Simply so, do you have to be an esthetician to do permanent makeup?
Some states license permanent makeup artists as tattoo artists. Others require a special certification after you earn an esthetician or cosmetologist license. In some states, you only need a license in certain settings like salons or healthcare facilities. In other states, you don’t need a license at all.
In this manner, is permanent makeup really permanent?
Permanent makeup isn’t totally permanent — but it does last for up to 3 years. One permanent makeup session can set you back over $1,000. You should expect touch-ups to maintain the look (about $200 to 350) every 6 to 12 months. Like with regular tattoos, permanent makeup comes with serious safety concerns.
