LexyBrows

Every appointment starts with a personalized consultation about your brow goals, shape and style, and which technique and colour suit your natural brows and features. The flow is: consultation → brow mapping & pre-draw → colour selection → procedure → aftercare instructions. I map and pre-draw your brows so you can see and approve the shape, and we adjust together before any tattooing begins. No two clients get the same brow — each set is customized to your existing hair, facial structure, skin type and desired result.

Plan for about 1.5–2 hours for an initial appointment so nothing is rushed. Most clients find the discomfort minimal: a topical numbing product is applied before and, when appropriate, during the procedure. Sensitivity varies, so you may still feel scratching, pressure or tenderness.

Clients must be 18 years or older to receive permanent makeup services.

Text me at (626) 392-7235 — that's the only way to book. There is no online booking system. Send a text with the service you're interested in and a few makeup-free photos of your brows, and I'll reply with availability and next steps.

A $100 deposit secures all new and returning client appointments, and is applied toward the total cost of your service. The remaining balance is due the day of your appointment. Deposits are non-refundable — if you cancel rather than reschedule within the policy, the deposit is forfeited.

You may reschedule up to two times, as long as the change is made at least 10 days before your appointment. Additional reschedules are subject to a rescheduling fee. If you cancel outright, your deposit is forfeited.

Please arrive on time — proper mapping and application take the full appointment, and shortening that compromises the result. Clients arriving 20 minutes or more late may not be able to receive their service and will need to rebook with a new deposit.

For 24 hours before, avoid alcohol and excessive caffeine or energy drinks — they can increase sensitivity and bleeding. Don't arrive with irritated, sunburned, peeling or otherwise compromised skin around the brows. If you take prescription blood thinners, do not stop them for a brow appointment without approval from your prescribing provider — text me before booking so we can decide whether the procedure is appropriate.

Possibly. All previous permanent makeup must be disclosed before your appointment. Send clear, makeup-free photos of your brows before booking so I can evaluate the existing pigment, shape, saturation and skin condition. Not every old tattoo can simply be covered — if the pigment is too dark, saturated or discoloured, or the shape differs significantly from your goal, removal or fading may be recommended first.

Yes. Natural brow hair isn't required. The procedure can add shape, definition and the appearance of fullness even where hair is very sparse. The best technique depends on your skin, existing hair and desired result.

Please text me before booking or sending a deposit if you: have existing permanent makeup on the brows; have active irritation, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, acne, infection, open wounds or sunburn in the area; have recently had facial treatments, peels, lasers or injectables near the brows; take medication affecting bleeding, healing or the skin; have a medical condition that may interfere with healing; or are pregnant or breastfeeding. I do not perform cosmetic tattooing on clients who are currently pregnant or breastfeeding — you're welcome to book once that's no longer the case.

The primary healing period is 7–14 days. Brows look darker and more defined right after the procedure, then gradually soften as they heal. Healing continues below the surface, which is why the optional perfecting session isn't done until roughly 6–10 weeks later. Detailed aftercare instructions are given at your appointment.

Cosmetic brow tattoos are semi-permanent and fade gradually. Retention varies with skin type, skincare, sun exposure, lifestyle, metabolism and technique — think of them softening and lightening over time rather than disappearing on a set date. Colour refreshes should be booked based on how your brows have faded, not automatically every year. Tattooing brows that are still heavily saturated can lead to dense or muddy results over time.

Not necessarily — healing and pigment retention vary by person. At an optional perfecting session (6–10 weeks, $75) we evaluate your healed result and make small adjustments to colour, shape, density, or spots where pigment healed lighter.

Inspiration photos are always welcome and help me understand your preferences, but every set is customized. Your final shape, colour and technique are chosen based on your natural brow growth, facial features, skin type, existing pigment and desired result. The goal is brows that complement you — not a copy of someone else's.
