Tamara D. Ferrigno, MPS, SMP, CPCP

Master Practitioner / Educator · Micropigmentation Specialist

Tamara's path to permanent cosmetics started in the health and beauty world — first in the fitness industry in California, then studying nursing in Fountain Valley — before she found her calling in beauty. She attended nail technical school in 1993 and opened her first salon in 1997 in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, where she was selected by the National Cosmetology Association and Nail Techs of America to teach advanced techniques nationally.

In 2001 she moved to Las Vegas and worked as a master artist in several top casino spas. In 2013 she opened The Mirror Mirror Salon in Henderson and created her own permanent cosmetic studio inside it, MM Permanent Cosmetics. There she developed her signature technique, "The Natural Look," fusing microblading with a soft fill and using a hand-held tool to create fine, crisp, natural-looking hair strokes — a style all her own, shaped by training and techniques gathered from around the world.

Tamara is a Certified Permanent Cosmetic Practitioner (CPCP) with the Society of Permanent Cosmetic Practitioners. Her philosophy is simple: "This is permanent, and it's on your face — your artist has to understand your skin and pigmentation, so the work stays beautiful over time, not just today." She also provides scalp micropigmentation at MMscalp.com.

When she isn't with clients, Tamara is teaching the next generation of artists or attending health and beauty events and advanced classes — always adding to her craft.
