You are excited and scared and have so many questions, right? This is totally normal and hopefully I can answer some of those questions for you right here.
Once you have looked over my website, checked out my Bio and Recent Work, and you have made the decision to book your appointment with me, here is some more information on what to expect:
You come in for your appointment which will last about two and a half hours. You fill out a New Client Form and head into the procedural room. We will discuss your goals, you are welcome to show me photos and have make-up filled in to show me what you like as well, or not, if you are struggling to figure out what you want to achieve, I can definitely help with that.
I will then map out a shape for you, focusing on creating a design that is symmetrical, fits your facial structure, and meets your goals. We can then make any adjustments to the shape at your request. Once we have settled on the perfect shape for you, I will numb the area to be worked on, pick out your pigment color, and begin the procedure. I will send you home with aftercare ointment and instructions including things to avoid during healing. You will want to set up your appointment on a date that gives you at least two weeks before any important social events or vacations that involve water sports. Also keep in mind, the procedure area should be protected from the sun for 30 days. For about the first 5-10 days of healing, there may be some swelling, bruising, darkening of pigment, scabbing and peeling. After the scabbing phase, you will be able to resume normal exercise, showering, makeup, etc. Permanent Makeup is a two-step process. You will come back for the retouch session in 6 weeks. At this session, we will perfect the area even more, and make any adjustments to the shape, size and color, and reinforce the pigment. This session takes about 1.5 hours. Retouch pricing is based on how long it has been since our last session and this pricing can be found on each page of the service requested.
