💜 Thank you Gill for a lovely review 💜

If the pain aspect is what puts you off having your brows done, let me reassure you that they really dont need to be painful! 

Hand on heart, id say at least 70% of my brow clients fall asleep during the treatment. I work super light in the skin in a gentle layering technique. No bleeding or any of those horror stories here thank you 🙌🏻 

Do your research ... always!

The Latest from the Gram

PMU ARTISTS ... are you ready for something FRESH, NEW & EXCITING?

Think conference, competition & awards BUT REAL. RAW. HONEST. EDUCATIONAL & HANDS ON.

The QUEENS's NIGHT is coming to the UK for the very first time, and I am honoured to be hosting this alongside the incredible @clinita_uk 🔥

📆 5th & 6th September 2025

✔️Day 1: MASTERCLASS

Get hands on & interactive with 3x of the most sought after trainers in PMU. Watch, listen, implement, receive feedback & guidance.

This will NOT be a traditional conference staring at a stage. Youl need your machines, a good piece of latex and a ready to learn YOU 🔥

✔️DAY 2

- LIVE COMPETITION: It's time to say goodbye to choosing your best photo's, risk of editing & unfair submissions or judging criteria. Let's bring back the meaning to winning an award 🏆

Let's tattoo together, LIVE, on a REAL PERSON. Let's see those daily challenges we get in clinic every day. You dont need the perfect canvas to be a good Artist. Dont think insta worthy snaps - they are so last year 🤣

Judging will be live, with a scoring system that takes all of the real life struggles into consideration, judged by multiple judges per category, from Judges that have years & years of experience behind them. Scores will be open & transparent post competition.

✔️ DAY 2:

Business BRUNCH & Demo Zone

Not competing? No sweat. We have another incredible day lined up for you, starting with our Business Brunch. 

Learn from key speakers on how to grow your business, your mindset and most importantly, yourSELF.

Then head on into the Demo Zone to watch your favourite Artists in Action. Ask them questions, watch and most importantly LEARN 🔥

🎉 Finally, join us for the Awards & a spot of Dinner. 

Results will be counted up and our competing Artists will be recognised 🫶 Let your hair down, relax & network. (And party if thats your kinda thing 🙃) 

It's going to be EPIC.

Early bird tickets coming soon 😍 I will see you there xx

Eyebrow Transformation 😍

Looking forward to seeing these beauties soften & healed!

#browlife #browtransformation #browqueen #permanentbrows #permanentmakeupessex
Wow, 4 years ago today, I took a leap and transformed this space into what became our beautiful clinic and training academy. I poured my heart (and a small fortune) into refurbishing it, it was perfect.

Just as we were up & running, BAM - COVID hit and forced us to shut down whilst still needing to cover overheads.

Do I regret it? Absolutely not. 

That experience pushed me to grow in ways I never imagined and I was lucky enough to have an incredible team around me where we came through stronger than ever.

It taught me invaluable lessons—how to adapt, think creatively, and seize new opportunities. 

In fact, that year turned out to be one of our most successful ever in business.

Here’s what I learned: when business gets tough, you have two choices:

1️⃣ Give up, feel defeated, and stay stuck.

Or

2️⃣ Push forward. Use your knowledge and skills to diverisfy, and come back stronger than ever.

It really comes down to mindset. 

Do you have a fixed mindset or a growth mindset? 
Are you even aware of this?

As an entrepreneur, a growth mindset is non-negotiable. Without it, you’ll limit yourself and miss the opportunities right in front of you.

Pay attention, keep an open mind, take risks, and most importantly - believe in yourself. 

You’re capable of so much more than you realise 🫶

If you are a PMU Circle member, youl see that we focus a-lot on mindset aswel as technique & theory, because, well, you can be the best artist in the world, but without the right mindset, you may never reach your potential.

Ps dont forget we have an incredible coaching call tonight with @businessmamauk on ... guess what ..... MINDSET 🔥

Let's start 2025 off STRONG 💪🏻

See you on there xx
