Anne, I had my brows tattooed back in December and felt so good about it that I have been back to have permanent eyeliner done too!  I had this done at a salon local to me http://www.hdbeauty.co.uk/ and cannot praise Rachel high enough - although might not be convenient for you ladies living in the south of England!  However, the whole experience has definitely restored a bit of confidence in me as far as my looks go and I do not seem to dwell so much on the hair loss!  The eye liner was a little bit more uncomfortable than the eyebrows (which I hardly felt at all!).  I went for the natrual brush strokes on my brows and a slightly smokey effect for the eyeliner which is yet to heal but I am pleased with already!  P :-)

Go for it Anne ! I was recommended the person who did mine by Debs - it was about 15 months ago now so maybe due a little top up soon.  I had to use Vaseline on them for a week or so and not get them wet for a week if I remember correctly.  I use sunscreen on them as they do fade eventually.   They were quite dark to begin with but once they are healed that soon softens in colour.  I found the process not painful but I was aware even with the anaesthetic, of a kind of being scratched, but ALL WORTH IT !  I hope you get on OK.

I have a consult for this Thursday to look into getting my eyebrows tattooed. I am wondering what questions/concerns to bring up. I have plenty of my own but thought I would ask the wonderful ladies on this forum.

I meant "eyebrows" in my last post.  Sorry!  :-\

Thanks Annie & Christie, will purchase, believe only available online.

It does take a few tries to get the hang of applying SmartBrow.  You want to make sure you get it right while it's still wet because it won't blend after it dries.    You can go online to see a demonstration on how to apply it.

I use SmartBrow as well.  I think it is the best product for eyelashes.  I have one eyebrow that is more thinned than the other one.  So, I just use the SmartBrow and then add a little powder to the thinner eyebrow.  This works great because the gel is still a little wet and it sticks very well and stays in place (I work out a lot and can even wipe the sweat and it stays on).  I use a very thin brush for the powder so it looks very natural.

Thanks Annie,I assume you feel it appears natural as you purchased it twice? Did it take some getting used to, applying it to get that natural look

I have used powder, but it doesn't seem to cover the bare areas as well as the SmartBrow.  The SmartBrow is much like mascara which thickens and stays in place until you take it off with the makeup remover (included with purchase).  It has a tiny brush on one side to fill in bare areas and a mascara-type wand to coat the entire brow area on the other end.  However, as much as I like the product, I've only purchased it twice because it's so darn expensive.  One tube is $29.95, and it lasts only about 6-8 weeks.

I am wondering whether powder or smart-brow (I've seen people mention on this site), looks more natural when brows are sparse. If smart-brow is gel type, salesgirl @ Ulta said their gel brand for brows is meant when just a little fill in is needed.
