If someone asks who did your permanent make-up you can bet it wasn’t me! Because of my extensive art background and my ability to custom blend colors perfectly to your skin tone, and in the case of brows, your hair color, you will think you were born that way. Because the procedure requires very little time, it allows the busy woman to have her treatment in the morning and return to her activities that afternoon.

From the beginning of time, women have used their eyes and lips to communicate. Eyebrows, eyes are lips are the focal points of facial expression. Sparse eyebrows, either as a result of nature or over tweezing, non-existent brows caused, for example, by alopecia can be corrected. Eyes can be given definition and structure by creating a fine line close to the upper and lower lashes. In the case of people without real lashes, it can create the illusion of lashes. The shape of the lip can be improved, and imperfections such as arched, flat or asymmetric lips can be corrected giving you the confidence of long lasting beauty that goes on....and on. With Faces by Vicki permanent make-up, looking beautiful all the time has never been easier.
