WHAT ARE OMBRÉ BROWS?

​

​

The Ombré  “Powder Eyebrow” is a cosmetic tattoo shading technique that creates an ombré appearance beginning darker at the tails of the brows and moving lighter into the center of the brows. 

​

Unlike microblading, which uses a manual handheld tool to create individual hair strokes, the Ombré Brow method uses a digital handheld machine to produce micro pixilated dots throughout the brows for a subtle, powdered in, makeup finish.

​

Ombré Brows are ideal for anyone looking to achieve a fuller result than microbladed hair strokes and perfect for those who want a bolder look that can totally replace makeup. The results are waterproof, smudge-proof and natural-looking!   

TWO-APPOINTMENT PROCESS

​

​

Your Ombré Brow transformation is not completed until after the complimentary touch-up. Your touch-up will be scheduled the day of your initial appointment for approximately 8-12 weeks after your initial appointment. During your touch-up appointment we assess the shape, color retention, and any areas needing modification.

 

An annual color boost is recommended every 1-2 years to keep the pigment color looking fresh. Over time, the pigment will fade leaving the skin and your natural brows behind - lighter at the bulb (front) of the brow and going darker towards the tail.

 

Ombré Brow results will fade over time and can last approximately 1-5 years depending on the client. Every client retains pigment differently based on skin type, age, sun exposure, daily routine, etc.

​

ARE OMBRÉ BROWS FOR YOU?

​

​

We do not recommend Ombré Brows for the following:

​

THOSE PRONE TO KELOIDS OR POST-INFLAMMATORY HYPO-PIGMENTATION

​Unfortunately, since ombré brows involves opening the skin, it is our policy not to work with these conditions.

​

IF YOU HAVE A TRANSMITTABLE BLOOD DISEASE SUCH AS HIV OR HEPATITIS

Again, to prevent the transmission of blood-borne pathogens, we do not work with these conditions.  

​

IF YOU'VE HAD JUVEDERM, BOTOX, OR OTHER FILLERS IN THAT AREA

If you use any of the following, it should be performed 2 weeks prior to or 2 weeks after your ombré brow appointment.

​

PATIENTS UNDERGOING CHEMOTHERAPY

Although ombré shading is great for restoring the appearance of eyebrows, we recommend having your eyebrow treatment done prior to chemotherapy and require a doctor’s note for anyone undergoing chemotherapy.

​

IF YOU HAVE ANY KIND OF SKIN CONDITION ON OR NEAR YOUR EYEBROWS

Including eczema, shingles, rashes, etc.

​

IF YOU ARE PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING

We do not perform any eyebrow treatment during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. This is the policy for most permanent makeup artists.

​

IF YOU HAVE RECENTLY HAD COSMETIC/LASER TATTOO REMOVAL IN THE EYEBROW AREA

You must wait at least 8 weeks after removal to have permanent makeup done in the eyebrow area.

​

THOSE WITH DARK PRE-EXISITING EYEBROW TATTOOS

The tattoo/permanent makeup must be light enough for us to re-work. If you have a previous eyebrow tattoo, please send us an email to contact@campbellnicolemicroblading.com and include a picture of your eyebrows with no makeup, so we can evaluate.

​

​

THOSE WITH ALLERGIES TO ALCOHOL OR NUMBING AGENTS

If you think you might have an allergy to our pigment, anesthetic, or alcohol, then you may have a reaction to our work.
