    I do permanent makeup - hello!

    Man that's a lame way to introduce myself...

    Anyway, hey dudes (and dudettes) I'm totally stoked I found this forum. As the title suggests, I am a permanent cosmetic makeup artist. I do not do body art. I tattoo eyeliner, lips, eyebrows, and the occasional beauty mark.

    Currently, depending on my mood I will either use my Mickey Sharpz, a custom coil built by Seth Cifferi, or a Neo Tat which I am not entirely pleased with at the moment because it keeps cutting out and I've maybe
    used it 500 total hours.

    I like to line with Sumi ink but hate that it heals blueish even if I add orange to it. I would love to find a black that really heals black or at least dark brown.

    Glad to have you, there are a few permanent cosmetic professionals on here. Is your Neotat minijack, RCA or clipcord? the cutting out could be your cable.

    It might be the RCA...it just sort of fades out and stops. If I let it sit for a week or so it will run again for awhile.

    Waverly...I'll check it out, thx.

    Talons is a strong black and great for penwork but tattoos should be done with tattoo specific pigments not unsterile and carcinogenic drawing ink full of toxins....
