Why Permanent Makeup and Why Beauty Lounge?

They say that when you look good you feel good. While we always want to look our best, there are several reasons why taking the time and effort for makeup may simply not be practical. And while time may be a significant factor in considering permanent makeup, there are other reasons why it might make sense as well.

It’s possible that medical issues are resulting in hair loss or a sensitivity to traditional makeup. Or, as we age, applying your own makeup may become more of a challenge due to a decline in eyesight or shaky hands.

In any of these examples, permanent makeup may be an excellent alternative by providing the appearance you want or need, with a variety of options.

Microblading is the most natural permanent makeup option and uses a manual hand tool to create hair strokes.

Powder Brows creates a brow with more definition. They can be soft and powdery or beautifully defined.

Combo Brows is the combination of the two techniques above making it incredibly customizable. Lash Line Enhancement is where pigment is tattooed just into the lash line giving the effect of you having more full lashes. It is a great way to make a subtle difference!

Smudge-proof eyeliner is custom designed for your eyes. Smoky, solid, thin or winged, the options are endless.

And a new option is starting Aug. 1. Lip Blushing, which is done to enhance the beauty of the natural lip color, improve the shape of the lips, thereby giving definition and the illusion of fullness.

If you are contemplating permanent makeup, here’s the first of many good reasons to consider Beauty Lounge & Co. – experience and training.

Beauty Lounge owner Nikki Naylor started her training in permanent makeup in 2015, and she spent hundreds of hours honing her skills before ever working on her first client. Since her initial apprenticeship, she has attended several continuing-education courses to stay on top of the most advanced techniques available.

In addition to permanent makeup, Beauty Lounge can also provide expert services in non-permanent techniques for eyebrows and eyelashes and can even help you remove the tattoo that seemed like a good idea at the time.

When it comes to eyelashes, Miranda Bohr is our senior lash artist. Miranda started her career as a licensed esthetician in 2017 and has more than 400 hours of education, as well as extensive experience in eyelash extensions. Her work has resulted in Beauty Lounge & Co. being voted Gainesville’s favorite eyelash salon in both 2020 and 2021.

For non-permanent brow options, brow shaping, tinting or henna is available to clean up and define your natural brows with results lasting 3-5 weeks. Brow lamination is an option for those who like the fluffy brow look and our newest team member, Lexi, is the one who specializes in this.

Choosing to consider any of these services could mean taking a big step out of your comfort zone. That’s why the first move is a consultation. During the consultation two things happen. First, the client learns everything involved, so when you do move forward, it is with a great sense of relaxation. Second, your artist learns about what you want. It’s different for everyone, and the artists at Beauty Lounge will not move forward without fully understanding your goals.

So, when considering permanent makeup solutions, along with all these other services, consider Beauty Lounge & Co. where we take great pride in our craft and making you feel better in the skin you’re in.
