Microblading & permanent makeup
From natural hair-stroke brows to paramedical camouflage — explore the treatments our artists perform every day at our West Los Angeles studio.

Microblading & Shading
The most widely sought-after brow treatment available! Microblading uses a blade to craft lifelike hair strokes, resulting in exceptionally realistic eyebrows.

Lip Blushing
Suitable for all individuals! Lip blushing involves the use of a tattoo machine to infuse the client’s desired shade into their natural lip tone. Once healed, it creates a soft lip tint.

Powder / Ombré Brows
This method utilizes a tattoo machine to produce a gentle shadow on the skin, emulating the appearance of powdered makeup. This can be made more dramatic depending on the client’s desire.

Semi-Permanent Eyeliner
Great for those looking to cut their makeup routine in half! Can be done in between just the lashes or elongated into a cat eye depending on the client’s desire.

Inkless Stretch Marks
This procedure involves using a tattoo machine & an inkless serum to improve skin texture, boost collagen production, and fade discoloration.

Lash Extensions
Unlike false eyelashes, where the strip or individual lashes are applied to the skin, lash extensions are attached directly to the lash itself. The results are more lush, dense lashes that enhance the appearance of the eyes.

Scalp Micropigmentation
Suitable for all individuals! SMP uses a fine needle to recreate hair follicles. Can be done to add density to thinning hair, cover scars from transplants/surgeries, or recreate the hairline for balding clients.

Scar Camouflage
Scar camouflage is a great way to help disguise scars! Can be done on scars that are lighter or darker than the client’s natural skin tone.
