Pretty Please Studio Permanent Makeup Artistry

  When Chemotherapy Steals Your Brows (Rude.) Cancer already takes enough from a man. Your energy. Your time. Your patience. And then—just to be extra disrespectful—it sometimes takes your hair too. Head hair, body hair, and yes… eyebrows. Most men know the deal with head hair: it may grow back, it may come back curlier, straighter, darker, lighter, or with a whole new personality. Brows, though? Brows are divas. Those hair follicles are far more delicate, and they don’t always bounce back the way we hope. The result? Sparse brows. Missing tails (the ends of the brows). Or brows that look like they quietly retired without telling you. Why Brows Matter More Than You Think You might not have paid much attention to your eyebrows before—but once they’re gone or thinned out, wow. Brows frame your eyes. They give you expression. They keep you from looking permanently surprised, tired, or vaguely confused.  And something that we don't think about...Eyebrows break up the forehea...

  Hey Guys—Let’s Talk...big sister here! Brow lacks volume, color and shape Alright, I’m going to say the quiet part out loud—because I care. 😉 If you’re a man 45 and over, chances are you’ve noticed some changes . Maybe it crept up slowly, maybe it felt like it happened overnight—but you’ve definitely clocked it in the mirror. The greying hair. Saggy eyelids. That puffiness under your eyes that didn’t used to be there. Brows thinning out… or turning gray. Lips losing their pink tone and looking a little thinner. Wrinkles showing up around the eyes, face, and neck like they pay rent. You notice it. Men always do. What most men don’t do? Talk about it. You’re not venting to your buddies at the bar about eyebrow hair loss. You’re probably not bringing it up in the locker room. Some men talk to their wives or girlfriends—but a lot of you just quietly live with the disappointment and keep moving. And let me tell you something lovingly honest: suffering in silence doesn’t ...

  Before and After Permanent Makeup Eyebrows Microblading, Nano Blading, Ombre, Softap and Rotary machines. Permanent Makeup — short guide to the benefits, the concerns, and the right questions to ask an Cosmetic Tattoo Artist. Permanent makeup ( eyebrows, eyeliner, lip blushing ) can save time, restore symmetry, and subtly refresh your face — when it’s done well it looks like you , not like a mask. Several tattooing modalities exist (microblading, nano blading, Softap , ombre, and rotary-machine cosmetic tattooing). All can produce natural results; the difference often comes down to the artist’s skill, color choice, and technique — not just the tool. Common fears and concerns: “Will it look fake or too harsh?” Choose an artist whose portfolio shows the natural style you want. Ask about color theory and how they match pigments to your skin tone. “Does it hurt?” Most clients report mild discomfort; topical numbing prior and during the procedure is standard. Expect mild ten...

The Magic of Permanent Makeup Permanent makeup has become one of the most popular beauty solutions for people who want to look naturally refreshed without the daily work of applying cosmetics. When done well, permanent makeup doesn’t look like makeup at all—it simply enhances the features you already have. Eyebrows, eyeliner, and lip blushing are the core trio, each adding subtle definition that creates a more youthful, polished appearance. Eyebrows: The Biggest Age-Reverser If there’s one feature that turns back the clock the fastest, it’s the eyebrows. Sparse, uneven, or thin brows can make the face look tired or washed out. Permanent brow techniques—whether created with microblading , Softap, or a rotary machine—restore shape, fullness, and symmetry. The result is a lifted, refreshed look that frames the eyes and softens the entire face. Lips: Soft Color and Freshness Lip blushing adds sheer, natural color and definition to the lips, making them look fuller and more youthful w...

Jee Kim, Permanent Makeup Artist Microblading can give you beautiful, natural-looking brows — but sometimes the healed results appear too light or even grey . If this has happened to you, there are several common reasons why your microbladed brows may not heal as you expected. Microbladed brows heal too light Common Reasons Why Microblading Heals Too Light Pigment Choice- Too Light Your artist may have selected a pigment shade that was too light for your skin undertone. Always discuss your desired healed color — pigments heal about 30% to 40% lighter than when freshly done.   Microblading Needles Too Thin (Nano Blading) Using ultra-fine needles can create delicate strokes, but they may not implant enough pigment into the skin. Thicker needles can sometimes improve pigment saturation and longevity.  For more visible strokes, consider permanent makeup with SofTap. The Skin Is Too Thin or Mature Thin or mature skin doesn’t hold pigment as well. Younger...

  Why Men’s Skincare Matters—The earlier you start, the better. Men are discovering permanent makeup, microblading and nano brows to restore definition around their eyes.  With age, their brow hairs are lighter in color, eyebrows are getting thinner, sparse, and have no shape.  Their lashes are lighter and thinning out too.   As a Permanent Makeup Artist , while designing their new eyebrows, I ask them a simple question.  What is your daily skin care routine?  Most common answer: I wash my face with soap morning and night.  Ta Dah!!!  That’s the jist of their routine.   It’s Not Just Vanity—It’s Vitality.  Looking rugged is no longer in, unless you're rangling cattle. For decades, skincare has been branded as feminine—but the truth is, healthy skin is not gendered. For men in their 30s and 40s, developing a solid skincare routine isn’t just about looking good. It’s about preserving the health, texture, and resilience of your ...
