What is Permanent Brow Make-up (TATTOO):
Enhances your natural brows where you may have lost brow hairs due to over waxing, tweezing or genetics. Permanent Brows can recreate a fuller looking eyebrow that can last years!
The service requires a special tool that causes a scratching sound that occurs when the microblade glides through the skin. It is similar to the sound of a quarter rubbing on sandpaper. It does not hurt, we apply top of line topical numbing cream which numbs the skin during the appointment session
(Do not let your mind will trick you into thinking that that sound is causing pain when it is really just an unusual noise. :)

Microblading lasts about 1-2 years depending on the skin type. Not suitable for oily skin types
Microshading (Ombré Powder brows) is a machines shading technique it deposits ink into the skin resulting in a smooth “makeup brow pencil look”. As if a brow pencil filled in your brows. Suitable for all skin types.
Combo Microblading: It is a mixture of both microblading and Microshading. This technique mimics natural strokes and shading on the tail of your brows. This technique lasts up to 3 to 5 years. Best for combination skin types.
𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘁?
This is a question we probably get 1,000 times a day; “Does eyebrow microblading hurt?”
We use a special numbing cream containing “lidocaine“. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic (numbing medication). It works by blocking nerve signals in your body. Lidocaine topical (for use on the skin) is used to reduce pain or discomfort caused by skin irritations. So that you may enjoy the service.
Do I need to wax or thread my brows before my appointment?
No, we will razor your brows at your appointment. We will create your DREAM shape for your forever brows.

Unlike traditional tattoos. Permanent makeup is SEMI-permanent. It will fade overtime.
Your initial appointment will require a healing process. It will usually take 2 appointments for you to see the final results. After the first appointment, we will have to see how your skin reacts to the procedure and then adjust our approach at your touch-up appointment if needed. Please scheduler touch-up appointment exactly after 6 weeks of your initial appointment. You are required to schedule we cannot schedule one for you. In between your first appointment and your touch-up, your brows will be healing, they may will look faded as they heal after your first appointment please do not get discouraged this is apart of the process.
