Eyebrow Tatoo

When I was in 6th grade.. the "in" thing was to shave your eyebrows and draw them in.. (gosh i was SO stupid!) lol..

well of course my eyebrows didn't really grow back.. and i always had to shade them in.. and i got sooo sick and tired of it.. and always having to make sure they are the same on each side lol..

that I got my eyebrows tattoo'd! and it's the best thing i think i've done yet LOL..

takes a load off in the morning.. cause i already have brows! lol..

I got them done the same time my cousin was getting a retouch before she moved to Japan. my mom and a lot of my coworkers have done them..

and im glad i did! anyone here have tatoo'd eyebrows? lol

That is indeed correct. My mom got her eyeliner tattoo'd and she said the whole time she wanted to kill the lady doing it LOL..

then again, the person who did my eyebrows is my cousins mother in law.. and she tattoo'd her eyeliner herself

i dont think i can get that done.. only because i'm always changing the way i put eyeliner.. and plus.. i dont think i can stand that much pain LOL.. but we'll see maybe later down the road

gosh.. what us women go through to look pretty lol.

My cousin had eyeliner tattooed on and she said it hurt really bad! I don't think that I need eyeliner bad enough to go through the pain and I think that I'll keep the eyebrows that I have!!!!!!

When I was much younger, my family went camping. We camped all the time. Anyway, I was lighting the lamp and it flared up and burnt my eyebrows and melted a little bit of my hair. Didn't really burn my skin or anything. Well since then, my eyebrows have been so skimpy, with just a few hairs popping in. I would love to have my eyebrows tattooed on, but know nothing about it, so here are some questions.........

1. Is it very painful for the eyebrows to be tattooed on?
2. How long does it take?
3. How bad will it look at 60, 70 or 80 years old?
4. Who do you go to...a tattoo artist or a make-up artist?
5. How do you go about finding someone competent to do it?

I am really interested in this because I too, have to draw them on or fill them in a little bit. In the summer, well anytime really, I sweat and then they end up being wiped off. I do have eyebrows, just very thin and far apart.

My mom had permanent eyeliner, permanent lipliner, and permanent eyebrows tatoo'd on. She said the eyeliner hurt soooo bad, but the eyebrows and lipliner did not hurt too bad and she continues to get the eyebrows touched up. She has not done the lipliner again but she has done the eyeliner a time or two more. But the eyeliner hurts so bad that she says she probably won't do it again.

It takes a couple of hours to get eyebrows tatoo'd on.

It doesn't really look bad as you age bc it fades and you have to get it touched up if you want to continue having it.

The lady who did my mom's permanent makeup also does electrolysis. My mom, me, and my 2 sisters have gone to her for electrolysis (permanent hair removal) for YEARS! I know my sisters and me have been going to her for 10 years for permanent hair removal (we all have our entire faces hair-free and our eyebrows are shaped and we got the hair on our fingers and toes removed) and I know my mom has been going to her for longer than that. So my mom knows she is compitent and knew she would do a good job with the permanent makeup before she got it done.

I have very few hairs as well, so i really needed this. I got tired of drawin my eyebrows and them being uneven.

1. if you've gotten a tattoo, it's exactly what that feels like... if not.. im not going to lie, there is pain involved, but it's not that bad... before you get it done, they put this numbing cream on it, so it's less painful.

2. my eyebrows only took 1 1/2 hours. my cousin who was getting a touch up just took 30 mins.

3. i think it fades with the skin, or i don't know if i make sense, but it blends with it well i guess as you age. my co worker is in her 60's and it still looks nice.. she had them done 12 years prior.

4. you can go to an esthetician to get it done.

5. i think you have to do research on the person, ask to see their work.. stuff like that.. i was lucky that my cousins mom in law is a perfectionist and shes really awesome and has been doing this for so many years. i trusted her and i loved my results.

My mom has had it done. Over the years, though, they've faded to a dark olive green.
