I love all my permanent makeup. It was the best thing I ever did. Well I say that now after I went to Theresa. I got email notified that people were comenting on this review again so I thought I woukd update you all.
Yes and you are right about the site. I listed the wrong one. Sorry!
I had a very good experience and a very bad experience with permanent makeup. My first experience was fantastic. I had eyebrows done by Theresa in Las Vegas. They were soft and very natural looking. I did not scab or have any healing issues. The actual session or application of the eyebrow tattoo didn't hurt. It felt sort of weird, maybe a bit uncomfortable. I paid about $400 and I was totally happy. I came back for a free retouch about a few weeks later and it went about the same experience. About a year later I decided to get my lips done but I found a cheaper place downtown Vegas. I had such a good result the first time that I was very trusting and with my cut in pay I went for a cheaper provider. First of all the place wasn't a doctors office like I had been to before and it was in a not so great area. They didn't numb me like before and it hurt like hell. I could hardly stand the pain. The girl who did me was rushed and it seemed she had squeezed me in. She was not concerned about my pain as the years rolled down my cheeks. The lips scabbed so badly. They look blotchy and the mauve is blotchy purple. I refuse to go back.
My friend went to my first permanent makeup girl Theresa at her clinic to get her lips done and they are perfect. I asked her about pain and she said she hardly felt it. She scabbed a little bit but not like me. She paid I think $500 and is happy.
So, I went back to Theresa to see if she could fix my cheap lip mess. She said it will be correction and will take 2-3 appointments. The correction price is $700! Ok i already paid $250 at the other place to mess me up and if I get my lips fixed I will have paid $950 total. If I would have just gone to here in the first place I could have saved a ton of time and money not to mention pain.
Ok so I'm an idiot. I found a good girl for permanent makeup and thought it was no big deal to get a cheaper deal elsewhere. My stupidity.
I don't think permanent makeup is bad. I believe that if you go for the biggest savings you are asking for trouble. How many bargain basement cosmetic procedures are actually a good idea?
I will be going back to Theresa to start the fixing process for my lips next week. I really wish I would have put quality before price on this one.
You should check out her clinics site and blog . She is in Las Vegas NV
