These services are only available to existing clients of Permetika. ​If you've never been our client, you must schedule a NEW procedure. (This is customary among all permanent makeup artists & businesses).
​

If you have old permanent makeup that just needs a follow-up session, your previous Artist should honor a follow-up price.

EMERGENCY PIGMENT REMOVAL $500
​NOTE: If you wait TOO LONG (over 12-24+ hours) WE CANNOT HELP because the healing process will be too far advanced and could create unnecessary scarring.
-
If you're unhappy with your BRAND-NEW PMU - for whatever reason, I MAY be able to help, but you only have TWENTY-FOUR HOURS (preferably less) to act - from the time the color was implanted!
​
-
Emergency removal is not necessary if color is the only problem. As long as the shape is good, color correction can help make things look better!
​
-
Most all new permanent cosmetics appear too dark and scary at first due to pigment oxidation and inflammation. The color will significantly lighten during the healing process as the excess color flakes off & inflammation diminishes.
​
-
If I am unable to perform corrective services, I will refer you to a laser specialist. PLEASE TEXT US for more information: 713-443-8999
-
THIS REMOVAL PROCESS IS ONLY USED IN AN EXTREME EMERGENCY. In most cases, its best to let the permanent makeup heal - then adjust color and shape, as needed, in about 3 months. ​
​
-
This is REMOVAL of Pigment ONLY and DOES NOT include any application of new color. different than a normal correction. . .
​
-
If you're unhappy with your BRAND-NEW PMU due to shape, asymmetry, color, thickness, etc. we MAY be able to help, but you only have TWENTY-FOUR HOURS (preferably less) to act - from the time the color was implanted! This definitely requires a phone call -or- an in-person consultation to determine the PROPER PLAN OF ACTION.
-
This removal process REMOVES pigment only and is different than a normal correction.
​​
-
This definitely requires a phone call at least and a series of photos to determine the PROPER PLAN OF ACTION.
​​
-
NOTE: If you wait TOO LONG (over 12-24+ hours) WE CANNOT HELP because the healing process will be too far advanced and could create unnecessary scarring.
​​
-
Emergency removal is not necessary if color is the only problem. As long as the shape is good, color correction can help make things look better! ​
​
-
Most new permanent cosmetics proceedures appear too dark and scary at first due to pigment oxidation, redness and inflammation. So if on day two of your healing process, you get SCARED... please just be patient. You are just seeing the result of swelling, redness and inflammation from the healing process. Don't worry, be patient and know that things will settle down and start to look nice, very soon!.

​
WITH ANY PERMANENT MAKEUP PROCEDURE . . .
HEALED RESULTS WILL VARY FROM PERSON TO PERSON AND CANNOT BE GUARANTEED. This is because we all have different physical, emotional and biological differences - as well as varying EXPECTATIONS! For this reason, some people will require less work, while others - but we never know what K
Knowing upfront, that we have a conservative approach, should give you a sense of comfort and the confidence to proceed.
​
Be prepared to stick with (and trust) the process through to the end as each session creates the next layer of art which will advance us slowly toward your ultimate goals.
Some people will simply need more work than others. IF YOU do not see the value in playing it safe, we would prefer that you find another company/artist who believes the way you do as our ideals and goals should be in harmony.
​
​
​
OTHER HELPFUL TIPS:
​​​​
-
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH OUR CONSERVATIVE APPROACH, WE MAY NOT BE THE RIGHT ARTISTIC TEAM FOR YOU.

​​​
If you schedule Permanent Cosmetics with anyone other than Connie:
​​​
Always request a consultation and ask to view photos of the Artist's work PRIOR to booking an appointment to make sure your style aligns with your artist of choice. JUST BECAUSE A PERSON IS TRAINED BY CONNIE DOES NOT MEAN THEIR STYLE MATCHES HERS. It takes years to master this craft and all results will vary from person to person.
​​​
Please remember that artistic styles differ and skill levels will vary from artist to artist, so make sure that you meet with your preferred artist either by phone or by consultation to make sure you have an opportunity to connect and view their before and after pics. It's very important that you like their style of work.
