Zara is AMAZING! Definitely one of the best decisions I’ve ever made to get my brows done here. So happy I got my brows done! I was hesitant at first because I didn’t know what to expect. After chatting with the very friendly ladies who picked up the phone I went for it. It’s worth every penny. I didn’t know how to shape my eyebrows and decided to trust the process. Couldn’t be happier, excited to have found such a great place and people that prioritize comfort and quality.

After years of contemplation, I finally got my eyebrows microbladed. A lot of research later led me to getting them done with Zara and all I can say is I wish I would have done this years ago!! She 👏🏻 is 👏🏻exceptional👏🏻. In both her manner and her work. She really takes the time to understand the result you are after and does not rush your sessions. It’s a friendly, positive experience. And the results are insanely beautiful. So natural, the color and shape perfect. The time saved getting ready in the morning 🤌🏻 *chefs kiss*. In years to come, I will be seeking her out for my touch ups! Super happy I got it done

Zara is amazing! I went to Eastside Microblading on a recommendation from a friend and I love my new look! I went in wanting just the lash line enhancement. I wanted to look ready to go first thing in the morning and not look like a blank canvas. At my appointment, Zara listened to what I wanted and kept looking at my eyebrows. When I finished, she said “yes, this will look great on you. we are doing your eyebrows too.” We both had a good laugh and talked it over and I booked for eyebrows too. The difference is night and day! She uses numbing cream and takes her time creating a look that fits your face. If you are thinking about doing this, give Zara a call. You will love your new look!

Zara is the best, best, best! She nano-bladed my girlfriend’s eyebrows and tinted her lips. It is so natural and my girlfriend looks so beautiful. She and I have been recommending Zara to anyone curious about these services. I can’t recommend Zara highly enough. 10 stars!!!!

I had an amazing lip blush experience with Zara! She was knowledgeable, patient, and made me feel comfortable from start to finish. She explained the aftercare clearly and checked in to make sure everything was going well. My lips already look beautiful, and I can’t wait to see the final healed results. Thank you, Zara, for your excellent work. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for lip blush services! Zara is the best. I love her art work!

I'm so happy that I got my eyebrows done by Zara! The end result is definitely worth the small amount of time and aftercare involved. I was worried at first about how thin and patchy my natural eyebrows were and whether the result would look natural. I love how they turned out! They look natural and just completely wonderful. Highly recommend working with Zara.

When I decided to get into the beauty business, inspired by my own Microblading experience as a customer, I did a thorough search for potential trainers and schools. I went through plenty of prospective trainers, but it was Amanda and Beauty Angels that stood out to me. Beyond Amanda's obvious winning personality and positive attitude, the details of the Beauty Angels Academy intrigued me. While a lot of Microblading schools and trainers offered a few days of instruction and then left you to sink or swim, only Amanda and Beauty Angels offered 20 levels of curriculum through online training, which can take up to 6 months, in addition to the live training. At first I was a bit hesitant because I was impatient to get my business up and running and getting certified in a few days seemed pretty enticing! But the more I researched the Beauty Angels training and the more I researched Amanda on Facebook, Google, and Instagram (my inner spy... or stalker!), I became more and more convinced that she was the right trainer for me. I read every review she's ever gotten in her life (ok... maybe not!) and that, along with the success of her former students, sealed it for me. And I was not disappointed! Once I attended her Microblading course in March, I knew for sure I had made the right decision. Amanda is so calm and thorough in her explanations. She breaks everything down so that you can absorb it. But she's no pushover and is not going to pass you unless you produce good work. For example, for the very first level of the online training, I had to hand-draw a pair of brows. I submitted my first attempt: rejected. I submitted my second attempt: rejected. I took a deep breath, took Amanda's advice from each rejection to heart and finally passed on my third attempt! I have little doubt that a lot of other trainers wouldn't have been so firm in holding their standards but Amanda will draw the best out of you whether you like it or not! But it wasn't all just criticism. Whenever I submitted work, Amanda would be sure to tell me what I did RIGHT in addition to pointing out where I could do better. It was those bits of praise that helped keep my confidence up when I wasn't sure I could do it. Another great thing about Amanda is that she's always just a text away, as she will respond to any of your questions even on the weekends or when she's on vacation. That's dedication right there! I ended up passing my online training in June and opened up my own Microblading business soon after. Even after I officially graduated the course, Amanda still made herself available to answer questions and has been very helpful with little tidbits of knowledge, like what ink colors/mixes to use on various clients' skin colors or advice on business procedures (which is all new to me! I've never run a business before!). She is a person with a heart of gold and is very geniune about wanting to help others. I know she could make more money just performing Microblading instead of instructing others but she enjoys giving back and helping others make the journey she has made to the top of the mountain. I'm still not there, but I am so happy I have had Amanda guiding me along the way and I know I'll get there one day!

Honestly Amanda is just overall an amazing human being. I took my microblading/shading online/live course with her and I’m so thankful to have found this academy and also for someone like her to be so close to where I live and be able to learn from the best master trainer! She’s so supportive and motivational! I love learning from her so much that I recommended all my friends that are thinking about taking a microblading course to come to her! I’m also going to be returning for 3 more courses and not going anywhere else! She’s the best at what she does whether it’s microblading people or being a master trainer! She knows her stuff and isn’t afraid to share all the information she has learned throughout the years with her students! Thank you being so amazing Amanda! ❤️

I highly recommend the Beauty Angels Advanced Microblading and Shading course from Amanda! My upper strokes were a hot mess before I took the class. She worked with me and gave me great constructive criticism. Now my upper strokes are beautiful. Don’t expect to pass every level with your first submission, listen to the instructions given to you and apply it to future submissions. Amanda is a great instructor and your work will be far superior when you finish compared to when you started.

