Swelling Can Happen with Permanent Make-up
November 25, 2014
Swelling can happen if you have sensitive skin, or are taking medicines that irritate the skin including aspirin and antibiotics. With proper post procedure care the inflammation can go away in a couple of hours.

Do Your Homework Before Permanent Make-Up
October 10, 2014
Dissatisfaction with your permanent make-up can lead to frustration and costly corrections. Sometimes when the pigment is too deep, it can be more difficult to remove. As with any permanent make-up procedure, including corrective procedures, doing your homework is the key factor for your own satisfaction. In the past few days, I have spoken to two ladies who are unhappy with their eyebrows. Their desire to have the work done overshadowed the questions they needed to ask. One had received 3-D … [Read more...]
My Eyebrows Look Incredible!
October 2, 2014
A huge thank you to Michelle for this wonderful testimonial. Have I mentioned that I just love my job! “My eyebrows look incredible and I’m constantly getting compliments on them! Not only do they make my face look fantastic, but having this done has also shaved off at least 10 minutes of my morning make-up routine of plucking and drawing them on just right. I had been debating for about two years weather or not to get permanent eyebrows done and I’m so glad I finally did it! I have been so … [Read more...]
A Longer Eyebrow
April 30, 2014
A longer eyebrow works well when you have wide temples that you want to minimize. If your face is narrow it may not work because it would give the eyebrow too much power.

Two, when your own brows are out of balance, this artistic procedure creates the illusion of balance and symmetry. Three, it can correct some facial features such as wider than usual temples, a longer … [Read more...]
