Powder Brows
WHAT ARE POWDER BROWS?
Powder brows is a semi permanent makeup technique designed to create eyebrows with a soft powder effect, very similar to makeup. Powder brows are done with a shading technique using a permanent makeup device, which is similar to a tattoo gun.
HOW ARE POWDER BROWS DONE?
Our trained artists will use a single needle to implant pigment into the skin with a quick hand motion, resulting in a pixelated effect of powder makeup. In order to add density, our artists can layer the pixels repetitively, which will appear as though the brow was filled in with a pencil or brow pomade. The art in shading is to layer the pixels perfectly without appearing denser and darker then your natural eyebrow hair.

WHO IS IT FOR?
For clients who draw on their eyebrows everyday, this can be an amazing solution. It is also a great alternative for clients that are not good candidates for Microblading because their skin is too oily as shading is suitable for any skin type!
HOW MANY SESSIONS DO I NEED FOR POWDER BROWS?
Our customers often have great healed results after one session with shading. We do offer a complementary touch up after 6-8 weeks to ensure your brows are perfect and the color is even throughout the whole eyebrow or if for any reason you want to add more density to them.
HOW DO I MAINTAIN MY NEW POWDER BROWS?
We recommend a touch up around 18-24 months to keep your color fresh. Natural fading occurs from external factors such as exposure to the sun as well as internal factors such as the gradual break down of pigments as your body metabolizes it out of your system. Everyone can experience the fading process differently and it really comes down to skin type and lifestyle.
