Blink Studio

I just love the gals at Blink Studio! So sweet, so amazing at their craft and always very accommodating.
I cannot say enough about Karla and her awesome brown sugar spray tans! Golden, sun kissed skin every time which get me loads of compliments. Cindy is equally gifted in the lash department! Gorgeous!!! Thank you from the bottom of myladies.

As always ladies. I just left my favorite beauty studio. My lashes are always perfect and my brows as well. Thanks again Cindy for always keeping me gorgeous!!!

Thank goodness I found this amazing studio when I moved to the SouthBay from West LA. Prior to finding Blink, I was driving to Beverly Hills just to get my eyelashes done. I’m so glad that part of my life is over!
I’ve been going to Karla for over a year now and I’m obsessed! She always does an excellent job and the lashes stay on for close to 3 weeks! That’s a long time considering that I’m in a hot yoga studio 5 – 6 times a week. I’m on the silk membership and I always go extra long — trust me I feel naked/​not-​so-​pretty without the lashes. I normally don’t wear make up with lash extensions and once you get them, you’ll see why I say you don’t need make up.
The studio is tucked away in a small office area it looks a little run down on the inside but the studio feels very zen and welcoming. Kayla (an adorable white dog) is always there to greet you and makes everyone feel like family. It’s a relaxed atmosphere and it’s always a pleasant place to spend an hour. Plus: there’s a nice warm bed for you to lay on while you get pampered.

LOVE Blink! Karla and Cindy are amazing and, while I hate giving away hidden gems, it’s just too good not to share. My lashes are now going on 3 weeks and still look amazing. Karla has great attention to detail that always make them look gorgeous, yet natural at the same time. After doing them twice, I’m hooked. Best place on the west side. Hands down!

Love love love this place. Cindy did great. This was my first time here and I got the full set Mink lashes with volume added (additional charge). This place was very clean and inviting. The whole process didn’t take any longer than a hour. My lashes were so sparse from the ragged job the nail shops provide, but Cindy hooked me up. I will be back again.

IM A BLINK ADDICT! I work in fitness and found it really hard to feel «girly» with constant top knots and sweaty clothes. So I decided to go for mink extensions and i haven’t looked back since. Karla is amazing, she’s as fun and enjoyable as she is talented. She really masters her craft and importantly cares about the integrity of your natural lashes. Im the kind of girl thats like MORE MORE MORE– which she always gives me but she is very careful to not hurt my natural in the process and lets me know when we need to scale back on the weight in my natural lash shedding process. I also love that I get a new full set every 3 – 4 weeks for a fill price, the membership deal cannot be beat and it helps to preserve my real lashes.
Karla and Tiffany are always professional and prompt, the studio is clean and they are very accommodating and kind.
I always walk out feeling great, its made a huge difference in my daily routine — and considering how much I sweat daily I cannot believe how well my lashes stay put — they do such an amazing job with application its worth every penny and I love just going there to see the girls :)

Love, love, love. I seriously can’t say enough good things about Blink. The ladies, the atmosphere, the pup. I have been going there for over a year and I absolutely love it. I get my lashes done regularly with Karla and she does such an amazing job. Karla knows exactly what I need and what I like, she really knows how to work her beauty magic. She gives me the natural, but glam look that I want. I’ve gotten a tan there a few times and I come out with the most natural tan and love that it’s sugar based (no chemicals). I also get my wax done by Cindy and she is fantastic. It’s always so much fun in the studio chatting and laughing while I’m getting beautified. I can’t even imagine going anywhere else, these ladies are truly the best at what they do and I can confidently say that they are the best in LA… and the parking is free!

I have already reviewed Blink… But I needed to come back and place another review. I am highly addicted to Blink. Cindy and Karla are amazing… And Tiffany is so sweet!!! Cindy has been doing my lashes for over 4 years!!! I love love this girl and I will always have praises. Cindy will create whatever lash look you desire, whether it’s dramatic, bold, or more natural. AND she also makes my eyebrows look heavenly. I have referred every close friend to Cindy and Karla… And we keep coming back because they truly are the best. My favorite part is, I always leave the studio feeling like a new person.
Thank you Cindy, Karla, and Tiffany.

