Hi, I’m Holly.
Permanent makeup artist since 2017. My first studio was in Vancouver, Washington; in 2024 I opened my second studio here in Sarasota, Florida. I specialize in mature skin.
Your face, just more defined
Most women who come to me are not looking for a new face. They want their own brows, lips and eyes back — the way they looked a few years ago — and easier mornings.
That is why I created my own technique: a soft powder effect with no hard lines, made for mature skin, that heals very soft and delicate. I draw every design on you first, and I choose color for how it will look at week 4, year 1 and year 3, not only on the first day.
I tell you the price up front. There is never pressure to book. If permanent makeup is not right for you, I will tell you honestly.

Since 2017
First studio, Vancouver, WA
Started permanent makeup and built a practice on soft, natural results.
Training new artists
Taught new permanent makeup artists technique, color and a gentle approach to clients.
HER Studio, Sarasota
My second studio, focused on mature skin and my own soft-healing technique.
Calm, private, unhurried
Inside SalonPlex in the Publix plaza on N Beneva Rd. One client at a time, time to ask questions, and a design you approve before we start.
