what our clients are saying…

“Marta's skill set, attention to detail + professionalism were beyond my expectations.

And to top that, she has a wonderful spirit! I will definitely be returning to take advantage of her facial services. I would highly recommend her.”

— Jackie Jackson

“I have had the pleasure of seeing Marta for both cosmetic tattooing and facials.

Words can’t describe how well she takes care of her clients. During facials you receive her undivided attention while she pampers you from your scalp to your fingertips. The detail, precision, and artistry of her permanent makeup game is unmatched. Plus, she’s one of the sweetest humans on earth. Cannot recommend her enough.”

— Jennifer Hayes

“Mandi is a knowledgeable, kind, and detailed esthetician.

My skin health needs were heard and properly addressed while still providing a calm and relaxing atmosphere. I rebooked for another service because I know that Mandi and the team at elma are who I trust in the area for my skin's health and healing.”

She does a stellar job every time and I leave feeling so powerful and beautiful thanks to her. I tell all my clients and friends to visit Elma!”
