FAQ

It’s not entirely painless, however we use a combination of effective numbing prior & during the treatment to ensure you are nice and comfortable. Most clients fall asleep!

Book in for your brows and leave it up to Britney to advise on the day. Skin type, natural eyebrows, lifestyle and desired result all must be taken into consideration before deciding on the best suited technique for you.

Aside from the obvious (beautiful brows), upon arriving Britney will take you through a through consultation to better understand what you’re hoping to achieve. It’s important for you to understand what can & cant’t be achieved with your brows. Once the consultation is complete and everyone is on the same page, numbing cream will be applied before the magic happens.

Worried about how they look/fade longterm? Don’t be! We specialise in results that look beautiful now and age nicely in years to come. Fading varies between clients but you can expect to experience a decent amount of fading between 1-4 years. The more sessions you have had, the longer they will take to fade.

Using SPF. We recommend a regular brow sculpt to keep them looking their best. Our favourite daily brow product is Revitabrow tinted brow gel in soft brown.

If you have light or blonde brows then yes! To create a seamless blend between hair and tattoo it’s important to keep it up.

If you’re lucky enough to have lots of natural hair then yes! This allows us to have plenty of treatment time as possible. Due to numbing the skin, we aren’t unable to wax them on the day of the appointment but we will tidy them up for you using tweezers.

Skin type, lifestyle, technique and medications are a few contributing factors to how long they will last. Oily skins are generally more prone to fading the fastest.

Britney is an experienced artist who has corrected many brows over the years. It all depends on their shape, size, colour, saturation and whether you’re happy them. If your old cosmetic tattoo is over saturated, we aren’t able to add fresh pigment so we may suggest removal prior to your appointment or simply leaving them for longer to allow them to fade on their own. If your brows are fading red or cool toned you may need a colour correction before proceeding. We won’t work over brows with previous tattoo unless we are 100% confident we’re able to make them perfect. Send us an email (hello@bobeauty.co.nz) with 3-5 clear images of them to see if we would be able to work our magic or even better book a brow shape with us so we can see them in person.

Yes! Whilst you can definitely get away with doing them less frequently, its important to keep this up to ensure your hair and tattoo blend nicely and to keep the shape defined. Often clients will think they’re due for a refresh but all they need is in fact a tint! If you have light hairs your hair will sit on top of the pigment, rather than blend into it.

It depends how dark/defined you like your brows! If you like a natural look day to day you’ll be good to go as they are. For something a little extra we love using a tinted brow gel daily to fluff and add colour to your natural brows.
