Reviews from clients
Thank you! Everything healed well. The tone is good and I like that the outer line is a little darker. I am glad that with your help I have finally done what I wanted and got permanent brows.
Hello, Linda! I am happy with everything and it healed very easily. I got a lot of compliments 😊 Thank you! I will think about my lips too 💋
Hiya! It healed very well, and whenever I tell someone the brows are permanent, everyone says the same thing - but they look so natural 😊😄 I really like them, perhaps they would want to be a little darker with my new hair colour, but otherwise thank you very much again ❤️
Hi, Linda! Thank you 😊 Everything healed very well and looks very natural 👍 Only when I do darker eye makeup, the brows want to be a bit darker too. Maybe I should tint the brow hairs? They have faded over the summer 😄
Hi, sorry, I missed your first message 🙏 yes, everything healed very nicely 👌 I just tint the hairs themselves now and then with brow colour (because they are light in places on their own) and it is perfect!
Hi!! ❤️ The brows are really wonderful. 😍 When is a refresh recommended? After a year? I am thinking hard about my lips too 😉
Hi! I keep forgetting to send you a photo. Everything healed well, just as quickly as before. This time it even seemed there were almost no scabs. I will try to remember to take a close-up and send it to you 🙈
Hi, sorry for the late reply, the little one takes up all my time. 🥹😅 But everything healed very beautifully, thank you so much. If I manage it, I will take a photo and send it to you. ❤️😊
Thank you so much once again for this result! 🥰 I could not even imagine it would be Wow!! I knew it would be pretty, but it turned out truly Wow!! 🤩 I used to spend so much time every morning getting the shape right, and every morning it was not perfect!! 😫 Now I look at myself in the mirror every morning with joy and I am so glad I trusted you!! 😇🤗 You are simply magical!! Thank you so much for this beauty you have given me!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Greetings! I want to say a big thank you, the brows healed perfectly and look excellent!! In my view an outstanding result, I am very happy!! 🥰😊🥰 Thank you so much!!
Hi! Time flew by, I forgot to report back in time 🙈 The brows healed without any trouble and I am very happy with the result too 🥰 every morning I wake up and I am glad the brows are already done and there is nothing to draw or colour in. These photos may not be the best, because I took them quickly without brushing, but when you brush them nicely and set them with brow gel - it is a bomb! 😄 Thank you so much for the fantastic work! 🤩
Hi. Thank you for my brows, I am very happy. Have a nice day! Ksenija
What permanent eyebrow makeup is
Permanent eyebrow makeup, also known as micropigmentation, is a modern and very popular cosmetic procedure. It improves the shape and density of the brows and gives the face a harmonious, balanced look, making the brows appear fuller and naturally expressive. The pigment is chosen carefully to match your own hair colour, which gives a long-lasting result. The effect can hold for up to 1.5 years. It is a great option for anyone who wants better brows without spending time on makeup every day.
Permanent eyebrow makeup techniques
Permanent eyebrow makeup, like lip micropigmentation, can be done with several techniques. Today it is possible to reach very good, natural results. Some of the most popular techniques are described below:
-
Powder technique
Light and airy, it creates an ombre effect: the head of the brow is lighter and the colour deepens towards the tail. The overall look is very natural - from the outside it looks as if the brows were filled in with a pencil. -
Hair stroke technique
This technique draws a pattern of individual hairs that follows their natural shape and length. It adds density and lets parts of the skin be pigmented selectively, which helps when scars in the brow area need to be covered. -
Full fill
The brow is one shade from head to tail, with an intense fill
The powder technique - my choice for the brow procedure
I work with the powder technique because I find it gives the most natural result. I am for a beautiful, natural effect that complements you and does not weigh your look down.
Remember that brows with permanent makeup should look their best when you are wearing no makeup at all. First thing in the morning, your brows should certainly not be the first thing people notice about you.
On the days you go for a bolder makeup look, you can of course darken the brows with cosmetics if you want to. What counts as the right result is purely a matter of taste, which is why it matters so much to choose a specialist whose work you genuinely like - then you can trust them completely.
How long the procedure takes
The time can vary, but count on about 2.5 hours, which covers talking through what you want, drawing the sketch and the procedure itself.
How the procedure goes
- The client arrives for the procedure. We talk through how it will go, then fill in and sign the client form.
- So the client can see the plan and the artist has guidelines for the working area, a sketch of the permanent makeup is drawn on the brows with special pencils. Both the client and the artist have to approve it. The artist judges as a professional how well the shape and colour suit this particular person, while the client has to feel completely comfortable with the chosen shape on their own face.
- The artist starts the procedure.
- The artist gives you the aftercare instructions.
- After 4-8 weeks the procedure is repeated. The artist corrects the permanent makeup (the tone and any gaps as well, if needed) to reach a flawless result.
