About Esthetician Chika
I was born and raised in Japan. My mother is a cosmetologist and owns a salon that is attached to her house, so I literally grew up in a salon. Starting in my teenage years, I have been fighting a constant battle with acne, scarring, redness and sensitive skin. It was always a struggle to find proper skin care products.
In 2002, I moved to San Francisco, and had an even more difficult time finding skin care products that would work on my sensitive skin, so I started making my own. I quickly learned that the best skin care products were made of natural ingredients. I especially like to use green tea, as most of the products that worked best for me, back in Japan, contained green tea.
Over the last decade, I went to school and became a Licensed Esthetician and after years of working in spas perfecting my craft, I have now opened my own spa in San Francisco.
I have also been an Eyelash Extensions Artist since 2011. I really enjoy creating custom eyelash designs for each of my clients desires or needs. I can design lashes that really pop out in a dramatic fashion, or simply enhance them in a natural way. I also help those that have lost their lashes from disease, stress or unbalanced hormones. I have one of the largest selection of eyelashes in the Bay Area, and would be happy to help choose which is best for you.
I am certified with both Basic and Advanced training by Lavish Lashes.
