A little about the shop...

The  Painted Tulip is a legal home based studio/salon separated but attached to my home. My shop is inspected by the State Board of Cosmetology just like any other salon. In addition, the shop is inspected by the Guilford County Health Dept yearly for the Permanent Makeup (tattooing) services. I work by appointment only and leave enough time so you will not feel rushed during your visits with me.

I've been a certified permanent makeup specialist since 2001. I am also licensed as a nail tech (1994) and esthetician (2005). Click on the links above for more info on the services and see photos of a few of my permanent makeup clients.

When I'm not working on clients, I try to find a little time to work on my art and photography. Visit the SHOP website to more of my photography and jewelry online.

 Please feel free to contact me by phone and leave a message or text. (I return calls in between appts) or drop me an email if you have any questions or would like to book an appointment.

Thanks so much,
Melissa Bittinger
