your cosmetic nurse begins the session by measuring your face and deciding the ideal brow shape. feel free to bring in photos of a desired look. Once you agree on a shape, your technician will:
- draw out the shape on both eyebrows
- remove excess hair

The first session is the longest and takes about 2 hours.
After the procedure, your eyebrows will appear darker for up to 5 days. The brow color will gradually lighten as your eyebrows heal.

-You’ll return for your second session about 4 weeks later. This is the perfecting session.
-At this appointment, your makeup technician “perfects” the design by increasing the thickness and tweaking brow shape, if necessary.
-The second session is shorter and takes about 1 hour.
