Permanent Eyebrows

Shaded brows are created by tattooing a soft shadow of color in the eyebrows.  Shaded brows are also known as a powder fill eyebrow or stippling. This beautiful technique mimics your eyebrow pencil or powder. It fills in eyebrows with colors ranging from light (blonde) to dark (brown) colors which vary in transparency and color saturation. Ombre, gradient effects and color options are endless. Shading or the eyebrow stippling can be done by hand or machine. We offer both for their different effects. Shading or stippling effects can be transparent like using watercolor or it can be more solid. Most natural will be a semi-transparent application that creates a shadow of see-through color. When thinking of transparency and color saturation, think of how you apply your eyebrow pencil or powder; a more natural look with your skin still showing through your makeup, or heavier application with no skin showing. Shading has a nice fade away and gradually gets lighter.

Hair strokes/microblading are techniques used to simulate hair and add a dimensional quality to the brows. On its own, simulated strokes look best when there is a fair amount of natural hair present to hide and blend the hair strokes which are tattooed lines. Hair strokes are created either with microblading type needles (manually done by dragging needles to create a superficial cut) or by machine using nano needles (very fine needles) for micro fine hair strokes without a cut. Your overall goal and skin type are taken into consideration for optimal results. Hair strokes look the most hair like the day they are done. They will blur as they fade away and gradually get lighter and widen.

Blended Brows™ is Jill’s signature technique. The key to a great brow is blending shading and if needed a hair stroke technique. With all techniques dimension, movement, and volume are the goal. The 3D layered effect is an infusion of shading techniques, possibly some hair strokes, but not always, and also use of various colors which results in beautifully restored and natural looking brows. This technique was developed as a result of the majority of client requests. Most clients want a natural brow yet they also say they don’t want to wear makeup. I’m very careful when it comes to the hair strokes because of how they age and widen, so my approach depends on the skin and how much existing hair there is.
