Unpopular opinion: Not every makeup trend needs to become a PMU service.

I think sometimes we get so caught up in what’s trending and what clients are asking for that we forget to look at the bigger picture.

As PMU artists, our job isn’t just to do whatever our clients want. It’s to educate them, explain the longevity, and help them understand how certain styles may age over time.

Because let’s be real, makeup trends can change within a year, but we’re tattooing someone’s face. And what looks good right now might not be something they want to live with years from now.

Just because something is trending doesn’t mean it’s going to translate well into permanent makeup. We have to think beyond the fresh result and consider how it’s going to look healed, how it will age, and whether it’s something that will stand the test of time.

Trends are temporary. PMU is a long-term commitment. And I think it’s important that we remember that before turning every new makeup trend into a service.

I’m curious to hear from my fellow PMU artists… 👇🏼

Do you agree or disagree? Do you think every makeup trend should be tattooed, or are there some looks that should stay makeup? Let’s talk! 🤎

FULL accountability I should’ve been enforcing this a LONG time ago, but now I am.

So let’s say it together: NO DEPOSIT, NO APPOINTMENT.

Because it takes 15 seconds to send a text and cancel, But that one missed appointment affects so much more than you think.

It’s money we don’t get to make back, time we could’ve spent with our families, and an appointment another client would’ve loved to have.
We love making you feel good, showing up for you, and doing what we’re passionate about. But we have bills, responsibilities, families, and lives outside of this business, too. And life happens, we get it. But communication and mutual respect go a long way.

We ask that you respect our time the same way we respect yours. 🤍

So from here on out, we’re protecting our time, our income, and our peace. No deposit = no secured appointment. And honestly? We should’ve been doing this all along.

To all my service providers, let’s stop feeling bad about having boundaries. We can love what we do and expect people to respect our businesses 💕
