Re: Eyebrows

After I got laid off from Genentech, I dusted off my cosmetology license and started doing eyelash extensions, permanent makeup, and nails. I went to 2 different schools and attended additional workshops. $450 is about the going rate. Ask for information about their training. The more the merrier. Also ask for before and after photos.

Taxotere left me with very sparse brows. I actually did my own. I think I am my best advertisement. My procedure is as follows:

Apply numbing cream (over the counter, bring Emla if you have it)
Decide on color while client is numbing
Wipe numbing cream and draw on eyebrows.
When the client agrees to the shape, I begin


The. Laws governing this type of work vary from state to state. Very few require a license.
