FAQ

Since I moved from Europe to Canada I realized that balancing work and personal life is very important. Also I enjoy doing other things aside from my work. I’ve noticed that I thrive best in my treatments when I have time off for myself. I enjoy and connect more with my clients. I don’t like to rush my treatments. I like to take my time with each of client as it is very important for you but also for me.

A deposit is required to secure a treatment with me. For Permanent Makeup is $250+tax and for Scalp Pigmentation $500+tax. The remaining balance of the treatment will be paid in full the day we start.

Getting a Cosmetic Tattooing Treatment is much more than just making your daily beauty routine easier. As a Micropigmentation Specialist, it is very important to me to get to know you and your expectations with my treatments. Each treatment is unique and varies on the amount of sessions before it is completed. For this reason, I only accept a certain number of clients on a daily basis to ensure my clients receive the best service possible with my full attention.  Permanent Makeup can be completed within 2 sessions and Medical Micropigmentation can take between 3 to 5 sessions all depending on complexity of the treatment. 

If you read my client’s review in Google, they said I’m very passionate about what I do and take a lot of pride in my work – which I strive for. Most of the time during the initial consultation, if I don’t feel the treatment is for you I will say it openly. It is important for me to know that whichever treatment I perform will enhance your features and most importantly help you achieve what you are looking for. 

Shirley is passionate and is meticulous when it comes to creating the look you want and moreover possess a unique approach gained from training internationally. Her hairstylist background has empowered her career in Micropigmentation.
