Permanent Eyeliner: Why Your Lashes, Glasses and Makeup Style Matter
When we design permanent eyeliner, we’re not simply deciding how thick or thin the line should be. One of the most important parts of creating beautiful permanent makeup is understanding how you normally look day to day. Do you wear strip lashes? Do you wear glasses? Do you usually wear quite defined eye makeup, or…

Hairstroke Brows: How Permanent Makeup Can Enhance Your Natural Eyebrows
One of the biggest concerns I hear from women considering permanent makeup is that they do not want their eyebrows to look too heavy, too dark or obviously “done”.

Often, Just a Little Is Needed
Why subtle permanent makeup can make such a difference When people first come to see me about their brows, they often worry that permanent makeup will mean a big change.

Permanent Makeup for Alopecia: Why Creating Natural-Looking Eyebrows Is Technically Different
For many people living with alopecia, losing their eyebrows can have a huge impact on confidence. Eyebrows do far more than frame the face. They help express emotion, create facial balance and are an important part of how we recognise ourselves in the mirror. Permanent makeup can restore the appearance of eyebrows, but treating clients…

It’s Never Just About the Eyebrows
When people look at a before and after photograph, their eyes naturally go straight to the eyebrows. Ours don’t. We look at the whole face.

Did the 90s eyebrow trend leave you with thinning brows?
If you grew up in the 1990s, there’s a good chance you remember the pencil-thin eyebrow trend. Back then, the smaller the eyebrow, the better. Armed with a magnifying mirror and a trusty pair of tweezers, many of us spent years removing “just one more hair”, convinced it would all grow back. For some women,…
