Has anyone tried this? I am hopeless with eyeliner and mascara and I was thinking that this might be a solution but I am bit nervious of giving it a go.

Have had eyebrows done (twice). Uncomfortable rather than painful - stings a bit, but results are fantastic. My friend also had her eyeliner done, but I was too chicken. She said it was quite painful.

I too am hopeless with eyeliner and mascara always smudges on me, no matter what brand.

I now have my eyelashes tinted which is fabulous but I am too nervous of having semi-permanent eyeliner incase I don't like it and its too dark and heavy.

Has anyone got any tips?

I have just had my eyebrows done for the first time and am over the moon with the results. I have eyebrows again!!after over plucking in the 70's. I did not find it painful at all but I understand the eyeliner is painful

Sooz, I am interested to hear that you're really pleased with the result, as I've been thinking about having my eyebrows done,too. Can I be really cheeky and ask how much it cost? And how long does it last for? Is it natural looking?

Thanks.

Oh dear. The 'pain' word seems to be coming up quite a bit. I think that will make me hesitate. I was thinking of giving the permanent eyeliner a go but I don't know if I am brave enough.

Cupcake,

I agree with you, I have often thought about it, but hear that to have eyebrows done its about £300 and eyeliner was more like £500, it only stays for about six months, but if I could afford it I think I would give it a try.

I saw a programme on TV about it once, and it didnt look that painful, I would imagine its similar to having a tatoo the same kind of action, if you know what I mean.
