I got mine done by Kim Forsberg, and here is the link to her website:

Semi-Permanent Cosmetic Tattoos | This Makeup Girl | Florida | New York City

She works out of a dentist's office across the parking lot from The Villages hospital.

I am extremely pleased with the result. She spends quite a bit of time working with you on the shape and design. Once you are both happy, she puts a numbing cream on your eyebrows and you relax for about thirty minutes. Then she starts to do the tattoo. It feels like she is scratching your eyebrows with a tiny comb. The tattoo part takes about thirty minutes. Then she puts Vaseline on your eyebrows, which you have to keep reapplying for three days. On the third day you go back for a touch up.

She did such a good job my husband did not notice I'd had it done -- he thought my brows were the result of my usual fifteen minutes with the brow gel, pencil, filler, etc. She told me that usually ladies come back for a touch up every year, but that I would probably need to come more often because I use exfoliating products and have peels on a regular basis.

There are other eyebrow artists in The Villages, and some are better than others. I highly recommend you do your homework. One person's aesthetic is another person's RuPaul's Drag Race.

May the force be with you.
