At Nixie Permanent Cosmetics, we create natural-looking transformations that save you time, boost your confidence, and help you feel like yourself again—from the moment you wake up.
Whether you're dealing with sparse brows from over-plucking, hair loss, or simply want fuller, more defined features without filler, we're here to help you reclaim your face.
Not All Permanent Makeup Is Created Equal. Here's What Makes Us Different

We Know What You're Worried About (And We've Got Answers)
"Will it look fake or too bold?"
This is my number one priority—natural results. I use techniques specifically designed to create soft, realistic hair strokes and subtle color that enhance (never overpower) your features.
"Will it hurt?"
Most clients describe it as mild discomfort at worst! I use professional numbing cream to keep you comfortable throughout the process, and many clients are surprised by how pain-free my applications are.
"What if I don't like it?"
Permanent makeup is actually semi-permanent—it fades naturally over time. Plus, I offer retouch appointments to refine your results. We work together to ensure you love the outcome.
"How long does it last?"
Results typically last 12-18 months before needing a touch-up. Your first appointment includes a top-up 4-10 weeks later, and then annual maintenance keeps you looking fresh.
"Is it safe?"
Absolutely. I follow strict sterilisation protocols, use disposable tools, and am fully licensed and insured. Your safety and wellbeing are non-negotiable.

Hi, I'm Emily - Your Permanent Make Up Artist
I started Nixie Permanent Cosmetics because I believe everyone deserves to feel confident in their own skin. With my background in listening to and understanding diverse clients, I've built a reputation for creating transformations that go beyond the physical—they're emotional, too.
My clients tell me I'm down-to-earth, professional, and genuinely passionate about what I do. My clinic isn't your typical beige, boring beauty salon—it's bold, personal, and reflects my style (think tattoo studio vibes with a warm welcome).
When you're in my chair, you're not just another appointment. You're someone whose story I remember, whose concerns I address, and whose confidence I help restore.
