Permanent makeup involves implanting ink under the skin to recreate the effect of makeup, whether you want to achieve an editorial eyebrow or enhance your natural features. It can fill in gaps in brow hair, create winged eyeliner to save you time and hassle each morning or provide lip enhancements to restore your full lip shape or add your desired colour.

Your permanent makeup design starts with traditional makeup. Once you and I are happy with the look, we choose a colour/shade to suit you from the incredible Permablend and Tina Davies Permablend collections.

Only when all elements are decided will your treatment begin. You are in full control of your permanent makeup, supported by our knowledge and expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions

A question that clients often ask is, “How long will permanent makeup brows last for the amount of money they’re spending?” There’s both a short and long answer to this, as with most questions. The short answer: about 2-3 years, with a recommended color boost every 12-18 months. The long answer is that longevity depends on several factors that vary from client to client. Our skin characteristics differ greatly, and the placement of pigment impacts how long brows last. Unlike body art tattoos, permanent makeup artists use different pigments and place them more superficially, just beneath the skin’s surface in the dermal layer. Over time, the body gradually breaks down the pigment, shedding it through dead skin cells.Factors affecting how long the color lasts are extensive: typically, oily skin loses color sooner; medications, sun exposure, exfoliants, skincare routines, retinol use, skin hydration, genetics, skin tone, and pigment color choice all play a role. Unfortunately, there isn’t a universal time frame, but on average, brows retain their color for about a year before needing a boost. For some clients, this may be as short as 9 months or as long as 18-24 months.

My quick-fire answer is: No! Pain perception varies from person to person. Some clients may even find the gentle hum of the machine soothing enough to fall asleep, while others might experience some discomfort. However, most clients report that plucking brow hairs is actually more painful than the procedure itself. Additionally, a topical anesthetic is offered for all treatments to help minimize any discomfort.

Color is always an important decision for everyone. Your technician will assess your skin tone and natural coloring to select a range of suitable shades. Before your treatment begins, a color will be chosen that best complements your skin tone, hair color, and brow hairs.

As many of my clients would agree, I generally start with a lighter tone for the first treatment, which allows us the option to darken the color once it’s healed. Freshly tattooed brow pigments tend to appear brighter and warmer, softening as they heal. You can always choose to darken your permanent makeup later, but lightening is a whole different process and one that’s not as easily achieved.

Now, this is a serious concern for everyone.

If you have an ample amount of brow hair, it’s easier to determine the natural brow shape. However, if you have very little to no brow hair, it’s more like re-creating an entirely new brow.

Technicians use brow mapping, utilizing points on the nose and eyes to determine where your brows should start, arch, and end. The brow bone and overall face structure guide the height and thickness of the design.

You always have a say in the final look—if you’re not satisfied with the mapped brow shape, you can make adjustments.
Before any needles touch your skin, all permanent makeup is first drawn with a pencil, allowing your technician to take the time and precision needed to create a well-proportioned template.

It’s always advised to stay close to your natural brow shape; permanent makeup should aim to look as natural as possible, suitable for all times of day and night.

Only once the technician and client are happy with the design will the treatment begin.

Sometimes two treatments are needed to complete your permanent makeup—this depends entirely on the healed results after the first treatment and adherence to post-treatment aftercare, and it isn’t always necessary. The second appointment allows for any adjustments and perfects any irregularities.

It’s recommended to avoid coffee and alcohol for 24 hours before the treatment, as both can thin the blood. When there’s more blood present, it reduces the chances of a good healed result, as the blood can dilute the pigment and prevent it from settling well under the skin. Additionally, increased blood flow can lead to more clotting during the healing process, which may result in more pigment loss. Alcohol also sensitizes the skin, making the treatment more painful.
