FAQs

Lash Extensions           

 

How long do they last?

They can last indefinitely with routine re-lashes

 

Do they look natural?

Yes. Extensions can be applied to look as natural or dramatic as you will like. Classic extensions should be applied to one natural lash creating a seamless attachment. Volume extensions are 2D-6D bouquets that are super light and give a plush look. Lashes comes in different lengths, thicknesses, and curls so you create a look that best meets your lifestyle.

 

If I don’t have natural lashes can I get lash extensions?

​Unfortunately, you will not be eligible for eyelash extensions because they are applied to the natural lash.

 

How do I prepare for my appointment?

Be on time, arrive with clean eyes this means no eye makeup, eyelash glue, eyeliner, mascara, etc.

 

 

Microblading                    

 

Do you use a tattoo gun or machine?

Microblading is different from traditional tattooing in that no electrical machinery is used. I use a hand tool to insert the pigment into the skin in fine, feathered lines that mimic hair strokes.

 

Are you licensed and certified?

Yes, I am a licensed tattoo artist in Georgia. I was trained and certified in eyebrow embroidery Artistry Brow & The Look By Joi.

 

How long does the procedure take?

The procedure itself takes approximately one hour. However, on your first visit, please expect your appointment to last about 2 hours, which will include the consultation and pre-draw.

 

How do you select the color and shape?

During your consultation, we will discuss your preferences. Together, we will pre-draw the shape and design of your brows. I will not begin the tattooing process until you have approved the color and design.

 

Does it hurt?

A topical numbing cream is applied to the brow area prior to the procedure to minimize discomfort. Most clients say that the tattooing process feels similar to having their eyebrows threaded or waxed.

 

Is there any downtime?

You can go right back to work after the procedure. However, your brow area may feel tender and slightly swollen for a few days. You may resume exercise after 3 days. I advise against swimming or drenching your brows with water for one week, until your brows are fully healed.

 

How long does it take to heal?

Your brows should be fully healed within 7-10 days.

 

What will my brows look while they are healing?

The tattoo will look up to 30% darker and larger during the first week, until it fully heals. During the healing process, the tattoo may form a light scab or crust. This is not very noticeable and can be concealed with brow gel or powder after 3 days until the scab fully comes off in 7-10 days.

 

What aftercare products should I use?

Janice will supply you with an aftercare balm to apply while the tattoo heals. You should also buy baby wipes to cleanse the tattooed area for the first week.

 

How do I prolong the life of my eyebrow tattoo?

To keep your tattoo looking its best, avoid getting it wet until it is completely healed. Always wear sunscreen SPF 30 or higher on the tattooed area when you are exposed to the sun or it will fade much faster. Avoid exfoliating the tattooed area and never wax your brows, as it can fade the tattoo. Don't apply skincare with retinol, acids, acne medications, or use scrubs near your tattoo.

 

How often will I need touch-ups and how much do they cost?

Touch up 6-8 weeks after the initial procedure to perfect the shape, color, and hair stokes. Your tattoo will not fade completely for up to 2 years. I recommend scheduling touch-ups at least once a year to keep the color fresh. Touch-ups will cost $75-$250, depending on how long you wait between appointments.
