BROWS
-
Permanent makeup is a form of cosmetic tattooing that enhances facial features like eyebrows and eyes using pigment designed to fade naturally over time.
-
Results typically last between 1 to 3 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, aftercare, and how soft or bold you prefer your look. In some cases, results can last 5 years or more, though most clients choose to refresh their color every 1–2 years to keep it looking its best.
-
No, most people don't find it painful, and many even fall asleep during the procedure. I use numbing cream before and during to make sure you stay as comfortable as possible.
-
Most procedures takes about 2.5 hours, including consultation, mapping, numbing and the actual treatment.
-
The initial healing takes about 7–10 days, during which you can expect some flaking and fading. However, it takes a full 6 weeks for your skin to completely heal and for the true results to settle in.
-
PMU is typically a two-step process: an initial session followed by a perfecting touch-up around 8 weeks later. However, some clients are happy with their healed results after just one session. Touch-ups are recommended but not always necessary — it depends on your skin, preferences, and how the pigment heals.
-
We'll choose a color that matches your natural hair and works beautifully with your skin tone. I also take your personal style into account, whether you want something soft and subtle or a little more defined.
-
We'll map out your shape together using professional tools, but it's not just about numbers, we'll talk about your goals and what feels right for your face. I'll guide you toward a shape that looks natural, flattering, and realistic for you.
-
Nope! Pigments used are vegan and cruelty free.
-
Yes, when done in a licensed, sterile environment by a trained professional. I follow strict sanitation protocols and use high-quality pigments.
-
No. PMU is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
-
There are several medical and skin-related contraindications for PMU. You may not be a suitable candidate if any of the following apply:
You are pregnant or nursing
You've had Botox or dermal fillers in or near the treatment area within the past 4 weeks
You've taken Accutane within the past year and your skin has not fully regulated
You are diabetic (unless controlled and approved by your doctor)
You have autoimmune disorders (doctor's consent required)
You've undergone chemotherapy in the past 12 months
You have contagious diseases or viral infections
You have a history of epilepsy or seizures
You've had a chemical peel within the last 3 weeks (skin must be fully healed)
You have an active sunburn or frostbite in the treatment area
You are currently using skincare products containing alpha or beta hydroxy acids (Retin-A, etc.) — must discontinue use at least 14 days prior
You are on blood thinners or certain blood pressure medications
You have a history of keloid scarring
You have metal allergies (such as iron or nickel)
-
In many cases, yes, but it depends on the saturation and shape of the previous work. A consultation is required to assess.
LASH LINER
-
Lash line enhancement is a subtle form of permanent makeup that adds definition between your lashes, creating the appearance of fuller, darker lashes without looking like traditional eyeliner.
Lash line enhancement typically lasts 2-3 years, though this can vary based on your skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare routine.

The initial healing takes 7-10 days with minimal scabbing. Your eyes may be slightly swollen for the first 24-48 hours. Complete healing takes 4-6 weeks.
