Lead time
The whole point isn't eyeliner. It's the awakened look you’ll have before you’ve even put on your face.
Our Technique meets your Style.One craft, and five ways to wear it.
Eyeliner is one technique that comes in five styles. Pigment is always placed at the lash line, never floating above or below it. Every style is mapped to your eye shape and facial structure before any pigment goes down — no stencils, no templates, no one-size-fits-all.The work lasts an average of one to three years, at which point you have the option to refresh your eyeliner with our Color Boost service.
Defined Eyes for Everyday Wear01 — Top Lash Line
Pigment is placed along the top lash line. You choose how much — between the lashes only for the most natural look, or a slightly thicker yet soft line that reads from across the room.
BEST FORClients who want lashes that look fuller, but not lined. Clients who want their eyes to appear more open, awake, and defined. All eye shapes. All skin tones.
ARTISTSJonny & Lina
dimension without darkening02 — Bottom Lash Line
Soft definition along the lower lash line. Choose to apply pigment between the lashes only for the most natural look, or a fine yet visible line — enough to frame the eye without ever darkening it.
BEST FORClients with a bottom lash line that fades into nothing. Clients who want the lower lid to balance their top liner.

Both Lines during One Appointment03 — Top & Bottom Lash Lines
The top and bottom lash lines defined at the same time — the fullest look that still reads as natural. Both lines are mapped as one frame around the eye, so they meet your eye shape in proportion.
BEST FORClients who line both lids every day. Clients who want the complete frame without a wing.
ARTISTSJonny only
A clean & customizable wing04 — Top Winged Lash Line
The artistry for winged eyeliner is in the shape work. The length, lift, and angle — all drawn against your eye shape and approved by you before any color goes down. The wing is drawn for your eye, not for Instagram.
BEST FORClients who wear a wing every single day and never want to draw it on again.
ARTISTSJonny & Lina

Our most defined look. A custom wing up top, and soft definition below — the full eye, framed during a single appointment.
BEST FORClients who wear a full eye of liner daily and want the boldest healed result we offer.

How The Appointment goes.Three hours. One chair.
I.
You'll settle in, complete your paperwork, and talk through the look you want — and anything you're unsure about. Then, lying back, we map your wing or line shape with your eyes open, and check it with your eyes closed. Nothing happens until you've seen the shape on your own face and approved it.
Consultation & Mapping
II.
Your artist outlines the shape lightly so you can see exactly where the color will land. Topical numbing is applied before any of the actual pigment work begins.
Outline & Numb
III.
The first layer of pigment goes down — most clients describe it as a vibrating scratch, short and manageable. Your artist re-numbs after this first pass, then continues layering until the line reads exactly right. Many fall asleep. Bring headphones — the machine buzzes.
The Work
IV.
You approve your eyeliner in the mirror before you leave — and we don't rush this part. Your aftercare kit and instruction card are handed to you in-person — walked through step-by-step. You're never on your own after. Ashleigh, the studio founder and owner, is a text away for anything during the 10-day heal window.
Approval & Aftercare
your Healing Timeline.The full heal — six distinct stages.
Eyeliner heals faster than PMU on brows or lips. The first three days are sharp and dark. By day ten, your eyeliner will have settled into its final color. Knowing what to expect at each stage prevents the panic-text most studios get on day four.
Stage 01
Day 1
Sharp & dark
Eyeliner looks crisp, defined, and noticeably bolder than the healed result will be. Mild swelling around the lash line is normal. Use cold compresses for the first few hours.
Stage 02
Days 2-3
Swollen & tight
Mild swelling and some tightness. Eyes may water more than usual. This is the stage when lash-line work feels most foreign — like wearing very heavy liner.
Stage 03
Days 4-7
Light flaking
The skin around the lash line starts to flake — like tiny crumbs around the eye. Do not pick. Apply balm and let flakes shed on their own. Color underneath is still settling.
Stage 04
Days 8-10
Soft & settled
Flaking is mostly done. Color looks lighter and softer than day one. This is closer to your final result. Eyes feel normal again. Light makeup over the area is fine after day 10.
Stage 05
Weeks 2-5
Color resurfaces
Final color emerges as the skin completes its turnover. Most clients see some fading between lashes. The perfecting session fills soft spots and locks in the final shape.
Stage 06
Weeks 6-8
Perfecting session
You return for the required perfecting session. We fill any soft spots, refine the line, and lock in the color for years. Both sessions are included in your total price.
A note from Ashleigh
Every new eyeliner service is a two-visit package. Perfecting is not optional — it is how we complete our work. Heal-window questions come to me, Ashleigh — the studio founder & owner. I keep my line open for you so that your artist can stay focused on the chair. Text me anytime at (330) 805-0084. Your aftercare kit will be given to you in-person before you leave the studio.
The most Frequently asked questions.Real questions with honest answers.
-
No. The work heals roughly 30% softer than day 1. We start at the lighter end of what you asked for. Color can always be deepened during the perfecting session 6–8 weeks later, but it can't be made lighter. Both artists are trained specifically to avoid the harsh, drawn-on look. The wing is mapped to your eye shape, never past it.
-
Most clients describe the sensation as a vibrating scratch on a sensitive area. Topical numbing is applied after the shape is outlined and approved, and reapplied throughout the session. The eye area is more sensitive than brows, but less so than lips. Bring headphones — the machine buzzes. Many clients fall asleep. The session is about 3 hours long.
-
Eyeliner lasts an average of 1-3 years, depending on skin type, sun exposure, and lifestyle. Factors that fade it faster: sun exposure, eye-area exfoliants and retinols, frequent eye-rubbing, and contact lens wear. A yearly Color Boost keeps the color saturated, but is never required.
-
Yes, during the heal window. Lash extensions must be removed at least 48 hours before your appointment and may not be reapplied for 14 days after your appointment. Once fully healed, you can wear extensions normally. They won’t affect the pigment.
-
No. Properly placed pigment at the lash line stays where it's placed. The look softens over time rather than spreading. Migration is usually a sign of work that was placed too deep or too far past the lash line. Neither of our artists places color that way.
-
Wear glasses to and from your appointment. You won't be able to put contacts in or take them out for the rest of the day. Wearing contacts the next day is fine as long as you're gentle around the lash line. Daily disposables are easiest during the 10-day heal window.
-
Every new eyeliner service is a layered process. The perfecting session takes place 6–8 weeks after the initial visit, as it evens any soft spots, refines the shape, and locks in the final color. Both visits are included in the total price. The perfecting session is not optional — it's how the work is finished.
-
Text photos of your eyes in natural light to Ashleigh, the studio founder & owner, at (330) 805-0084 before booking. She'll review and tell you honestly whether new work can go directly over the existing pigment, or if the old work needs to fade further first. Some old work needs more time before we can build over it.
-
Our artists block 3 hours of time on their calendars for each appointment. The deposit pays for their lost time in the event of a cancellation or no-show. If you arrive for your appointment, your deposit will be applied to your total cost during checkout.
