Updating an old school brow tattoo. I am loving her new shape!

Updating old tattoos always take a minimum of 2 sessions. They will lighten up considerably the first time, but always look bomb after your second session!

Healed Brows + Smokey Eyeliner is such a 🧨 combo!

Even with Smokey eyeliner, there are so many variations that are customized for you. This one is more dense and velvety, whereas another might prefer a more airy shadow effect.

We discuss this and more during the Designing part of your appointment.

A COVID-19 screening and waiver form will be sent to you 3 days prior to your appointment. It is mandatory that you fill this out and send it back to me to keep your appointment.

If you have ANY symptoms of COVID 19, or have come in close contact with someone who does within 10 days of your appointments, please let me know and I will reschedule your appointment, even if it’s within my 48 hour no-reschedule window.

MASKS are mandatory. Please wear a clean mask to your appointment. If you do not have a mask, I will provide you with one.

Beverages will NOT be offered at this time. Please bring your own non-caffeinated beverage if you think you will be thirsty.

In case you didn't catch my story a couple of days ago, my studio is TEMPORARILY CLOSED until April 1 or possibly later, depending on our Covid-19 situation.

As a small business owner, it kills me to do this, especially when my clients have been waiting months for their appointment, but I believe it's necessary measure to collectively practice social distancing to stamp out this virus.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me (link in bio). Stay sane and healthy during these trying times ❤️

M A N B R O W S Why do I choose Ombre for men ins

M A N B R O W S
Why do I choose Ombre for men instead of Hairstrokes?

The reason is simple: with Male skin 25% thicker than female skin, with bigger pores and sebum production, the strokes will blur out quickly, making their brows look FAKE.
Ombre will give a soft background of colour, making brows look naturally denser and fuller bodied.

What else do I do differently with Man Brows?

DEPTH:
I find that implanting pigment a tiny bit deeper in male skin is necessary as their stratum corneum (top layer of skin) is thicker, in order to reach the dermis.

NEEDLE:
I often use 3rl or 5rl. My machine speed is the same or a notch higher, but depending on my client, my hand movement may be slower to get more pigment in.

PAIN:
My male clients barely feel anything, even without secondary numbing. This enables me to go over each section with more layers during my first pass.
After secondary numbing is applied, their skin will toughen up even more so hold off for as long as possible.
Sometimes secondary is needed, to blanche the skin a bit, but don't leave it on for very long.

PIGMENT:
UP the pigment warmth:
I add more warmth to the pigment bc male skin heals ashier (grey/blue tones). This is because their skin tends to be oilier and it's also thicker (pigment is implanted deeper)

SESSIONS:
Sometimes we need more than 2 sessions to achieve the density your male client desires, especially if they're skin is more oily, or if they don't want their procedure to be obvious. It's crucial to have this conversation before the tattooing starts.

H E A L E D
How natural do these MAN BROWS look after 4 months?? His brows look naturally denser and fuller bodied without looking fake.

There are a couple of factors I keep in mind when tattooing Man Brows as male skin is very different from female skin:
Male skin is approx 25% thicker and have bigger pores with more sebum production (more oily)

With this client, his darker skin is prone to hyperpigmentation when wounded so it's important to work slowly and gently

It is better to build up over more sessions than to plow the pigment in

I'll post what I do differently for male brows in my next post later on - stay tuned!

O M B R E
We often believe hairstrokes are needed to fill in sparseness in brows. Unfortunately, hairstrokes blur and become patchy over time, making it obvious you've had a tattoo.
I prefer the delicate pixels of a powder ombre brow, which are meant to blur and soften over time, magically giving your natural brow hairs more density and fluff.

And I really do mean MAGICALLY 🦄

I always tell my clients that we will be a little conservative the first appointment, to see how you heal.
When you come back for your complimentary session 4-8 weeks later, we will see how you have healed and adjust your shape and colour as necessary 😊

First session healed!
My client loves Orange/Coral lips and I am over the moon at her first healed results 🧡
The Orange also cancels out the darkness in her natural colour, so it's a WIN-WIN situation 🤩

During her second session, I went over everything to pump up the colour and concentrated more on the spots with less pigments and/or more darkness.
She has juicy lips for 1-3 years now!
