Never had a tattoo before but since I've had injections in my face and breast augmentations I figured I could handle the pain. It wasn't bad, just the first pass feels like a ragged razor blade and it is more painful on the outer areas where your skin is thinner.
Dave the tattoo tech was great at just doing a tiny bit at a time and letting me look at it after every pass and point out where I wanted more color. I went super thin at first bc I wanted to be careful not to overdue it since it is permanant. Have had a few touch ups and couldn't be happier. They don't sweat off at the gym or smear lol. It saves time and is one less thing to worry about daiy.

Dave was patient and took his time and let me go at a pace that was comfortable for me. Gwen drew on some brows beforehand that she thought would look good but they were much thicker and bushier looking than I usually go for so I wiped most of it off and just showed Dave some pics of how I drew them daily.

Yes, even after multiple touch ups, I noticed besides the fading, it has a subtle orange hue in a few spots that you can see if you are examining my face very close up (yes, I know it is kinda obsessive, but I can't help my OCD with my face!!). I am indeed worried about the scarring issue you brought up which is a good one so am not wanting to tattoo it anymore.
Thanks Tena, they have since faded somewhat and I may get them touched up bc I like the darker filled in look. It's so worth it though to not ever worry about drawing them or running or smudging when I sweat!
I use Latisse on my lashes so that they are strong and long enough to hold my eyelash extensions which are individually bonded to each lash. Another worthwhile investment-I just comb them periodically and now rarely wear liner or shadow anymore!
Hi Scottsdale,
Per usual thank you for another fantastic review and of course pictures. I'm glad you did a little at a time and then will go back for touch ups. The community seems to find that the best way of doing it. Since you had such a great experience are you considering doing other permanent makeup?
Thanks,
