FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is PMU /Permanent Makeup?

It is a cosmetic technique that uses tattoos as a medium to produce makeup-like designs, such as eyeliner and other permanent colors to enhance facial skin, lips, eyebrows and eyelids.

What is Microblading?

Microblading is a semi-permanent technique and requires maintenance every 2-3 years. This method is not for oily, combination (oily forehead), chapped (forehead) or sensitive skin. We use local numbing throughout the service for your comfort.

What are Nano Brows?

Nano Brows are similar to microblading but the difference is nanoblading is longer-lasting. Nano brows are viable options for those in pursuit of a fuller, darker-colored, or more precisely shaped eyebrows. This semi-permanent technique results in fine, natural-looking hair strokes that stand up to water and sweat.

What are Combo Brows?

Combo Brows is a combination of two forms of semi-permanent techniques: microblading and powder brows (shading). As microblading is involved in this method, it is not ideal for oily, chapped or sensitive clients. We use local numbing throughout the service for your comfort.

What are Powder Brows?

Powder brows, also known as ombre powder brows or shaded brows, are a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing technique that creates a soft, powdered effect on the eyebrows. The technique involves using a machine to deposit tiny dots of pigment into the skin, gradually building up a gradient effect that is lighter at the front of the brow and darker towards the tail. The result is a natural-looking, defined brow that can last for up to two years with proper aftercare and touch-ups. Powder brows are a popular choice for those looking for a more defined and long-lasting eyebrow shape.

What are Ombre Brows?

Ombre brows are a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing technique that uses a shading method to create a natural-looking gradient effect. The color is lighter at the front and gradually darkens towards the tail, mimicking natural hair growth. The technique involves depositing pigment into the skin using a manual hand tool or machine, and the results can last up to two years with proper aftercare and touch-ups. Ombre brows are popular for enhancing or reshaping sparse or patchy eyebrows.

What does your brow service include?

Our special brow packages include: In-person consultation discussing my process and answering any questions you may have before we begin. Customized brow mapping to design the brows of your dreams. Topical brow numbing gel for comfort. Quiet 3-hour relaxing brow session. Aftercare package with lotions & supplies for your new brows. Up to 2 years of waking up with your makeup smudge-free.

How much are your services?

Our prices vary because we offer many different styles depending on your makeup preference, skin type, and brow goals. Our services are fully customizable by shape, size, and color. I recommend to book a consultation for us to chat about your brow goals so I can determine if your skin type is a good candidate.

What if I have existing PMU work?

Please send me a clear well-lit photo of your brow area so I can evaluate if you are a good candidate for PMU.

 How long does it take?

The session takes anywhere from 2 - 3+ hours, give or take. Please allow a solid 4-hour window for your appointment. Most likely we won’t need that much time, but this isn’t something we want to rush when designing the brows of your dreams.

Do I need a Touch-Up?

Yes, in order to keep your eyebrow tattoo results looking fresh, a yearly touch-up is recommended. It is a two-step process, the first step is the initial appointment and the second step is a touch-up appointment 6-12 weeks after. Within a week of your first treatment, the color will fade as much as 30% or more lighter in shade and will heal to more of a natural makeup look. To achieve the desired look, a touch-up is recommended.

How Long Does It Last?

For most clients, permanent makeup will need maintenance every 1 - 3 years. Clients with oily skin or frequent sun exposure will need refreshing more often. In order to keep your permanent makeup results looking fresh, a yearly touch-up is highly recommended. It definitely beats putting on makeup for the next 730 - 1,095 days.

Does it Hurt?

I use a quality topical numbing gel throughout the entire service to keep you nice and comfortable. Most of my clients say the pain level is 2-3 on a pain scale of 1-10 and describe the process as less painful than a mild sunburn. Having years of waking up with smudge-proof makeup is almost worth 2 mild sunburns.
