No. 2 What are some of the tools I use for permanent make up?

Hi, Me again! So, you read my last blog and now you are thinking about getting some permanent makeup done, but you want to know the nitty-gritty details about the tools that will be used on your face? Well, you have come to the right place again, in this blog I will go over some of the tools I use for permanent makeup treatments so you know what to expect when you come for your treatments.

First things first, let’s talk about the needles. These little guys are the workhorses of the permanent makeup world. They come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and each one is designed for a specific purpose. Here I will go over few of the most common types you might encounter and hopefully dispel any fears you may have about them.

Round needles: These are your basic, all-purpose needles. They are great for shading and colouring larger areas of skin, like your lips or cheeks. They are also the most commonly used needles for traditional tattooing.
Flat needles: These needles have a flat tip, which makes them perfect for creating crisp, clean lines. They are often used for eyeliner and lip liner treatments.
Magnum needles: These needles have a slightly wider tip than round needles, which makes them great for colouring larger areas. They are also good for creating a “soft focus” effect, like with a powdered brow treatment.

Microblading needles: These needles are very fine and have a row of needles at the end. They are used specifically for Microblading, a technique of permanent makeup that creates hair-like strokes to mimic natural brows.

And that’s just the tip of the needle iceberg! There are tons of other specialised needles out there, each with their own unique properties. But don’t worry, I know exactly which one to use for your specific treatment. Now, as we are speaking about needles I think it’s only fair to quickly talk about the big P word. PAIN!

Well, let me tell you, it’s generally not too bad. Pain tolerance can vary from person to person, but most people say it feels like a slight scratching or tingling sensation. But please don’t worry, responsible practitioners such as myself use numbing cream to help make the experience more comfortable. It is worth noting that some people may feel more discomfort than others. If you are someone with a low pain tolerance, you may feel more discomfort than others. Certain areas of the face may be more sensitive than others too, usually areas close to the centre of the face (like the middle of your eyeline or the cupids bow on the lips). So, if you are worried about the pain, I always encourage my clients to please let me know ASAP so I can put your mind at ease and help you feel comfortable before going ahead with any procedure.

Tina Davies pigments offer a wide range of colours and shades that can be used to create natural-looking results, as well as bolder, more dramatic looks. That’s why I love them! So, there you have it, I have outlined some of the tools I use for permanent makeup treatments, but really I have only scratched the surface. Keep an eye out for future blogs where I will go over other essential tools and equipment. I hope I have put your mind at ease by informing you about the “not so scary needles” and enlightened you on the pigments I use. If you would like to come for a free consultation, please get in touch here.

Now that bits out the way let’s talk about the pigments I use. Apart from the skill of your chosen practitioner, Pigment is one of the most important aspects in any permanent makeup treatment. Pigment is the substance that is applied to the skin during the procedure. I personally use Tina Davies pigments. They are made with the best ingredients, so you know they are safe, hypoallergenic and easy to work with. Plus, they are vegan, cruelty-free, and free of any gross chemicals. I know lots of other artists love using them too!

Until next time, Happy beautifying
