Beauty Ink Permanent Cosmetics - Outside - Entrance - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Started going here since 2016 and I must say, I'm so grateful to have found Charnae! It was a referral from a yoga co-worker who had pretty nice brows. I was debating my first brow tattoo for way too long because of fear of needles and the unknown... but finally I was sick and tired of drawing my brows. Charnae is very easy to talk to and makes you feel super comfortable. 2 hours flies by!!! She also uses a numbing gel prior to tattooing so the experience is very tolerable. Clean and professional environment. Nicely kept. Tattooing my brows saves me 20-30 mins of getting ready! Now doing eye makeup is fast! Her new location is in the Standard Financial Building. It's the same parking lot as Kats Sushi. Best to text her or schedule your appointment on her website because she's super busy. Her quality is excellent so it's worth the wait if you have to book a later time. Mahalo Char for fun brow therapy!! :) Always a great time ~ read more

What better time to invest in perfectly shaped eyebrows to wake up to every morning. Quarantine was the perfect time to go through the healing process. Char is a local business owner who takes pride in her work and it shows! I love that she took the time to shape my barely there hairs. (none where I really need them) I always felt my face and eyes are slightly crooked. She evened me out and now I feel confident that my eyebrows will be there all day and not have to spend precious time drawing them in myself. If you like me want to save time and wake up to perfect eyebrows, go see Char. Great conversation and great sanitary practice to make you feel safe and comfortable. read more

Char is THE best! I've had messed up eyebrows for most of my life along with a crooked face lol and have always needed to draw them in. Ladies that draw your eyebrows on, I know you feel my pain. Sometimes they're sisters, sometimes they're strangers, sometimes one is surprised and one is mad. You catch my drift. Add that with my crooked face and drawing them in everyday was a struggle and pinged at my self consciousness. I always wanted to get them done but I'm really picky about the artist and was honestly afraid of the permanency of them. What if I didn't like it? This is my FACE. Luckily, I found Char on Instagram and she was one of the two people I was considering as everyone else's work did not impress me. I decided to take the leap and as I've told MANY people, my only regret is I didn't do it sooner. SHE IS THE BEST HANDS DOWN. When she mapped and drew my eyebrows on I've never seen more beautiful eyebrows on my face EVER. She asked what I wanted (darkness, shape, fade, etc.) and went to work. She took her time, made sure they were perfect, and straight on my face lol. When it came to the application I felt no pain due to the numbing solution and she made me feel comfortable. There were no awkward silences and we talked like we've known each other for years. After care instructions were clear as well. When I came back for the retouch she saw how they healed and made the second application to exactly how I wanted them. And they came out perfect, I've never been happier. You'd be surprised at how many people have told me how amazing my eyebrows look, even almost 2 years after I got them done. Bye bye self consciousness! They still look wonderful and I don't have to put any make up on to fill in. I ALWAYS tell them who my eyebrow artist is and that doing them is an investment in yourself. So far, 3 of my personal friends have gone to her and all 3 loved it. If you go with Char you will have no worries and your brows will guaranteed be beautiful! Thank you Char!!!! read more

Char is amazing! I had my brows previously done years ago by another artist twice and liner. After years they ended up fading to a light red and we're crooked and my liner is completely gone. Char is not only awesome at what she does my an amazing person. There is no awkwardness at all. I felt like we knew each other for years. I highly recommend her. She may be young but she is great at what she does read more

Beauty Ink Permanent Cosmetics - Photo by Char - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I waited months for char and glad I didn't chicken out and did it! I wake up with perfect brows, save easily 10 min each morning, and on a good skin day my brows are enough to let me look presentable enough to run out the house with! It really frames the face and defines your look. Char is very on-trend with brows! I chose a faded ombré in the front and took her advice on the coloring. Took the longest to draw on the brow . Actual tattooing took about 30 min per brow and yes it did hurt lol. I had a massive headache for a day but totally worth it. My brows look fantastic but i have a follow up in few months to correct anything that might need to tweaked . Cons: painful, you will look crazy until your brows heal and peel (day 3-4) so plan accordingly. I wore a hat the whole 4 days :-0. Even with all this, totally worth it! read more

