Random Things You Need To Know About Getting Makeup Permanently Tattooed On Your Face (10 items)

(#9) They're Not Just For Women

Hairline tattooing is a growing trend in the male population. Around a third of American men are bald, but would like to still have at least the appearance of a hairline. Tattooing has a solution. Ink is applied around the hairline and even on the scalp itself, replicating the look of individual hair follicles.
Like other cosmetic tattooing procedures, there are pros and cons to consider. There are specially-designed, scalp-specific inks that hold up better than others. Additionally, make sure the artist uses fine needles; studies suggest that finer needles are better for use on areas with hair follicles, particularly the scalp. Larger gauged needles can cause bleeding and even infection.
This trend is still new, so the jury's out on how these hairline tattoos hold up. But if the right tools and ink are used, clients can expect to reap plenty of benefits.
(#5) Hate Applying That Winged Eyeliner? Consider Getting A Tattoo

Doing your eyeliner is no fun. It requires steadier hands and more patience than most people have first thing in the morning before they've even had their coffee. That's where a permanent makeup specialist can come in. They can give you the look of freshly applied liner that won't smudge or run.
Before you go under the needle, it's important to know exactly what you want. Have your specialist draw practice lines first, and consider springing for pricier hand tattooing – you'll get more precise results.
(#1) Tattooed Freckles Are The Look Of The Moment

Some people find their natural freckles a nuisance, but if Instagram is anything to go by, plenty of women who don't have them are seeking out ways of getting the sun-kissed spots artificially. California-based tattoo artist Mo Southern describes 2017's craze for tattooed freckles as a "grass-is-greener" mentality: "People want what they don’t have!"
Southern says once she began creating freckle constellations in 2016, she was flooded with requests. She thinks the subtle tattoos add a youthful look to an individuals face, but cautions that it can be tricky to get an ideal look: "You have to match the right shade of freckle to the skin. Every single person needs a different shade and tone to make it look natural."
(#3) Beauty Marks Can Express Individuality

Looking for a dash of old Hollywood glamor? A beauty mark might be just the ticket, and a professional can help you get the tattooed mole of your dreams. Should you want to express some extra individuality, those beauty marks can take the form of a tiny image, like a star, a heart, or a flower.
(#6) Permanent Lip Color Can Add Subtle Enhancement

On the permanent makeup side of this trend, getting tattooed lip liner is a go-to procedure. You may worry you'd wind up with garish red lips or deep lip liner that wouldn't always be in style. But typically, the results are subtle, but remarkable. Thin lips suddenly appear fuller; all mouths appear expertly shaped.

One client described the experience as waking up every morning with beautiful lips that are just a shade more intense than her natural lip tone.

For a more subtle alternative to fully tattooed lips, try lip blushing. It's the creation of cosmetic tattoo artist Gabrielle Rainbow, and it's intended to give your lips a natural flush of color. She'll blend a custom hue from a selection of 30 pigments, as light or as bold as you please. The results typically last three to five years.