​​​
In addition to that, various SKIN types may also present a variety of different tones and textures that may be a challenge to less experienced artists. For these reasons, our team knows that they can call Connie for help at any time.
​​​
Please remember... We perform more on a conservative level since THERE IS NO WAY TO GUARANTEE HOW YOUR SKIN WILL HOLD COLOR. Therefore, MULTIPLE SESSIONS may be required to reach your desired level of color.​
​​​
FOLLOW-UP SESSIONS should be made with the same artist if possible but can be booked with another PERMETIKA ARTIST if your original artist is not available. ​
​​​
​Before booking... please read the following information:
​​​
AT LEAST 1 WEEK PRIOR TO YOUR APPOINTMENT . . . BE SURE TO READ THE PLAN AHEAD, PRE/POST CARE PAGE.
​​​
As you read, make notes and set reminders on your phone to let you know when to stop and start taking certain products... Like ARNICA MONTANA!
​​​
READ OUR POLICIES PAGE. IF YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE WITH OUR PROCESSES, WE WELCOME YOU AS OUR CLIENT & FRIEND!
​​​
BOOKING FEES OF 50% ARE REQUIRED IN ORDER TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. Remaining balance is due at the time of your appointment.
​​​
BOOKING FEES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE.
​​​
A 5 DAY NOTICE is required to change your appointment date. This is necessary as a courtesy to other clients who need time to prepare.
​​​
PRICES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE.
​​​
NO-SHOW APPOINTMENTS WILL FORFEIT THE BOOKING FEE. To rebook, you will need to schedule a new visit with a new booking fee.​​​​
​​​
WHEN SELECTING AN ARTIST . . .
DO NOT SCHEDULE BASED ON PRICE ALONE... make sure you also like their work.
COSMETIC TATTOOING IS NOT AN EXACT SCIENCE. We must first establish a secure baseline so we know how YOUR skin will react to OUR work!
​​​
Therefore, multiple sessions are typically required to complete all procedures.
​​​
These sessions should be spaced out 2 -3 months apart (preferably 3) just to make sure the skin has reached its final healing stage.
​​​
For a lucky few, less work will be needed. Others could require even more work depending on a multitude of variables.
​​​
Results from Cosmetic Tattooing can last roughly 6 months to 5 years, depending on individual circumstances.
​​​
FUTURE MAINTENANCE IS ALWAYS NECESSARY . . .
​​​
Remember that artistic ideas & skill levels will vary from artist to artist.
​​
Just because someone received training by a master artist, does not mean they can perform at the same level. Some will come close while others will need more practice.
​​​
Example... Have you ever been to an event like "Painting with a Twist"? If so, you may have noticed that all painting ARE SIMILAR, but none are identical to the teacher's work.
​​​
NEVER present a picture of another artist's work and expect the same outcome.
So be sure to get to know YOUR artist's work well, before booking just on price alone.
Ask for samples of their work and meet with them for a pre-appointment consultation prior to booking.
You want to make sure your ideas align with their skill level. ​ ​
ERMETIKA CAN NOT GUARANTEE THE WORK.
JUST BECAUSE A PERSON IS TRAINED BY CONNIE DOES NOT MEAN THEIR STYLE MATCHES HERS.
It takes years to master this craft and all results will vary from person to person. However, we all do our best to make you happy and every artist here knows that Connie has their back, and we all work as a team!
≈
​DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURES
Descriptions, much like art, are subject to interpretation. As far as BROWS go... we do not rely on labels... we create eyebrows that look as realistic as possible or at least like EXPERTLY APPLIED MAKEUP!
​
FUTURE MAINTENANCE IS ALWAYS NECESSARY
Please learn about REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS.. Because this is not a haircut, a manincure or a facial. This is a TATTOO on YOUR FACE! Since things CAN go sideways with just A FEW misplaced strokes! So it's very important to understand why we here at Permetika, take a conservative approach to procedures. In most cases, everything turns out looking great! Some people heal in with color that looks too light... Also... before booking a session, it's important to understand that aging never ends, so no treatment is ever really permanent. Also, results will vary from person to person and can last ranging from 6 months to several years depending on individual circumstances.
​
Do not schedule your procedure on price alone.
