A Smart Investment

CONGRATULATIONS on choosing a Board Certified Professional. Your technician has undergone a rigorous, written, practical and oral examination by qualified experts in the field of micropigmentation.

Your investment in permanent makeup saves you time and money in the long run. Remember that Rome was not built in a day, and permanent cosmetics may take several sessions of layering in color to achieve your desire result. A conservative approach is best as it is possible to add MORE color, but it is not easy to remove color. Your Board Certified Professional combines experience with judgment and works closely with other professional to maintain up-to-date knowledge and skills.

The sky is the limit when it comes to Permanent Make up. Don’t be fooled by the rumors that black is the color, Ouch! Yuck! Those were the old days, not any more.
