HD Brows is not just a treatment, it’s an experience. Your brow journey begins with an in-depth consultation. As well as asking about colour & style, we are assessing the movement of your brows and taking your personal style and bone structure into account.

The next stage is creating a bespoke colour mix and mapping especially for you. Our tint picks up small brow hairs which can be incorporated into your final shape adding definition and shape. Our mapping technique is great for creating symmetry and balance.

Brows are then shaped with waxing, threading, and tweezing. Using these techniques, we can preen your brows into your desired shape. At this stage we may put together a plan for future appointments if a hair growth program may be required or a step by step re shape which requires further hair growth.

Before the finished result is complete, we will show you how to finish your brows using our award winning products and provide you with a unique online shopping code should you wish to purchase any products.

HD Brows are very different to HD Brow Microblading. Microbladng is a form of cosmetic tattooing involving depositing pigment into the skin using a very fine needled hand held blade. HD brows uses tinting and hair removal to create the shape.

Although not official classed as semi-permanent, the brow tint is a permanent vegetable dye. The effects of HD Brows diminish as your natural hair grows over time, usually around 4 – 6 weeks.

HD Brows are so versatile that we can create an array of styles and shapes. That’s because they are designed especially for you.

Waxing, threading, and tweezing are not known to be overly relaxing; some pain may be experienced and this is on an individual basis. We use a soothing lavender oil immediately after hair removal which helps to calm the area.

The main component of your HD Brows are the tinting and shaping aspect of your treatment which will remain until your hair growth gradually replaces the effect. Any make up which is used to finish the brows should be removed with your usual make up removal routine.

HD Brow Sculpt is the “HD” version of brow lamination. Brow sculpt includes an entire HD brow treatment as well as the process of straightening or relaxing the hairs of the brow to create a fluffy brushed up brow, symmetry and balance or taming unruly hairs into a better shape.

The treatment is for anyone over the age of 16, however from age 16 – 18 we would require parental consent.

This varies greatly from person to person and depends a lot on your current and desired shape and then the hair growth that we would need to create the new shape.

We want you to be happy with your shape at all times and therefore sometimes we need to make small changes at each appointment so the shape can change gradually and naturally over time.

We can also recommend products which can increase hair growth and thus reducing the over all time it would take. Usually after 1 or 2 treatments we would have a good idea of the number of treatments it may take on your journey to beautiful brows.

HD Brows began back in 2008 founded by Karen Betts and Nilam Patel with Make up by HD Brows being launched in the spring of 2014.

Of course! Our HD Brow stylists will work out a regrowth programme with you in order to create the correct shape and thickness of your perfect brow. We will advise you how to use products like our amazing Lash and Brow Booster to achieve rapid results.

Usually (not always) you will be asked to undertake a regrowth programme, this is vital for ensuring the long term development and maintenance of gorgeous brows, this involves throwing away your tweezers and returning for maintenance around every 4 weeks.

This depends on many factors, our therapists will be able to guide you. The effects of just 1 HD Brows treatment will last around 3 – 4 weeks however the number of treatments will vary depending on how fast your hair grows in between visits and the overall shape that’s to be achieved.

Most people can have the HD Brows treatments, and a medical questionnaire is carried out before each treatment. The treatment cannot be carried out on anyone under 18 or pregnant.
