FAQs & Policies 💭
How should I prepare for my permanent makeup appointment?
no caffeine or alcohol 24 hours before – i know, i know BUT they can thin your blood and make you more sensitive.
avoid ibuprofen, aspirin, or other blood thinners for 24-48 hours before (unless prescribed by your doc).
no Botox or filler 2 weeks before or after your appointment – timing is everything, and we don’t want things shifting around.
no retinol, acids, or exfoliants near the area for at least 7 days – we want your skin calm, not spicy.
don’t wax, tint, or do anything wild to your brows/lips the week of your appointment. I’ll handle everything!
stay hydrated and moisturized – healthy skin = better results.
skip the gym the day of – sweat and freshly tattooed skin don’t mix well.
reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns — I’m here to ease your mind!
IMPORTANT if you’re getting lip blush:
if you’ve ever had a cold sore (even just one time), you must get a prescription antiviral (like Valtrex) from your doctor and start taking it at least 1 week prior to your appointment. Lip blush can trigger an outbreak, and we don’t want anything messing with your healing!
What would prevent me from getting permanent makeup?
you’re pregnant or breastfeeding – your body is doing enough already! come see me after baby!
you’re under 18 – even with parental consent, i legally can’t perform PMU on minors.
you’re on accutane or have taken it within the past 6-12 months – it thins the skin and affects healing big time.
active cold sores or skin infections – we need the area fully healed before we can work on it.
if you’ve had Botox or filler in the treatment area within the last 2 weeks – we need everything settled before tattooing.
blood disorders, uncontrolled diabetes, or other medical conditions that affect healing or blood clotting – always consult with your doctor first!
if you’re prone to keloids or hypertrophic scarring – PMU might not be a safe option for you.
if you’re currently sunburned, healing from a peel, or had laser recently – your skin needs to be calm, not crispy!
How long is the healing process?
for brows:
days 1–3: they’ll look bold, sharp, and defined – don’t panic, this is part of the magic!
days 4–10: you’ll start seeing flaking and peeling. it might feel itchy or patchy, but don’t pick!!
week 2–4: things might look too light or uneven – this is the ghost phase — totally normal.
week 6: you’re fully healed and ready for your perfecting session (aka your touch-up)!
for lip blush:
days 1–3: your lips will look bright + juicy – a little swollen or tight at first.
days 4–7: mild flaking or peeling happens. lips usually flake for a few days, not as long as brows.
week 2–3: color softens and settles into its final shade.
week 6: you’re fully healed and ready for your touch-up, if needed!
everybody heals a little differently depending on your skin, immune system, and how well you follow aftercare. don’t worry – i’ll walk you through all of it and send you home with aftercare instructions (and moral support 🫶)
Do you offer payment plans?
yes I do! i know permanent makeup is quite the investment, and i want it to be as stress-free and accessible as possible for you!
payment plans are available and can be customized based on what you need. you’ll pay a deposit to secure your appointment, and the rest can be split into smaller, manageable payments.
if you’re interested in setting one up, just reach out to me directly before booking – i’ll walk you through everything and help you find the best option for you! (954)292-8360
Cancellation & Late Policy
Please know that when you book an appointment, that time is reserved exclusively for you. When you cancel or reschedule your appointment last minute, I lose the opportunity to fill your spot and another client loses the opportunity to receive a service. I understand schedule adjustments are sometimes necessary; therefore I respectfully request at least 48 hours notice prior to cancelling or rescheduling your appointment.
If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment with less than 48 hours notice, you will be required to pay a new deposit/cancellation fee in order to rebook as deposits/cancellation fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.
If you do not show up to your appointment you will forfeit your deposit and be unable to book any future appointments.
While I will make every effort to accommodate late arrivals, if you are more than 10 minutes late, your service may need to be rescheduled and you will be required to pay a cancellation fee. Please text me as soon as possible if you know you will be late to your appointment.