Updated review: just did my express tan with Karla and brow wax with Cindy.
LOVE the look of the express tan. Absolutely no splotches or orange tones. I tend to steer clear of spray tans but I’m totally hooked on this one. The room was super warm and comfortable as well.
Cindy did a great job on my brows! They had no shape and she gave me shape without taking away fullness. I’ll definitely be going back to her.
Love this place!

I cant say enough good things about this place.
At its core, I continue to come back and back because every time I walk out of the doors I feel more glamorous, and more beautiful than the last time. Karla, the co-​owner of this magical studio, is a gifted beautician who understands the shape of my face and creates an amazing composition of eyelash extensions each and every time. As for tans, Karla wants you to look hot! she gets every corner and makes sure her work is perfect before you leave! The staff wants you to look good, and if it takes an extra 5 minutes on their clock, they do it no questions asked!
I am incredibly welcomed each time by their lovely staff and cute dog! My business is appreciated, and I will continue to go back!

In love with Blink! I just got my brown sugar tan last week, their latest & greatest tan for summer! My boyfriend loved it and I got so many compliments:) I also got my lashes done a few years ago and I’ve been a regular ever since! Extremely thankful to the girls at Blink for keeping me beautiful:) Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

I’ve been wanting to get eyelash extensions for a while so I finally got them. I’m so happy and thrilled with the work Cindy did on my eyelashes. They are weightless. I can’t even feel them I forget I have them on till I look in the mirror. I don’t have to wear mascara anymore which is amazing one less thing I have to do in the morning. She recommended individual silk lashes for a natural look and she was right they look amazing! I’m afraid I’m hooked. I was so pleased with my lashes I made an appt. for a brown sugar tan with Karla and what a great result for summer no streaks nice bronzed even tone love love love this place. Must try!

This is my second set of extensions from Blink Studio. I must say everyone is so personable. My first time getting them done was about a month ago & I was in love with them after they settled with my real lashes. Cindy & I laughed & talked and she was all around amazing. Karla & Tiffany were also very nice. On a scale of 1 – 5 they are a 10. Not only was I satisfied with the service I received but also how Cindy took her time & made sure every lash was placed correct & perfectly. Once they started to fall, they fell gracefully not taking off my real lashes. Overall I am very pleased with the staff & the service. I would definitely recommend and continue to get my extensions done here.

Felt the need to update since I’ve been seeing Karla for my tan for over a year now… Best best tan ever! She’s fast, efficient and a super sweetheart. Prices are so reasonable… Now go get yourself all tanned up!

I feel bad writing this since the girls who work here are super nice but I do feel that they need to work on their lash skills… when I left they LOOKED great however after a couple days it became clear that the lashes were clumped together and not applied how they are supposed to be which is one extension per real lash. Because she attached an extension to multiple real lashes once they started growing out it was painful and itchy and resulted in the loss of many of my real lashes. I’ve attached pictures. This is NOT how extensions are supposed to be applied. I was horrified when they started falling out in clumps. As you can see there’s a spider of real lashes which is such a shame to lose them because of a poor extension job. The other shocking picture is a clump of 8!!! Extensions that were glued together. Completely crazy… I’ve been doing extensions for over 4 years and have never had this issue until coming to this salon. Sorry to say since the girl who did mine was one of the owners… I think perhaps a class on how to property attach them is in order.
Update– WOW! They got Unilocal to remove my pictures. Unreal.

I am so grateful I found Blink Studio! After seeing many friends don beautiful eyelash extensions I couldn’t wait to get some myself. I went to Blink, where they all happily go, and was more than pleased with my experience. I met with Karla who gave me beautiful lashes that feel like I am wearing nothing at all! Karla is also very personal, funny and easy to talk to while she was putting in the extensions. The studio is very clean, friendly and flexible. I am going to book a spray tan with Karla soon, another one of her specialties. I highly recommend anyone looking for eyelash extensions that aren’t overdone but perfectly classy to try Blink!

