How are Permanent Cosmetics Applied?
By using traditional tattoo equipment, & Pigments developed especially for Cosmetic tattoos. After you and I decide what colors will work best on your skin.
I do all my brows in hairstrokes instead of a penciled look for a more natural look. So it doesnt look like a tattoo. Please see before and after photos
Who is a good candidate?
Pretty much anybody who wants to look "fresh" & put together all the time. People who suffer from allergies, especially to cosmetics, people with impaired vision, shaky hands, alopcia patients, people with out or light, undefined brows, people who have small lips or feel there lips aren't shaped as nice as they would like them to be. As long as you don't have any serious health problems you should be fine. When in doubt ask your health care professional before perusing.
How Long will it last?
Environmental factors and individual body chemistry dictate this. But generally you should get 5-10 years out of a procedure. Being diligent with sunscreen prolongs it. As well as being careful not to expose to alpha hydroxy acids and other harsh exfoliate.
Will it Hurt?
I have been properly trained in the use of topicals to keep your discomfort minimal if existent at all. Most people just feel a little pressure. You will have very mild swelling to the area when we finish. Diminishing after an hour or so.
How will I look after?
For eye brows, pretty much like you just waxed, a little red & puffy. This will diminish quickly for most people. Slightly darker color than desired end effect. This will lighten over the next few days. For eyeliner your eyes may look a little swollen like you've been crying. This goes away in about an hour. if you have your lips done, you will have swollen full lips for about 12 hours. Your color will be darker than desired result until the lips are 3-5 days into healing. Lips will "peel" like chapped lips. Color will be hidden by lymph fluid healing lip for about 6 weeks. Then color will re-emerge. It will then be color we selected in your consult.
Does eye liner only come in Black?
No, I can do black, browns, soft taupes, grays. Any color or thickness is available. Also I can do top, bottom or both lids. We will discuss this fully in your consultation.
