2. Eyebrows that are ‘too long’

Eyebrows that are too long often start to wrap around the outside corner of the eye and visually take the eyes down with them. When brows are styled the desired effect is to lift and elongate the eye and they should always end going outwards.

When it comes to eyebrow styling, it is essential to create a shape that enhances your eyes and face. The ideal result is for your brows to end going outwards, creating a natural and flattering look. Our Artists are skilled in analysing your unique features and bone structure to create the perfect shape for your eyebrows. Our techniques are designed to provide you with natural-looking results that beautifully enhance your facial features.

3. Eyebrows that are too short or far apart

This can be caused by over-plucking or removing the tiny hairs at the beginning of the brow that tend to stick up. Additionally, this could be a symptom of an under-active thyroid, which can result in general hair loss.

We offer a range of solutions to help solve this problem with carefully crafted eyebrow tattoo hair strokes. We carefully analyse your unique features and preferences to create a brow shape that complements your face and makes your eyes pop. By strategically inserting a few little strokes to the beginning of your brows, our tattoo technique helps create good beginnings that enhance the natural-looking of your brows. This allows for a more authentic and balanced look that lifts and frames your eyes.

Our Feathertouch/Microblading treatment is the perfect solution to eyebrows that are too short or too far apart. It's hard to create good beginnings with pencil or eyebrow powder, but not with our technique.

4. One eyebrow is higher than the other

This is a very common problem that can be caused by one eye being naturally higher than the other. However, there is a solution to this problem, and we can help.

One of the most effective ways to even out uneven eyebrows is by shaping the high brow from the top and the lower one from the bottom. This correction, coupled with the use of a styling product, can create a more even appearance, making your brows look perfect together and suit your facial features.

At Browtisan, we pride ourselves on creating the perfect brow shape that complements your unique features while accentuating your eyes' natural beauty. We understand that brows that are exactly the same are not always necessary, and we strive to create a balanced and harmonious look that enhances your unique individuality.

5. Eyebrows are crooked or disconnected

We love shaping and creating a pathway for eyebrows that have lost their way. Through precise waxing, tweezing, and shaping techniques, we can help reshape your brows and guide them back to their natural position.

In some cases, simply shaping and creating a pathway may be enough to restore balance to your brows. However, for the most effective and long-lasting solution, we recommend considering our Feathertouch / Microblading treatments. Our treatments create a natural-looking effect that blends seamlessly with your existing brow hairs. This technique not only enhances the appearance of symmetry but also adds definition, filling in any spaces and creating a more polished and put-together look.

6. Eyebrows that are different colour than my hair

This can be caused by many factors, including lightened head hair or naturally darker eyebrows. However, there is a solution to this problem.

Here at Browtisan, we offer a range of solutions to help even out the tone of your eyebrows and create a harmonious, natural look. One option is to lighten your brows to match the hair on your head. This can be a dramatic change, and it can have a stunning effect on some people, making artificially lightened head hair look natural.

Alternatively, darkening your brows can also help create a more balanced and polished look. However, it's important to be careful not to go too dark as overly dark brows can look harsh, especially on mature women.

Our team of experts are always happy to advise you on the right tone and technique that will best suit your unique features and preferences and enhancing your natural beauty.

Don't worry anymore, Book an appointment and let us help you achieve the perfect eyebrow tone and shape that will enhance your overall appearance and give you the confidence to shine!

     

7. Eyebrow hair lacks colour (Typically true blondes or grey hair)

We understand that having eyebrows that lack color, particularly for those with true blonde or grey hair, can make it difficult to enhance your overall facial features. One solution is to tint your brows a few shades darker than their natural color, which can help create contrast between your skin and your brows. This can be a quick and easy fix that can help to make your brows more noticeable and enhance your eye color.

In addition to tinting, our stylists can also style your brows to suit your facial features and contours. This can include shaping and defining your brows to make them appear fuller and more prominent.

