Although Permanent Makeup and Lash extensions are suitable for many clients, there are a list of client requirements that clients must read and qualify for prior to booking. Please make sure to state that it is the client’s responsibility to thoroughly review the list prior to the booking.

We have separated this into 2 sections since the contraindications are different
