At Madeline Kate Brow Boutique we offer various methods of brow tattooing to create your desired result. We have listed the different methods below, however the best method can be predicted on the day of your treatment during an in-depth consultation.

FEATHER-TOUCH BROW TATTOOING (MICROBLADING):

Feather-touch brow tattoo involves a metal hand-tool with a cluster of fine probes, which is used to implant semi-permanent pigment into the skin to create life-like hair strokes and natural-looking eyebrows.

COMBINATION BROW TATTOOING (MACHINE METHOD):

(also known as Shaded/Ombre’ Brows), involves a digital method tattoo machine and a hand tool method to implant pigment into the skin.

This technique utilises a hair stroke method in the centre of the eyebrows to create a “soft” centre and then utilises a machine method on the mid-brow and tails to create the appearance of a softly powdered brow.

Photos of each method can be viewed on our social media page @madelinekatebrows.

WHAT DOES THE CONSULTATION INVOLVE?

A 30 minute consultation takes place before treatment. This covers the treatment in depth, your desired/recommended eyebrow shape, and pigment colour and aftercare instructions.

HOW DOES YOUR TECHNICIAN SELECT THE BEST BROW SHAPE AND PIGMENT COLOUR FOR ME?

Prior to treatment we will outline, measure and pencil on a brow shape and choose the most suitable pigment colour. We will take into consideration the most appropriate shape and colour to suit your specific facial features, natural brow line, skin tone, hair colour and your desired brow shape and colour.

IS THE TREATMENT UNCOMFORTABLE?

Topical anesthetic is applied before and during cosmetic tattooing procedures, however small amounts of discomfort are expected.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT IMMEDIATELY AFTER TREATMENT?

  • Swelling and redness is minimal and usually subsides within 24 hours
  • Immediately after, the area will appear bolder in colour and sharply defined. This can take approx. 1-2 weeks for the colour to settle.
  • There may be visible peeling/flaking for approx. 1-2 weeks
  • The skin takes 4-8 weeks to heal at a cellular level and for
    the true pigment colour to settle
  • You may feel itching in the eyebrows. Do not scratch the
    area.
  • This will NOT prevent working or socializing.

WHAT AFTER-CARE IS REQUIRED AFTER MY TREATMENT?

  • You cannot submerge the area in pool/salt water for a minimum of 2 weeks, therefore it is NOT recommended to plan this treatment close to any holidays or swimming events.
  • Makeup can be worn around, but not over the area for a minimum of 2 weeks.
  • It is not recommended to use any tanning products near the area while it is healing
  • A special tattoo balm will be supplied to you on the day and applied to the area for 2 weeks. PLEASE NOTE: Bepanthen is NOT recommended!
  • Further aftercare instructions will be given to you at your appointment 

WHAT DOES THE TOUCH-UP TREATMENT INVOLVE?

Feather-Touch Brow Tattooing is a multi-step process. A touch-up appointment is scheduled 4-8 weeks after your initial appointment. Colour retention varies depending on the individual, skin type and client compliance of home care instructions.

HOW OFTEN WILL I NEED MY COSMETIC TATTOOING REDONE?

Feather-Touch Brow Tattooing results in a softer finish but requires slightly more re-touching than other cosmetic tattooing procedures. You may require a re-touch maintenance treatment approximately every 1-4 years to keep the pigment looking its best.

The longevity of colour in the skin cannot always be predicted. Some skins hold colour longer and stronger than others, while others fade leaving a light residue in the skin. Pigment may fade or change according to metabolism, lifestyle, skin type, medications, age, smoking, alcohol, sun exposure, and use of active skincare products such as Retin-A and Alpha-Hydroxy Acids (AHA’s).

WILL I STILL NEED TO WAX AND TINT MY EYEBROWS?

Depending on your natural brow growth you may or may not need to continue getting your eyebrows waxed, however Feather-Touch Brow Tattooing does not affect the natural brow growth, the pigment is implanted into the skin. If your brow growth is naturally outside the shape that is created, brow waxing may still be necessary. In some cases, Feather-Touch Brow tattooing prevents the need for eyebrow tinting treatments, however in the case of a blonde or grey brow hair regular brow tinting may be desired.
