10 things you should know before getting permanent makeup
At Beautiful Beauty Ink, we believe in empowering our clients with knowledge before they commit to enhancing their beauty through permanent solutions.
Whether you're considering permanent eyeliner, lip blush, or eyebrow microblading, it's vital to be well-informed.
Here's a rundown of the top 10 things you should know before taking the plunge into the world of permanent makeup.
#1 What is Permanent Makeup?
Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing, is a procedure that uses specialized techniques to deposit pigment into the skin, enhancing features like eyebrows, eyes, and lips.
Unlike traditional tattoos, the pigments used in permanent makeup are designed to fade over time, allowing for adjustments as your style and preferences change.
#2 Understand the Process
Each permanent makeup procedure involves multiple steps, including consultation, design approval, pigment selection, and the actual application.
The process can take anywhere from 1 to 3 hours, depending on the area being treated.
At Beautiful Beauty Ink, we prioritize a thorough consultation to ensure you’re comfortable and informed about each step
#3 Choose the Right Professional
Skill and experience of the artist significantly impact the results of your permanent makeup.
Look for certified professionals with a proven track record and a portfolio showcasing their work.
At Beautiful Beauty Ink, our artists are licensed and have extensive training in the latest techniques to deliver stunning, natural-looking results.
#4: Consider the Long-Term Commitment
While it's called "permanent makeup," the results typically last between 1 to 3 years, depending on factors like skin type, lifestyle, and sun exposure.
Regular touch-ups may be required to maintain the desired look.
Understanding this commitment helps set realistic expectations about upkeep and longevity..
#6 Preparation is Key
To ensure the best results, preparation is crucial. Avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and caffeine for at least 24 hours before your appointment.
Refrain from using any skincare products that contain retinoids or acids near the area to be treated, as these can increase sensitivity and affect healing.
#7 Pain and Discomfort Levels
While the thought of needles might be scary, the discomfort associated with permanent makeup is typically minimal.
Topical numbing agents are applied to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
Most clients describe the sensation as a slight scratching or tingling feeling..
#9 Allergic Reactions and Sensitivities
Although rare, allergic reactions to pigments can occur. We conduct a patch test prior to the procedure to rule out any potential allergies.
If you have sensitive skin or a history of allergic reactions, it's essential to discuss this during your consultation to ensure the safest experience possible.
#10 Consultations are Required
A consultation is a critical first step in your permanent makeup journey.
It provides an opportunity to discuss your goals, choose the right colors, and shape your design according to your unique facial features.
At Beautiful Beauty Ink, we offer personalized consultations to ensure you achieve a look that enhances your natural beauty.
