What is Fine Line Tattooing?

Why Fine Line Tattooing is Becoming a Popular Service for PMU Artists?

As the beauty industry evolves, permanent makeup (PMU) artists are expanding their skill sets beyond brows, lips, and eyeliner to offer fine line body tattoos. This shift is fueled by the rising demand for delicate, minimalist body art, which aligns with the precision and subtlety that PMU artists already master.

Fine line tattooing is a natural extension of PMU because:

  • It requires a steady hand and refined technique—skills PMU artists already have.

  • The same machine and needle techniques used for PMU apply to fine line tattoos.

  • Clients who love natural PMU enhancements often seek fine line tattoos for their body.

  • It offers an additional revenue stream without requiring a completely new set of tools.

With their expertise in precision, fine detailing, and working on delicate areas of the skin, PMU artists are uniquely positioned to excel in fine line tattooing. Whether offering tiny script tattoos, floral designs, or micro tattoos, adding fine line tattooing to your services can attract a wider clientele and set you apart in the beauty industry.

Now, let’s dive into what fine line tattooing is, how it works, and how to perfect the technique.

Important Update: Discontinuation of LVL Patch Test Kits

As an official stockist of Nouveau Lashes, we wanted to make you aware of an important update regarding their patch test kits.  

As lash industry leaders, Nouveau Lashes have always taught the importance of patch testing to ensure client safety and maintain professionalism.  

However, due to guidance from the Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), Nouveau Lashes have now ceased production and sale of their LVL Patch Test Kits. Although these are loved by many artists for offering an easy, convenient patch test solution, this discontinuation of patch test kits is a directive from the MHRA that must be followed to ensure compliance. 

Please note: this does not change Nouveau Lashes’ current guidelines on patch testing.
