Depending on your skin, health and if you come for touchup refreshers, your semi-permanent tattoo will last from 2-5 years.

Here are some factors will cause your semi-permanent tattoo to fade faster:

• Oily skin

• Retinol or Vitamin C

• Iron deficiency

• Sun exposure

• Exfoliants

• Exposure to salt water

Getting semi-permanent makeup is slightly uncomfortable but completely bearable. The tattooing process lasts about an hour.  We use an excessive amount of numbing and our technique is very gentle. If you are nervous about pain, you may take 1-2 paracetamol before your appointment (absolutely no blood thinners i.e. ibuprofen)

No, we do not touch up work done by other artists or go over existing tattoos. We believe in providing our clients with the best possible results, which starts with a clean canvas and our own work.

Yes, however, before the first Lip Blushing session we would recommend booking a few Lip Neutralising appointments to cancel out the cool tones. This means the initial color we tattoo MUST be orange! If we are to tattoo any other colour you risk darkening your lips further or having absolutely no results at all. When healed at 6 weeks, most if not all of the darkness in your lips will be covered and your lips will have a nudey-pink even tone. Note that results cannot be guaranteed and lightening or evening out dark lips may take a few sessions. If you are unsure if you have dark or cool toned lips you can send us a picture of your lips in natural light.

A touch-up appointment is required for all clients following their initial tattoo session and can be scheduled at the end of your first visit. During this appointment, we refine the shape and colour of your tattoo, deepen pigment where needed, and perfect any areas that may have healed unevenly. Touch-ups play a vital role in enhancing both the longevity and the overall elegance of your results.

We recommend scheduling your touch-up no sooner than 4 weeks and no later than 6 weeks after your initial session. Please note that touch-ups are an additional charge, and fees may increase if a significant amount of time has passed since your initial appointment.

Yes, you can have lip blush if you have lip filler. Lip filler does not interfere with the process of tattooing lips or the results in any way. Note that lip filler and lip blush appointments MUST be at least 4 weeks apart from each other.

This procedure can trigger cold sores for carriers of the herpes simplex virus. To prevent cold sores from flaring up it is recommended to go to your family doctor and get Zovirax or another antiviral medication prescribed to take 5 days prior procedure, the day of, and 5 days after. Note that a cold sore outbreak can alter the healed results of the tattoo. This is very important.

No! This is also very important and something to take note of before booking your appointment. Plan your day so that it is a no gym and coffee day. Do not consume any caffeine or alcohol for 24 hours before your appointment. This includes coffee, energy drinks, pre-workout and tea. These act as a blood thinners, causing you to potentially bleed during the process. This will stop the cosmetic tattoo pigment from holding in the skin during the tattoo process and make you less likely to sit still.