The founder

Amanda Banks started this as a solo artist.

Almost a decade ago, Amanda founded Eastside as a solo artist in Bellevue, Washington, because everything she saw in the permanent makeup world was bold, in your face, and you noticed it. She wanted the opposite. We want you to get out of the shower in the morning already feeling put together.

Today she is an International Grand Master Permanent Makeup Artist, previous Board Member of the American Academy of Micropigmentation, and the trainer behind every artist who touches a client in either studio. Clients fly in from around the USA for their treatments because they know we are the best at making it look natural. We are so honored to have our thousands of true lifetime clients. Amanda is also a Beauty Angels Academy Grand Master Trainer, International Speaker, and Season 14 winner of TV’s “The Blox”.

Read the founder film transcript

I founded Eastside almost a decade ago as a solo artist in Bellevue, Washington. And I was passionate about one thing, and that is creating permanent makeup results that are so natural that no one would ever ask you if you had it done. And since then, we’ve performed tens of thousands of treatments across both our Bellevue, Washington and our Scottsdale, Arizona studios. And I’ve personally trained thousands of permanent makeup artists worldwide and served on the board of the American Academy of Micropigmentation.

But what really sets us apart here is what we call the Eastside Standard. And this is a level of quality, of safety, precision, care that I believe should be the norm in this industry. And it’s just not. So we decided to set that bar. And every artist here at Eastside has been personally trained by me. We do not do bold. We don’t do obvious. We create natural results that age beautifully over the years and not just months. This is a lifetime relationship.

And our clients, they’re the ones that research the most, who want the best for themselves and who really value natural results and top-level experience. And so if that sounds like you, we’d love to meet you. Get My Brow Recommendation with our team and find out why we’re very different from what else you see out there.

The part nobody shows you

How our brows treatments heal.

Most studios show the day-one photo, when the work looks boldest. We care about month one and year two. That is what we build for. The timeline below shows you what happens next.

Day 1 · the chairDarker and sharper on purpose.

The day you leave the studio, your brows look about 30-40% darker and crisper than the final result. That is by design. We choose pigments and saturation knowing exactly how your skin will soften them, because we are designing for the healed brow, not for the mirror in the studio.

What you do: keep it simple. Follow the aftercare card. No gym sweat, no picking.

Studio macro · real clientStudio macro · real client

Days 4 to 10 · the flakeWhat the flaking phase looks like.

Light flaking, color that looks patchy, a few days where you wonder if it worked at all. Every client gets the same message from us before it happens: this is the week your skin does its job. The pigment is settling underneath while the surface resets. Do not judge anything this week, and do not let anyone touch it.

What you do: keep it dry, keep it clean, text us if anything feels off. We answer.

Day 30 · the settleSoft, settled, yours.

A month in, the color has bloomed back to its true value and the strokes have softened into the skin. This is the brow we designed in your mapping session. At your perfecting visit we refine anything your skin decided to do its own way, because every face heals a little differently, and that is normal.

What you do: come in for the perfecting touch-up. This visit is part of the process and is scheduled and charged separately.

Year 2 · the truthThis is what we actually sell.

Top grade pigments that PASS every European safety standard fade soft and warm with your skin's undertones, never gray, never orange. A brow that ages this way is the whole reason clients fly in from out of state. We recommend easy maintenance appointments every 1–4 years.

What you do: live your life. Get out of the shower and go.

Good questions

Asked all the time,
answered honestly.

What does Eastside Microblading & Beauty do?

We are a permanent makeup and body sculpting studio with locations in Bellevue, Washington and Scottsdale, Arizona. Brows, lips, correction and removal, and FDA-Cleared cryolipolysis body sculpting, all under one standard, founded by Grand Master artist Amanda Banks in 2017.

How do I book an appointment?

Book online or start with a personal recommendation. The qualification call is a screening call, not a sales appointment. We use it to review fit, preferences, and medical contraindications before your visit. A deposit reserves your appointment.

Will my brows look natural?

That is the entire point of this studio. We map your brows with symmetry software, your bone structure, and the ratios of your face, and we design for the healed result, not the day-one photo. After tens of thousands of treatments, natural is what we are known for.

Is cryo body sculpting safe?

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, cryolipolysis uses controlled cooling intended to damage targeted fat cells so the body can clear them over time. The FDA also lists temporary effects and less common serious complications, so candidacy matters. Eastside uses an FDA-Cleared cryo protocol, has performed 10,000+ sessions, and screens every client for contraindications before your visit.

Can you fix microblading I got somewhere else?

Often yes, and we will be honest with you if not. Send us photos of your previous work first. Sometimes we can work over it, sometimes removal is the right first step, and we will walk you through the most cost-effective path to a result you actually feel good about. We will not band-aid a bad result.

Where are your studios?

Bellevue, Washington at 989 112th Ave NE, Suite 203, and Scottsdale, Arizona at 8989 E Via Linda, Suite 107. Both studios run by appointment, and both carry the same Eastside Standard.
