FAQ
Permanent Makeup Questions
What is permanent makeup?
Permanent makeup is cosmetic tattooing used to softly enhance brows, eyeliner, and lips. The goal is a polished, natural-looking result that reduces daily makeup time.
What are Ombre Eyebrows?
Ombre eyebrows are soft shaded brows that create a beautiful gradient effect, lighter at the front and darker toward the tail. This technique gives a soft makeup look that enhances your natural beauty.
What are Powder Brows?
Powder brows use shading to create a fuller makeup-style effect with even color distribution through the brow.
What are Nano Brows?
Nano brows use a machine to create delicate hair-like strokes. They often heal softly and can suit clients wanting a refined, natural result.
How long does permanent makeup last?
Most services last about 1 to 3 years depending on skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure, and aftercare. Refresh appointments help maintain the look.
How long is healing?
Initial healing is usually around 3 to 10 days depending on the area and technique. Final color settling takes several weeks.
