements on my brows :)

Loved everything about it. Erica was super friendly and professional. The studio is clean, hip and the staff are all very friendly. My eyebrows came out perfectly because Erica is a perfectionist which I can really appreciate. I receive compliments on my eyebrows all of the time. Having eyebrows all of the time saves me so much time and I didn’t realize what a difference it can make. Would highly recommend Studio Meraki and Erica for Micro-blading. Love my eyebrows!!
