Healed permanent: how a master does not blush at the sight of his work
Permanent Makeup Mistakes: How to Prevent or Correct Them?
Beautiful fresh permanent makeup is only half the battle. The real result is visible only when the skin is completely healed. Permanent make-up masters often refer to this stage as the "fixers"
Permanent makeup as a service in the beauty market continues to gain momentum. But if you evaluate this procedure from the point of view of the performance of the work by the master, then many pitfalls will be found. The performance of the work requires serious theoretical and practical training from a specialist. In addition to professionalism in the implementation of the technique, it is important to choose the right tools and consumables. If all the components are not assembled into a single puzzle, then the client will leave disappointed and dissatisfied. He will have to correct the consequences, and it will be almost impossible to revive the trust in the master. Repeated mistakes will damage your reputation and empty your list of potential clients for services.
How can a permanent master insure himself against mistakes? How not to blush in front of a client and be rightfully proud of your portfolio? We will talk about all this in this article.
Causes of possible complications
A permanent makeup master, like a doctor, must first examine the client's condition. Particular attention should be paid to the diagnosis of allergic reactions . Failure to detect allergies is the most common cause of possible complications, since a foreign substance (pigment, in some cases, an anesthetic) is introduced under the client's skin. The main ingredients of anesthetics are lidocaine and adrenaline. And, despite the fact that lidocaine is used almost without restrictions in modern medicine, this is not a reason to let everything take its course. Quincke's edema is one of the most dangerous consequences of a negligent attitude to the issue of client safety. If you do not provide timely assistance, then a fatal outcome is possible!
Owners of very delicate skin (natural blond, red, golden hue), under which the vessels are translucent, almost without fail must pass a test for the tolerance of the components.
An excellent solution to the issue in case of unforeseen consequences during and after the procedure for both parties is an agreement in which all the nuances are clearly and understandably spelled out. If the client insists on carrying out the procedure and does not want to carry out the test or hides some details, then the master can do the work, provided that the client takes responsibility.
Common problems with healed permanent makeup
The most innocuous consequence of unprofessional actions of the master may be the wrong color selection . This means that when choosing, the master did not take into account the color type of the client's skin.
The pigment lay unevenly during healing - this result indicates that the master has laid the pigment too deep or at different depths.
The contour swam - the master did not put a stroke, the shape was drawn incorrectly while working on the sketch.
It can be fixed?
Most likely, even the most experienced professionals do not have a universal method of how to avoid problems with healing. A lot of things can be fixed, but sometimes it can be difficult to achieve.
Among the recommendations of experts, we have selected a few tips that will be useful for use in the practice of PM masters:
No. 1. Continually learn: the more you know about the procedure, the better your clients will heal. Make it a rule to attend several courses or master classes every year. But do not just attend other people's master classes, but practice the acquired knowledge with your own hands.
No. 2. Practice: draw a stroke on paper and latex, bring the line to automatism. Every time you have a free minute, work on the strokes.
No. 3. Ask teachers. No searching on the internet, just seek the opinion of an expert. If you have been trained, ask your teacher a question. Now it is a common practice when experts answer questions from masters who have been trained by them or who have attended the author's master class in a messenger.
No. 4. Study color types and rules for selecting drugs. New pigments appear regularly, so carefully study the compositions, read the reviews of specialists who have already worked with these pigments, look for healed examples in trusted sources. Only then put the novelty into operation.
No. 5. In the sketch, consider not only the wishes of the client. Look at the shape of the face, the hairline, their shade.
No. 6. Communicate more with the client . Speak all the nuances and stages of the procedure. Explain and talk more about home care. After all, this is 30% of good healing. Make sure that the information you say is not just heard, but comes to consciousness! It may even be necessary to take feedback to make sure that the necessary information remains in the client's memory.
No. 7. Ask for results . Do not forget and feel free to inquire about the status of your work after the procedure. Such a gesture will recommend you only from the best side. And in addition, it will help to ensure that the client becomes your regular visitor.