Contraindications
In some cases the permanent makeup procedure should not be done at all. Any of the conditions listed below means the procedure cannot be carried out. In individual cases, after consulting the artist and obtaining written permission from a doctor, it may still be possible.
- Hepatitis
- Diabetes
- A tendency to form keloid scars
- Skin conditions – dermatitis, psoriasis, herpes, eczema, rosacea, folliculitis, furunculosis, angioedema and others
- HIV and AIDS
- Epilepsy
- Heart conditions
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Autoimmune diseases
- Haemophilia (a blood clotting disorder)
- Serious internal organ diseases
- Being under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Alcohol and blood-thinning medication – the area weeps more, which strongly affects the result
- Severe mental disorders
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding – the outcome cannot be predicted. After the first trimester the risk drops. Every mother has to weigh up for herself whether she needs the procedure
- Peels, dermabrasion and other traumatic cosmetic treatments. Once 40 to 60 days have passed, permanent makeup may be done with a doctor’s permission
- Botox and similar (depending on the area) - permanent makeup must not be done before or after botulinum injections (at least 4 weeks have to pass)
- A high temperature - the procedure has to be moved until you have fully recovered. After a course of antibiotics, wait at least 2 weeks
- The menstrual cycle - pain is felt more keenly just before and during your period. The middle of the cycle is the best time
- A facelift – only in agreement with your doctor, once the tissue has fully recovered
- Sunburned or frostbitten skin
- A flare-up of allergies
- Chemotherapy and radiotherapy - the procedure is only possible during remission
- Conjunctivitis and other eye conditions
- Inflammation on the skin
- Menopause
- Eye surgery - at least one year must have passed
- Blepharoplasty - at least 6 months must have passed
How to prepare for the procedure to get the best result
It is very important to follow every recommendation before and after the procedure. It directly affects how the session goes and how the skin heals. For example, if you have had a peel or waxing in the treated area, the procedure itself will be painful and traumatic. And if you sunbathe afterwards or pick the crust off, it will affect how much pigment stays and the procedure may have been for nothing.
What you must do before the procedure
- In the week before the procedure, do not experiment with new face masks, creams or other products that could cause an unexpected skin reaction.
- Have facial waxing in the brow area no later than 3 days before the procedure, as it injures and irritates the top layer of skin.
- If a rash appears in the treated area, tell the artist. If it cannot be worked around, it is better to move the appointment.
- Do not drink coffee or smoke before the procedure.
What not to do after the brow PMU procedure
- Do not get the pigmented area wet for the first 2 days.
- Do not scratch or rub the treated area, or catch it with a towel when drying your face.
- For the first 10 - 14 days avoid saunas, pools, long baths, swimming and anything that makes you sweat heavily.
- For the first 10 days (or longer, if the crust has not come off yet) do not use makeup or skincare on the treated area or within 1 cm of it.
- Until it has healed completely, avoid brow tinting, henna, makeup and any other work on the brow area.
- Scrubs, peels, masks and other harsh products are not advisable on the brow area.
- Do not pick the crust off - let the skin heal and recover on its own.
Aftercare instructions
- Stay out of direct sunlight and away from sunbeds for at least 1 month after the procedure.
- You can lightly moisturise the brows with the product the artist recommends.
- Once it has healed, use an SPF 50 (as a minimum) sunscreen every day so the pigment does not fade.
How the brows heal after the procedure
Let us go through the recovery day by day, so you know what to expect and are ready for it. The skin can be considered restored 28 days after a permanent makeup procedure. The dermis heals over the first 7-10 days; the rest of the time is needed for the pigment to settle and stabilise.
Day one
Right after the procedure the shape and outline look very sharp and bright. Because the dermis has been injured and the immune system responds, lymph fluid often seeps from the open wounds. Blot it gently with a cotton pad each time.
Day two
The next day the pigment looks even brighter, and that is normal. Lymph fluid may still seep out - blot it the same way as on day one. Remember that greasy ointments and creams block the skin and stop it breathing, so put nothing on the brow area.
Days 3-7
The skin heals gradually and crusts form. The treated area may start to itch. Be patient and do not scratch, so you do not injure the still thin, unprotected skin.
Days 10-14
The skin has healed but is still thin and easily injured. The flaking gradually stops. The itching has eased and the colour has become lighter. Cosmetic treatments, the sauna and the pool are still not advisable.
After 2 weeks
The dermis has recovered and you can use makeup again if you want to. The pigment is still settling at this stage, so the colour may change - it can turn richer or fade almost completely. That depends on your body; it is individual. Small flaws may appear, such as gaps, or the outline may look slightly blurred. All of them are corrected at the touch-up.
