Powder Brows
Powder Brows is a permanent makeup technique that enhances your natural brows by creating a soft, shaded effect—similar to the look of eyebrow powder or pencil once healed. This technique is perfect for those who want effortlessly defined brows without the daily hassle of filling them in. Whether you're heading to the gym, going for a swim, or jetting off on holiday, Powder Brows will stay flawless.
Each client is unique, and every set of brows is tailored to complement your features. Prior to treatment, a consultation is recommended to assess your suitability, discuss your desired results, and review any medical considerations.
Unlike traditional permanent makeup, Powder Brows are designed to fade gradually over time, allowing for adjustments to shape and color as you age. To maintain your fresh, defined look, a Colour Boost session is required every 1-2 years.
Timeline of appointments
First Session
Your brows will be carefully mapped to create a symmetrical, flattering shape and colour. Your brow artist will work closely with you to ensure the design aligns with your preferences checkig in with you before any steps are taken. The initial session typically lasts up to 3 hours, depending on factors such as brow symmetry and existing shape. A numbing agent is applied for comfort, and many clients find the procedure so relaxing they even fall asleep!
Healing Process
This second session is essential for perfecting and locking in the color and shape. During this appointment, any areas that have healed too lightly or unevenly will be adjusted, ensuring your brows have the desired depth and symmetry. This session is crucial for long-term pigment retention and achieving the best results.
Immediately after the first session, your brows will appear darker, thicker, and more defined. Over the first few days, they will darken further before gradually softening as they heal. Expect a fading of up to 50% within 4-6 weeks.
