Brow Henna

​

What is Brow Henna?

Henna brows are a form of eyebrow tinting that is used to stain the skin beneath the brow hairs. The purpose of this is to cast a shadow or create an illusion of depth and fullness in the area, visually filling in any sparseness. Henna is a natural dye made from a plant known as hina or the henna tree.

​

How does it work?

Your brows are mapped out to give an even outline of the brow, then a custom blend of henna tint will be applied to the brow area (usually 2-3 coats), then left to develop.  The henna is then removed.  With henna the dye molecule (lawsone) binds to the keratin in your skin, which leaves a semi-permanent stain.

​

We stock a wide range of Brow Henna products that are ethically sourced, vegan and comes in 10 different shades!

​

How long will it take and how long does it last?

The appointment takes around 30-40 minutes with our trained henna brow expert.  Henna brows will stain the skin for around 7 days and dye the hair up to six weeks. Henna is great for covering grey/white/coarse hairs as well.

How do I look after my Henna Brows?

• Keep your brows dry and product free for 24 hours to create the best skin stain.

• When cleansing your face, wipe around the henna'd brows to prolong the skin stain.

• When swimming apply a brow oil or serum over the brows to stop the chloring and salt from prematurely lightening your brows.

• Avoid exfoliating the brows and don't apply resurfacing serums over the brows as this will lighten them.
