EXPERIENCE & ACHIEVEMENTS
CUSTOMER & ILAB
Kelly Irvine 
Hoa is incredible! Her eyelash extensions are always perfect and last much longer than anywhere else I’ve been. I found her when I used to live close by however am still more than happy to drive over half an hour to see her. I will never go anywhere else for my eyelashes!
Amy Lee
Don’t look anywhere else for FLAWLESS lash extensions! I get so many compliments whenever Hoa works her magic on them. I have been to 8 other places and this is BY FAR the best. Not only do they look beautiful and are exactly what I ask for, but they last longer than average and she does them a lot quicker than other places. I 100% recommend!!!
Emily Quach
Hoa is the best lash technician I have ever been to! She takes her time to produce the perfect set of lashes that last a long time. She is super professional and located in a very clean and welcoming space. Would highly recommend to anyone looking! I have never been happier with my lashes thank you!!
Ann McDermott
I had my eyebrows feathered & tattooed. It looks amazing. So natural. Hoa worked hard to get my eyebrows perfect.
Olga Ford
I had combination eyebrows done by Hoa. Am very pleased with the result, she was attentive, precise and made sure I was happy with all aspects of shape and colour as she went along. My eyebrows healed well after both the initial consultation and the second perfecting session. Thanks Hoa!
Maisey Davidson
I have been going to Hoa for my lash extensions for about 12 months now. She is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend her professionalism!! I had tried many different lash places and never left feeling happy… each time I leave iLab, I always feel 100% with my lashes, waxing and brows. She takes her time and ensures to deliver a quality service. Last week I also had my brows ombré tattooed and I’m in love! I’m extremely happy that I found Hoa and her lovely little business. I couldn’t recommend her more
Michele Green
Hoa was so lovely and gentle during my eye brow tattoo and feathering procedure. Hoa was thorough and highly meticulous in her work and her attention to detail was amazing. I really thought the procedure was going to be painful, but because of Hoa’s gentle and careful approach, it wasn’t. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs their eye brows done. Im pretty confident though that Hoa could turn her hand to any beauty treatment and do well. She is a true professional and an amazing artist. I recieved lovely comments about my brows almost straight away from my friends. I will be back. Kind regards Michele
Aline Nguyen
Hoa is absolutely amazing and genuinely such a lovely person! I’ve had my brows done twice by her and I’m never disappointed. She is a true perfectionist when it comes to brows and that is exactly what you need in a brow artist. She listens attentively to what you want and works with your opinion to get the best results for your face. I had a combination of feathering and ombre shading. I am so happy with them, I don’t have to worry about filling in my brows everyday. If you’re looking for a brow tattooist in Melbourne, Hoa is your girl!
Leah Loh
I have been going to Hoa for my eyelash extensions and she has been consistently amazing. She takes the time to make sure she does a great job so I’m always happy with the results when I leave her salon. She listens to what I want to do (which is usually more more more volume) but will always let me know if she thinks they will wreck my eyelashes. So far they’ve remained healthy and great! I can’t recommend her highly enough.
Christine Tran
I got my eyebrows and eyeliner tattoo done by Hoa at Into Lashes and Brows and I am so so so happy with them. I was extremely impressed by Hoa’s level of professionalism and her attention to detail was just amazing. She spent so long perfecting my eyebrows and making sure I was satisfied with it before beginning the tattooing process, which I really appreciated. She is extremely passionate about her work and ensures that every one of her client’s result is of the best quality! She is highly skilled and knowledgeable and I’m so glad I found her! I would highly recommend her to anyone who’s thinking of taking that big step of getting cosmetic tattoo to go to ILAB! Thanks so much Hoa!

Carla Merlo
I went in to ILAB on a recommendation from a friend, I can be very particular but this time I had no idea what I wanted and was feeling a bit nervous! Hoa took her time to measure and create the perfect brow shape for me, she was very thorough and such a perfectionist, something that was very very much appreciated! I wanted a natural looking brow and that’s exactly what I got. My partner was shocked and thought it was real hair and I have received so many compliments. I suffer from restless leg syndrome so it was difficult to keep still for the 3hour duration but Hoa was so patient with me! Thank you again, I love my new brows and feel like a new women!
Nicola Bonin
My brows look amazing. After having my brows feather micro bladed several years ago the colour had faded and the shape was wrong. Hoa did an amazing job at fixing them, she made the colour much more natural and darker and the shape is perfect. Probably because she is such a perfectionist and continued with the treatment until every stroke was exactly how I wanted it. She is the absolute best I’ve been getting my lashes done with her for years and now my brows are perfect too! I get a compliment a day they’re that good.
laura tillotson
Hoa is patient, kind, precise and such a professional. She takes the time to listen to you as the client, give her opinion and deliver exactly what she says she will. I have had both eyelash extensions and more recently, microblading on my eyebrows and I have never felt more confident. Hoa was able to stay true to my natural brow and transform them at the same time. I have never felt this good about my brows and have received so many compliments already. Thank you Hoa!
Lisa Vanderbaan
Hoa is amazing so glad I found her. She is gentle and takes time perfecting brows and lashes. I am so happy with my lashes and brows.

