Powder Brows is a semi-permanent technique that uses a tattoo machine to implant thousands of tiny dots to create a soft filled-in makeup look. The result can range from very natural to more defined, depending on your preference.
During the appointment we will draw a detailed mapping and design of your brows. Then, a custom pigment will be blended to best match your skin tone and hair color.
Powder Brows differ from Microblading in that it creates a softly shaded brow versus hair-like strokes.
How long do Powder Brows last?
Powder Brows typically last 1-3 years, depending on skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Annual touch-ups are recommended to help keep the brows looking fresh.
Is the procedure painful?
Most clients describe the sensation as mild discomfort rather than pain. A topical numbing cream is applied before (if needed) and during the service to keep you comfortable.
What is the healing process like?
Initial healing takes about 7-10 days. Brows will appear darker at first, then soften as they heal. Full healing and color stabilization occur around 4-6 weeks.
Will my brows look too dark or unnatural?
Immediately after the procedure, brows will appear darker and more intense. As the skin heals, the color will fade and soften by 30-40%, resulting in a natural, powdery finish.
Is a touch-up appointment required?
Yes. A touch-up is typically recommended 6-8 weeks after your initial appointment to perfect the shape, color, and density.
Who is a good candidate for Powder Brows?
Powder Brows are suitable for most skin types, including oily and mature skin. A consultation is required to ensure you're a good candidate.
How do I prepare for my appointment?
Avoid alcohol, caffeine, blood thinners, and retinol for at least 24-48 hours before your appointment. Full pre-care instructions will be emailed upon booking.
What does Powder Brows aftercare involve?
Proper aftercare is essential for the best results. You'll need to keep the area clean and dry, apply the recommended aftercare product, and avoid touching or picking at the brows while they heal.
What should I avoid after my Powder Brows appointment?
For 7-10 days, avoid sweating, saunas, steam, swimming, makeup on the brows, and excessive sun exposure. Picking or scratching the brows can cause patchy healing and pigment loss.
Can I wash my face after the procedure?
Yes, but gently. Avoid getting the brows wet for the first 24 hours. After that, cleanse around the area carefully without rubbing the brows directly.
Is flaking or scabbing normal?
Yes. Light flaking or scabbing is part of the normal healing process. Do not pick at the skin, as this can remove pigment and affect the final result.
When can I return to my normal skincare routine?
You may resume most skincare after 10-14 days, but avoid exfoliants, retinol, acids, and facial treatments on the brow area until fully healed (about 4-6 weeks).
