    Paula was great. I did a makeup trial with her at Fresh Hair in Jamaica Plain, then she came to my hotel before the wedding. I don't usually wear makeup and I was a little nervous because I felt like my makeup was a little heavy after the trial. She was flexible and went lighter on the foundation for the wedding. She did a great job with the eyes. Overall she made me feel very comfortable and I'd definitely recommend her again!

    Paula is the best.it was my first time getting my eyebrows done outside of my normal person and i do admit i was a little nervous.Paula helped me feel comfortable. she did my eyebrows so good that i now go to her on the regular.I have particular eyebrows so if someone gets them right the first time they know what they are doing. She also does facials and waxing. She is a Boston Treat. I advise you to check her out.
