Before you imagine getting powder brows or permanent makeup done by one of our specialists, read how it works and its advantages.
Powder Brows is a permanent makeup, but it’s a totally different technique from Microblading. The Powder Brow technique punctures the skin with a needle to deposit the color. And the finished look is a ‘powdered brow,’ like you have used a pencil to fill it in, rather than individual hair strokes.
Eyebrows look soft and natural, contrary to a “magic marker” brow look. Perfect when client has sparse brow hair.
Results do vary based on lifestyle, skin type, health, preferences, etc., but a single powder brows session, using high-quality pigments, can last on average 2-2.5 years

Powder brows is an eyebrow tattoo with a soft, powder finish.
The pain is minimal and very tolerable. We also use topical anesthetics for our clients to have a comfortable experience.
Yes it is very safe. We use pre-sterilized and disposable needles and equipment for every customer to ensure that there is no cross-contamination.
The finish of powder brows is soft, making it look more natural and subtle than the old style of eyebrow tattooing which looks very harsh and strong.
Best to set aside at least 2 hours to include anesthesia setting, eyebrow shaping and the procedure itself.
There might be some slight swelling and reddening of the skin but this is not very noticeable and will go away quickly after the procedure.
Superficial healing should take more or less 7-10 days. However, this could differ from person to person. There might be some scabbing within this period. Make sure not pick or remove any of this. You will expect to see the full results after a month.
We would prefer if you don’t thread, shave or pluck your eyebrows beforehand so we can see it’s natural shape. Make sure to also not come in with sunburned and/or peeling skin as this would be very difficult to tattoo on.
Yes of course. Tattooing does not affect hair growth in any way.
Color retention varies per person. It depends on several factors such as sun exposure and the usage of certain skin care products etc. But if you want to keep the color always looking fresh, a retouch every 2 years would be advisable.
Color options will be discussed during consultation prior to the procedure itself. We have a wide range of brown colors to choose from.
The intensity of the pigment will fade over time but proper color mixing by the artist should prevent the pigment from discoloring.
We recommend a minimum of 4weeks after the first session to allow the skin to heal completely before another session. Forcing another session before the said period will cause a high risk for scarring.
Ideally, most people will really benefit from the touch-up session. But for some who are unable to do so because of geographical limitations, we highly recommend the powder brow procedure because it heals more consistently and less patchy than microblading therefore an urgent need for a retouch is not as necessary in most cases. Powder brow covers a bigger surface area because of the full shading and the higher amount of ink that is implanted into the skin.
To maintain the best color of the tattoo, a retouch every 2 years is recommended for powder brows.
This depends on how saturated the old eyebrow tattoo is. If it is light enough, we can work over the old tattoo to correct the shape and color. However, you have to keep in mind that there might be some limitations with the results since the artist has to take into consideration the shape and/or color of the previous eyebrow tattoo.
This depends on the severity of your condition and your ability to heal but we highly discourage tattoos on pregnant and lactating women. It will be best to consult with your physician before undergoing the procedure.
We recommend not to let your eyebrows get in contact with water within the first 3 hours after the procedure. It would also be best to restrict sun exposure, swimming and excessive sweating while your eyebrows are still healing since these could dramatically affect the retention of the pigment in the skin.
