Provided by YP.comI am so impressed with Edda for many reasons, I went in to have my upper eye liner and eyebrows done yesterday and couldn't be happier with the results.
She is the makeup whisperer. What I mean is that I explained what I wanted in words, feeling really nervous we'd have a hard time getting to a point where she truly understood what I wanted and trusted she'd deliver. However, immediately she pointed to a picture of eye liner and asked me if that's what I wanted. Yes! It was exactly what I wanted.
Next came the eyebrows. Now I have hair already and just need a bit of definition. I'm a natural type of girl and don't like to look made up unless it's quite intentional. So when she gave me a mirror to look at the brows she drew, I was floored. It looked so natural and yet, so perfectly drawn. I can never draw my brows like that! I made a minor modification and she shared her opinion and why she wouldn't make that change, but ultimately made me feel comfortable that my decision was what she would implement.
I spent a lot of time driving home trying to put into words why it's so hard to choose a person to do permanent makeup for you. I came up with the word "Trust". You are putting your trust in a person to listen and understand your wishes, be able to remain objective and ultimately have the talent and artistry to deliver. Edda has all of these qualities and more.
I will rave about her to anyone who will listen (and have already sent all of my friends a picture of her work).
Here is the process for those who may want a step by step of what to expect:
1) Fill out paperwork and review any risks and discuss what you want done.
2) Edda will review her equipment and the sterile practices she has. She'll open the needles for the procedure in front of you.
3) For eye liner she didn't need to draw it on first because we agreed on a clear photo.
a) cleanse the eye.
b) exfoliate the eye: This isn't comfortable. She is scraping at the tender skin on your eyes. But it's very bearable and it's over quickly.
c) Apply lidocaine to lid to numb it.
d) Use the needle with color to mark the lid so she knows where to apply color after full numbing is completed.
e) Use the needle to open up the pores so that lidocaine can be applied again for further numbing. This will cause minor swelling which is why she needs to mark the lid with color prior.
f) apply the color. The hardest part of this is that you must relax your eyelid and it's truly a mind over matter. Edda will continuously talk to you letting you know when you are tensing or fluttering the lid. This wasn't comfortable but it was only painful in spots and it was very bearable. This is also where trust comes into play because it feels odd to have a needle that close to your eyeball.
g) at some point during the procedure she will stop and ask you to look. Your eyes will be puffy but you'll be able to tell if she's on the right track. She was with me so she kept going.
4) for eyebrows she drew it first and then we talked through a minor tweak. She had me get up and look in a mirror and she looked at me from far away to study whether it looked right. She made sure there was agreement and I was completely comfortable before we kept going.
The eyebrows aren't painful at all but they may make you sneeze and your nose may run a bit. Mine did. Once again she stopped to get my feedback a few times.
After she gave me a little care package with instructions and a hug. So sweet. I'll see her again in a few weeks to get any touchups and can't wait to see the final result (I will post here if I can figure it out).

Provided by YP.comI highly recommend Edda Garcia if you are interested in trying Permanent Make-up. Her clinic / office is sterile and professional and the results are amazing. I had my eyeliner done 5 yrs ago and it still looks awesome; I just had a touch-up on the lower line today, which I prefer to be very thin. And I had my eyebrows done today also after a thoughtful consultation with Edda. She is the best; you can't go wrong !

Provided by YP.comOn Saturday, June 21, 2014, I had a life changing experience when I became a client at Permanent Make-Up by Edda in Avon, MA..
I met Edda while visiting my son's fitness studio, Real Results Fitness Studio. Edda practices her permanent make up artistry right next door!
On the very same block, I discovered my own Real Results with Edda that day. Results I never dreamed were possible. I had a dream. A dream for eyebrows.
I recently read that my own sparse eyebrows would soon thin more and fade away as I aged. OMG. No eyebrows?! This wasn't something this baby boomer was going to take lightly.
I asked for eyebrows in my dreams but I never dreamed there was a person like Edda!
So talented. So sincerely interested. So passionate about what she does...so conscientious and professional. She was my "eyebrow angel"! The one I prayed for was now standing right in front of me! LOL
I was under "her wing" you could say and I felt safe and confident about the procedure that would change my life! You have no idea! Wow!
Edda was also very accommodating. I realized quite suddenly that I would also benefit from permanent eye liner as well. I have Graves Disease and suffer with dry eyes which means a lot of tearing, not so good for the eyeliner I would have just applied.
So, I was going to soon have my new eyebrows and eyeliner on the same afternoon!
Just 3 hours later, I looked in the mirror and my dream of looking healthy and polished as a mature aging woman cracks the mirror (sorry, Edda, I will see about a new mirror)! " Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the most beautiful baby boomer of all? " LOL
That mirror cracked from the image of two beautiful teal green eyes outlined by skillfully applied permanent black eye liner. My eyes popped out from under those very well sculpted eyebrows! I thought I was looking at a movie star on television.
Be sure to discover these best kept secrets for yourself and or your friends. The skill and permanence of these services demand the very best professional.
I found her and now you can, too.
P.S. Edda also offered me a 10% discount on the spot. Love it.

Provided by YP.comI just had my eyebrows done a couple of weeks ago and Edda did an amazing job. I've been doing my research on feathered tattoo eyebrows and she is the only person I found with several years of experience. I have very sparse eyebrows and she made them look natural to my face shape and hair color. Not only is she a perfectionist and takes her time but the location is very clean and comfortable. My family and friends love how my eyebrows look and want to get work done by Edda too. I highly recommend Edda Garcia if you're looking to get your eyebrows done.