Consider the facts. MAKE SURE YOU'VE SEEN PICTURES AND LIKE THE ARTIST'S WORK! However, IF YOU HAVE ZERO (or close to zero) BROW HAIR, you should schedule with a master artist. On the other hand, if you have great brows and only need a subtle fill in, a student artist, or an apprentice under Connie's direction may be a great solution for you.
​
Be sure to schedule a consultation with your artist to make sure the vibe is right and to see samples of their work.​​
​
Appointments require a booking fee of 50% to reserve your spot on our calendar. The balance will become due on the day of your procedure.
​
PRICING FOR ALL PROCEDURES ARE BASED ON THE ARTIST CHOSEN AND THE LEVEL OF EACH PROCEDURE
​​
​DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURES​
​
* MicroBlading - BROWS 360
Our Term "Brows 360" refers to a STYLE of work, not a particular procedure. It encompasses all techniques including Microblading, Ombre, Dimensional, Powder Brow work.
We analyze your face shape, how the brows rest on your face and look at it from every direction and analyze how they interact with your expressions as well. Much like facets in a diamond... each angle reflects something different and all need to move together to create a natural-looking brow.
Microblading is a tattoo technique that uses a hand tool rather than a machine to create detailed hair strokes that look like natural eyebrows.
We take that technique to another level! Our unique style places more intention on PLACEMENT of the strokes and how they pertain to the face - as a whole.
​
As artists, we start our sessions with clients sitting in an upright position, NOT reclined! Think about it... when artists paint a portrait, they use an easel for a reason. It's far easier to capture the realism of the subject when viewing as the person as they would normally be seen, rather than drawing on a table.
NEGATIVE SPACE is just as important as the strokes! So we apply just enough strokes to improve shape and density, and deliberately leave some empty spaces - just like real brows. When you fill in every empty spot, the brows take on a rigid, mechanical look that makes your face look strange to the average person.
We don't try to complete the job on session 1, but your brows will still look MUCH better after the first session. We operate on a layering process, where we build into your desired results over a period of 1-3 sessions to prevent over-processing!
So our initial work is applied more superficially than the more traditional methods in order to see how the selected colors and pressure heal in. Then once healed, we can tell if pressure or color needs to be adjusted on subsequent sessions.
Microblading can be expected to last between 6 months to a few years, once follow-up sessions have reached your desired goals. Longevity depends on individual skin type, how well the aftercare is attended to, and lifestyle choices. Healed results are as unique as each client’s skin type.​
​
* Ombré Brows or Powder Brows
Ombré & Powder brows both produce an almost transparent, super soft powdery brow. Ombre style creates a look that is a bit more trendy where it is softer toward the front and top of the brow, and darker at the base and tail. Powder brows basically enhance your own brows by creating a shadow of color to enhance the shape and density. This technique actually holds the perimeter shape of the brow better than Microblading and is a great fit for all skin types. The application also fits any personality as the technique can be adjusted from super subtle to more defined and bold. This technique is done using a cosmetic tattoo device with a single-use cartridge. The pigment is also applied to the more superficial layers of the skin and can last up to a few years depending on individual skin type and lifestyle.
​​​
​
* Hair Stroke Brows by Machine
Ultra-fine tattoo needles embed hair strokes just beneath the skin's surface. This work resembles MicroBlading and it is actually a bit more gentle on the skin. This ultra-fine needlework is perfect for creating the look of individual fine hair strokes to build the illusion of fuller, more defined, and shapely brows. And if you're looking for a long-lasting procedure, this technique is a great alternative to Microblading as it can last between1-5 years once follow-up sessions have reached your desired goals! This too is dependent upon individual skin type and lifestyle.
​
* Combo Brows (Connie's Favorite!)
Let's get CREATIVE by combining techniques of Microblading & Ombré or Powder shading. This style creates beautiful dimension and more density than Microblading or Nano Brows alone. The additional shading creates results that are beautiful and can be expected to last 1-3 years depending on individual skin and lifestyle.

Corrective Color
Who wouldn’t want a healthy blush of color on your lips? After all, permanent lip color doesn't transfer to your teeth, wine glass, or your partner's collar! Color no longer bleeds and your lips stay pretty during dinner. All you need is a bit of gloss to moisturize them and make them pop! Be confident that your lips will always be on point.
