What is meant by permanent makeup?

Permanent makeup means more than just getting a tattoo. It's a procedure that permanently alters the look of your eyebrows, eyelashes, or lips to be a way you've always wanted them to be.

Permanent makeup can be done on any part of your face, but it's most often performed on the eyebrows and eyelashes. It can also be done on the lips and chin. The process involves injecting pigment into the skin using needles that are inserted into specially designed syringes. The needles are then used to pull pigment out of vials and inject it into specific areas of the face.

You can choose from three different types of permanent makeup: ombre brows, powder brows, and eyebrow permanent. Ombre brows involve blending two colors into one natural brown; powder brows involve blending two colors into one natural brunette; and eyebrow permanent involves filling in sparse areas with pigment so that they appear darker than the surrounding area.

How long does it take to apply permanent makeup?

The length of time it takes to apply permanent makeup depends on the type of makeup you choose, and also on your own skin tone. For example, if you're looking for a bold ombre or a powder brow look, it could take up to three hours per eye. Our in-house staff can help you plan out a timeline for your eyebrows so that they aren't too taxing on your schedule.

If you're interested in microblading or eyebrow permanent makeup, we recommend scheduling an appointment at least two weeks out—it's important that your skin is completely healed before we do the procedure.

Is permanent makeup expensive?

The cost of perming your brows depends on the type of permanent makeup you choose.

Powder brows are a popular choice for those who want to have the look of natural brows, but don't want to go through the hassle of plucking or waxing. These designs rely on powder makeup to fill in a sparse area and create the illusion of fullness. The price for this type of brow is about $400-$500 depending on how much detail you want.

Ombre brows are similar to ombre hair coloring, except that it's applied to the face instead of hair. This can be done at home without any special equipment or training, but you'll need to purchase special tools like tweezers and scissors, which can cost around $600-$700 each.

Microblading involves using small needles to inject ink into your skin so that it looks like natural hair follicles have been created under your own brows or lashes using an eyebrow pencil or other device like makeup spoolies.) The cost varies depending on what type of microblading service you choose as well as its complexity.

How do you maintain permanent makeup?

Permanent makeup is an amazing thing, but it's not the simplest process. Here are some tips to keep your eyebrows looking like they were born that way:

1. Ombre brows: Ombre brows are a great choice for those who want to keep their natural brows, but don't want to commit to permanent makeup. This look is simple enough to maintain at home, and you can even do it at home while you're sleeping!

2. Powder brows: If you're looking for something more dramatic, try powdering your brows in place with a makeup setting spray or powder. You can also use a powder bronzer if you have one—if not, try using an eyebrow pencil or a thick liquid eyeliner instead!

3. Eyebrow permanent: If you're looking for something more permanent than just eyebrow tinting or powdering, try microblading! Microblading uses tiny blades that cut into your skin to create individual hairs that give your eyebrows depth and definition without being permanent or painful.

Is permanent makeup painful?

Permanent makeup is a great way to make yourself feel and look your best. That's why so many people choose it, but it can be really painful at first.

When you're first starting out with permanent makeup, you might feel like you're about to go into shock because of how sensitive your skin is. It sounds crazy, but it's true! Your skin is naturally more sensitive than most people's when they first try it. It doesn't mean you'll never get used to it though—and in fact, once you've received the training and learned how to do the procedure correctly, you'll find that your skin will become more resilient to pain over time.

Most permanent makeup procedures last anywhere from 3-6 hours each session depending on which kind of permanent makeup procedure that person has chosen.