Cindy is AMAZING! I came in after having my brows messed up by a nail salon lady and after having grown them out for 5 – 6 weeks and I am STOKED at how great they look. Cindy is professional, personable, knowledgable and just all around good at what she does. Now, I can see why all the positive reviews. Cindy is very very skilled at brows — among the best jobs I’ve ever had on my very complicate brows. Impressed. Also, Carla is a sweetie pie, professional, personable and also knowledgable. I’ll definitely be coming back here.
They accept credit cards (I assume all types, as I used Amex when I was there). The parking’s funny. You could either park on the street off of cedar or 21^st or go into their driveway. Here’s how to park in their driveway: go down that funny little drive way immediately to the right of the studio (it looks like you’re going into some kind of low rent real estate office complex) and park there — Carla says it’s okay.
Good luck!

Completely satisfied with both my experiences at Blink Studio which will keep me coming back for more. I was leaving for a trip and I found Blink Studio after conducting a Unilocal search. I knew it was going to be very difficult to get a same day appointment at a reputable place, but lucky me there happened to be a cancellation that day and I was paired with Karla. Karla is wonderful and made me feel very comfortable. She was thorough in explaining to me the special care that is needed for keeping the lashes looking good, which I followed. After a couple of weeks I still had quite a bit of them left on. The space itself is very feminine and cute with three private rooms for various services. I would definitely recommend this place to a friend.

This place is amazing! I was referred to Blink Studio by one of my girlfriends when I complained about having to sit around smelling like rancid, burnt kettle corn for 12 hours every time I went to my old spray tan place on PCH in Hermosa Beach (which shall remain nameless but rhymes with «Fanning Tot». I don’t want to trash the place since everyone was incredibly friendly & nice there, but now I realize how bare bones and ghetto it was).
That said, this place is a class act. Well-​decorated and spa-​like, Karla gives you sticky things to put on the bottom of your feet so they don’t get all crazy orange (like they do when you have to walk through all the wet tanning liquid at the «Fanning Tot»). Also, she helps you apply the lotion on your hands and feet to make sure your distal extremities don’t get too dark.
The room the spray tan is done in is comfortably warm, so you aren’t freezing and the Express tan I got had very little scent to it. She also dusts you down with baby powder afterward so you aren’t sticky when you go home and dries you off with what reminds me of a giant hair dryer… as opposed to the «Fanning Tot», where you stand on sticky tile, drip drying in a cold room in front of a huge industrial fan, then go home reeking and covered in a syrupy, stinky mess… which you then have to stew in for 12 hours.
Best of all??? You can rinse off Blink Studio’s Express tanner after ONLY THREE HOURS! Holy cow, where’s this place been all my life???
I am incredibly impressed by this place and with Karla. She’s incredibly sweet and you can tell that she really LOVES what she does and she’s incredibly knowledgeable. The differences between Blink Studio vs. my old place, the «Fanning Tot», are like night and day. This will be my go-​to spray tan studio from here on out!

Best eyelashes in all of LA and then some! I can get Vegas Glamourous or no make-​up natural all in 1 place.
I’ve been coming here for a year+ for lashes & occasional tan and wouldn’t go anywhere else! Even when I lived in Malibu, I’d drive the 50+ mile round trip because no one is better! They only use the best products and anwers questions before you need/​know to ask… that’s service!
I’ve received so many compliments — Cindy is the lash genius! They are the sweetest women & I’ve only been treated with the utmost professionalism and care — even after leaving the office for anything. :)
Karla is the custom spray tan extroniaore & also does lashes! I’m naturally tan, but once in a while when I want to get rid of pesky tan lines or just look my best — you not only get the perfect tan but you GLOW and again, everyone definitely notices for the right reasons.
Love Blink Studio! Also FREE private parking lot (LA is low on that). I recommend Blink to all my friends and anyone who asks. No point in going elsewhere — hands down the best!