Provided by YPmobileEdda is an expert at eyebrows! She uses precise measuring tools to achieve perfect arches and curves not to mention her expert eye for color and symmetry. I would highly recommend her! And if your concerned about pain...you can ask for numbing cream...but her touch is so gentle... You likely won't even feel it!

Provided by YP.comI just had my eyebrows done by Edda & She is a miracle worker! I had very thin, damaged eyebrows that were very asymmetrical. Now I have thick, natural looking eyebrows now that I want to show off. She shaped them perfectly for my bone structure and matched the color to my hair. She is extremely professional. She also honored the 10% discount which was just a bonus. These eyebrows were worth every penny! Thank you Edda!

Provided by YPmobileI highly recommend Edda Garcia for permanent eyebrows! I have very thin blonde eyebrows and I was searching online for permanent hair stroke style eyebrows so they would look natural. I called Edda Garcia in Avon after reading many many great reviews. She answered my call herself, scheduled my appointment right away. I met her today and she was very professional. Her office has a medical feel to it, sterile and clean. She was personable and understanding. She listened to all of my concerns and preferences about how I wanted my eyebrows to look. The procedure was virtually painless and she kept checking with me to make sure that I liked how they looked and told me that we were working together on this. My eyebrows are beautiful now!!!! I left so happy now I never have to draw them on again!!! She was great. Go see her if you want beautiful eyebrows.

Provided by YP.comI had my permanent eyebrows originally done 7 years ago, and have been looking for a great and experienced permanent makeup artist for a retouch of my eyebrows. I searched online and found Edda Garcia, a permanent make-up artist, who had several great reviews from Yelp, all of which were very promising.
After reading all the testimonials and viewing all the pictures, I felt quite confident of Edda Garcia’s skills. Upon our meeting, she was not only professional, but also amiable and made us feel comfortable as soon as we entered her salon. Edda explained the before and after of the procedure in a clear and understandable manner, making me even more confident of her skills and overall knowledge. Her salon is very clean, organized and has a calm atmosphere. She made it a point to consistently ask and make sure that I felt comfortable and had no pain during the duration of the procedure.
I highly recommend Edda Garcia as a professional permanent makeup artist. Edda Garcia’s website lists all her professional profiles, education, training, and years of experience. You can also view her gallery, which showcases samples of her work. I am very thankful that I found Edda Garcia and extremely happy with the result of my permanent eyebrows, which looks perfectly natural.

Provided by YP.comI just got my eyebrows done by Edda! I was nervous and afraid of disastrous was having cold feet prior to the procedure but I kept on reading and rereading all the positive reviews and persuaded myself to show up for my appointment. I couldn’t be happier after my procedure!!! Edda was welcoming and her gentle tone of voice was enough to alleviate my anxiety. Her facility was very clean and well maintained. She covered up in a gown, cap, mask and gloves. She answered all my questions. She explained the procedure to me and asked if I wanted to draw in the shape of the eyebrows myself which I prefer she do it. She reassured me that we work together as a team to achieve the end result. She allowed me all the time I need to check out my brows and she worked with me until I am satisfied! She even gave me a hand held mirror so that I can see what she is doing. I am glad I had the simulating hair stroke procedure done! My brows came out looking darker, fuller and so NATURAL! I love it! I can’t stop checking myself out. When I got home, none of my family members noticed which was AWESOME! Thanks for my beautiful brows! I highly recommend EDDA GARCIA! I look forward to my follow up appointment.
On 7/26/13, I came for my follow up with Edda. I was well received by her. She was courteous and professional. She touched up on my brows and I can now say they are PERFECT! I eventually be going back to have something else done. Thanks Edda!

Provided by YP.comI have to give Edda a five star, she does an excellent job in doing my permanet make-up. I can't thank her enough for the compliments I got, she made me look 15 years younger. If you are considering eyebrow and liner, don't look further, she does a wonderful job.

Provided by YP.comOn September 6th, I had the pleasure of meeting Edda. She was very professional, courteous and answered all of my questions without hesitation to be sure I was comfortable before we did any work. I decided to explore this option because my eyebrows were sparse and uneven. Once I saw my eyebrows stenciled in I was ready to proceed. I'm so glad I followed my gut! My eyebrows are amazing and look totally natural! I appreciate you Edda!

Provided by YP.comI had my upper Eyeliner done by Edda Garcia, at her Avon office, and let me tell you, Edda is wonderful. Her office gives you the confidence that you are walking into a clean and well maintained environment for the type of work she does. At first I was very afraid of the procedure, even though my Mom and sister who had her upper and lower eye liner done by Edda told me that there was nothing to be afraid of.
It took me awhile to make the decision of doing it, but it is one of the best decisions ever!! When I went for my consultation Edda took the time to sit down and explain to me, step by step what she would be doing, what I was going to feel, what the results were going to be and how to take care of my eyes after the procedure. She walked me through her office and I could clearly see that all the equipment is sterilized, no fear of cross contamination because of how clean her office is, which to me is a big deal. I recommend Edda to everyone that is interested in permanent make up, or any other procedures she does. Not only is she great at her work but she is a wonderful person that will treat you with respect and listen to what your desires are.
Don't hesitate to call her if you are thinking of having some sort of permanent make up procedure done! You won't regret it!!!!
