Mrs Geek Needs Help - Eyebrows

[Barbara's tring]

Hi Hun, I'm a permanent makeup artist and I see clients all the time like that, but I'm here in the USA (South Florida). Anyway, make sure the pigment (ink) they use is NOT TATTOO INK! :irked: Permanent makeup requires special pigment, yes it is a tattoo also but our pigment is thick like a paste, and regular tattoo ink is thin like water. Over time regular tattoo ink will spread larger and almost always there black turns a blue/gray. It sounds too me who ever did you eyebrows use the wrong color tone on you. Did she put a dot of the pigment on you face with her hand to see how you body accepts the color? Very important that they do that. Alot of times you will put a brown and when it hits the skin it turns right away to a green or orange! then you know your client is hot or cold tones. Also they have a pigment that is a mix called bubblegum buy Kolorsource, they GUARANTEE it will not turn a different color. I have been doing this a long time and really love what I do, just make sure they put those dots on you forehead to see what the color looks like on you, and you will be happy. Also if you want it to look like hair, that's called hair strokes, alot of artist as myself like to do shading on brows, that what I have, but it's just a preference, so make sure you let them know you want hair stroke style. Well I know I babble, but I hope I helped, and if you have any other questions just ask:idea:. Good Luck, and just relax there are many wonderful artist out there and you will be fineBye...Barbara

Hi Barbara,

Welcome to the Geek Site:hug:

Are you a member of any US chat site for Permanent Cosmetics?

I'm in contact with a small group of around 15 US/Canada and New Zealand techs... It's fantastic.
I also chat with many others, Karla Kwist(Las Vgeas)..Liza Simms(Alaska) and many more great techs.

Hi, no I'm not a member of any chat of pmu. I didn't even know there was such a group. How do you get involved with that? I would be very interested in getting into a group with techs like myself. Thanks, Barbara:green:

Hi there. Your eyebrows have faded to pink due to improper use of the original colour, your skin tone affects this. The colour can be corrected quite easily but you must be very carefull who you choose to do the proceedure. Individual hair stroke simulation is also the best option as it looks far more natural...not many technicians can do this to a very high standard though. I can recomend people to you or I do personally run clinics in the UK at various locations. I am very highly skilled having trained with one of the premier schools in the UK - SMUDGE-FREE of London. Please feel free to contact me at my email address should you require any further info. Regards Wendy.

Wendy - thank you for your help with this. I actually went to Karen Betts of Nouveau Contours and she did my brows and did an amazing job. She did the textured hair strokes and I am truly thrilled.
