What Sets Feather & Blade Apart

Founded in 2016 by cosmetic tattoo artist Holly Meredith, Feather & Blade is rooted in the belief that confidence starts with feeling like yourself. With studios in Lexington and Louisville, Kentucky, we’ve grown into a space where intention meets artistry—where natural-looking enhancements are designed to uplift, not overwhelm.

Feather & Blade is powered by the relationships we’ve built with our clients and buoyed by the lives and stories of women. Empowerment through confidence is at the heart of everything we do.

So, what truly sets us apart?

Tailored, Not Template

No two faces are the same—your cosmetic tattoo shouldn’t be either. Our artists specialize in fully customized enhancements designed to complement your unique bone structure, skin tone, and personal style. From our signature Bespoke Brows to lip blushing, freckles, and beauty marks, every detail is thoughtfully mapped and meticulously applied.

A Client-First Experience

From the moment you walk through our doors, our mission is to make you feel seen, heard, and cared for. Our studios are calm, elevated, and welcoming. We uphold the highest standards of hygiene and safety, and we guide you with transparency and support through every step of your journey.

Empowerment Through Confidence

At our core, we aim to simplify your beauty routine while enhancing what’s already there. We believe that when you feel good about how you look, it changes everything. That’s what drives us—not just great results, but the ripple effect of confidence they create.

 What Our Clients Are Saying

“I have nothing but amazing things to say about Feather and Blade! Katy did my brows, and I couldn’t be more impressed with her talent and professionalism. She was so thorough and did a wonderful job of explaining the entire process to me!”
— Emily D.

“I had the best experience with Holly! She is clean, thoughtful, talented, and precise. She is personable and professional. I love my brows! My only regret is not going to her sooner. She also makes really bomb food recommendations ;)”
— Charlotte S.

“My eyebrows started falling out over a two-year period, and by the time I came to Feather and Blade, I didn’t have any left. Katy studied my facial expressions and, after two sessions, created unbelievably natural-looking brows. My friends kept leaning in to get a closer look—they were amazed. Thank you, Katy! I love having eyebrows again.”
— Becky

Katana did WONDERS for my brows! Literally saved me so much time doing my makeup in the morning. These girls are bettering lives one procedure at a time:) I love Feather & Blade!
