The seven step eyebrow shaping treatment that yields amazing results.

Brow lamination works in a similar way to a lash lift, and is designed to open up your eyes.The process essentially involves straightening eyebrow hairs using a solution, so that they all stand in the desired direction for a full and fluffy look includes wax and tint

Innovative treatment that is a gel consistency tint which is ideal for someone who likes a strong structured brow with crisp clean sharp lines.

Yes patch test in necessary on all brow services 48 hours prior to treatment. NO PATCH TEST = NO TREATMENT

Generally, a tint should last 2-3 weeks. Avoid scrubbing the brow area to allow the tint to last that little bit longer and avoid getting wet 24 hours after for best results.

We recommend that you get your brow wax at least 48 hours prior to tan application. After waxing, the pores are open and you may be susceptible to a break out if you apply tan shortly after. The skin would also be quite fresh and may not allow the tan to stick to the waxed area.

No! We recommend that you leave at least 48 hours between getting your brows waxed and doing a sun bed or visa versa.

We recommend using our Hive Brow Soap to help keep the hairs in place, and to help keep the shape in your brows. Brushing the brows into place regularly can also help to train the brows to sit in a desired way.

Yes, certain creams can affect your waxing treatment. You need to take particular note if you are using/taking Retin, Retinal (Vit A), Accutane, antibiotics, Benzoil Peroxide, prescribed and non-prescribed medications. We would advise taking extra care when cleansing your face after a brow wax. For example, avoid exfoliating the waxed area.

We recommend leaving a 4 week gap in between a brow wax and any of the treatments listed above. (these treatments are only a concern when carried out on or around the brow area).

Generally, the skin is more sensitive when using/taking any of the above. Thus, we would NOT recommend waxing as it can cause severe damage to the skin.

It is important to be aware that when tinting your eyebrows, while you have tan on your face, there is a strong possibility that the tint will react with the tan and possibly stain a green or orange colour.

It is very common that I meet women with over tweezed brows. Whether they over tweezed their eyebrows themselves to achieve a look from a trend years ago or if they just had a bad experience at a nail salon or spa. No matter what the cause of over wax/tweezed eyebrows, the best thing to do is to allow your brows to rest and GROW! You cannot achieve proper brow growth if: 1: You are constantly "cleaning up your brows" yourself. 2: You are continuously getting your eyebrows shaped incorrectly.Most women actually do have healthy follicles, but fail to see growth because the hairs that actually promote a fuller brow are mistaken for “strays” and are being removed. When it comes to brow growth, EVERY HAIR COUNTS! There are also home remedies that can aid in brow growth. One of the best home remedies is to use castor oil. Simply apply a dime size to clean brows every morning and night. As your brows are growing, make sure you invest in the proper brow products/makeup to fill in your eyebrows properly and naturally. If you’re not sure how to achieve a natural eyebrow fill in, book an appointment and we will show you how!

Unfortunately, yes. As we age, our hair follicles can become less active and even dormant. This can cause the brow hairs to grow in thinner, slower or not at all. Health conditions, such as hypothyroidism or even hyperthyroidism can cause the tails (or end) of your eyebrows to diminish. When hormones and particular health conditions affect our eyebrows, there honestly isn’t too much we can do. But it is extremely important that your brows are being shaped properly from this point on to prevent any over waxing/tweezing. Learning how to fill in your brows properly and maintaining a healthy diet will surely help as well.

Healthy eyebrows grow in a cycle that takes about 21-30 days to complete. At the end of this cycle, any hairs that have been removed from the hair follicle should begin to appear on the surface of the skin. Therefore, most women should get their brows done every 3-6 weeks.
