Her work travels well on social media, and her reputation for natural-looking results has drawn clients from across the North Tyneside coast to her Houghton-le-Spring studio.
Stanley, Consett, and County Durham Villages
Inland County Durham — Stanley, Consett, Lanchester, Burnhope, and the surrounding pit villages — is another area where Lois has built a loyal following. Clients from these communities often have limited access to high-quality PMU services locally, and Lois’s studio provides a premium option that is worth the drive.
Hebburn, Boldon, and East Durham

This is a relatively rare offering in the PMU world, and it reflects Lois’s commitment to making her services accessible to as many people as possible.
