I wouldn't mind getting a tattoo in general, but why oh why would someone put themself through the pain of getting eyeliner tattooed?!?!?!?! That's such a sensitive area...
I never really thought about this, I'll have to tell my roommate about it, she naturally doesn't have eyebrows and she hates having to take the time to draw them on every morning. I've got too much eyebrows, their pretty thick and thanks the my family's sometimes horrific genes I've got a bit of a unibrow that I've routinely gotta pluck... How does electrolysis work? Does it last for a while then it grows back? If so, how long does it take to grow back? And how much does it cost?

I don't think I would get permanent makeup just because I change how I do my makeup so much! I knew a girl in college who had permanent eyeliner and I was always jealous that her eyeliner was always perfect at the end of the day... until she told me why.
I have thought of electrolysis but I'm scared of the pain. I had a friend in high school who got her WHOLE STOMACH done. Every spot turned red though and she looked like a plucked chicken for awhile until the redness went away. I think I'll stick with plucking and waxing! Besides, I have a little plucking obsession, so what would happen if I couldn't pluck anymore?? ![]()

Electrolysis really doesn't hurt. If you are very sensitive to pain, you can get this over-the-counter cream that you can put on beforehand and it numbs the area and you can't feel it at all. My mom plucked her eyebrows when she was young and she REALLY REALLY messed them up badly. That is why she has to get them tatoo'd in now. She has 3 daughters and she did not want that to happen to any of us, so she started taking us to electrolysis when we were young so we would never have to pluck and potentially really mess up our eyebrows. I also have my entire face done....I have no mustache or sideburns or any other "peach fuzz" on my face. And if you put some ice on the area right after it is done, it won't turn red.

I had a friend that tattooed her eyeliner on. The people that usually tattoo eyeliner on are the people with red hair that have very pale lashes (like you can't see them). The eyeliner helps them stand out. Without eyeliner on they look like they don't have lashes at all, so they get them tattooed so you can see their lashes.

haha, I'm a strawberry blonde so if I don't put on mascara and eyeliner it looks like I don't have any. But I think I would rather go through the hassle of putting it on than tattooing it, it really doesn't take too long now that I'm good at it.
Thanks SOOOOOO much for the electrolysis info, I am DEFINITELY going to look into it!!! That may be in answer to my prayers!!

Electrolysis is the only proven form of PERMANENT hair removal. I had the most horrific eyebrows, very wild and thick, but thanks to electrolysis, they are now perfect and they are permanent....they don't grow back. Different electrolysises charge different rates. Some charge by the minute (like $3 per minute) and some charge per every 15 minutes and can be as much as $45 for 15 minutes. It just depends on the person and how they run their business. And it depends on how bad your eyebrows are as to how long it will take to remove all the hair that is necessary. Since you have been plucking your eyebrows, the hair may grow back once or twice max, but it will get thinner and thinner and eventually it won't grow back at all. I would look in the yellowpages or look on www.whitepages.com and just look under "Electrolysis" to see who in your area does this. The difference bt electrolysis and laser is that you can only do electrolysis on small areas....your face, toes, fingers, bikini area, underarms....you could not get it done in your legs or arms as you have to do one hair at a time and it would just not be feasible. That is where laser comes in....laser can do large areas, but it is not proven to be a permanent form of hair removal. If you have anymore questions about electrolysis, just ask! I would highly recommend it to anyone. By the time you pay to wax for many years, you could have paid for electrolysis to be done and it is permanent.
