I’ve wanted permanent eyeliner for some time. I’ve been thinking about it seriously (seriously enough to research local artists, etc.) for months – and considering it much longer than that. I’m the type that, without eyeliner, has a face that appears to be a nose, mouth – and nothing else. No eyelashes to speak of, and small eyes. If my eyes are the windows to my soul – I don’t have much of a soul.
I took the plunge Saturday – made the appointment last week with a reputable artist and got permanent eyeliner – upper and lower eyelids. For those unfamiliar with permanent cosmetics, effectively, it’s a tattoo. So, I got a tattoo of eyeliner on my eyelids. I used an artist that only does permanent cosmetics, but I’m in a room across the hall from a burly bald biker dude getting who-knows-what big intimidating tattoo.
