Most clients describe the feeling as mild scratching or pressure, not a sharp or unbearable pain. It’s more annoying than painful, and many say it feels similar to tweezing or microdermabrasion.

We apply professional-grade numbing to ensure you are comfortable throughout the process (clients must purchase this using the link provided by Kayla). We also re-apply the numbing throughout the session - your comfort is a priority.

Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but here’s what clients usually say:

“Way better than I expected”

“I was more nervous than I needed to be.”

“It didn’t hurt - I was so relaxed and pretty sure I fell asleep.”

If you are especially sensitive or anxious, just let me know - I’love talk you through it, take breaks, and keep the vibe chill and supportive. You’re in safe hands.

It is HIGHLY recommended that clients avoid the procedure at the time of your menstrual cycle as this will increase discomfort throughout the procedure and is likely to make you bleed which can cause subpar results.

Cosmetic tattooing is designed to fade over time. Although treatments generally last for 12-18 months before you will need a colour refresh, however everyone has different skin types and hold pigment differently.

It is extremely important to have your 6 week touch up, cosmetic tattooing is a 2 step procedure and to get the very best results out of your tattoo, you will need a touch up (perfection) appointment.

It is important to understand that fading will occur due to - sun exposure, facial peels/ treatments, exfoliants, age metabolisim and some medications. Aftercare is key to maintaining best results.

Please note that the final results vary and cannot be guaranteed due to the nature of skin as it heals.

If you are wanting an old tattoo fixed, colour refresh or touch up you must send a photo to Kayla on 0407 466 766 prior to booking an appointment as some old tattoos will require removal before proceeding. Removal will be necessary if previous work is too dark, dense, discoloured or wrong shape.

Yes, there are a number of individual and lifestyle factors that can affect the longevity of your cosmetic tattoo.

Bleeding during the procedure will reduce the amount of pigment that is absorbed into the skin. That is why it is important to speak with your doctor prior to your appointment if you are on blood thinning medication.

Thyroid medication can affect the outcome of the tattoo. Thyroid medication can also cause pigment to heal to more of a cool tone.

Smoking will cause results to fade faster.

If you are anemic or have iron deficiencies, you will metabolize the pigment faster and your tattoo will fade quicker.

Skin type, everyone has such different skin types and heal differently. There are some cases where cosmetic tattooing just simply wont work due to your skin just not accepting pigment.

Oily skin - Oily skin in general always produces more oil causing it to push out the pigment a lot faster than normal skin, and it can blur the hair strokes.

Yes, you must understand that your brows will be dark for the first week, this is normal due to the oxidation in the surface of the skin. It’s a fresh tattoo, so the pigment is on top of the skin, once it heals and settles into the skin you are left with the beautiful soft results we aimed for.

Your brows can also feel warmer in colour.

Redness and swelling is rare, however it may occur and typically disappears within 24 hours.

As we have mentioned, each indiviual lifestyle factors will affect how the tattoo will fade, but majority of our clients tattoos stay true to colour over time.

It is highly recommended that you return for a colour refresh every year, as all tattoos lighten in colour so if you wish to maintain the original colour we definitely recommend a yearly colour refresh.

Each individuals skin type and lifestyle factors will affect the tattoo in long term. Exposure to the sun will contribute to a faster pigment fade, so ensure that you always apply sunscreen or wear a hat.
