Cosmetic Tattoo
TE WHATU ORA FUNDING
We are excited to share some amazing news—my cosmetic tattoo services for eyebrows are now funded for those who meet the criteria! It’s a simple process, and I’m here to help. I do all the filling in of forms, all you need to provide a medical cert stating your relative illness and hair loss.
Pretty simple! Why not? You deserve to feel your best!
I’ve seen firsthand how losing hair can deeply affect a person’s confidence and sense of self.
I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to support others in feeling like themselves again and embracing their unique beauty.
HNZ info “Who it's for? You may claim for this service payment if you: are a New Zealand citizen, or are ordinarily resident in New Zealand; and have a medical condition that has caused you to lose your hair (like treatment for cancer, alopecia or other scalp conditions that cause hair loss)”
Powder & Ombre Brow
What are Powder Brows? Powder brows is a cosmetic semi permanent makeup technique designed to create eyebrows with soft powder effect, very similar to powder makeup. Powder effect is done with a shading technique using a permanent makeup device, which is similar to a tattoo gun.
Results are long-lasting, natural looking, smudge-proof results, time-saving convenience, and a confidence booster!
Traditional:
The tattoo artist uses needles that penetrate the skin much deeper than the cosmetic technician. Regular tattoo will last forever, colour may fade slightly overtime.
PMU:
Semi permanent makeup pigment gets implanted in the lowest layer of epidermis and top layer of the dermis. It will generally fade in 1 to 2 years.

Healing process
The healing process for eyebrow tattoos typically takes 4–6 weeks, but the surface usually heals in 10–14 days. During this time, it's normal for the brows to appear darker and more intense than they will once they're healed. The brows may also scab and flake, which is part of the healing process.
Aftercare
Avoid picking or scratching the brows during the healing process. You should also avoid applying makeup, skincare products, or other cosmetics directly to the brows for at least 7–10 days after the procedure.
Longevity
Eyebrow tattoos can last 1–3 years, depending on factors like skin type, lifestyle, and touch-ups. You can expect to schedule a touch-up every 12–18 months to maintain the shape, definition, and color.
Preparation
You should avoid drinking alcohol or caffeine 24 hours before your appointment, and avoid taking blood thinners 72 hours before. You should also avoid waxing, tinting, or tanning 3 days before your appointment.
Color
The color of your eyebrow tattoo will be decided during your first session. The color will usually be based on your hair color and skin tone, but you can also discuss your preferences and the look you want to achieve
