Brow Airbrush + Wax

Airbrush colour misted across the hairs and the skin between them, plus waxing to remove everything outside the shape.

Offered on-site by Charm Brows & Beauty.

The combination handles both halves of the problem: airbrush fills the gaps so the brow looks full, and waxing gives it a clean, defined outline. It's the natural choice if your brows are sparse in places but also untidy at the edges.

• Consultation about shape and colour intensity
• Brows cleansed and prepared
• Waxing to define the outline, plus tweezing of strays
• Airbrush colour built in light layers over the brow
• Soothing product on the skin
• Aftercare advice

Allow about an hour. Your therapist shapes the brow first with wax and tweezers, then builds the airbrush colour in fine layers over the finished shape.

Soothing product is applied at the end. Brief redness around the brows after waxing is normal and settles quickly.

Sparse brows that also need tidying — the fullest result without lamination or permanent makeup. Tell your therapist about retinoids, acid exfoliants or acne medication before booking, as waxing may not be suitable.

Avoid makeup on the brows, exfoliating, sauna, steam and sun exposure for 24 hours after waxing, and keep the area clean and untouched.

Afterwards, avoid scrubs, acids and oil cleansers on the brows — they lift the airbrush colour. The colour lasts several days to around two weeks.

• Let the hair grow for two weeks before your appointment
• Ask for the colour built lightly first; it can always go deeper
• Keep makeup off the brows for 24 hours after waxing
• Avoid scrubs and oil cleansers on the area to keep the colour longer
• Consider adding lamination if your hairs also grow in awkward directions
