Question 1

How do I choose the right brow treatment?

Accepted Answer

During your consultation, Samantha will assess your skin type, natural brow growth, facial features and desired look before recommending the most suitable treatment. Whether that’s Nano Brows, Ombre Brows or Combination Brows, every treatment is tailored to you to achieve the most flattering and natural result.

Question 2

Does permanent makeup hurt?

Accepted Answer

Most clients are pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the treatment is. A high-quality topical anaesthetic is used throughout the procedure to minimise discomfort, with many clients describing the sensation as light scratching or gentle pressure.

Question 3

How long do permanent brows last?

Accepted Answer

Permanent brows typically last between 1 and 3 years depending on your skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure and skincare routine. To keep your brows looking their best, most clients choose a colour boost every 12 to 24 months.

Question 4

What is the healing process like?

Accepted Answer

Your brows will appear darker immediately after treatment before gradually softening over the following few weeks. During healing, you may experience light flaking as the skin naturally renews itself. Full healing takes around 4–6 weeks, revealing beautifully healed, natural-looking brows.

Question 5

Is a top-up included?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your treatment includes one perfecting appointment approximately 4-6 weeks after your initial procedure. This allows any areas that have healed lighter to be refined and ensures the best long-term result.

Question 6

How do I prepare for my appointment?

Accepted Answer

To achieve the best results, avoid alcohol, caffeine and blood-thinning medications (where medically appropriate) for 24 hours before your appointment. You should also avoid Botox around the brow area for two weeks beforehand and discontinue retinol products around the brows for one week prior to treatment.

Question 7

Can I have permanent makeup if I’m pregnant or breastfeeding?

Accepted Answer

For your safety and comfort, permanent makeup is not recommended during pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding. We’d be delighted to welcome you once you’ve finished breastfeeding.

Question 8

Will my brows look natural?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Samantha specialises in creating soft, natural-looking brows that complement your features rather than overpower them. Every brow is individually designed to suit your face, ensuring a result that looks beautifully balanced and timeless.

Question 9

Can old tattooed brows be corrected?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, yes. Samantha has extensive experience working with previous permanent makeup and can advise whether a correction, colour adjustment or removal sessions would provide the best outcome. A consultation is recommended to assess your existing brows.

Question 10

Which brow treatment gives the most natural results?

Accepted Answer

Nano Brows are generally the most natural-looking option, creating ultra-fine hairstrokes that closely resemble real brow hair. However, the best treatment depends on your skin type, existing brow hair and desired finish. We will recommend the technique that will heal most beautifully for you.
