My mom taught me many things, but there were three takeaways that reigned supreme: the importance of investing in RRSPs, the life-changing magic of therapy and to never—under any circumstances—mess with my eyebrows. But since not one woman from my generation heeded their mother’s advice on the brow front, in recent years we’ve leaned into beauty innovations like microblading to correct our sorry over-tweezing.
Tran uses a combination of traditional microblading with a newer technique that is gaining in popularity—ombre powder brow—which she tailors to the client’s natural brow shape, skin type and desired results. Using a single needle, Tran deposited pigment into the skin in hundreds of tiny dots that create an overall powder-like effect—which is unlike microblading, where additional pigment is deposited after the cuts are made. The result is a less harsh, more controllable colour that she can tailor to her client’s wishes. “I can stop at just a few layers and it’d be nice and light, but sometimes people like it a little bit darker,” she explains.
In my non-expert experience, it’s a great option for people who have decent natural brows and minor imperfections. Or for people who are lazy AF and want to shave off five minutes of their morning routine by skipping the brow pencil. Next, Tran applied a numbing cream that helped with the slight sting as she got to work. It did begin to wear off during the procedure, but the pain was bearable. While the full process—including mapping, waiting for the numbing to kick in and the actual tattooing—took three hours, it really didn’t feel that long. Though I couldn’t talk through most of the tattooing, Tran kept me entertained by sharing her own brow story, and kept me up-to-date on my brow’s progress the entire time.
Like for every other client, a one-hour follow-up was booked at the end of my initial visit for about a month later. During this appointment, I asked Tran to fill my brows in a bit darker and add just a few strokes of traditional microblading where I had more noticeable bald spots and to give my brows a slightly more feathery effect. Using a hybrid technique, Tran explained, lets her create the perfect brow for her clients based on their individual needs.
