Choosing the Right Permanent Makeup
Artist
Choose your technician carefully by considering their
training, experience, and examples of their previous
work. Check for licensing, certifications, and be sure
they have liability insurance. Ask for references from
previous patients.
You should never shop for price in this matter.
This is your face and a bargain price isn't a bargain
if the end result is less than satisfactory. There are
many technicians who have had inadequate training who
are performing these services. The regulation is so
minimal in most states that consumers need to educate
themselves before deciding on where to go.
Permanent Make up is truly an art, not just a process.
Your goal should be to find a permanent make up artist,
not just a technician. Your results will be only as
good as the artist you choose.
You want natural soft cosmetics that enhance your face
without being too bold or over done. Color knowledge
is one of the most important factors to a quality application
of permanent cosmetics. Just look at all the regular
cosmetic on the market to see how important color is.
You want an artist who understands skin tones and colors
that will enhance your face.
Techniques vary for different results so make sure
you ask if the artist is capable of giving you the look
you want. You want an artist who can do corrections,
alterations and camouflage. It makes a big difference
in the talent and experience of who performs the procedure.
Look for someone who will give you soft, natural results.
