Cosmetic tattoo brows can last 1-3 years, depending on skin type, aftercare, and lifestyle. Annual touch-ups are recommended to maintain the color and shape.
What is the difference between microblading, powder brows, ombre brows and Nano brows?
Micro blading- uses a manual tool to create fine, hair-like strokes for a natural look.
Powder Brows - create a soft, shaded effect, like a makeup look.
Ombre Brows - with darker shading at the tail of the brow and lighter at the front for a gradient effect.
Combination Brows - Combo brows combine elements of both microblading (hair-like strokes) and powder shading (soft, filled-in appearance) for a natural yet defined eyebrow look.
Nano Brows - Nano Stroke & Shade brows feature fine, precise hair-like strokes created using nano blades combined with a subtle shading technique, resulting in a highly defined and natural-looking eyebrow appearance.
Is the procedure painful?
Most clients experience minimal discomfort. A topical numbing cream is applied before and during the procedure to ensure comfort.

The entire process typically takes 2-3 hours. This includes the consultation, designing the brow shape, numbing, and the actual tattooing process.

- Full healing takes about 4-6 weeks, during which time the color will lighten and settle.
- Avoid water, sweat, and makeup on your brows for the first 7-10 days.
Will cosmetic tattooing damage my natural brow hair?
No, the procedure is designed to enhance your brows without affecting your natural hair growth. In fact, many clients see improved growth due to the stimulation of the skin.

A touch-up is usually required 6-8 weeks after the initial procedure to perfect the brows. After that, annual touch-ups are recommended to maintain the colour and shape.
Will my brows look natural?
Yes, your artist will carefully design your brows based on your facial structure and preferences, using natural strokes or shading techniques to mimic real hair.

Are cosmetic tattoo brows safe?
Yes, when performed by a trained and certified professional using sterile equipment and high-quality pigments, the procedure is safe.
Does Feather Touch hurt?
The answer is no. We pre numb the area for around 1 hour with a numbing cream to ensure the treatment is as pain free as possible. During the treatment we top your pain relief up with a fast acting gel. While the sensation is slightly uncomfortable, the treatment is over and done with quickly. Clients say that the part they dislike the most is the noise, Feather Touch sounds slightly “clicky” or “scrapey”.
