  • At Allure Brows we offer 4 types of brow treatments to give slightly different results. All services include Allure’s bespoke brow mapping measured specifically to your face and brow shape. In order of longevity, you may choose from the following options below:

    Brow Tint & Shape £30 - Your original tint and wax, this is best suited to clients who have naturally even brows, without the need to fill gaps, or adjust the brow shape. As this treatment is not designed to stain the skin. It is perfect for adding dimension and colour and can last on the brow hairs for up to 2 weeks. This is the only brow service offered for pregnant / breastfeeding clients.

    Hybrid Tint & Shape £35 - This is an upgrade to your original tint and shape, and sits in between Henna & Brow tint. Hybrid offers a slightly ‘softer’ look to Henna Brows. It is designed to stain the skin under the hairs to give a fuller illusion and will tint the brow hairs for up to 6 weeks.

    Henna Brows £40 - Henna Brows is our most effective tinting method providing a more intense stain on the skin, this tint is most effective for clients with uneven brows / sparse areas. The stain will last a few days to a week on the skin, and up to 6 weeks on the hairs. Please be aware if you have very skinny eyebrows and require a bigger shape, or very asymmetric eyebrows you would be most suited to Ombre Brows.

    Ombre Brows £350 - Ombre Brows is a semi-permanent make up procedure with the longest lasting, smudge proof and waterproof results. This technique differs to microblading and does not consist of hair strokes. Instead ombre creates a fuller looking powdery brow resembling a similar look to make up and offers the best long term healed result. The treatment is a two part process and a top up is required around 5 weeks later, after this is complete results can last up to 3 years, with the option of colour boosts sessions to refresh your enhancement. To check if you may be suitable for this treatment please click here.

  • Henna and Ombre brows provide a similar looking result, with the difference being Henna is a form of tinting and Ombre Brows is semi permanent makeup (tattoo). Henna brows is a good alternative for clients who are not suitable for ombre brows or are in need of a quick fix treatment without any aftercare process / healing period.

    I have previous brow tattoo, can I make an appointment?

    If you have previously had your brows microbladed or have semi permanent brow tattoo you are able to book in for Hybrid tint & shape or Henna Brows. If you would like to book in for Semi permanent make up (Ombre Brows) your existing tattoo would need to be mostly faded in order to work on. For ombre bookings you must send photos by Instagram or whats app showing close ups of full face and also each side. Images must be taken on the back camera and not selfie camera in good lighting or facing a window, and brows must be free from makeup.

  • For best results it is essential that you attend your first session with your brows how you would normally pencil / fill them. A photo is not clear enough and | need to see an idea of what size you are comfortable with.

    Every face shape, width and size is totally different. It is not possible to completely move your brows and ultimately will be kept as close to your natural shape as possible.

    If you consent to images please come how you would like to be photographed / avoid heavy foundation.

  • * Semi permanent make up payments are split between a booking fee and remaining balance is due 1 day prior. No other payment plans are available.
