Eyebrow tattoo. Any recommendations in London area?

[Barbie1]

15 years ago i trained as a beauty therapist.

We practiced waxing eyebrows on each other...a lot!

Mine have never recovered, I have used almost everything to make them thicker and to fill them in.

I'm moving to a humid country and don't want my eyebrows to slide onto my cheeks by mid day

Whistle stop trip to London planned in June so I want to get something booked ASAP.

Any recommendations?

[swooosh]

I'm considering this and have heard nothing but good about Karen Betts

[Barbie1]

Thanks swooosh ill look into her website.

Can I be nosy and ask what's stopping you?

[Barbie1]

Any more recommendations please?

[WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes]

I keep thinking about it too but haven't found any recommendations for clinics local to me (Hants/Surrey). Also a bit nervous about permanent treatments. Not much chance of eyebrow pencil melting here, more like washed away by rain.

Tracie Giles is the top bod in London

[Barbie1]

Yes! Tracy Giles was the lady I was thinking about, thanks topsi

Fingers crossed she has an appointment free and I'm brave enough to book it

[swooosh]

I haven't done it because
A) price
B) my eyebrows are white blonde, I tweeted another eyebrow 'guru' who specialises in it and she said it sometimes looks bad to have brows tattooed on white blonde as the hair over the top looks a bit odd against the tattooing and you'll still have to tint the hair or powder them in so not saving any time in the mornings etc.

Sorry to (possibly) through a spanner in the works here but does/can this ever look natural ? A girl served me in my local Superdrug the other day and from a distance I thought "wow nice eyebrows". However when I got closer I realised they were tattooed on and it just looked a bit odd. I appreciate that the tattoo will have the shape of a natural eyebrow but it can't really replicate the look of natural hair ? Or did this girl just have really badly tattooed eyebrows ? Educate me

Lady called Claire Smith, Brentwood way. I had mine done in last year and they are fab. Have had so many compliments. Was £250 and was very impressed as I had them done in Kent about 6 years ago and they faded really quickly and was £400 and lady wanted that again for top up when they started fading which I thought was wrong.

I like the idea of the brow blush on her website....

I'm also sat on the fence at the moment, considering this treatment.

[WallyBantersYoniBox]

Madame would you be brave enough to post a pic of just your eyebrows? I'd love to see a really natural effect.

My SIL had the Superdrug ones, but she loves to look "obvious" IYSWIM huge white mane of extensions, fake orange tan so she had the real Scouse Brow look. I think that's what ha put me off.

[Barbie1]

I haven't managed to make the call to chicken

I will sit and go through all the suggestions this evening and will book an appointment.

I hope they look natural

To be honest they can't look any worse than a ton of pencil and powder on them. Or even worse...when they land on your cheeks in the heat

Starting to get slightly scared.

Heidi Worman?

[Madamecastafiore]

I can send you a picture of mine if you pm me.

Am sitting here trying to take pictures on my phone without looking sectionable! Please forgive the under eye bags and hideous skin, pregnancy hormones are not making me look my best!

[WallyBantersYoniBox]

I have pm'd. I'm sure you look blooming.

I used to look a lot better than I felt in my pregnancy pics.

What was the pain like?

[Madamecastafiore]

Am in bed at mo on phone as can't sleep. Pain wasn't too bad really. Claire put numbing gel on and all went swimmingly.

And NO the blooming bit has yet to come, am at the parasite has taken over my body and is draining my life force bit!

Will pm you back when get up.

[WallyBantersYoniBox]

I've sent you an email Madame. Hope you managed some sleep!

I used to find that I'd gotten into that warm cosy place of preslumber, only to have to get up and go to the toilet.

At least it's Sunday and you can hopefully have a lie in.

[Madamecastafiore]

Did you get them? Look a proper munter but have nice brows!

[WallyBantersYoniBox]

Sorry, my Internet was down, had to get DH to fix it.

They look fabulous. Very natural. I have had to go "nude" hair wise because of my advancing premature grey (not so premature anymore), so it's good to know you can experiment to get the colours right.

They look totally natural, I'd never have guessed. I'm going to get in contact definitely. I'm over in June so will be making an appointment then.

And you look well.

Thanks Madame x

[Madamecastafiore]

Thank you, that's very kind.

I hope they turn out perfect for you.

Claire is really nice and made me feel very comfortable and confident in her.

Think her website is

Permanenakeupbyclaire.co.uk

[WallyBantersYoniBox]

Great, thanks! (quite excited now!)

[Barbie1]

Madame can I have an email too? Pretty please? Ill pm you.

Wally, I'm getting them done in June when next back in the uk...ill let you go first though

[Barbie1]

I can't get Claire's web page to load

[Madamecastafiore]

Yes of course.

[Madamecastafiore]

I'll PM you both her telephone number.
