What moves the price
- Complexity of the design — a hair-stroke or combination brow design takes longer to map and shade than soft powder brows.
- Experience of the technician — cosmetic tattoo training has to be paid for, and the rate reflects it.
- Location of the studio — cosmetic tattoo studios in the cities tend to charge more than those in smaller towns.
- Area being treated — eyebrow tattooing, lip blushing and eyeliner are each priced as separate treatments.
Hairdressing salons and personal grooming establishments prices in Ireland are up 22% over five years (CSO Consumer Price Index, Hairdressing salons and personal grooming establishments, to 2025 December). Five years ago a typical cosmetic tattoo would have cost about €290 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: CSO CPM18, CPM12 →

How to pay less
- Booking a colour boost before the pigment fades fully costs less than a full new cosmetic tattoo treatment later.
- Soft powder brows or a natural lip blush can cost less than a detailed design, so you can ask what each would cost.
- Following the aftercare while the cosmetic tattoo heals helps the pigment settle, so fewer paid touch-ups are needed.
- A touch-up costs less than a full cosmetic tattoo treatment, so you can ask whether the first touch-up is included in the price.
- Some studios price brows and lip blushing booked together lower than each on its own; it helps to ask.
Before you book
- A list of any allergies or skin sensitivities you may have.
- Photos of the brow, lip or eyeliner look you want, to talk through at the consultation.
- Mention any skin conditions, scars or previous tattooing in the area, as they can change how the pigment takes.
- Photo ID showing your age, in case the cosmetic tattoo studio asks for it before treatment.
- You can ask whether the cosmetic tattoo technician is trained in brow, lip and eyeliner work, and to see healed photos of their tattooing.
