The business says it has more than 25 years of experience in permanent makeup, and its owner, Nora, has worked in the field since 1995. The studio is licensed by the LA County Health Department and describes its work as built on safety, precision and artistry in micropigmentation.
Eyebrows are the studio's main focus. The 3D hair stroke technique, also listed as microblading, is designed for sparse or thinning brows and is described as smudge-proof. Men's brows are offered as a separate service. Nora draws the brow shape for the client to approve before any work begins, and she may cancel if the client is not ready to decide. Eyeliner is offered for the upper or lower lid or for both lids, and lash enhancement darkens the base of the lashes. Lip liner and full lip color are also available, along with eyeshadow effects and touch-ups for existing permanent makeup.
The studio also offers paramedical tattooing for areola restoration and scar camouflage, a roughly three-hour appointment for clients recovering from surgery or injury. Small services include beauty marks and skin tag removal, which is quoted separately. Most eyeliner work takes two to three sessions and lip work takes one to three. Touch-ups are recommended, with an eyebrow touch-up suggested within the first six months and a refresher for hair stroke brows every one to three years. Clients with darker skin may find hair strokes and eyeliner look less defined or dark.
Deposits are required at booking, within 24 hours, and they are non-refundable but apply toward the procedure cost. Rescheduling needs at least 24 hours' notice, and clients arriving more than 15 minutes late must reschedule. Clients who had permanent makeup done elsewhere pay full price for their first visit. Children under 18 are not allowed in procedure rooms, and one adult guest may come along. Financing options are available. Pre-care and post-care instructions are published on the website. Results vary from client to client, and the studio does not guarantee them.
Nora works with a focus on precision and safety and keeps training in current techniques.
