Update - May 18, 2020:
On May 18, 2020, under Executive Order GA-23, Governor Greg Abbott lifted the order on Massage Personal-Care/Licensed Persons, Tattoo Studios/Permanent Makeup, etc. effective immediately. Therefore, both Allen and Denton locations are reopening with limited schedule. Appointments would be available in Allen on Thursdays, and in Denton on Tuesdays. Additional weekdays would become available as the demand for permanent makeup service increases.
Everyones safety is our top priority. As we resume the service, we would take necessary steps including more frequent vigorous cleaning, making sanitizer available for clients, and watching our clients for signs or symptoms of illness at the entrance. To protect ourselves and our loved ones, and to continue fighting this pandemic, we are requesting our clients to follow a few guidelines including following Minimum Standard Health Protocols by State of Texas prior to leaving home, coming alone (no family members or friends that are not receiving services), wearing mask inside the building, and to disinfect hands upon entering the facility.
We look forward to welcoming you!

Update - March 31, 2020:
Governor Greg Abbott today issued an Executive Order implementing Essential Services and Activities Protocols for the entire state of Texas. The protocols direct all Texans to minimize non-essential gatherings and in-person contact with people who are not in the same household.
Therefore, as of April 1, Gold Permanent Makeup's Allen location would be closed as well until further notice. All affected clients are being contacted to cancel their appointments at this time.
We would reopen both location after the coronavirus pandemic is overcome, and the federal, state, and county level restrictions are lifted.

Update - March 28, 2020:
Addressing the spread of COVID-19, Collin County has enacted a "stay at home/work safe" approach which stops short of full shelter-in-place policy observed by Dallas and other major cities.
Gold Permanent Makeup Allen location, therefore, will remain open and appointments would be scheduled accordingly. In order to maintain the 6 ft distance, no visitors would be permitted in the room with the client (who is receiving the permanent makeup service).
