My scar makes me feel insecure

Hiding a scar by permanently camouflaging it will help you feel so much better about yourself...but, be cautious. It takes time, money and a lot of patience! You might have to go through one or many color changes during the process! It all depends on how YOUR SKIN heals the color.

Sometimes it's better to LEAVE IT ALONE and resort to covering it with makeup. If you need help with color choices, I'll be able to assist you at my studio.

If you are willing to go the extra mile and stay with it until the end, it may bring back your confidence.

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!