For a more long-lasting result, we recommend considering our Cosmetic Tattoo treatments. These techniques involves a gentle and powdery application of tattoo ink, which can create a natural-looking effect that is far more low maintenance than daily tinting.

Our focus is always on enhancing your natural beauty while providing a solution that is tailored to your unique preferences and needs.

8. Bushy & spread out eyebrows with no definition - or too close together

We understand that having bushy and spread out eyebrows with no defined shape can be a concern for many individuals. However, we see this as an opportunity to transform your look and create a "wow brow" that will enhance your overall facial features.

When you have naturally bushy and spread out eyebrows, we believe that they have great potential for a stunning transformation. By carefully styling and trimming your brows, we can reshape them to create a more defined and polished look. We will work closely with you to understand your preferences and desired outcome. We will trim and shape your brows in a way that brings out their natural beauty while also enhancing your facial features. This can involve removing excess hair to create a more refined and controlled shape.

In some cases, we may also suggest removing a small amount of hair from the center to create the illusion of more space between the brows if they appear too close together. This can further enhance the overall balance and symmetry of your face.

After the initial transformation, maintaining these brows usually requires regular maintenance appointments that align with your personal preferences and lifestyle. We will work with you to ensure that the maintenance plan suits your low-maintenance lifestyle, if applicable.

Book an appointment with us today and let our expert stylists work their magic to turn your bushy and spread out eyebrows into a stunning and defined, natural look.

     

9. Hair loss caused by illness or alopecia

We understand that experiencing hair loss due to illness or conditions such as alopecia can be a challenging and sensitive issue. We want to assure you that we have a solution that can help restore the appearance of natural eyebrows and boost your confidence.

One option is to draw in your eyebrows using makeup products. This can be a temporary solution that allows you to create the illusion of brows and define your facial features. However, we understand that this may not be the most convenient or long-lasting solution for everyone.

For a more permanent and natural-looking solution, our Feathertouch / Microblading might be the perfect solution. This technique involves implanting pigment into the skin to create individual hair-like strokes that mimic the appearance of real eyebrows. This process is meticulously performed by our skilled technicians with a focus on creating a result that is incredibly realistic and tailored to your unique features.

Hair stroke tattooing is a fabulous solution for those experiencing hair loss caused by illness or alopecia. It not only restores the appearance of brows but also provides a long-lasting solution that requires minimal upkeep. The result is natural-looking eyebrows that will boost your confidence and help you feel more like yourself.

Our team understands the sensitivity of this issue and will provide a caring and supportive environment throughout the entire process. We will work with you to understand your desired outcome and ensure that the hair stroke tattooing is tailored to your specific needs and preferences.

Don't let hair loss hold you back from feeling confident and beautiful anymore - Book a consultation with us today, and together, we will find the perfect solution to help restore the appearance of your eyebrows and enhance your overall look.

      

10. Eyebrows have gaps or scars

We understand that dealing with gaps or scars in your eyebrows can be frustrating, especially when previous attempts to correct them may have resulted in uneven and thin brows. We want to assure you that we have a solution that will help you achieve natural-looking, defined eyebrows, while preserving the integrity of your existing brows.

Our expert stylists believe in working with what you have rather than trying to force a uniform shape that may not be suitable for your unique features. Instead of removing surrounding hairs or destroying a good brow to match the patchy one, our approach is to create a shape that complements and frames the overall brow area, including the gaps or scars.

We will work with you to understand your preferences and desired outcome. Our stylists will use high-quality styling products and techniques to fill in the spaces, create more volume, and define the edges of your brows. This will help to minimize the appearance of gaps or scars and create a more balanced and polished look.

Additionally, if you are looking for a more permanent solution, we recommend considering our Feathertouch / Microblading treatments. This technique involves implanting pigment into the skin to create individual hair-like strokes that can fill in the gaps and create a more natural appearance. This can be an effective and hassle-free solution, providing you with long-lasting results.

Our experienced team understands the importance of preserving your natural brow shape and creating a result that enhances your overall facial features.
