Permanent makeup is an exciting way to simplify your routine and enhance your natural features, but it’s also a big decision. If you’re thinking about booking your first appointment, asking the right questions can ensure you feel confident, informed, and prepared. At Ink n Beauty in Fort Worth, we welcome all your questions—here are the most important ones to ask before committing to your procedure.

1. Is Permanent Makeup Right for Me?

Not everyone is a perfect candidate for permanent makeup, and your artist should help assess your suitability.

Ask:

• Do I have any medical conditions or skin sensitivities that might affect the results?
• What areas of my face will benefit most from PMU?

2. What’s the Difference Between Each Type of Permanent Makeup?

Understanding the services available can help you choose what fits your goals best.

Ask Your Artist About:

• Microblading vs. Ombre Brows
• Lip Blushing vs. Lip Liner
• Classic Eyeliner vs. Lash Line Enhancement

Why It’s Important:

• Each technique offers different results and levels of maintenance.

3. What Training and Certifications Do You Have?

You should only trust your face to a highly trained and licensed professional.

Ask:

• Are you certified in permanent makeup application?
• How many years of experience do you have?
• Can I see a portfolio of your work?

4. What Can I Expect During the Appointment?

Knowing what will happen during the session helps calm nerves and set realistic expectations.

Ask:

• How long will the procedure take?
• Will numbing cream be used?
• What does the process feel like?

5. What’s the Healing Process Like?

Healing time and aftercare play a big role in how your results turn out.

Ask:

• How many days should I plan for healing?
• What should I avoid during recovery?
• When will I see the final results?

6. How Long Will the Results Last?

Permanent makeup is actually semi-permanent, and longevity varies by skin type and lifestyle.

Ask:

• How often will I need touch-ups?
• What can I do to extend the results?

Expected Lifespan:

• Most procedures last 1–3 years with proper care.

7. What If I Want to Change the Look Later?

Preferences change over time, and it’s good to know your options.

Ask:

• Can we go subtle with the first session and build on it later?
• What’s the process if I want to adjust the shape or color during a touch-up?

8. What Are the Risks or Side Effects?

While permanent makeup is safe when done correctly, every client should be aware of potential risks.

Ask:

• What are the possible complications?
• How do you ensure hygiene and safety?
