Cosmetic tattoo ARTIST
A permanent makeup artist specialising in eyebrows. I offer three brow treatments the ombre brow, the hairstroke brow (also known as nano and realism), and the combination brow.
Please note these three treatments are cosmetic tattoos.
Brow Types
-
Ombré Brows
The Ombre brow has been created to mimic the look of an eyebrow tint stain and is the most defined brow style out of the 3, they are more dense in colour at the tail and arch of the brow and they soften towards the front of the brow to create a gentle faded look.
-
Combination Brows
The Combination brow is a mixture of ombre and hairstrokes, the brow starts with fine hairstrokes at the front and softly blends into an ombre brow throughout the arch and tail. This style is perfect for anyone who wants the density of the ombre brow throughout but likes a fluffier front to their brows.
-
Hair Stroke Brows
The Hairstroke brow is the most natural of all 3 brow styles, there is absolutely no shading just fine line work to create the look of natural hairs. The hair stroke pattern will follow the direction that your natural eyebrow hairs grow, this will create the look of a fuller and fluffier brow.

About
My name is Michelle Moran, and I specialise in permanent makeup – also known as cosmetic tattooing.
I'm currently based in South Shields, in the North East of England, but I'm also available for bookings in Bournemouth, in the South West, a few times per year.
For over six years, I’ve been transforming eyebrows and now specialise in machine brows, offering uniquely bespoke treatments such as ombré, combination, and hair strokes.
Whether you're looking for perfectly styled brows every day or want to add a little extra volume to your natural shape, I create results tailored specifically to you – whether that’s a fluffier, softer finish or a more defined and structured look. Each treatment is meticulously customised to suit your individual features and preferences.
I consider myself a perfectionist and genuinely enjoy sculpting my clients’ brows and helping them feel more confident in themselves.
Alongside cosmetic tattooing, I also design and create illustrative, ornamental, and fine-line custom tattoo work. You can view my custom tattoo portfolio here.
I also offer a laser tattoo removal service for over-saturated or old brows, as well as for unwanted tattoo work.
Please feel free to get in touch by email or phone with any enquiries about the services I offer.

LASER TATTOO REMOVAL
I offer professional laser removal for both tattoos and permanent makeup here at the studio. Whether you're looking to fade, fully remove, or correct old ink, I provide a safe and tailored treatment in a calm, clean environment.
