Alter Ego is AMAZING! Renee was recommended by co-workers of mine for eye-liner and eye-brow tattooing. First, I have to comment on how great of a place this is. The building is fresh and clean & run by women! It feels more like you are walking into a salon or spa type place than what one would normally think for a piercing and tattoo business. Everything is in order and well decorated. Every single staff person is super welcoming and talkative. You feel like you're right at home and part of the "family" as soon as you walk in.
I had previously done micro-blading at a DIFFERENT facility, which was extremely painful and it did NOT last more than 1 year. I took extremely careful care of the brows after the micro blading and followed all the strict instructions. I have a high pain tolerance but aside from being one of the most painful things I've done, I was extremely disappointed in the results of micro-blading.
When my co-workers spoke about Alter Ego and the tattoos they had just gotten for their eye-liner and brows, I was hooked. The results looked fantastic and so natural on both of them. They had nothing but good things to say about the process and how smooth it went for both of them. So, I made an appointment and was extremely pleased. Everything was thoroughly explained and the whole appointment didnt take more than an hour. I barely felt a thing! There was a little bit of comfort, as to be expected with any tattoo but it was so quick of a process and very manageable for tattooing the eyeliner and the brows. Renee paused periodically to ask how I was doing and would continue on, since it felt like a non-event. The numbing cream is a dream! I've had the eye-liner a few months now and love it. I haven't seen any color fading and the healing process was very quick. I was at work the next day and you could barely tell as there was very little redness. I just recently had my eye brows done and have had nothing but compliments. Again, very little redness and no swelling, so I was out and about the same afternoon and felt just fine. I am SO happy with the process and the results! I cannot praise this place more.