Beauty Ink Permanent Cosmetics - Brows on fleek!! - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

If you have ever thought about permanent makeup, the first thing you should know is that not just anyone can do it and do it well. Also that it's not permanent these days but more of a semi permanent process. Which personally is better because beauty trends change and peoples styles change. So why would you want to be stuck with the same look forever.... Also be patient! Just like getting a tattoo, there is a healing period right after. You can't rush that process or you will mess up your tattoo artist's hard work. Also do a bit a research yourself so you know if the artist and the look your going for is right for you. I recently had my eyebrows done by Char and I LOVE IT!!! I love the shape she gave my brows and the color. I love that it looks natural and that my brows look like they have fullness and an arch. I am so low maintenance when it comes to looking put together and this procedure was just what I needed to complete my look. I would have never imagined myself as the girl with tattooed eyebrows,but damn am I glad I did it. I now spent no time worrying about how my face looks because I feel more confident knowing that my eyebrows give me the illusion of being "carefree" and "au naturale". At first I wanted the hair stroke look because I thought it was going to look more natural. I don't wear makeup on a regular basis so I didn't want my eyebrows to look I was wearing drawn in eyebrows and that's all :0 But she steered me into the right direction by spending the time to consult with me. She let me look through photos and choose the eyebrows that appealed to me. Which after choosing several looks, she informed me that the look I want is powdered and NOT the hair strokes. The actual tattooing itself was not painful at all! Very tolerable! She spent more time drawing and shaping my eyebrows, then she did tattooing. She wanted me to be happy with the shape and color before beginning the process. My healing time was basically about 5-6 days. By the 6th day the scab was gone. DO NOT PEAL the scab off! Also do use the ointment they give you because I noticed it helped to soften the scab, which in turn made it come off smooth and quick. I am going to see her again in about 2-3 month for a touch up. I am just enjoying what I have now, which I am already happy with. But I want to spend the time to observe my skin and the process the ink goes through with time. I highly recommend her! Check her out on Instagram for pics, username: beautyinkbychar read more

Char is absolutely a life savor!!! I have hated my over plucked non growing eyebrows for the past 15years. She did an amazing job at creating my new eyebrows. She took her time, was extremely patient and explained the whole process to me. Once done they are dark for a little while. It was around day 5 they started lightening up and actually made me cry (because they looked amazing) I am so happy that I made this decision and would recommend anyone to go see her. It will change your life :) read more

Char is AWESOME!! I will never go to any one else for my brows and I'm so happy to have found someone that I can confidently trust. I didn't even know what look/shape I was going for and asked her to decide a good look for my face and let me tell you... she did the damn thang! Char does amazing work, my brows are flawless and beautifully done with the perfect color and shape. I wouldn't want them any other way. She is literally just so talented in what she does and her work proves it. Aside from all of that, I also love that she's so personable and easy to talk to. Tattooing your face can be a frightening thing, but she made me feel so comfortable the entire time. Char is talented, super friendly, professional and just an all around awesome permanent makeup artist. I totally recommend! read more

Although I was referred to Char by another awesome technician (she moved to the mainland), I am so thankful that our paths crossed. Char is very professional. She puts you at ease, and I appreciate that she explains what she will do and what to expect. I took my mother to correct her eyebrows and they turned out great. Char corrected the shape and the color. It came out very natural. I referred my sister for lash enhancer, and she just loved, loved, loved the way it came out. She doesn't use much makeup, and the lash enhancer/thin eyeliner made her eyes pop a little more without looking made up. If you want to enhance your beauty, Char is the lady to go to! read more

Char is THE best in the business!! I've gone to her for both my eyebrows & eyeliner. I love waking up and not having to worry about putting on makeup. Ive gotten sooo many compliments about my permanent makeup!! It is DEFINITELY worth the investment!! I love her precision and attention to detail. Her lines are sharp & clean, and her fading skills are absolutely amazing!! read more

This was my first time doing my eyebrows. I was a little afraid at first but Char reassured me that I wouldn't feel any pain. She went over everything with me and was very informative. I totally love my eyebrows and that is one less thing to do when I put on my makeup. I recommend Char anyday! read more

