What Is Eyebrow Tinting?
If you’re not familiar with eyebrow tinting, let us break down the details on this brow service that’s been popular for both men and women dating way, WAY back! (We’re talking all the way back to ancient Egyptian days!)
First, what is eyebrow tinting?
- Eyebrow tinting is the process of dying natural brow hairs. (like getting your hair colored, just on your eyebrows!)
- It helps define and contour your look to add a pop of color to light or barely-there brows.
- It means no more brow pencils or brow makeup. (Best news, we know!)
- At The Lash Lounge, eyebrow tinting involves using a dye that is 100% safe and in an exclusive formula that’s made to be used on the brow area.
- When done by a professional (like us!), eyebrow tinting can last up to 4 weeks.
So you know: At our salons, our expert stylists are trained thoroughly in eyebrow tinting in order to perfect the application for each guest.
What to Know Before Your Eyebrow Tinting Appointment
Before you book an appointment, here are a couple of important notes about brow tinting from The Lash Lounge to keep in mind:
- Our top priority during each brow tint service is keeping the guest’s eyes and skin safe.
- If you have allergies or sensitivities, we recommend contacting your local salon before booking a brow tint so they can discuss options with you like performing a patch test prior to the application.
Last but never least, if you don’t choose us to perform your eyebrow tint, please be sure to do your research on who you select and make sure that they have been professionally trained AND certified to perform tinting.
The Eyebrow Tinting Process
Now that you know what eyebrow tinting is, let’s break down the 30-minute process at The Lash Lounge from start to finish.
1. You will have a one-on-one consultation with your stylist before the service begins.
2. Your stylist will discuss the custom color options with you and help you choose a shade that complements your hair color, skin tone and features.
3. The service begins! You will lay back, get comfy, close your eyes and prepare to relax. 4.
4. Your stylist will begin to apply the tinting solution in your chosen color and apply it on both brows. (Note: At The Lash Lounge, the dye application process is done in a way by a trained stylist so that it avoids any tingling sensations.)
5. You will continue to relax as the tinting solution sets. When the color has set and the solution is removed, your stylist will dry your brows and gently comb them.
6. Then the moment you’ve been waiting for… your stylist will hand over a mirror so you can FINALLY see your beautiful, tinted brows!
