Is it really permanent?


While permanent makeup is long-lasting, it may fade over time and varies person to person. The length of time that it stays on will depend on factors such as lifestyle, skin type, and the colors that are used during the procedure. It will require touch-up sessions to maintain the desired look. It can last anywhere between 1-3 years.

Does it hurt?


The level of discomfort that a client experiences varies depending on the person. However, most clients report that the level of discomfort is minimal, similar to that of getting a tattoo. Permanent makeup uses a double numbing process, which can make it almost pain-free.

How long does the procedure take?


The length of the procedure depends on the area being tattooed. It can range from 1-3 hours to complete.

What is the aftercare like?


Aftercare for permanent makeup is vital to ensure proper healing and longevity of the tattoo. Please visit the aftercare page HERE.

How do I prepare for the procedure?

Generally, it's recommended to avoid alcohol, caffeine, blood-thinning medications, and sun exposure prior to your appointment. Please visit the Preparing for Your Procedure page HERE.

Can I still wear makeup after the procedure?


Yes, you can still wear makeup after the procedure. However, it's recommended that you wait at least two weeks before applying makeup to the tattooed area and it is fully healed.

Can I choose the color and shape of my permanent makeup?

Your permanent makeup artist will work closely with you to customize the color and shape that best complements your natural features and personal preferences.

Are touch-up sessions necessary?

Yes, touch-up sessions are required to maintain the desired results. These sessions are scheduled after the initial healing period and help to refine and enhance the permanent makeup. The first touch-up is included in the initial price of the procedure.

Can I have permanent makeup done if I have certain medical conditions or allergies?

Certain medical conditions and allergies may impact your eligibility for permanent makeup. It's important to disclose your medical history and any known allergies to your artist when booking your appointment and during the consultation.

What if I don't like the results?

A reputable artist will work closely with you during the consultation and design process to ensure your desired outcome is achieved. However, in the rare event that you are dissatisfied, discuss your concerns with your artist to explore possible solutions, such as adjustments or corrections.
