From Vassar's Main Street, take M-46 west past the M-15 junction into downtown Caro - about 15 minutes with no highway driving. We're at 124 N. State St with free street parking and a lot behind the building. Most Vassar clients find it faster than driving to Saginaw and easier to park.
Why Vassar clients book with us:
Kate Tu uses OPI and Valentino gel products - not the discount supplies that cause lifting, yellowing, or allergic reactions. Her lash adhesive is medical-grade with low fumes, which matters if you've had sensitivity issues elsewhere. Many Vassar clients combine a gel manicure with lash fills in a single 90-minute visit to make the drive count.

"I LOVE LOVE LOVE my lashes. I got the classic extensions, and after having natural lashes that barely exist, these look so real, full, thick and so lightweight I can't even feel them. I love not having to wear eye makeup anymore.
The first extensions Kate did for me still looked nearly flawless 4 weeks later. And when I thought this was the best my lashes have ever looked they just got better the next time I went. So ladies if you want great lashes go see Kate at just teasin. you won't be disappointed."

Classic lash extension client
"I've been driving from Vassar to Kate for 2 years now. My volume lashes last 3+ weeks between fills - I tried two other places closer but kept having fallout issues. The 15-minute drive is nothing compared to waking up with lashes that actually stay put."
— Sarah M., Vassar (volume lash client since 2024)
"Booked gel nails for myself and my two daughters before Vassar High prom 2025. Kate did custom nail art for all three of us - different designs but they matched the dresses perfectly. Zero chips through all the photos and dancing."
— Jennifer T., Vassar (gel manicure + nail art)
"I'm a nurse and my hands are constantly in gloves and sanitizer. Kate's gel manicures last my full 2-week rotation without lifting. I book my pedicure at the same time - makes the trip from Vassar worth it."
— Amanda R., Vassar (gel mani + pedi regular)
