Save $ money by coloring your own brows


Color your own brows...it's easy!

My friend came over for a 'girls' weekend---of course, we did facials, manicures, brow waxing and tweezing, Yoga and MORE. When I finished shaping my friends brows, she then brought out a box of "Just for men". Here's her secret I absolutely love and want to share with you.

If you pay to get your brows colored, here's how you can save money. Simply purchase the right color of "Just for Men". It comes in 6 different color choices. Also buy one children's toothbrush to apply or you can use a brow brush to apply the color. ("Just for men" brush-in color gel comes with a brush but my friend didn't like that one.)

Follow directions as if you were a guy wanting to color your hair but apply to your brows.

I hope you will try this money-saving secret...and share it with your girlfriends who need to color their brows, too!

The benefits of Permanent Cosmetics for Alopecia


My first experience with an Alopecia client was overwhelmingly emotional. To understand, from her prospective, all of the insecurities that comes with being diagnosed with this condition. When she was told she had Alopecia, she was shocked. She had to get used to people starring at her, she started wearing wigs, and she felt she wasn’t a good Mother anymore or a beautiful wife. So much was going on in her mind. She was 40 when she started losing her hair.

I was thrilled with the fact that she chose me to tattoo her brows and eye liner. The benefits of having both procedures helped her feel normal again. She was so excited to finally have the opportunity to have brows. Since brows draw attention to the eyes…she felt lost without them. Now that she has eyeliner, too. Her eyes are defined and beautiful.

When we finished the procedure, we both shared tears; her tears of happiness to look normal again and my tears of absolute joy being able to help her. Wow, what an experience. (I have to say that when I help women with Medical issues, it’s extremely fulfilling).

Permanent makeup does wonders for Alopecia!
