Kassi Jelks

Kassi Jelks
Coastal Brows & Beauty

After 20 years in the dental field I finally took a leap of faith and made a change. I love dental, but life is short and wanted to have a career that would be flexible for my family.
I began plucking my eyebrows in my early teens and back then “thin was in”, so I know exactly how it feels to spend more time than you have in the mornings just to put eyebrows on. Microblading crossed my path on YouTube when I was trying to learn new techniques with make-up to put these brows together faster.. I was fascinated and decided I would to try something more permanent.
I became obsessed with brows and new techniques/ procedures and began studying different artists on YouTube. I eventually went and had the powder brow procedure done. During that procedure I told my brow technician that I loved what she did for a living and she said “you can do this too”.
After completing my certification(s) and multiple trainings, here I am on this new journey that allows me to help make others feel more beautiful and confident about their brows. I’m excited to work with anyone that books an appointment with me and look forward to shaping these brows together!
