What if I have previously microblading/eyebrow tattoo before?

If you’ve had any previous work done to your brows, please make sure you attach clear close up photos and date of last session to get approved for new work. Please remember that your brows are my advertisement, if I cannot make your brows to our liking, we will not preform the procedure and I will advise to get removal before considering getting new work done. Tattoo cover ups add an additional $100 if it requires color correction. 

 

Where are you located?

I am off Route 46 West bordering Clifton, Little Falls and Woodland Park

What is Nano Brows?

Nano brows are the most advanced permanent makeup technique for creating absolutely natural-looking eyebrows. Using a precise digital machine with an ultra-fine needle, I create delicate, hair-like strokes that are virtually indistinguishable from your real brow hairs. Think of it as the sophisticated evolution of microblading - it’s gentler on your skin, more precise, and lasts longer because the pigment is implanted at the perfect depth. The result? Gorgeously full, perfectly shaped brows that look like you were born with them, but better. You’ll wake up every morning with flawless brows that frame your face beautifully and make you feel effortlessly put-together.

 

What are Combo Brows?

Combro brows are created by mixing hairstrokes with shading. This technique is perfect for those looking to maintain a natural look and reducing the need for makeup. Depending on your skin type, combo brows are ideal for anyone with minimal brow hair. It gives the appearance of hairstrokes while adding density to the brow with shading to give realistic results. Along with microblading, this style is not suitable for all skin types. A touch up is recommended every 24-36 months.

 

What are Ombré/Powder brows?

This is a fully shaded technique with the use of a tattoo machine that will mimic a makeup look. Ombré/Powder brows are a customizable look based on the clients personal preference. It ranges from soft and subtle to bold and dense. This is suitable for all skin types especially those with oily skin and/or large pores. A touch up is recommended every 24 months.

 

Do you shave off the entire brow?

No, we work with the natural hair. It is preferred to let them grow out about 3-4 weeks prior to the appointment. The more hair the better

 

What is Lip Blushing?

Lip blushing is a cosmetic tattoo that will enhance the natural lip color, improving shape, symmetry, definition, and give the illusion of fuller lips. This procedure is customizable ranging from a soft tint or bold mimicking lipstick. A touch up is recommended every 2-3 years.

 

Does permanent cosmetics hurt?

Different numbing creams are used to ensure you are comfortable throughout the entire procedure. Most clients compare it to threading or even fall asleep! Getting the procedure done during your menstrual cycle may increase discomfort during the procedure. After the procedure, you may feel slight tenderness for the first few hours and into the next day.

 

How long does it take for permanent cosmetics to heal?

Please allow 10-14 days to heal. During the healing process, the permanent cosmetics tend to go through different phases (darkening, scabbing, slight patchiness) As long as you follow aftercare instructions, there shouldn’t be a problem going to work or out in public.

 

How long is the appointment?

The session can range from 2-3 hours depending on current status of your brows or which service is chosen.  Most of the time is spent shaping and mapping out the perfect shape. 

 

Is it actually permanent?

Because pigments are placed on the upper layer of the skin and cannot be washed off. It is considered permanent, but unlike a traditional tattoo, pigments are implanted superficially, making it fade over time and requiring a touch up.

 

Is the second appointment necessary?

Touch ups are done no earlier than 8 weeks and no later than 12 weeks. An additional fee will be applied if touch up is not scheduled within 12 weeks from initial session. At the touch up session, we correct anything that has lightened up during the healing process. Correcting the shape, color and adding density if needed. 

 

Do I need to take off of work for a couple days?

You will look amazing right after the procedure. There is no bruising and maybe just slight swelling that will subside within a few hours of the procedure. They will darken for a few days but not scary enough that you will want to hide.

 

Can you tattoo over an existing tattoo?

If the existing tattoo is faded about 80-90% it is possible, but unfortunately, tattooing over pigment saturated brows will result in blurring of the strokes. 

 

Do you offer touch ups if I got them done by a different artist?

I do not offer touch ups over a different artists work. It becomes difficult following a brow pattern done by a different artist. Strokes will contradict with each other causing blurring.
