Skin Care Consulting

Skin Care Consulting, Inc. has been a cornerstone of the Roanoke community since 2004, dedicated to providing top-tier skin care and permanent cosmetics services. Founded by Melinda Kantor after a transformative career change, the practice was born from her unwavering passion for empowering people through skin care education and promoting a sense of inner confidence. Envisioning a space that felt welcoming and accessible, Melinda refurbished a charming building in Historic Old Southwest, creating a haven where clients could embark on their journey to healthier, more radiant skin.

Since its inception, Skin Care Consulting has embraced the notion that true beauty is a reflection of both inner and outer well-being. Guided by this philosophy, Melinda meticulously curates a selection of the most effective and advanced skin care products, offering expert guidance and personalized consultations to help clients achieve their specific skin care goals. Her commitment to lifelong learning ensures that she remains at the forefront of the industry, constantly exploring new technologies and techniques to elevate her clients' experiences.

Family Affair

Skin Care Consulting represents more than just a trusted source for skin care; it's a family affair. Melinda's oldest daughter, Jordan, who graduated with a BFA in Painting and Printmaking from VCUarts in 2015, joined the practice, bringing her artistic talents and passion for aesthetics to the team. Jordan's artistry shines through in her skillful execution of permanent cosmetic procedures, specifically eyebrow tattooing and 3D areola tattooing. Her meticulous attention to detail and commitment to crafting natural, beautifully defined results have made her a sought-after artist in the field of permanent cosmetics.

This dynamic mother-daughter duo works in perfect harmony, combining their shared dedication to client care with their individual expertise, creating a unique and nurturing environment where clients feel valued and empowered.

Permanent Cosmetics: Artful Expertise

Permanent cosmetics, often referred to as semi-permanent makeup, encompass a range of procedures that involve the implantation of pigments into the dermal layer of the skin.

At Skin Care Consulting, understanding that this is a permanent choice, we emphasize transparency and thorough education. We utilize a variety of techniques and tools, including hand-held microblades and specialized tattoo machines, to achieve a customized look that complements each client's natural features.

We offer a wide array of permanent cosmetic solutions, including:

• Eyebrow Tattooing: From fine, natural-looking hairstrokes to bolder, densely pigmented brows, we personalize the treatment to match your desired aesthetic. Hairstrokes, utilizing a microblade or single needle, create the illusion of individual brow hairs, while powdered brows offer a more diffuse, filled-in appearance.

• Eye Liner: Enhance your eyes with a subtle, feline flick, a defined line to accentuate your natural lash line, or a full, dramatic wing. Our precision techniques create a seamless blend of color that complements your eye shape and personal style.

• 3D Areola Tattooing: This sensitive procedure offers a solution for individuals experiencing breast loss due to surgery. By meticulously replicating the natural colors and texture of the areola, we create a more harmonious and confident appearance.

Our commitment to excellence extends beyond the technical aspects of permanent cosmetics. We prioritize a client-centered approach, taking the time to understand your individual goals, address any concerns, and guide you through each step of the process with care and compassion.
