A consultation is not required but is strongly recommended, particularly if you have any doubts or are unsure about the process in any way. This is a chance to have a sketch drawn up, and to communicate your goals to your proposed artist.

It is strongly advised to send in good, clear, well lit photos of your previous work for review before booking a consultation. Patsy works with the aim to give a result that is as natural as possible, and this only works if the brows are virgin (never been tattooed before) or have a faint shadow of old work.

More information on how to take good photos can be found in the following facebook video here.

Cosmetic tattooing is suitable for you as long as you meet the medical requirements, have little to no previous pigment in the area, and you understand the process. The rest of the equation is just personal preference.

Cosmetic tattooing is an art, not an exact science so an element of trust between the artist and the client is a strong requirement. It is up to you to do your due diligence and ensure you are 100% with the proposed plan and previous work of the artist before commiting.
