Brow Options
We have different options for different requirements when it comes to brows.
- Microblading
- Tinting
- Henna brows
- Ombre & Powder brows coming soon
Henna Brows
Henna is a less permanent option.
Much like tinting – however, lasts longer on the skin and hair – you will get up to 4 weeks wear on the hair with Henna
What are powder brows?
Powder brows also known as Ombre or shaded brows are a semi-permanent makeup procedure. Pigment is placed in the upper layers of the skin to give a longer lasting brow shape.
What is Microblading?
Microblading is a hair simulation technique done with a blade in a manual hand tool
How long does the procedure take?
The procedure takes approximately 2 hours, this includes numbing time
Does the procedure hurt?
No, everyone has different levels of sensitivity, however numbing is done before and during the treatment to ensure client comfort
How long does it last?
Powder brows last between 12 and 18 months, this differs from person to person as daily activities vary. A colour refresh is recommended every 12 to 18 months
What is the healing process like?
The brows will flake an peel, with very light scabbing as we aim to get very little blood during the procedure. This process should naturally be complete between 7 to 10 days
Will I need a touch up?
You will require a 6 week touch up after your initial appointment as powder brows is a 2 step process
Microblading
Trained internationally in London with Phi Brows Microblading Academy
PhiBrows is a manual skill of semi-permanent eyebrow drawing. Shape of the eyebrows is calculated according to the golden intersection (phi 1.618) and face morphology. The pigment is applied into the surface layer of the dermis using sterilized tools.
The pigment is chosen so to match the natural hair or eyebrows’ colour. After the healing, the colour may become several shades lighter that the natural hairs colour.
Symmetry is achieved through PhiBrows application and it is calculated while the clients’ eyes are closed because in that way mimetic muscles that can affect eyebrows’ symmetry are relaxed.
Strokes are always drawn in the direction of natural hairs’ growth to achieve hyper-realistic look.
Treatment is performed with disposable sterile tools (PhiBrush), and pigments are produced in accordance with the highest standards (PhiBrows microblading pigments).
Correction is done a month after the treatment because between 10 and 15% of drawn strokes disappear after the first treatment.
Colour is extremely dark during the first 5 to 7 days. 7 days later, it loses 40 to 50% of its intensity. If you think the colour is too dark, do not try to remove it yourself by no means. Patiently wait 7 days for the colour to fade on its own after the healing of the skin.
Color duration primarily depends on how oily the skin is. The oilier the skin, the shorter the colour lasts. Sweating and sun exposure also reduce colour fastness.
On average, expected time until a new colour refreshment is between 6 and 12 months. With oily skin it is up to 6 months.
The healing is fully completed after 28 days and this is when we perform an obligatory addition of the pigment that has been lost. With problematic and oily skins, we can have several additions (corrections).
Post-treatment flow makes 70% of the treatment’s success. Conscientiously obey advice, because if you don’t do so you may lose up to 80% of drawn strokes. Rinsing and applying creams is of great importance.
Pain during the treatment is relative. Scared clients and clients who have their period usually feel stronger pain, while the other clients compare the pain to the one they feel when plucking eyebrows. It is possible to use mild anesthetics in form of cream or liquid that can entirely eliminate the pain during the treatment.
The success of the treatment depends on the: – skin quality – post-treatment flow and care – exposure to different external factors
All of these factors are out of the artist’s control, so any possibility to provide guarantees for the treatment is excluded.
Always have a consultation before the treatment if you:
- have problematic skin
- have serious health problems
- take some medicines
- have existing old permanent make-up on your eyebrows.
Get familiar with the post-treatment flow thoroughly before the treatment.
The skin must not be in the inflammatory process or the process of healing and regeneration before each treatment.
The following treatments are not recommended 30 days before the treatment:
- botox and fillers
- fruit or milk acids
- laser treatments
- chemical peelings
- exposure to strong sunlight
Prior to scheduling the treatment, make sure you are familiar with information on the treatment, post-treatment care and the artists guarantee
