I'm having permanent make up applied and would like to know what tip, if any, is required?
Thanks

My advice would be don't do it. Not what you are wanting to hear. But think about this....
!. You use the word permanent.
2. As we age our skin does not stay in a permanent state of tightness. Even the area around the eyes sag.
3. If we were meant to have permanent anything we would have got here with eyeliner on and lipstick in place.
Good luck to you and I hope it goes well and I hope you stay young, tawt, beautiful forever.

Is it in a doctor's office?

Oh, boy - all I can think of is Michael Jackson! Don't do anything "permanent"!! That's a scary thing - are you going to a licensed DOCTOR? I believe in dealing with what God gave us to the best of our abilities. My eyebrows have all but disappeared due to white hair - I bought as kit at a local beauty supply chain that allowed me to "bring back" my eyebrows. It took 5 years off of my face, and it hardly cost me a thing!!!

I have to agree with the other guys, too. What happens as you age? Your eyebrows (or whatever) might end up in the wrong place, I've always wondered about that when I hear of folks doing this sort of thing. Not that I think you are wrong, if that is what you want to do, but be sure and ask lots of questions...you need to know what it will look like 10 years from now.

Speaking of eyebrows - you wouldn't beleive how many people ask what I did "new" - new makeup, been out in the sun, WHAT? I swear it's that I have my eyebrows back! It's great!!! I've inherited the Irish feature of not going grey, going WHITE!

Have to quote Beck too. This is too funny. Jeff Foxworthy has a take on hair and aging in men. He says it disappears just to reappear somewhere else. A man goes bald and his nose hair grows or it comes out his ears.
