Brow Treatments

What is a brow tint?

A brow tint is a semi-permanent dye applied to the brows to darken the hairs and make them appear fuller. It can enhance the shape and colour of your brows, creating a more defined look without the need for makeup.

What is a hybrid stain?

A hybrid stain is a combination of tint and a special staining formula that not only colours the brow hairs but also stains the skin underneath. This gives a longer-lasting, fuller look that can last up to 7-10 days on the skin and up to 6 weeks on the hairs, depending on your skin type and aftercare.

What is brow waxing and shaping?

Brow waxing is a method of hair removal where warm wax is applied to unwanted brow hairs and quickly removed to give a clean, defined look. Shaping refers to using a mapping technique to determine the most flattering brow shape for your face, ensuring the best result for your features without excessively plucking or over-shaping.

What is brow lamination?

Brow lamination is a treatment that involves relaxing and then fixing the brow hairs using a special solution to make them appear fuller, and in a more defined shape. It’s perfect for those with unruly, sparse, or coarse brows and helps to create a smooth, brushed-up look. The results last around 6-8 weeks.

How long do the results last for each treatment?

• Brow tint typically lasts 3-6 weeks depending on your hair type and aftercare.

• Hybrid stain lasts 7-10 days on the skin and 4-6 weeks on the brow hairs.

• Brow waxing and shaping lasts around 3-4 weeks, depending on your natural hair growth.

• Brow lamination lasts about 6-8 weeks, as it depends on your natural hair growth cycle and how well you care for your brows.

Can I still wear makeup after brow treatments?

Yes! However, avoid applying makeup or rubbing your brows for 24 hours after any tinting, hybrid stain, or lamination treatment to allow the products to set fully. After this, you can resume your regular makeup routine.

How should I take care of my brows after treatment?

For all brow treatments, here are a few general aftercare tips:

• Avoid getting your brows wet for the first 24 hours to allow the tint, stain, or lamination to set.

• Avoid oil-based makeup removers around the brow area as they can break down the tint or stain.

• For brow lamination, try to avoid rubbing or scratching your brows to keep them in shape.

• Use a brow serum or conditioning gel to keep the hairs nourished, especially after brow lamination.

Can I get brow treatments if I have sparse or over-plucked brows?

Yes, brow tint, hybrid stain, and lamination are great options for clients with sparse, over-plucked, or unruly brows. Each treatment can help enhance your natural shape, fill in gaps, and give the appearance of fuller, more defined brows. Lamination is especially helpful for taming brow hairs that grow in different directions.

How long does the treatment take?

• Brow tint or hybrid stain typically takes about 15-20 minutes.

• Brow waxing and shaping takes around 20-30 minutes, depending on how much shaping is required.

• Brow lamination takes around 45 minutes for the full process.

Do I need a patch test for brow lamination?

Yes, a patch test is required for brow lamination at least 24 hours before your appointment to ensure there are no allergic reactions to the products used.

What if I have damaged or over-plucked brows?

If your brows have been damaged or over-plucked, reshaping them can be a process that takes a few sessions to fully restore their natural shape. Brow lamination can help tame unruly hairs and make them appear fuller, but it’s important to give your brows time to grow back in between appointments. Please avoid tweezing or over-plucking between treatments—leave the shaping to me! I’ll help guide you through the best approach to reshape and restore your brows to their natural beauty over time.
