WHAT ARE OMBRÉ POWDER BROWS?
Ombré Powder is a permanent makeup procedure that produces the look of shaded brows that is darker at the tails and lighter in the front. This service produces a soft powder filler brow look and can be customized to be natural or as bold as makeup. The finished result leaves eyebrows with a nice faded front giving you a more subtle look compared to traditional tattooed eyebrows. They are waterproof, smudge-proof and sweat-proof.
MICROBLADING VS. OMBRÉ POWDER
Ombré Powder Brows is a technique where we use a single needle to deposit pixels into the skins to create a soft powdery effect. Ombré Powder gradually fades down the line.
Microblading is where artists use a micro/small blade to create cuts in the skin to give the appearance of hair strokes. Microblading strokes bleed overtime and end up becoming thicker and in result turn into a blur.

HOW DO YOU DETERMINE THE CORRECT SHAPE FOR ME?
We use a combination of several different brow mapping methods to ensure that we give you the most symmetrical brows as possible.
We shape you based on your natural brow shape, your muscle and bone structure and your facial features.
We take a lot of measurements using a sticker ruler and caliper as well as other tools.
We don’t start the procedure until you absolutely love and approve the shape!
WHY SHOULD YOU GET PMU?
Permanent makeup is great for several reasons:
Getting ready takes less time
Great if you have a busy schedule
A great solution for those who have unsteady hands or bad vision and are unable to apply makeup the way they want
PMU doesn't smear when in water activities or when sweating
It's good for people with traditional allergies to makeup
It's great for those suffering from eyebrow hair loss or fixing previous work
