Cosmetic Tattoos:
How long does permanent makeup last?
Powder brows and the Lash Line Tattoo can last for about 3-5 years, and lip blushing can last for about 1-2 years! The tattoo typically does not fade completely after this amount of time, but a touch up session would likely be needed to make the tattoos look as pigmented as they were after the first session.
What’s the difference between powder brows and micro blading?
Microblading is done using a blade to create hairlike strokes on the brow. Because of the blade, microblading often creates scar tissue wherever the pigment is placed, resulting in damaged skin. Powder brows are done using a tattoo machine to create a soft powdery look on the brows. Because this technique is done with a tattoo machine rather than a blade, powder brows are much safer for the skin.
Does permanent makeup hurt?
There is some minimal pain for any permanent makeup service, numbing agents are also applied for each procedure to minimize discomfort.
How long does it take?
Each procedure takes roughly 2-4 hours to complete
Is there anything I should do to prepare for my appointment?
