I have a question about permanent make-up. Since ever I have very thin and little visible eyebrows. I was thinking doing permanent make-up on my brows. Has anyone undergone permanent make-up? What it is like? Painful? Expensive? Where did you do it?
Pls, share your information and experience!

Hi!
I have normal eyebrows and never underwent such treatment, BUT I was watching show, where women were having permanent makeup done, actually permanent eyebrows done. I though this permanent makeup is done with tattooing only, but this is not true, especially when talking about permanent eyebrows.
All was happening in plastic surgeon’s office. Women wanted to have more expressed eyebrows and what exactly was done there? Doctor took few hair from her scalp and transplanted them to the eyebrow area. I was amazed! It sounded totally logical! Why would someone use tattoo practice to have more prominent eyebrows if your own hair can be used for that! Btw, it looked very natural! I was really paying attention if the appearance was natural after the procedure- and it was!
I guess it is best if you check that information with plastic surgeon, and perhaps professional can advise you what to do or can recommend a college.
Good luck!

my sister had permanent eyebrows with transplatation done. it looks pretty natural, much better than before. She had uneven eyebrows, for that reason her face (if you paid attentition) looked asymmetrical. She wanted to do that with her eyebrows for a long time.
