What Is Eyebrow Tinting?
Eyebrow tinting is the process of applying semi-permanent dye to enhance, shape, and define your brows. “Tinting allows a professional to manipulate the brow area by darkening the fine hairs that surround the perimeter of the brow to increase the width, “It also allows the specialist to darken the fine hairs in the inner core of the brow that are in less dense areas. This creates a longer brow line (brow tail) or fuller front and a more ideal shape. ”The tint is made of semi-permanent dye or henna that is mixed to match your existing shade. “It gives the appearance of thicker, more youthful-looking brows.
How Long Does it Take?
Takes only about 15 minutes. First, you'll consult with a specialist to discuss how full and natural you want your brows to look. Then the specialist will prep the area, cleaning the brows and applying a thin layer of petroleum jelly around them to prevent any accidental skin staining. The dye is then mixed and carefully applied, first in the direction of how your brow hairs grow and then a second layer is applied in the opposite direction. The dye is left on for a few minutes to attain optimal colour, then any excess is removed with a damp paper towel. Don't freak out if you see dye on the skin underneath your brows: this will wash away after a day or two. It might be a good idea to schedule your first appointment on a Friday, so you can monitor the results over the weekend.

Avoid exfoliating or use of any oil-based products in that area as it will cause the tint to fade faster. ISO recommends avoiding any products that might further irritate the thin eyebrow skin, such as retinoids and retinols. We recommend to apply a thin layer of Vaseline to the surrounding skin as a form of protective barrier between the dye and your skin. ISO likes to recommend using something like castor or almond oil to create the same protective barrier on the brow and to help the tint from fading too fast.