So blessed to have found Char again! Ist met her at her previous job.The master tech didn't have time to redo her work which faded within weeks.I was unhappy. So far, the work hadn't reflected the cost. So they told me they can set me up with Char, a top level technician Well, turned out her work was excellent! She's not only only highly skilled tho, she's also honest & personable. I suggested she open her own business as she was that good.Fast forward a year later..Looking for someone to correct a lip job. Wanted to call for Char at Face It but hesitant due to outrageous prices(not within Char's control). Ckd Yelp, & saw her name mentioned. Knew it had to be My Char! lol. Booked asap. Came out with perfectly sexy,pouty lips. Thank u so much C! Love u and yr work. I have no doubt in your success in the years to come;) read more

Char is awesome. She is very detail oriented and takes MUCH pride in her beautiful work!! I had my eyebrows done, and I'm absolutely in love with her work. From the start I trusted I was in good hands... Not to mention she's super sweet and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone that is even thinking about getting permanent makeup done. Thanks again Char!!!! read more

Char is simply the best at permanent eye brow cosmetic. She's very knowledgeable, friendly, and precessional. I've had my first appointment with her January 2016 and about 6-8 weeks after that for my retouched. And again for my yearly annual retouch. Each visit with her was great. As soon as you come in, she always greets you with a smile and makes you feel welcomed. She then applies numbing cream onto your eyebrows so you don't feel anything while the process of getting your eyebrows down. Process takes about 1.5-2 hrs long. She always ask if you're doing ok and you're always welcomed to stop to take a break if you ever need too. Go see Char if you're thinking of doing your eyebrows done! I swear it's the best investment ever! I don't have to spend an extra 15 mins doing my eyebrows in the morning anymore. You won't regret it with char! read more

Charnae is an outstanding beautician. I am always appreciative of her professional work. I will continue to refer friends here. Just show up and let her take care of the rest! Mahalo! read more

Charnae is my go to girl for my brow touch-ups. I originally had them done at face it salon, by the lady whom Charnae originally apprenticed under, Edine. She also worked there before branching out on her own. Starting her own business was a good decision on her part, and I'm glad I can continue to make use of her services, for a decent price. If you're looking for someone to do your brows right, and to your liking, look no further! You will not be disappointed. She turns an uncomfortable experience into a relaxing one, with her friendly, easy-going demeanor. I trust no one but her to be MY brow gal. read more

This was my first time getting any type of permanent cosmetic done, and Charnae made it a very easy, pleasant experience! I wasn't sure what shape of brows I wanted or how I wanted them done, but she was very patient with me and answered all the questions I had. She took her time drawing in my eyebrows and I appreciated that. I really felt like she put her heart into getting it just right. She has a passion for what she does and it shows! I would recommend her in a heartbeat! read more

Love Love Love Charnae!! Previously had my brows tattooed over 10 years ago and when it healed you could barely tell and I never got to really enjoy them. I'm so glad I found this awesome artist! I debated over and over if I wanted to get them redone but always felt the same thing would happen and waste my money again but took the chance and man am I grateful that I did!! She's very professional and is very good at what she does, a great perfectionist which is exactly what you want when someone is tattooing your face!! My brows turned out amazing and it was painless, she numbs you pretty good and is always checking to make sure you are not feeling any pain, she's a great conversationalist and makes you so comfortable that you feel like you've known her forever!!! She thoroughly walks you through everything from before you start to what to expect during and what to expect after and through healing so there are no surprises. It's been a few weeks and my eyebrows have since healed and look great!! Getting ready in the mornings is a piece of cake now not having to draw my eyebrows in anymore so so happy! Planning on going back soon to make them a little more darker but I am so in love with them!! Eyebrows on fleek all the time!! Charnae is amazing and you will not regret it I promise!!! read more

Beauty Ink Permanent Cosmetics - Immediately after just getting home. Really dark until the healing starts and fades to a more natural color. - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

