Powder/Ombre' Brows
Powder/Ombre’ Brows is a service provided to clients as a method of enhancing their natural brows by applying semi-permanent color in order to achieve a more bold appearance and a gorgeous pop of color.
This service is perfect for clients who are frequent makeup wearers, and those who like a defined brow. This can benefit clients who have full natural brows or even sparse eyebrows.
Powder/Ombre’ Brows are recommended for clients that have more oily/textured skin.
This service cost includes the initial service. Powder/Ombre’ Brow is a 2-3 step process and it is important to understand that full results, in most cases are not achievable after just one appointment.
Additional touch ups are highly recommended, at an extra cost.

Healing
The healing process may look a little different for each client.
Day of Service
Brows will appear swollen and very bright in color immediately following service. If any “oozing” (lymph fluid) is present on the brows, gently dab the area with a clean cotton round. Avoid wiping or scrubbing the area.
Do not apply aftercare ointment or submerge your face in water the day of service.
Day 1-2
Your brows will begin to darken in color and swelling with subside. Begin applying your aftercare ointment in a THIN layer, 1-3 times daily as your brows feel stiff or dry, otherwise as directed by your technician.
Day 3-5
Brows will appear very dry and will begin flaking off. Do not pick and pull at the flaking on as this can cause the brows to prematurely fade. Keep your area moisturized with the aftercare provided 1-3 times daily as your brows feel stiff or dry, otherwise as directed by your technician.
Day 5-10+
Brows should be completely peeled, resulting in a potentially lighter than desired look. As he skin continues to heal, the brow color will begin to resurface. Continue to keep the area moisturized as needed.
Week 4
The brows have become more bold in color and the skin is no longer dry and flakey! This is when a touch-up (if desired) is made in order to touch up and areas of lightness or make any small corrections to the brows.
