BROWS
Ombre Brows, also known as Powder Brows, is a form of semi-permanent tattooed makeup. This style can create a soft, natural tint like finish or a more defined, filled-in powdered look. The procedure is done safely with a disposable, single-needle tattoo gun. The longevity of the results varies depending on the individual client and can last 1-5 years before a touch-up is recommended. This style is suitable for clients of all skin types and ages, making it a versatile option for anyone looking to enhance their eyebrows.
Nano Brows are also a form of semi-permanent tattooed make up. Similar to the look of microblading, this technique is less invasive and ideal for most skin types. This is done using a tattoo gun with a very fine needle to create hyper realistic looking hair strokes for added dimension and fullness. This technique can we combined with ombre shading as well.
FAQ
-
WHAT IS THE HEALING PROCESS?Healing time will be approximately 7 days. Immediately after, your lips will appear bright and swollen. Swelling will subside within 24 hours. You will be asked to blot with damp cotton for the first hour to ensure any lymph is removed. You will then begin applying Aquaphor every 30 minutes. Peeling and scabbing will begin happening around day 3-4. Your lips will be very chapped. It is crucial you DO NOT pick and let it fall off naturally. Picking will result in early colour loss. Your lips will metabolize the colour which means the true colour may not appear for a few weeks. You will be given an aftercare package and instructions post treatment. You must avoid after: working out, sauna, tanning beds, facial treatments, filler, kissing, excessive sweating.

DO I NEED A TOUCH UP?TOUCH UP IS THE FINAL STEP OF THE THE LIP BLUSH PROCEDURE WHICH IS DONE 6 WEEKS POST YOUR INITIAL APPOINTMENT TO ALLOW FOR FULLY HEALED LIPS.

AFTER THE HEALING PROCESS, YOUR LIPS WILL LIGHTEN UP TO 50% THAN THEY APPEAR INITIALLY. HEALING RESULTS CAN VARY PERSON TO PERSON. TOUCH UPS ARE DONE TO GO OVER ANY PIGMENT LOSS DURING THE HEALING PROCESS THAT THE LIPS DID NOT RETAIN DURING THE INITIAL PROCEDURE.

HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?COLOUR RETENTION DEPENDS ON SKIN TYPE, AGE, AFTERCARE, SUN EXPOSURE, USE OF CERTAIN PRODUCTS, PIGMENTS USED, THE IMMUNE SYSTEM, MEDICATIONS, AND OTHER FACTORS. HOWEVER, GENERALLY THE COLOUR LASTS ABOUT 2 YEARS. TOUCH UPS ARE RECOMMENDED ONCE EVERY 6 MONTHS TO 1 - 2 YEARS TO PREVENT NATURAL FADING. COLOUR CHOICE IS AS IMPORTANT, AND IF NOT MORE IMPORTANT FOR A LIP TATTOO THAN A BROW TATTOO. UNDERLYING BLUE, PURPLE, OR BROWN TONES MUST BE BALANCED, AND IN CERTAIN CASES CORRECTED, WITH THE USE OF COLOURS SUCH AS ORANGE MODIFYING PIGMENTS. THE NATURAL LIP TONE AND SKIN TONE MUST ALWAYS BE CONSIDERED TO ACHIEVE A COLOUR APPROPRIATE FOR EACH CLIENT.
