Eyeliner questions.

Does permanent eyeliner hurt?

Most clients feel very little. They often describe it as light scratching or a tickle, and Rachel takes breaks whenever you need one.

Can I wear contacts after permanent eyeliner?

Come to your appointment without contacts and bring your glasses. Keep your contacts out for at least 24 hours afterward.

What is the difference between classic and winged liner?

Classic liner stays along the lash line and costs $500. Winged liner adds a soft flick at the outer corner and costs $550.

Time for a refresh?

Results usually last 1 to 3 years or more. A color refresh brings faded color back, and the price depends on the service and how long it has been since your last visit.
