Who Should Book a Yearly Touch-Up in Salem, NH, and Who Should Not?
A Yearly Touch-Up in Salem, NH suits clients near Route 97 whose pigment has visibly faded roughly a year after the original procedure. It is not right for anyone still inside the perfecting-session window, or anyone pregnant, breastfeeding, or currently using isotretinoin.

- Not a fit: anyone pregnant, breastfeeding, or under 18, at either studio
- Not yet: still inside the 6- to 8-week perfecting-session window (call to confirm), or isotretinoin, blood thinners, or autoimmune conditions without clearance. See the contraindications guide

A Yearly Touch-Up appointment at the Salem studio starts with an assessment of how much original pigment remains, sets the final price on that assessment, then refreshes color under topical numbing.

A Yearly Touch-Up in Salem, NH starts at $300. The exact price depends on how much of the original pigment remains, which the artist assesses at the appointment; there is no fixed ceiling published in advance, since fading varies from client to client.
The perfecting session is included in the original procedure price and happens once, 6 to 8 weeks after the first appointment, to correct early healing. The Yearly Touch-Up is a separate, paid visit from $300, scheduled about 12 months later to refresh pigment that has naturally faded since then.

No. Salem has no passenger rail station, and MBTA Commuter Rail ends at Lowell and Haverhill, both in Massachusetts. Clients from Methuen or Haverhill drive to the Salem, NH studio for their Yearly Touch-Up appointment instead, since no rail extension is under construction.
Yes. New Hampshire licenses body art practitioners at the state level under RSA 314-A. The Town of Salem separately licenses both the studio and the artist under Salem Chapter 433, so two levels of licensing apply here, unlike Wilmington's single town-only permit.
Yes. The Salem studio offers payment plans through Cherry Technologies, an independent financing provider separate from Adriana's Permanent Makeup. Options include 4 interest-free payments or a longer plan up to 24 months with interest. Approval is not guaranteed; Cherry sets the terms, not the studio.

Yearly Touch-Up is quoted at the consultation rather than listed at a fixed price, because the work needed changes from face to face. Every other service is published openly, from $250 to $850, on the price list, so you can see the range the studio works in before you book anything.
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.

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.
★★★★★
I was looking around for the BEST in permanent brows and I'm thankful I was referred to Adriana by a good friend who has amazing eyebrows (that I thought was natural :). I'm astonished by my NANO brows by Adriana. She gave me natural, full, symmetrical brows that complement my face shape and natural eyebrow color. My brows look so much better in pictures, and I dont need to fill in any parts with makeup anymore. Even though I think they are already perfect, I look forward to my second session touch-up with Adriana because from my first session, I saw that she is truly an expert with blessed hands and she'll KNOW what finishing touches I need. 10/10 experience and results.
★★★★★
Today I had my appointment for an eyebrow touch-up with Livy. This is the third time I've had my eyebrows done by her and as always, everything was very clean. She was very kind and professional, like the entire team that works there. I was very happy with the results of my eyebrows. Thank you, Livy, for my transformation.
