What is permanent makeup, and how does it work?Permanent makeup, also known as micropigmentation, is a cosmetic procedure that involves implanting pigment into the skin to enhance features such as eyebrows, eyeliner, and lips. It provides long-lasting results, typically lasting for several years. The most common techniques are Microblading, Powder Brows, and Lip Blushing.
-
Is permanent makeup really permanent?While it's called "permanent makeup," the color will fade over time based on the pigment used. Factors like sun exposure, skin type, and lifestyle can affect how long it lasts. Touch-up sessions are usually required to maintain the desired look.
-
How long does each procedure take, and is it painful?The duration varies depending on the service. Most procedures take between 2 to 3 hours. We use topical anesthetics to minimize discomfort, and many clients report minimal to no pain during the process.
-
How long is the healing and recovery period after a permanent makeup procedure?Healing times can vary, but typically, there is a 5 to 10-day initial healing period, during which you might experience slight redness and scabbing. Full healing can take 2-4 weeks. You can check out the "Before & After Care" section for more details.
-
How long will the results last, and do I need touch-up sessions?Results can last for 1 to 3 years, depending on various factors. Most clients benefit from touch-up sessions every 12 to 18 months to maintain the vibrancy of the color.
-
Can I choose the color and shape for my permanent makeup?Absolutely! We work closely with you to select the perfect color and shape that complements your features and meets your preferences.
-
What is microblading?Microblading is a special way to make eyebrows look fuller and better shaped. It's like a kind of tattoo, but not as permanent. A small tool with tiny needles is used to add tiny lines that look like real eyebrow hairs. This helps people who have thin or less hair in their eyebrows. The best candidates for microblading are those who want to improve the way their eyebrows look. It's good for people who have thin eyebrows, gaps in their eyebrows or have lost eyebrow hair due to certain reasons. If you want natural-looking and long-lasting eyebrows without having to draw them on every day, microblading might be a good choice for you. It is not recommended for candidates with oily skin.
-
What are powder brows?Powder brows are a way to make your eyebrows look full and colored, similar to how makeup powder gives color to your skin. Instead of using tiny lines like in microblading, powder brows are done by gently shading your eyebrows with a special tool. This creates a soft, powdery look that's more filled-in and defined. People who want to have eyebrows that look more filled and defined, like when you use eyebrow makeup, might like powder brows. It's a good option if you want your eyebrows to look more put together and want a longer-lasting solution compared to daily makeup. If you prefer a softer and more solid eyebrow look, powder brows could be a good choice for you.
-
How are powder brows different from microblading?Powder brows and microblading are both semi-permanent eyebrow treatments, but they differ in technique and appearance. Powder brows create a softer, filled-in look, while microblading involves creating individual hair-like strokes for a more natural appearance.
-
What is lip blushing?Lip blushing is a way to make your lips look naturally colored and a bit more defined. It's like a semi-permanent lipstick that stays on for a long time but isn't permanent like a real tattoo. A special kind of ink is used to add a soft layer of color to your lips, making them look pretty and a little fuller. People who might enjoy lip blushing are those who want to enhance the color of their lips and make them look more vibrant. If you wish your lips had a bit more color or if they have become paler over time, lip blushing can be a good choice. It's also great if you want your lips to look a bit more plump and appealing without using regular lipstick every day.
-
Does lip blushing hurt?Some discomfort is normal during the lip blushing procedure, but it's generally tolerable. Most technicians will use a numbing cream or gel to minimize pain. Your lips may feel sensitive or swollen afterward, but any discomfort should subside within a few days.
-
What is eyelash tattoo?An eyelash tattoo is a way to make your eyelashes look darker and more defined, kind of like wearing mascara, but it lasts longer. It's done by putting a special ink close to your lash line, so it makes your lashes seem fuller, and your eyes pop. People who might like an eyelash tattoo are those who want their eyelashes to look darker and more noticeable without using mascara every day. If you don't like the idea of applying mascara or if you have lighter lashes that you'd like to stand out more, an eyelash tattoo could be a good option.
-
What are eyelash extensions?Eyelash extensions are synthetic fibers that are individually applied to your natural eyelashes to enhance their length, thickness, and curl, giving your lashes a fuller and more dramatic look.
-
How long do eyelash extensions last?Typically, eyelash extensions can last anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle and how well you care for them.
-
Is the application of eyelash extensions safe?Yes, when applied by a trained and certified lash technician, eyelash extensions are safe. We use high-quality adhesive and take all necessary precautions to protect your eyes and skin during the application process.
-
Will eyelash extensions damage my natural lashes?No, if applied correctly and with proper care, eyelash extensions should not damage your natural lashes. We use a technique that ensures the extensions are attached to your individual lashes and not the skin.
-
How long does the application process take?The initial application usually takes between 2 to 4 hours, but it may vary based on the desired lash look and the condition of your natural lashes.
-
Can I wear mascara with eyelash extensions?Most clients find that mascara is unnecessary with eyelash extensions, as they provide a fuller and darker look. However, if you choose to wear mascara, make sure it's water-based and specifically designed for use with extensions.
-
Do I need to get infills, and how often?Yes, to keep your lash extensions looking their best, we recommend getting infills every 2 to 3 weeks. This will replace any lashes that have naturally shed and maintain the fullness of your lashes.
-
What should I do if I want to remove my eyelash extensions?If you want to remove your extensions, please don't attempt to do it yourself. Visit our studio, and we'll safely and professionally remove them without damaging your natural lashes.
-
Can I customize the look of my lash extensions?Absolutely! During your consultation, you can discuss your desired lash style, length, and curl with our lash technician to achieve the look you want. We sometimes recommend bringing an inspiration picture of the style you are looking to achieve.