Morgan Scholes
I travelled 3.5 hours to have my eyebrows tattooed by Hoa after seeing her work on Instagram. It was 1000% worth the trip. My eyebrows turned out even better than what I imagined. I honestly nearly cried happy tears when I saw them! Hoa is an absolute perfectionist which made me feel so comfortable throughout the session. With the relaxing music and and smell of oils I almost fell asleep twice she was that gentle. I highly recommend this place if you want the eyebrows of your dreams.
Bianca Paine
I’ve been seeing Hoa at iLAB for eyelash extensions for over four years, and I will never go anywhere else. Hoa is incredibly talented, an absolute perfectionist who is constantly furthering her own upskill and development. Today we finally made it to my brows appointment (which was delayed due to Covid-19), and I was so impressed. I was a little nervous that the process might be painful, but it was honestly fine- if you can handle a wax, you can handle this! Hoa spent at least an hour getting the brow shape perfect before even starting the microblading. I’m absolutely thrilled with the result- before and after pics attached for reference. If you’re looking for someone to help with lash extensions or cosmetic tattooing in Melbourne, please give the iLAB Instagram a look (Hoa’s talent speaks for itself and the pictures tell a thousand words). I cannot provide a higher recommendation for Into Lashes And Brows.
Vanee Pham
I Highly recommended this amazing place, professional, clean and highly experienced. It took me 2 years to find the right place to finally get my brows microbladed and shaded , Hoa was amazing to deal with from day one , she took the time to take me through the steps thoroughly and is very reassuring, she is a prefectionist and did not stop until she achieved the prefect brows for me , I was very impressed with how comprehensive she is and how she takes her time to prefect every strokes on my brows ensuring I was comfortable and at ease and more importantly consult me at every steps if of the way. Thank you Hoa for my amazing brows I am so happy with it and cannot thank you enough for your amazing work. Cheers Vanee xx
Natassja Lindrea
I researched a lot of cosmetic tattoo artists in Melbourne and even though some had been in the industry for a long time I noticed that the placement of the ink was not always best done for the particular features. Into lashes an brows differed here and i felt that it was the most important aspect. You’re not just putting ink on someones face, you have to be specific in the shapes and lines to match that persons face. You have to be an artist and thats why I chose them. She picked a beautiful colour that matched my olive skin and the lines of my lips made them look pouty and lush!
Karina Sisouk
I’ve seen hoa for two years now. She’s the only lash technician I go to for my lashes and won’t go to anyone else. She’s the best of the best and everyone always compliments my lashes. I even just go to see her all the way from Albury to get them done because of how good she is! Highly recommend her and she’s always so kind, flexible and easy going
Yanqi zhang
I have to say the artist is amazing, super patient and super professional! As an Asian eye, I’ve got 100% eyeliner I want eventually, and thanks hoa for lighting up my day! And during the whole procedure, it’s not painful at all, can’t wait to do my touchup again!
YenPhin Choo
Hua is very professional and meticulous with her work. She is also very flexible and accommodating with her times. You can be assured of top quality and satisfaction when you walk out of her salon. I totally recommend Hua to anyone interested in her services.
Amanda Taing
Highly recommend microblading and eyelash extension service that Hoa provides at ILab. My eyelash extensions always turn out beautiful and the retention is amazing! Hoa is very professional at what she does and her passion is demonstrated through her effort to provide perfection. I had the pleasure of having Hoa fix my brows that i was very self conscious about for years. Hoa’s microblading/ brow tattoo work on my brows is absolutely amazing and they look so natural even after 1 year they still look perfect, I’ve had so much compliments! I am extremely happy with the final results and the services, i definetly would recommend her especially for people who are looking for an artist in melbourne!

I highly recommend ILAB to all ladies who would like their facial beauty needs to be looked after professionally and at the best quality. Had my lashes done at many different places before but was never happy until I found ILAB. Haven’t gone elsewhere ever since! Hoa is super talented and professional and most of all very gentle and nice. I’ve had more than just lash extensions done by her (and still a monthly client) and haven’t been disappointed. I’m sure you will love her and her works.
