Permanent cosmetics by Allison Gretsuk
About me
I'm Allison and it would be my pleasure to help you reach your brow goals! I began in the beauty industry as a makeup artist in 2012, later diving deeper as an esthetician and receiving my license in 2018. In 2020, I began my apprenticeship at Birds of Prey Artistry to learn permanent makeup, motivated by helping others feel the best in as many ways as possible. After 4 years of cosmetic tattooing the time was right to strike out on my own, and that brings us here!
My Story
Having suffered from trichotillomania (an anxiety disorder resulting in hair pulling and permanent hair loss), I have a personal understanding of the impact of brow hair loss. Working with clients with trich, alopecia, and other hair loss brings me a specific kind of joy both professionally and personally.
I have a passion for gender affirming care and specialize in brow masculinization and feminizing.
As a licensed esthetician--with certifications in laser, microneedling, medical skin care, being a NALA accredited lash artist, and more--gives me a unique set of knowledge about the skin and anatomy I'm working on.
Services
I offer a variety of techniques and permanent makeup services!
-powder brows - soft machine to mimic the look of a light brow fill (I like to call this a day brow look)
-microblading (hair strokes like traditional microblading but done with a machine for less trauma to the skin and more control over the hair pattern to blend more seamlessly with your exisdting brow hair)
- a combination of the two - the best of both worlds! Hairstroke patterns to fill in texture with soft shading to add structure
-lip blushing and lip neutralization, to define the lips, even out pigmentation (either lack thereof or too much), and bring a pop of color to the lip
-natural eyeliner enhancement - a thin shading in the lash bed to help your eyes pop that will age gracefully with your anatomy
-saline removal with both Li-Ft and Botched Ink to lighten old work or correct an undesirable result. I also do full corrective, and can work with you on your journey to new brows if you are unsatisfied with what you have or just ready for a change!
