  • The Ombre Powder Brows are a semi-permanent tattoo technique that creates a soft, gradient effect with a natural-looking, defined shape. The color transitions from light at the start to dark at the tail, mimicking the look of perfectly filled-in brows. This method offers a natural, long-lasting, polished appearance, reducing the need for daily makeup and enhancing your natural brow shape.

  • The Ombre Powder Brow typically lasts 1-3 years, depending on skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare.

  • Our Lip Blushing service offers a subtle, semi-permanent enhancement to the color and shape of your lips. This technique gently adds a natural-looking tint, defining your lip line and providing a fuller, more vibrant appearance. Ideal for those seeking a low-maintenance boost to their lip color, Lip Blushing creates a beautifully enhanced smile without the need for daily lipstick.

  • Lip Blushing typically lasts 2-5 years, depending how natural you want them, lifestyle, and aftercare.

  • While each individual will have a different experience when it comes to pain during the procedure, most clients experience minimal discomfort during the Brow and Lip procedure, with many even falling asleep.

    After the first pass during the Ombre Powder Brow technique, Lidocaine is applied to keep you comfortable throughout the process.

    For Lip Blushing, we use Lidocaine to numb the lips during the outline, but prefer not to reapply it for optimal results. However, if additional numbing is needed, we can apply it during the procedure to maintain your comfort.

  • It’s crucial to schedule your touch-up within the 5-10 week timeframe. Skin cell renewal is typically28-45 days, depending on your age, so a touch-up can be performed once this regeneration phase is complete. In contrast, lip tissue renewal takes longer, so touch-ups are recommended at the 8-12 week mark.

  • If you’ve previously had Microblading or Ombre Powder Brows done at another business, we kindly ask that you come in for a consultation. This will help us assess your brows and determine if correction work can be performed effectively.

    *Please remember deposits are non refundable. If you book your appointment and pay your deposit before receiving approval, we cannot guarantee you will be approved and you will lose your deposit.

  • At Brow Therapy we prefer the Ombre Powder Brow because it offers a softer, more natural-looking gradient effect compared to microblading, making them ideal for all skin types, especially oily or sensitive skin. Unlike microblading, which uses hair-like strokes, the Ombre technique uses a pixelated shading method that creates a longer-lasting, more defined look with less trauma to the skin. It also requires fewer touch-ups and provides a more customizable finish, from soft and subtle to bold and defined, giving clients more versatility in achieving their desired brow shape.

  • STEP 1: The initial procedure takes approximately 2-3 hours. During this time, a consultation is done where we discuss your desired brow look, choose a color tone and draw the initial outline of the procedure area for your approval. Though our faces are NOT perfectly symmetrical (one side is usually flatter than the other), we do our very best to create as much symmetry as possible! Once you are satisfied with the basic shape and symmetry, we will begin the tattooing process.

    STEP 2: The second stage of the process is a TOUCH-UP appointment. The touch up takes approximately 1-2 hours. Touch-ups are done no earlier than 5 weeks of your initial procedure and no later than 10 weeks. If you do not schedule your touchup within 10 weeks, additional fees will apply.
    It is IMPERATIVE you complete the touch up treatment. Without it, the results will not be optimal. Color will fade significantly within 4 weeks as the skin heals, peels and fades. The touch up gives your technician a chance to make any changes or corrections necessary.


    *Occasionally a third touch up (5-10 weeks after your touch-up) is necessary for certain clients where the pigment does not take as well to the skin. Please note a third touchup will include additional fees.

  • Did you know that cosmetic tattooing is a two-step process to achieve the final result? Your first appointment is all about laying the foundation—establishing the shape and structure. It’s normal for the color to be lighter after this first step, as cosmetic pigments aren’t the same as body art pigments. We’re not meant to build heavy pigment layers right away. Instead, we focus on priming the skin, just like priming a wall before you paint! Everyone retains pigment differently, so it’s important not to oversaturate the brow at this stage.

    The second appointment is where we reinforce the pigment, fill in faded areas, and do all the detailed work. The healed results after your second session will be beautifully refined,  fuller and darker compared to your first healed appointment results.
