Color Corrections on Permanent Makeup

Color corrections are an essential part of the permanent makeup process. As with all tattoos, fading over the years does occur, and is completely natural (& beneficial) to do so.

Ideally, touch-ups should be done approximately every 10-15 years for eyebrows, and every 3-5 years for eyeliner. These time frames are very generalized, as all skin is different. Depending on environmental factors, and your body's chemistry, tattoos will fade at different lengths of time. It is important to educate yourself on the way tattoos will wear in the skin over your lifetime. 

Luckily, corrective cosmetics is available, and is often a simple application. If your permanent eyebrows have faded into a base color of either purple, red, or blue, this is very common, and in most cases can be easily corrected. It is ideal that permanent makeup does eventually fade - as this allows the technician to make changes to the color & shape, as your face changes over time.

Talking one-on-one with your technician is always the best way to be 100% comfortable in knowing exactly what to expect when it comes to permanent cosmetics.
