About Tara Pennington, Tattoo Specialist

Tara Pennington interned and taught at Fontaine De'Beaute Institute for two years specializing in Permanent Cosmetics and Paramedical procedures in 2003. She opened her doors to Artistic Enhancements in 2006. As a graduate of ITT Technical Institure of Nashville, Tara has a strong entrepreneurial sense for multimedia art, business management, and sales. She has worked within the permanent cosmetic industry for over a decade, and her work clearly shows her excellence in mastering the techniques of permanent cosmetics. She has been Xtreme Lashes® Certified since 2006, and continuously attends Xtreme Lashes® trainings to add more advanced skills to her already well-published skill set. With her immense knowledge and experience with skin and face, it is no surprise that she also specializes in airbrush and traditional makeup techniques, organic skincare services, eyebrow shaping, and waxing. She has trained many stylists in lash application techniques and skincare procedures, and holds various other trainings and workshops on occasion. Aside from being a business owner and stylist, Tara adores being a mother to Alaina, and is engaged! She has a huge heart for giving her time and services to charities and worthy causes. In the summer, you can often find her volunteering her artistic skills with face painting and henna at festivals and other charity events.
