It is a process of depositing pigment into the second layer of skin, this is why it doesnt last as long as a regular tattoo, I create eyebrows, eyeliner and beauty spots.
What to expect when you go to your appointment.
My first step is to talk about what you want and what i can do, answer any questions you have about the process. I then draw on a shape using 2 measuring tools and we both agree on the shape and colour. I wont do anything I'm not happy with. Then we apply some numbing cream to make the process easier for you. You then fill in the appropriate forms, and we wait and chat until the brows have numbed. I start the tattooing process going back from one brow or eye to the other, until they are both even and done, please note i have to implant the ink so it lasts so i have to go over the area 4 or 5 times . We then go over aftercare and i penetrate ink into the brows while we are talking to make sure it sinks in there as much as possible.
It is different on everyone due to skincare, sunscreen used, and type of skin, but generally...
Brows last between 12 month to 18 months before they start looking faded.
Eyeliner lasts 1-2 years.
Do i really need to come for two appointments?
Yes i strongly recommend you come for your touch up, at the initial treatment, there is only so much colour we can implant before the trauma to the area becomes too much. Cosmetic tattooing is a work in progress, during the healing process some pigment may fall out with the flaking that happens, the touch up is a time to check and even anything out, go darker if you want it darker and thicker as many clients like it when its first done and its very dark. My method is to slowly apply pigment, let it heal then come back for more pigment to prolong the longevity in your brow tattoo.
I use 2 types of anaesthetic, one topical to put on the skin before the tattooing process starts, then a gel to use while I’m tattooing between colour applications. But it depends on the person, some people it doesn’t hurt at all, but some people it hurts abit, it depends on the individuals pain threshold . Brows have a scratchy feeling, and liner is done with the needle machine.
Brows are done with a feather stroke tool, this creates a natural hair stroke look. Immediately after the procedure, the brows will be very dark and bold, but this will only last for 7-10 days, until the brows are healed and they will fade up to 30%, then a touch up is required at $150. I recommend getting them refreshed once every 12 months at $230. If you leave it more than 2 years, the price goes back to the original price of $350.
Combination Brows
This is a mixture of microblading and shading, once 2 passes of microblading has been done and the shape has been created, i then shade them in with a digitial machine. This takes quite a bit longer and uses a lot more pigment hence the price difference. Combination brows are $400. These brows last longer than the microblading. A touch up is required after 4 weeks at $150.
Eyeliner is done with a tattoo machine and needle. It will be very bold for the first 2 weeks, then will fade up to 30% and become lighter and softer looking. Eyeliner is $350 for either upper OR lower, or $550 for both. It is a thin line along your lash line to enhance the lashes, great for blondes who have light lashes, or also people with glasses who have trouble seeing to apply makeup. Designer eyeliner, which is a thicker, winged look is $550. Touch ups once a year are $230.
Try not to put skin care products with active ingredients on the tattoos, especially retinol or alpha hydroxy acid. Use sunscreen to protect them and prevent fading. Be vigilant with your aftercare, i will explain the aftercare at the appointment and give you an aftercare sheet to refer to.
A mixture of microblading to give you natural look at the head of the brow, and shading to give a more defined tail. It lasts longer than the microblading technique, this is the preferred technique as it is best for most skin types.
$400 1st appointment, $150 touch up appointment 6 weeks later.
You will need to come back for a touch up appointment 4-6 weeks later to increase the longevity of the tattoo. Cosmetic tattoos are a work in progress and sometimes during the healing process pigment can fall out with the flaking, so the touch up is an important part of the process.
Featherstroke brows, this is a more natural look, not suitable for oily skin.
$350 for the 1st appointment, $150 for the touch up 6 weeks later.
This is required to increase the longevity of the colour in your brows.
A defined brow look done with only the needle machine.
This appointment is required to make any changes you want after the first treatment and to increase the longevity of the cosmetic tattoo
This is the price if you came to me originally. If it has been 2 years since the first appointment, it goes back to the full price.

Read MoreI went to Tanya Beauty Care in Sydney and did an intensive training day with the amazing Tanya, learning all about combination technique, which is a mixture of microblading and shading, it lasts longer and its a more defined look, great for the tails of the brow and its a better option for people with oily skin , as oily skin makes the tattoo fade quicker than normal skin clients. Also more mature skin needs the combination technique . It will still give you a natural look with the microblading at the head of the brow to give natural hair strokes.
