Beautiful permanent makeup that still feels like you

Hi, I'm Linda, the artist behind Defined by Linda, a semi-permanent makeup studio in Clifton, Bristol. I specialise in soft shaded brows, combination brows, microblading, lip blush and eyeliner tattoo treatments, helping women achieve soft, balanced and long-lasting results that feel effortless and true to them.

My signature style focuses on soft healed results that look elegant, balanced and timeless, never harsh or overly saturated. Using delicate layers of soft pixel shading, I create brows that add definition, fullness and symmetry while still looking natural in everyday life. Every treatment is tailored to your facial features, your skin type, your natural brow pattern and the level of definition you actually want.

Many clients come to me worried that the results will look too dark, too heavy or unnatural, or simply unsure what would suit them. That is exactly where my approach is different. Every treatment begins with a detailed consultation, and brows are carefully mapped, shaped and colour-matched to your natural features. Appointments are carried out in a calm, one-to-one environment. Nothing is rushed, and you are guided through each step so you always feel informed and reassured.

I also specialise in removal and correction, which is a large part of what I do. Alongside laser and saline removal for brows and body tattoos, I offer specialist lip blush and eyeliner removal, treatments that are not widely available in Bristol and the surrounding areas. I took my advanced removal training with Alexandra Mechenici of Fade Ink, and I continue to train annually to keep my techniques current.

If you are still unsure, you are very welcome to book a no-obligation consultation before committing to any treatment. It is a relaxed, no-pressure chat where you can ask questions, talk through any concerns and explore the most suitable option for you. You will leave with a clear understanding of what to expect, and whether it feels right for you.

What clients say about Linda

I would like to thank Linda for doing such an amazing job transforming my eyebrows, which I would normally have to pencil in every day. I had them done just over a week ago and I'm so pleased with the end result after my first appointment. I had the soft shaded brows which look very natural. Linda is a true professional and kept me informed throughout the process. Thank you Linda!

Patricia Varano

Would highly recommend Linda. I was so nervous before my appointment but there was no need to be. Linda put me at ease as soon as I arrived. I love my brows. The whole experience has been amazing. Linda is always on hand to answer any questions I have had after my treatment. Thank you so much.

Jo Oubridge

It's only been 24 hours since my appointment but I am very pleased with my new look. Linda fully explained the procedure and aftercare, I felt in very safe hands. Highly recommend.

Gwyneth Pearcy

I have had two procedures with Linda, my brows and my lips, and I am delighted with the results. Linda was very helpful in discussing my needs before even starting. She was very gentle; I am somewhat of a wimp when it comes to needles. Linda was super friendly and I felt relaxed. I'd highly recommend Linda.

Jan Huckle

Linda is so friendly, very honest and reassuring. Answered any concerns and questions I had. Clean and relaxing environment. Lots of positive comments on how good my eyebrows look. I couldn't be happier with the results. They are amazing. Would highly recommend Linda.

Nicola Quirke

Absolutely great experience! Linda is professional and experienced which comes through during her brow work. Excellent with those of us who are very blonde, sensitive skin and a bit cautious! Linda has a number of options which will suit anyone who wants natural and great looking brows. Thank you Linda.

Jennifer Marks

A fantastic experience and amazing results. Linda is brilliant at microblading and shading, delivering exactly what was discussed with total precision. If you want top-quality work, look no further.

Kile Sheerhan

Would highly recommend Defined by Linda. I had my brows microbladed last September by Linda and I'm so pleased with them. They look so natural, and I've received so many compliments on how good my eyebrows look, after having very sparse ones for so long. Linda takes time to discuss and explain the whole procedure, to achieve the desired result.

Roberta Harris

I finally took the plunge and had my eyebrows done after putting it off for about six months. After years of over-plucking in the 80s, I had no definite brows at all. I was a little apprehensive but Linda just puts you at ease as soon as you walk in. She explains the procedure very clearly and listens to what shape you require. I am very pleased with mine. I would definitely recommend Linda to friends or family.
