Frequently Asked Questions

What Can I Answer For You?

Will the permanent make up procedure hurt?

Everyone has a different level of pain tolerance and sensitivity. Topical anesthetic is applied during the treatment to help keep clients comfortable. A small amount of discomfort is expected as no tattoo is painless.

How long will my cosmetic tattoo procedure take?

The entire appointment duration is roughly 2.5-3 hours. This includes the consent form, consultation, shaping, tattooing, photo documentation, and aftercare instructions. Please allow the proper timeframe for your procedure.

How long does permanent make up last?

This depends on multiple factors including; the particular technique chosen, the pigment selected, the individual’s skin type (dry/oily), age (youthful/mature), daily lifestyle, and proper aftercare. Clients generally get a touch up every 1-3 years for a refreshed look.

How long will it take for my tattoo to heal? Will I be able to go to work?

Healing period can last 7-14 days with no major downtime. You will be able to go about your daily activities like normal with the exception of a few. As long as you follow aftercare instructions, there should not be an issue going to work or being out in public.

Will you shave off all my eyebrow hairs? Does this harm my existing brow hair?

No. We do not shave off all your brow hairs. We keep as much of your natural hairs as possible. This treatment does not harm your existing brow hairs as we do not penetrate the skin deep enough to reach the hair follicles.

What happens during the 6-12 week touch up (perfecting session)?

A touch up is recommended 6-12 weeks after the initial treatment. During your touch up, we will fill in any areas that may not have taken the pigment as well. This typically lasts 45 minutes – 2 hours. This session is highly recommended but not required. You do not have to return so soon if you like how the permanent make up has healed after the initial session.

Is the 6-12 week touch up (perfecting session) necessary?

As pigment retention cannot be guaranteed, this session allows us to go over any areas that need a little extra attention. We would highly recommend it, as permanent make up generally takes 2 sessions to complete the look.

How do I prepare for my appointment?

Following Pre-care & Aftercare instructions is an important aspect to achieve the best possible results. You will receive these instructions in the email confirmation upon booking. Instructions for each service may be viewed on their corresponding page in the Services section.
