Permanent Makeup eyebrows

Options
Hello, put this up on the other thread.

The Wife (does not come on here) Has always wanted to have eyebrows of a model, don't we all. anyway she had been looking and looking for some months now, about permanent makeup, over the past few months many times have I gone to bed and she is still on the pc tapping away!

Anyway she wanted model like eyebrows, some call eyebrow tattoo so I stuck my nose in and done some research with her. we saw the prices and of course they were not all the same, so we had to look a little deeper. The quality really did vary a fair bit so we though we would go and have a consultation or 2! went to a lady in Harley Street, but what she drew on was not that nice so we went away and had a think.

Someone the wife works with friends of a friend of a friend(you know how it goes) had a lady called Heidi Worman , so we thought we would go and see. If was a fair little trip but it worked out well. The style and things were just what she wanted, and we went through all the special things and pigments (its was nothing like a tattoo machine or pigments) it is all very high tech.

Well the wife had it carried out and is super happy with it, I watched her do this and its fairly amazing to be honest, she did not really feel a thing as she adds some special things all the time. she is now well chuffed with her Cindy Crawford brows! and I honestly am pleased as well! (that takes a lot!!!) I recommend Heidi Worman ,you can google her for details, not sure about advertising.

She now saves a lot of time in the morning, and dose not use a pencil any more,

its very realistic and looks excellent, there is a down side............. she is looking now to have her eyeliner carried out as well.... she can pay for that.

cheers

    Hi, I had this done quite some time ago, I think you should mention that you need to have a top done about a month after the initial process otherwise they fade very quickly and the red pigment fades last so you could end up with ginger eyebrows:eek:. You can also ask any practitioner to apply more anesthetic cream if you have low pain tolerance and take two painkillers half an hour before the procedure:).
    Thank you for this site Martin
    The time for change has come
    Good luck for the future

    I had semi-permanent eyebrows applied over 4 years ago and absolutely love them. To be honest the pain was minimal but the eyeliner was quite unpleasant so I never had this reapplied and allowed it to fade.

    As glowgirl said, you do need a top-up 4-6weeks after the initial application and I also had two further annual top-ups. Mine are very dark and still are.

    If anyone is West Midlands based and are interested feel free to PM me and I'll l pass on the salon details.

    bustyb293 - thanks for that information, I've been wanting that doing for years as my eyebrows are very fair and thin.

    I have just one teeny criticism though........please refer to your OH as my wife and not the wife. My husband does this and I hate it with a passion, it makes me sound on a par with the house, the car etc.

    Sorry to rant, it's one of my pet hates :D
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!

    Thank you, ok its my wife, not "The Wife" you are right its not good!

    No we did a lot of research, her pigment will fade down towards a nice ashy colour. I know this as we asked so many questions.

    Heidi Worman said she would never use warm tone pigments, and has her own special blend. What we have looked at and seen its not possible to compare other work, its just our opinion as we looked at the subject very deeply. She constantly applies a numbing anaesthetic throughout the whole thing, I asked what she was doing all along. She did not feel anything.

    A nice young girl (19) we were speaking to when we arrived had just had eye-liner top and bottom carried out, she said it was very pleasant, I must say it did look nice, it was like a thin crisp line.




    Thank you
