How Does a Top Eyeliner Appointment Work at the Salem Studio?
A Salem top eyeliner appointment starts with a consultation and lash-line mapping, where the line’s thickness is chosen before any pigment goes in, moves into the procedure itself under topical numbing, and ends with written aftercare instructions. The perfecting session follows 6 to 8 weeks later, once healing is complete, at no extra charge.
- Consultation and health-history intake, including contact lens removal
- Lash-line mapping, where thickness is chosen together, from barely-there to a defined tail
- The procedure, with a sterile single-use needle
- Written aftercare instructions to take home
- Perfecting session, 6 to 8 weeks later, included in the $350
Why Book Top Eyeliner at the Salem, NH Studio Specifically?
New Hampshire licenses body art practitioners at the state level under RSA 314-A, unlike Massachusetts’ town-by-town system, and the Town of Salem separately licenses both the artist and the studio under Salem Chapter 433. The studio sits on Route 97, reachable from Methuen, Windham, Pelham, Haverhill, and North Andover within about 8.7 miles.
Main Street is New Hampshire Route 97 along its full length. Salem has no passenger rail station. MBTA Commuter Rail ends at Lowell and Haverhill, in Massachusetts.

What Backs the Artist Performing Top Eyeliner in Salem?
Adriana Souza Santos, the Master Permanent Makeup Artist performing top eyeliner at the Salem studio, has completed more than 5,000 procedures and trained more than 300 students over a 20-plus year career, holds an AAM Diamond Certified Trainer credential, and consults in both English and Portuguese.
Will Top Eyeliner Look Like Makeup Every Day, and Is an MRI a Concern?
The most common hesitation about top eyeliner is whether it will look like makeup in every photo, forever. It does not have to: the thickness is chosen at mapping, before any pigment goes in, so clients who want a barely-there lash enhancement and clients who want a defined line both get exactly that, on purpose.
The American Academy of Dermatology documents that eyeliner pigment can rarely react during an MRI : burning, tingling, or swelling, and advises telling the technician beforehand; see the aftercare guide.
Frequently Asked Questions About Top Eyeliner in Salem, NH
Top Eyeliner in Salem, NH is performed at 117A Main Street, Salem, NH 03079, reached at (978) 223-7496. The studio is open Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., closed Sunday. A different address and phone number than the Wilmington, MA studio.
Top Eyeliner in Salem, NH costs $350, and that price already includes the perfecting session 6 to 8 weeks after the procedure. A yearly touch-up, from $300, follows roughly 12 months later. Cherry offers 4 interest-free payments or a longer plan; approval is not guaranteed.
The thickness is your choice, made together at the mapping appointment before any pigment goes in. Options range from a soft lash enhancement, where pigment sits between the lashes and no line is visible, up to a fully defined line with a winged tail. There is no single standard look. Mapping sets it in advance.
Either works. Top Eyeliner alone defines the upper lash line for $350. Adding Bottom Eyeliner brings subtle lower-lash definition, and the two together cost $600 booked separately or $500 as the Eyeliner Combo, a $100 saving and one healing period instead of two.
Yes, it is the option most first-time clients choose. The thickness decision happens at mapping, before the procedure starts, so there is no guessing after the fact. Clients who are unsure can start subtle and, at a future appointment, request more definition instead.
Yes. Contact lenses come out for the top eyeliner appointment; the studio says how long to leave them out after. Separately, the AAD documents that eyeliner pigment can rarely react during an MRI with burning, tingling, or swelling; tell the technician beforehand and ask them to stop the scan.
Yes. The Salem studio offers payment plans for the $350 top eyeliner price through Cherry Technologies, an independent financing provider, not the studio. Options include 4 interest-free payments or a longer plan up to 24 months with interest. Approval is not guaranteed; Cherry sets the terms.
Yes. The Eyeliner Combo costs $500 for both the upper and lower lash line in one Salem appointment, while Top Eyeliner at $350 plus Bottom Eyeliner at $250 booked separately add up to $600. Clients who want both lines from the start save $100 by booking the combo up front.
Yes. Cherry offers 4 interest-free payments, or a longer plan of up to 24 months with interest. Checking your options takes about a minute and uses a soft credit check, so it does not affect your credit score. Cherry is an independent financing provider: it sets approval and rates, not the studio. See how the payment plan works.
The perfecting session exists for exactly that. It is scheduled 6 to 8 weeks after the first appointment, once the skin has healed, and it is included in the original price at no extra charge. Pigment settles differently on different skin, so the second pass is part of the procedure rather than a repair you pay for.
Most clients book a colour refresh every 12 to 24 months; how long the pigment itself lasts depends on the technique and your skin (each service page gives its own range). After that, a yearly touch-up refreshes the colour from $300, priced by how much pigment is left rather than at a flat rate. That is a separate visit from the perfecting session, which is included in the original price and happens in the first weeks.
Yes. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, being under 18, and current isotretinoin use are refused at both studios, with no exception. Blood thinners, autoimmune conditions and a history of keloid scarring need clearance from your doctor first. The full list is published in the contraindications guide before you book, not after.

The first time I met Adriana, was for a consultation for my eyebrows. I noticed the office was beautifully decorated and everything was clean. During the consultation, Adriana took her time to answer all of my questions, made recommendations, and made me feel confident in my decision. I loved her work so much, that I had not one, but three services done with Adriana! (powder brows, classic eyeliner and lip blush) I highly recommend Adriana. She is a talented, attentive, and skillful artist. She has years of experience and her work speaks for itself. If you have been searching for a master, permanent, makeup artist that is personable, meticulous, knowledgeable, and that will deliver exactly what you expect, then look no further. Thank you Adriana for your beautiful work. ❤️
★★★★★
I had my brows and top eyeliner done with adriana who did an amazing job. I found her page on instagram and booked a consultation appointment first because I wasn’t sure what I needed and wanted her professional opinion. Her and her staff were so kind, patient and welcoming. They answered every question I had and recommended that I do the nano combo brows. 3 weeks later I had my appointment and was stunned by the results. I’m so happy with how they turned out. Adriana was gentle and very meticulous with her craft and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the appointment. I was nervous about the pain for the eyeliner and I ended up falling asleep cause I was so comfortable. I can’t thank them enough for doing such a great job. 10/10 recommendation!
★★★★★
I have been to both locations and they are very clean and decorated beautifully. Adriana did a good job on my eyeliner and I would go back for other services. We went very conservative on the initial appt to make sure that I didn’t feel like it was too much. And added more on the touch up appt. I’m very excited to see how it heals but so far, it’s beautiful.
