What is permanent makeup?
Permanent makeup (also called micropigmentation) is, plain and simple, facial tattoo.  The same products and/or tools are not used that a traditional body tattooist uses, but in theory, it is the same.  A traditional body tattooist goes as deep as the depth of a nickel; a permanent makeup artist goes as deep as the depth of a dime.

When you come to my office, you will be asked to give a medical history, to see if permanent makeup is right for you.  If you have Diabetes, Glaucoma (or some other serious illness), or use blood thinners for the heart (or some other serious medications), this procedure might not be for you.  If you can get a doctors release, you could still get permanent cosmetics.
 
FREEDOM...FREEDOM...FREEDOM
No longer will you be a slave to your appearance.  Have your brows, eye liner and lip color permanently applied, use a self tanner once a week on your face and go naked!  Throw cool water on your face to refresh it at lunch or every time you visit the rest room.  Could anything be better?

Permanent makeup doesn't melt!!!!
You can walk, run, work, swim, golf, and dance all night.  Your lip color will not get on your glass.  Your eyeliner won't run and your brows will still be there in the morning.

 You will "Wakeup with Makeup" every morning.
Is it taking longer and longer to get ready in the morning?  Have a professional apply your makeup and be ready when you roll out of bed every day.  The time that you will save and the freedom you will have; will be worth every penny.

Think about it? How much time, money and angst will you save if you wakeup with your brows, liner, shadow and lip color already on?  Just powder your nose and put on some lip gloss.  Then come back and see me every year or two to keep that fresh perfectly color coordinated look.
Reasons For Permanent Makeup
I do not use any pigments known to produce migration or allergic reactions.

BEFORE
Brows and liner, before and after.
Full lip color before and after.
Eye brows can be done different ways (and according to the clients coloring, face shape and wishes): hairstroke (to look more natural), solid (like eye brow pencil) or a mixture of both. 
Top is hairstroke or feathered (some skin must show between strokes for a natural look).
Below is the solid eyebrow pencil look (it will soften during the healing process).  This is usually the way to go with a blonde (and if the client has brow hair).
BEFORE
'Immediately' AFTER
Minimal brown/black smudge eyeliner, top and bottom.
AFTER
Dark brown liner, and soft brown shadow all around the eye (top & bottom).
I provide topical anesthetics and will make you as comfortable as possible.  Most people say that on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the worst), their discomfort level is from a 0 to 3.  Soft music, teddy bears, a roll for under your knees and a blanket (if you need it) make you smile and help you relax.

You and I (with the benefit of all of my training) will work together to pick colors that will give you a natural beauty with no makeup on.  When you have the correct colors on your face, flaws are diminished.  Your chosen colors are under your skin not on it so you can always apply more (or a different color) over your facial tattoo for special occasions.  Your skin tones will make the implanted pigment your one of a kind color.
Full lip color. You will miss the swelling when it's gone.

We where having too much fun and we didn't get a before picture of these hairstroke brows.  They turned out just beautiful.  I have had many young military women come to get their brows done.  I am aware of military regulations for brows and liner and it is so important that these brows do not look like a tattoo.  I got an e-mail from a client in Iraq and she told me "It's 105 and I have brows!".
Heavy Blue/black smudge eyeliner applied to top lid only.  I recommend liner all around for a finished look. I will however, do a top only if pressured.
