A doctor friend of mine told me that tattoos darken with age. I'm thinking about getting my eyebrows tattooed, but don't want dark eyebrows when my hair turns gray. Any thoughts?

Answer: Natural pigments lighten with time
If your esthetician or nurse uses natural pigments, they will actually lighten with time. In fact, permanent makeup is probably a misnomer. It is actually semi-permanent makeup, as it will fade sufficiently to require touch up in about 5 to 10 years.

Answer: Permanent Eyelbrow Tattoos "Permanent" may be a misnomer for permanent eyebrow tattoos. Depending on the pigment, the eyebrow tattoos tend to fade with time. If not done correctly they can also change color. DO NOT get BLACK tattoos for the eyebrows, they almost always turn to BLUE! Go to an experienced medical aesthetician or someone certified in permanent eyeline/tattooing and ask to see photos or even talk with other patients.
