Permanent Makeup FAQ

Lash enhancement, or invisible eyeliner as it is often called, involves tattooing an ultra-thin black line along the top lash line to create the illusion of fuller, darker, thicker lashes. The result is a natural, youthful, eye-opening effect. Depending on your preference, the bottom lash line can also be subtly tattooed.

Lash enhancement can be a great solution for anyone who wants thicker, darker, healthier-looking lashes, including people with naturally sparse lashes or medical conditions that cause their lashes to fall out (e.g. alopecia). Clients who have poor eyesight or have suffered a stroke and those who do not have a steady hand. Those with Graves' Disease and glaucoma may not be good candidates. You’ll also want to hold off if you’ve recently had eye surgery or plan to have surgery in the near future. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions about whether lash enhancement is right for you.

This is a tattoo so some discomfort is to be expected. Most clients agree that topical pain management is not necessary & prefer to just let their endorphins do their job We do not like to pre-numb which involves applyiing a numbing agent to the area to be treated for 20-45 minutes. And while we prefer to not numb at all, in some instances, we can opt instead to use a very short application of a secondary numbing agent after the start of the procedure. Why we dont like to pre-numb?1.) Numbing is a vasoconstrictor which pushes the blood filled capillaries close to the surface of the very thin areas that we work on (eyelids & lips) Puncturing a capilary with a needle will cause bruising, bleeding, or worse - placing pigment into the capillaries & having that pigment travel the vascular path. Also known as pigment migration. 2.) Numbing toughens the skin making it rubbery or mushy, and very difficult to work with. Instead of a smooth PMU service, toughened skin will cause the needle to bounce off the skin rather than penetrating. This will add significant time onto your appointment, increase trauma to the skin due to the need to increase pressure, and reduce the ammount of pigment that the skin is able to accept. 4.) Not only is it difficult to place the pigment into the skin when numbing agents are used, it is also very difficut for a client to retain the pigment past the first few days. 3.) We can tell the difference in the results! The pigment tends to bleed or be blurry with those that prenumb. With permanent makeup we want clean lines. If still you require prenumbing, please understand the above implications in doing so.Please arrive 20 minutes early.

Depending on area treated, a session could take 1 (face) - 2 (body) hours. This includes cleansing the skin, numbing time, the procedure, stem cells, & a post treatment hydrating mask.

Many personal factors determine the length of time that PMU will last. But in general, it can last up to 5 years.
