Accepted Answer

1-3 years depending on skin type, skincare, sun exposure, metabolism, lifestyle, etc.  
Annual touch ups will be needed to maintain the shape and color.

Question 5

How do you choose the shape for me?

Accepted Answer

Clients will be asked to send references photos of how they normally draw their brows and photos of brow shapes they like.
During the first half of the appointment, we will measure and shape your brows and make adjustments until you are happy to move forward with the shape.

Question 6

Does it hurt?

Accepted Answer

Topical numbing is used to reduce pain. It’s normal to be a little uncomfortable throughout the procedure. Most clients describe the pain like slow threading or a slow scratch.

Question 7

Is the touch up required after the first session?

Accepted Answer

Permanent makeup typically requires a minimum of 2 sessions to achieve the best outcome. A follow up appointment is recommended 6-12 weeks after the first session to assess how your brows or lips healed and make any necessary adjustments to the shape and/or color.

Question 8

How do I know when I need an annual touch up?

Accepted Answer

Clients will be asked to send the most recent photo of their brows to assess if it is time for a touch up. If they are still pretty dark and saturated, we will ask you to wait until they fade a little more before coming in. We want to maintain the integrity of your skin as much as possible, too many frequent touch ups will cause unnecessary scarring and trauma to your skin. It is normal for your brows to fade a little over a time, it’s ok to fill them in as needed.

Question 9

Coverups & Correction Work

Accepted Answer

If you’ve had your brows previously done by another artist, please send clear photos of your brows with no makeup for assessment before booking. The previous work must be faded by 50-75% in shape and/or color. In some cases depending on the pigment residue and number of previous sessions, it may require 2-3 sessions to cover up old work.
