Having lost my eyebrows to Alopecia, I've spent the last 2-3 years applying eyebrows before I would leave the house each morning. Work or weekend. Minimum 1/2 hour to use template to apply make-up base, use brow pencil to set outline with strokes, finish off with powder to fill, lightly brush so they didn't look caked on. And then there were the days when one would really be crooked and I'd have to start over again...and the very hot days when they would just melt down my face.
I started to look into permanent make-up a year or so ago, and until I found Julia, had not seen any work that I wanted on my face. Light skin and hair, ash tones - I wanted subtle. When I found Julia's portfolio samples online, I knew I had found the right person do my eyebrows (and I decided to do the top eyelash enhancer as my lashes had thinned).
I am 1 month into having a face again, just had my booster session and couldn't be happier. I wake up and am not reluctant to look in a mirror - I leave the house confident that I look normal, knowing I won't inadvertently rub brows off during the day. The natural brow line is nicer than I've had for many years! The very few sporadic hairs that still exist give the whole look total believability. The eyelash enhancer is a special extra perk that I gave myself & am very glad I included it! I'm only sorry I didn't this sooner. Julia is an amazingly sensitive artist, following natural brow line and working with skin tone for compatible palette. Carolee has been most supportive and helpful with even the smallest questions.
Thank you both so very much!