Oh my I don't know where to start!!! Well I've been through it all none good all bad & ugly. When people say to do your research honey it is a must if not you'll end up like me I went to 2 different techs and they were horrible. I was forced to do my daily routine of covering it up & balancing my eyebrows because they were so crooked, pink and unbalanced...Yes I know my brows will never be symmetrical but mine were crazy it was ugly I was so ashamed of them you would never catch me out of the house without it drawn in...I was so unhappy with my brows I honestly told myself I wouldn't go to anyone again I didn't trust anyone...until I found this wonderful gem Char she is amazing and such a sweetheart I'm so blessed to have met her she is a life saver I love love her work she's a wonderful artist so professional and talented. So as my brows started to heal I noticed how beautiful they were I couldn't believe my eyeballs I honestly teared up it was an emotional moment for me like I said she's a life saver. I still can't believe how beautiful they are, my daily routines are cut short, I'm a mommy of 3 little ones so yes life is easier now, I'm practically up & out of the house these girlies don't need to be touched they are beauties thanks to Char and her amazing talent! She will forever be my Brow Guru! read more

5 star all the way. Charnae was referred by a friend. I'm so glad I went. She is very professional and sweet. I highly recommend her services. I love my brows. 7 months and it still looks great! This was my first time and will definitely go back to her when it's time. Quality work all the way! Thank Char! read more

If you're a tattoo "virgin" like me and a little nervous about the whole process, not to worry! Char is AWESOME! She takes her time to talk about the look you want to achieve, what to expect, shaping before you start...etc. the process was so easy and not at all uncomfortable. I'm so happy with my results and should've done my brows years ago! Thank you Char!! read more

Char is amazingly skilled in the art of permanent cosmetics! I have gone to her for my eyebrows (powdered and hairstroke) and eyelash enhancer. She does consistent, quality work and I have left with wonderful results each and every time! She is the only permanent makeup specialist that I trust with my face! read more

Charnae did such a great job fixing my bad brow tattoo. I wish I had done it sooner. She was thorough with her explanations and was very patient. She made sure I was happy with her draw ups and was extremely gentle with the treatment. read more

Charnae was amazing!! I was very hesitate at first but then decided to do it. Charnae was thorough at explaining and put me at ease. The procedure was painless - she always made sure that I was comfortable. When it was done I looked at my brows and I was like "oh" and I guess she saw my expression. Once again she put me at ease and said wait a couple weeks it'll look fine. Boom a couple weeks passed and I have never been more pleased with the end results. I highly recommend Charnae on permanent makeup. Oh and she did my eyeliner tattoo - again she was amazing. Keep up the good work Charnae - you are awesome!! read more

Very poor customer service. I've been a customer for several years. She prefers to receive texts, but she does not text back. I've texted her multiple times this PAST YEAR, with no response. I also know for a fact that she has taken on new customers and she has also serviced these new customers multiple times. read more

Char is amazing! I love love love her! She's definitely my savior. My eyebrows were terrible since I previously went to Kathy. She corrected my eyebrows that were supposedly corrected by Kathy. Lol! I wish she was the first to touch my eyebrows. Definitely recommend her to everyone :) & there's never a dull moment with Char. Lol! 3 thumbs up... read more

Charnae is awesome at what she does! When I first went I was terrified of the tattoo eyeliner being sore! Hearing horror stories from friends who went elsewhere! That being said it was not painful at all! She's sweet, patient and very knowledgable at what she does! I would highly recommend her if you're thinking of getting any kind of permanent makeup!! read more

Charnae is so sweet. She took a lot of time with me and really wanted to be sure I was happy with what I got. My lash enhancement came out very natural looking. When it was not dark enough to my liking, she happily invited me back to darken it for me just to be sure I was satisfied. I know word will spread and she will be busier and busier so I have to schedule doing my eyebrows soon I think. read more

I had very positive experience! First of all, very clean facility. Char is very professional, helpful and talented. I trusted her instantly, she had great recommendations and did wonderful job enhancing my brows in a way where they still look very natural. I also had eyeliner done, beautiful liner...subtle and just beautiful. It wasn't real painful for me, just slightly uncomfortable. So worth the money, which is already reasonable in comparison with island prices. read more
