Introducing a message from the heart of our business, Jen Briel, Owner and Founder.

When I founded Altered Aesthetics back in 2017, I never imagined we'd be here in 2024, thriving in a spacious storefront in North Raleigh. What began as a modest 100 sq ft studio has blossomed into something truly extraordinary.

Hailing from sunny Southern California, my love for beauty and art has always been a driving force. After relocating to North Carolina in 2013, I found my passion in cosmetic tattooing. I'm dedicated to excellence, constantly pushing boundaries through ongoing education and a portfolio that speaks volumes.

At Altered Aesthetics, we're all about crafting an exceptional experience for our clients. Our space is clean, comfortable, and infused with a touch of fun, ensuring every visit is a memorable one.

At Altered Aesthetics, our goal is simple: to empower everyone who walks through our doors with beauty and confidence. Whether it's achieving flawless brows, rosy lips, or soft shadow eyeliner, we're all about creating that effortless, wake-up-and-go look for your everyday life.

What fuels us at Altered Aesthetics is the opportunity to boost the confidence of both women and men through the art of cosmetic tattooing. We're thrilled you're here exploring our services, and if you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out. We can't wait to welcome you and help you shine!

With so much dang love,

Jen
