Permanent Makeup and Reconstructive Tattooing

I purchased used $4 and I’m so happy I did. If I would’ve purchased at full price. I would’ve been big mad! This book doesn’t show you how to do anything. Just basic color theory knowledge and pigment knowledge. I gave 4 stars because it shipped early and whoever wrote it and put pictures in it did ok job. But this won’t help much if you want to learn how to the tattooing. No info on needle depth, patterns or the motion you hand should go.

When I first became interested in Permanent Makeup I was lucky enough to receive this book as part of a school's info packet. It DOES give excellent information on what PM is and how to get schooled in it. To me, that was it...NOT enough to do anything more but wet my appetite for the career and MORE information. Thank God for the internet. I guess, back when it was written, it was the only book about PM. Now the information out there is endless and diverse.It was well written, and the few pix in it were well done. In truth, the woman who had the PM, in my opinion, is a good example of how it should look after...not all dolled-up. Permanent makeup is meant to enhance what you already have, or give you what has begun to disappear (via menopause or surgery or accident) or for those with alopecia, who never were born with or lost their features (hair, brows).

This Book is excellent, Any Permanent make-up Artist or Educator that has not purchased this book yet, seriously needs to do so.I love this book, I just wish it came on a dvd so that I could use it for my students as a reference. It has everything in it and more. wow!!!!!!Thank you Eleanora Habnit

Good book..I was hoping for more about technique, but it has some great pictures!

This book is simplistic and dated. I was really looking for something more informative on the technical side.

I expected to get a lot more detail from this book. The info is very basic. You can get more info off of the web, for free, than you can get from this book.

This was a total surprise! I am amazed at what can be done with permanent makeup - and not just for beauty. I am impressed with and interested in this profession.

I like the book a lot and give a lot info

Rubbish

I found this book fasinating, great photos and information in this. I have now joined a college for Permanet makeup, I am really enjoying the course

Well worth a read, I did learn something.Ideal background reading for students.

very interesting book

Old good book.
