Combo brows are a combination of ombre in the tail of the brows, and realistic hair-strokes in the front of the brows. This technique offers best results for normal, to semi-oily skin. Touch ups may still be required.
What are Nano Brows?
A style giving volume and definition by adding powdery hair strokes to the enhance the natural brow. This technique is performed with a tattoo machine and is compatible with normal, combo or mature skin types.
What are Ombre Brows?
Ombre brows are gradient shading from tail to front, and bottom to top of the brows to create a powdered make up look with no hair strokes. This technique will heal similar to natural brow tint, and offers the best pigment retention for oily skin, although it can be used for any skin type and cover-ups. Please remember that ombre brows are meant as a semi-permanent service. Touch ups may be required. But too many touch-ups or over saturation, may cause color change over time
What is the difference between Microblading and Nano brows Technique?
Microblading uses a manual blade to cut the skin and insert the pigment into those tiny slits of the skin. The Nano technique uses a delicate and precise tattoo machine to dot thousands of times per minute creating lines that mimic natural looking hair-strokes. Pigment retention is better with Nano machine brows vs the micro-blade manual technique because there is less trauma to the skin, less scaring and color migration. This technique offers best results for normal, dry, non-oily skin. Touch ups still may be required.
How long does the Semi Permanent make up service last?
This varies per individual depending on one’s skin type, body chemistry, lifestyle, diet, etc. With that said, on average brows will last 1-3 years but brows will fade over time. Please remember this is designed to be semi-permanent service.
Are these procedures painful?
Generally, no. Each person has a pain threshold, but consistent application of anesthetic typically keeps clients very comfortable. If you do not respond to numbing agents, there can be some discomfort.

How long does the procedure take and what to expect?
Each initial procedure takes anywhere from 2-3 hours. During that time, a through consultation is given to better understand client’s desire and what they hope to achieve during their treatment as they fill out all required paper work. Once we have the final approval from the client then we will start the actual procedure. Numbing anesthetics are used with all eyebrow treatments to ensure comfort. There will be pictures taken of the brows before and after as well and you will be given a mini aftercare kit.