​
IMPORTANT LIP INFORMATION:
1. If you get cold sores or have ever had one in the past you will need an antiviral prescription from your doctor before a lip procedure. Follow your Physician's dosage instructions and take half of the prescribed medication in the days prior to your appointment and the other half in the days following your appointment.
​
2. Lips typically require 2-4+ sessions in order to achieve the amount of color desired. This is because of the extra moisture around the mouth as well as the extra movement required to talk, eat, drink, etc. ​
​
3. Pigment may wear off over time, which will require a color boost every couple of years.
-
Ethnic Lips (requires consultation as some skin may result in excessive hyperpigmentation. Please send photos to 713-340-4422 for assessment).
​
Color can be applied in either a natural hue or a more vivid one and you can always adjust by applying different shades of lipstick over your permanent lip color. Medical Grade topical anesthetics are used to help reduce discomfort during treatments. If by chance you need more numbing than most people, you can arrange for our Nurse Practitioner to administer local injections of Lidocaine.
​
​
Beauty Marks . . . . $100
(Complimentary with any cosmetic tattoo procedure)
Freckles? We think they are cute too, but as fake freckles fade over time, they could take on an unnatural hue and could become problematic to correct. For this reason, we JUST SAY NO to fake freckles.
​
Scars & Stretchmarks - Color Camouflage
LIGHT SCARS & STRETMARKS are treated by stippling in various shades of color to help minimize the appearance of scars that are LIGHTER than the surrounding skin.
​
DARK scars, stretch marks, or birthmarks that are purple, red, or brown should NOT be color corrected with a lighter shade pigment due to the instability of the pigment and how the color changes over time.
​
Scars & Stretchmarks - Texture & Resurfacing
This procedure will attempt to remodel the skin to smooth out scars and stretchmarks. DARK stretchmarks that are purple, red, or brown should be allowed to heal to a lighter shade before reworking the skin and should not be color corrected with a lighter shade pigment due to the instability of the pigment and how the color changes over time.
​
If we are unable to perform services, I will refer you to a laser specialist. PLEASE TEXT US for more information: 713-443-8999.
​
Future Maintenance
Before you step into the world of cosmetic tattooing, you will have to realize that future maintenance will be required to keep things looking fresh. Think about the paint on your home, car, or boat. It has a limited life span - so does your permanent makeup. Once the initial phase and at least 1-2 follow-up sessions have been completed, you should plan to return every 1-3 years to renew the work. How often you will need to return greatly depends on your own level of satisfaction. What is enough for one person is not enough for another.
PERMANENT vs SEMI-PERMANENT
We prefer the term COSMETIC TATTOOING over "permanent" makeup, or "semi" permanent makeup because neither of the two latter terms is accurate. It's called Permanent" because it cannot be washed off, but it does not remain stable forever. Some of the culprits of fading include exposure to sunlight, chlorine, saltwater, etc, and chemicals such as those found in skincare products like Retin-A, glycolic acids, alpha-hydroxy acids, etc.
The newer generation of artists call it "SEMI-PERMANENT" and may say that it fades in 18 months. However, permanent makeup pigment does not have an expiration timer on it so there is no truth in saying that. Its staying power depends on how deep the artist applies it. Some artists have a very light touch while others cut like they are dicing steak. It also depends on the client's lifestyle and personal habits.
​
AND BTW... Our body chemistry, metabolism, biological & hormonal changes all play a role in the erosion of the permanent makeup color over time. For these reasons, color refreshment will ultimately become necessary.
​
Why do body art tattoos last longer than PMU?
Body art is performed with more concentrated pigments and applied deeper into the skin TO MAKE IT LAST A LIFETIME. NOT a great plan for PMU. Pigment in the face is constantly exposed to the sun and the tissue has an extra blood supply which metabolizes the pigment at a much more accelerated rate. These factors cause the colors to change over time. At some point, you may begin to notice that the gold tones within the eyebrow pigments are vanishing first. This is the normal course of color degradation and what was once brown, may fade to a lighter brown or it may fade gray. NO WORRIES! Now we just need to add some warmer tones back in the mix to freshen things up a bit.
