Amanda is passionate about her field of cosmetic tattooing and the results speak for themselves.

I have been interested in eyebrow shaping since I was a teenager. Not knowing how to shape my eyebrows, like so many others I did some damage from plucking too much out. As time went by my eyebrows didn’t grow back much at all. My brows thinned out more as I got older, and thanks to a couple of scars and an unbalanced thyroid issue and I wasn’t left with much by the age of 40.

I had to pencil them in every day, constantly tinting to keep them looking good, until it got too annoying. I had to learn how to fix my eyebrows, and with a lot of practice and persistence I was soon able to help other people fix theirs. I have now been shaping eyebrows for over 30 years, and tattooing for more than a decade.

The secret is being artistic, having an eye for detail, and the patience to deliver an excellent result every time. What I do is ingrained in me, it’s my passion. You can teach someone to paint, but that doesn’t make them a great painter. Many cosmetic tattooists are not artistic, so I’ve trained in a variety of different techniques, combining my artistic flair with my eyebrow shaping skills .
