Meet Jada Villanueba — Orlando's Brow & PMU Artist | Orlando Brow Studio

When you book an appointment at Orlando Brow Studio, you're not booking a salon slot — you're booking a one-on-one session with Jada Villanueba herself. Founder, lead artist, licensed esthetician, certified microblading artist, tattoo-licensed permanent makeup specialist, and 3x Barbicide Certified professional. Every client who sits in Jada's chair gets her full attention, her full skill set, and brows designed specifically for their face. Here's the full picture of who she is and how she got here.

A Natural Artist From the Start

Before Jada ever picked up a microblade, she was an artist. She paints portraits — detailed, expressive work that requires a trained eye for facial structure, proportion, light, shadow, and the way small details change the entire feeling of a face. That background didn't stay in her sketchbooks. It transferred directly into every aspect of her brow work.

Brow mapping — the process of measuring and designing the perfect brow shape for each client's face — is something many artists learn as a technical skill. For Jada, it's second nature. She sees faces the way a portrait painter does: understanding how the arch of a brow changes the perceived shape of the eyes, how the tail placement affects the entire balance of the face, how a fraction of a millimeter can make the difference between a result that looks "done" and one that looks like you were simply born with great brows.

That same painter's eye extends to pigment selection. When Jada mixes pigments to match a client's natural brow tones and skin undertones, she's drawing on the same instincts that guide a portrait artist mixing paint on a palette — reading how warm or cool a tone sits against a person's complexion, how pigment will shift and settle as it heals, and how to build a result that looks completely integrated with the face rather than added to it. It's a skill that's difficult to teach and impossible to fake.

That artistic foundation is what separates her work. It's not just technical execution — it's genuine artistry applied to the most personal canvas there is.

Her Credentials & Certifications

Jada is fully licensed and certified across multiple disciplines. She holds a Facial Specialist License (2021), a Manicuring/Pedicuring and Nail Extension Specialist License (2020), a Microblading Certification from LeDreamxBare Studios (2023), and a Tattoo Artist License (2023) — the state license required to legally perform permanent makeup procedures in Florida.

Jada is also 3x Barbicide Certified — the industry-standard certification in infection control, sanitation, and disinfection protocols. Barbicide Certification demonstrates a commitment to the highest standards of cleanliness and client safety, and Jada has earned it three times over. When you sit in her chair, you can be completely confident that every tool, every surface, and every step of your appointment meets rigorous professional hygiene standards.

That combination of esthetics training, tattoo licensure, and safety certification is what allows Jada to offer the full spectrum of brow services — from quick maintenance treatments like threading and waxing all the way through semi-permanent and permanent makeup procedures like microblading, combo brows, ombre brows, and cosmetic tattooing.

Trained Under Florida's Most Respected Names in the Industry

Jada's career path before opening Orlando Brow Studio wasn't random — it was intentional, and it took her through the studios of some of the most respected brow artists and founders in the state of Florida.

She worked at Brow Wizard, founded by Joely Ozmanov — one of the most influential brow artists and studio founders in Florida, and widely regarded as among the best in the country. Joely built Brow Wizard into one of the most recognized and sought-after brow destinations in the state, setting a standard for precision, artistry, and consistency that very few studios match. Working under that environment shaped Jada's technical rigor in ways that simply can't be replicated anywhere else. The standards at Brow Wizard are uncompromising, and Jada internalized every one of them.

She also spent time at Ulta Beauty's Brow Bar, where she developed speed, adaptability, and the ability to communicate clearly with a wide range of clients — from total first-timers to brow enthusiasts who knew exactly what they wanted. The Ulta Brow Bar demands a unique skill: delivering consistent, quality results efficiently while making every client feel personally cared for. Jada excelled at it.

Most recently before launching Orlando Brow Studio, she worked at Arts of Attraction in St. Petersburg, FL — founded by Natalie Sue, another one of Florida's most highly respected permanent makeup artists and beauty studio founders. Natalie has built Arts of Attraction into a premier destination for esthetic and PMU services in the Tampa Bay area, known for an exceptionally high standard of work and artist development. Under that environment, Jada delivered the full range of services including microblading, brow shaping, lash lifts, and tattoo-based cosmetic procedures, while also contributing to client experience, team operations, and retail education.

To have trained and worked across studios led by both Joely Ozmanov and Natalie Sue is a credential that very few Florida brow artists can claim. By the time Jada opened Orlando Brow Studio in 2023, she had been shaped by two of the most demanding, respected, and influential forces in the state's beauty industry.

Why She Built Orlando Brow Studio

Orlando Brow Studio exists because Jada had a clear vision of what a brow studio should actually feel like for both clients and artists — and couldn't find it anywhere else, so she built it.

For clients: a studio where you receive the artist's full, undivided attention. Where the consultation is thorough, not rushed. Where the work is designed for your face, not copied from a template. Where you leave not just satisfied, but genuinely excited every time you look in the mirror.

For artists: a future where talented PMU artists are compensated fairly, supported properly, and given the conditions they need to do their best work. Jada is actively building toward expanding Orlando Brow Studio into a larger space — one where other skilled artists can thrive the way she wishes the industry had made possible for her earlier.

Jada's Approach: Every Face Is Different

Every appointment at Orlando Brow Studio begins with a detailed consultation and precise brow mapping. Jada takes careful measurements of your facial structure — the distance between your eyes, the natural arch placement, the symmetry of your bone structure — and uses that data to design a brow shape that works specifically for you.

She mixes pigments to match your natural brow color and skin undertones — applying the same color theory instincts she developed as a portrait painter to ensure your results settle into something that looks like it was always there. She considers your skin type when selecting the right technique. And she never moves to the next step of any procedure until you have seen the mapped shape and approved it completely.

Clients consistently describe Jada as gentle, thorough, and genuinely invested in their results. That's not a coincidence — it's how she was trained, and it's the standard she holds herself to every single day.
