Meet Lily

Founder of California Brow

Welcome to California Brow, where beauty meets precision.

I’m Lily Nguyen, a licensed esthetician and permanent makeup artist with over a decade of experience. Since 2019, I’ve specialized in natural-looking hair-stroke brows and advanced correction techniques. My work is rooted in the belief that brows are more than a beauty trend—they’re the frame of your face and a reflection of your individuality.

Whether you’re here for a subtle enhancement or a complete brow transformation, I approach every client as a unique canvas. My goal is to deliver results that are balanced, flattering, and tailored to your features—not cookie-cutter.

At California Brow, you can expect artistry backed by skill, and a calm, luxurious experience from start to finish. I look forward to helping you elevate your natural beauty.
