Here’s Everything You Need To Know About Brow Tinting

It’s the age of tinted everything: tinted lip balms, tinted moisturisers… and tinted brows?

If you’ve not heard of brow tinting, we don’t blame you. The shy cousin of brow embroidery, brow tinting hasn’t received the same influencer status as the other more popular semi-permanent eyebrow procedure.

However, for people who find microblading eyebrow embroidery intimidating, brow tinting is a good middle ground for an eyebrow service that is gentle, almost risk-free, and yet produces natural, subtle results.

Psst! Be sure to check out our article on the differences between embroidery, henna and tint!

What is brow tinting?

Eyebrow tinting is the process of dying the eyebrows, which also leaves a stain on the skin underneath. That’s right – much like how the base of a coffee cup always leaves a stain on the table.

This semi-permanent dye method can be used to create the appearance of fuller brows – all without the downtime, risks, and pain that is associated with eyebrow embroidery. (But did you know? Some eyebrow embroidery techniques are virtually painless – check out Avone Beauty Secrets’ 9V Ultimate Virtual Brow Embroidery!)

What happens during brow tinting?

A brow tinting appointment at Avone Beauty Secrets will take just about 30 minutes of your day. Not a big investment at all, for something that will give you nicely made-up brows for a month!

Before jumping into the brow tint proper, your assigned brow artist will assess your brows and provide recommendations on what will suit you best. If you have any preferences, now is the time to let your brow artist know.

To give you an idea of how your chosen brow shape works, the brow artist will draw on the design using an eyebrow pencil first. If needed, they may also trim any stray brows and neaten up your brow line.

Then, the real work begins – for your brow artists, not you – as you sit back and relax while your brows are being done. An expert brow artist will mix the dye to match your hair or desired colour, and then apply it onto your brows with a small applicator.

A few minutes is all it takes, and the dye will be wiped off to reveal your newly tinted brows!

What’s the best way to care for my brow tint?

The average brow tint lasts about 3 to 4 weeks, but this also depends a variety of factors like your skin type, as well as how well you care for it.

For longer lasting brow tints, we recommend following these aftercare tips:

• Avoid washing or touching your brows for at least a day after getting them tinted, to allow the dye time to settle.
• Try your best not to rub your eye area, as this could cause the tint to come off quicker.
• For the time being, switch to non-oil-based facial products, including makeup removers, as the oils may cause the colour to fade.
• Groom and shape your brows gently and sparingly, as excessive combing will lead to more hair fall and lift the dye prematurely.

Is brow tinting suitable for me?

Brow tinting is suitable for almost anyone!

Because it is low commitment, low risk, and low cost, it’s an easy way for anyone to get a fresh look for their brows. Most brow tints last for about 3 to 4 weeks – which could be an advantage if you just want to try out a new brow style, or glam up for a one-time event within the coming month.

If you are terribly afraid of pain and needles or simply want absolutely zero downtime, brow tinting is also an ideal choice as compared to eyebrow embroidery which may cause some redness, swelling, and scabbing post-procedure.

Overall, there’s really not much harm to trying out brow tinting! For those with allergies or skin sensitivity concerns, you’ll also be glad to know that we use a natural, vegetable-based dye for our brow tints, so there is a lower risk of unwanted reactions as compared to using chemical dyes.
