FAQ'S

1. What is Ombre Brow Tattooing?
Ombre brow tattooing is a semi-permanent makeup technique that uses a machine to create a soft, powdered gradient look, starting lighter at the front and gradually darkening toward the tail of the brows. This mimics the appearance of naturally full, filled-in brows.

2. How long does Ombre Brow Tattooing last?
Ombre brows typically last 1 to 3 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Annual touch-ups can help maintain their shape and color for a longer time.

3. Is Ombre Brow Tattooing painful?
The procedure is generally well-tolerated, but some discomfort may be felt. Numbing creams are applied to minimize any pain or irritation during the session.

4. How long does the procedure take?
The entire ombre brow process usually takes 2 to 3 hours, which includes a consultation, numbing, shaping, and the actual tattooing.

5. What is the healing process like?
After the procedure, your brows will appear darker for the first few days, but as they heal, the color softens and lightens. Full healing typically takes about 2 to 4 weeks, flaking being a normal part of the process.

6. How do I care for my brows after the procedure?
You’ll need to avoid sweating, swimming, and direct sun exposure for at least 10 days post-procedure. Keeping the brows clean and moisturized is crucial for proper healing.

7. Who is a good candidate for Ombre Brow Tattooing?
Ombre brows are suitable for all skin types, including oily or combination skin, as the powdered effect adheres well and lasts longer without excessive fading or blurring.

8. Why do some clients need a third touch-up?
About 15% of clients may require a third touch-up session to achieve their desired results. This can happen due to skin type, healing process, or lifestyle factors. Oily skin or faster skin cell turnover may result in quicker fading, making an additional session necessary to ensure even color and shape retention.

9. What pigments do you use, and why are they safer?
I use high-quality, European-grade pigments, which are known for their safety and longevity. These pigments are designed to fade true to color and meet strict European Union safety standards, ensuring they are free from harmful substances like heavy metals. This ensures that your brows will age beautifully and naturally over time.

10. Will my brows fade to unnatural colors like grey, black, or pink?
No, with the European-grade pigments I use, your brows will not fade to unnatural shades like grey, blocky black, or pink. The high-quality pigments are designed to fade in a natural, soft manner over time, ensuring your brows maintain a natural appearance without shifting to undesirable hues.
