All about eyebrow tinting in Brisbane

Eyebrow tinting is a semi permanent cosmetic treatment where a special dye is applied to the brow hairs. The dye comes in a variety of brow colours and can be customised to your hair and skin tone for a natural look. Eyebrow tints last 4–6 weeks depending on skin type and hair texture. The treatment can also fill in sparse areas of brow hair making it perfect for those who want to enhance their natural brow shape. The treatment takes about 15–30 minutes and the results are amazing whether you want more defined brows or a bold new look.

  1. More Definition & Shape – Tinting adds depth and structure to your brows making them look fuller and more defined.
  2. Time Saver – Say goodbye to daily brow pencils and gels. Tinting is a wake-up-and-go solution.
  3. Covers Grey Hair – Perfect for those who have grey or light brows that need a colour boost.
  4. Long-Lasting Results – With aftercare tinting can last several weeks making it a cost-effective beauty treatment.
  5. Customisable Shades – Eyebrow tints come in various shades so you can have a natural brow look that matches your hair and skin tone.
  6. Waterproof & Smudge Proof – Unlike brow powders and pencils, tinted brows won’t smudge or fade in the heat, humidity or during workouts.
  7. Works with All Brow Types – Whether you have coarse or fine brow hairs there is a brow tint kit for you.

While eyebrow tinting has many benefits there are some downsides:

  • Temporary – Unlike microblading tinting fades and requires monthly brow tinting touch-ups.
  • Allergic reaction – Some people may be sensitive to the dye and get blistering on the brow skin.
  • Uneven fading – The tint may fade unevenly and require maintenance.
  • Not on grey hair – Tinting doesn’t always work on grey or coarse brow hairs.
  • Not for everyone – Some skin types especially sensitive skin may react to the dye and get irritation.

Eyebrow tinting is great for anyone who wants to enhance their natural brow shape or go bold. It’s especially good for those with lighter brow hair or sparse areas of the brow as it fills in gaps and creates fuller, more even brows. Brows come in all shapes and sizes and semi-permanent brow dye works on fine and coarse brow hairs. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance solution to your daily brow makeup routine, then you’ll love the long-lasting results of eyebrow tinting.

The procedure takes around 15–30 minutes depending on what you want. Here’s what to expect:

Consultation: Before starting, your technician will discuss your desired results and assess your natural brow shape and colour. They’ll recommend a tint shade that matches your hair and skin tone for the most natural effect. They may also ask about your skin type and any past allergic reactions to hair dyes.

Cleansing: The area around your brows is gently cleaned to remove makeup, oil, or dirt. This ensures the tint adheres properly. Some technicians may lightly exfoliate the skin for better results.

Patch Test (Optional): A patch test may be done by applying a small amount of the dye behind your ear or inner elbow to check for allergic reactions. This step helps prevent any adverse effects during the tinting process.

Application: The tint is applied with a small brush or applicator, coating all the brow hairs evenly. The technician applies it with precision so it doesn’t stain the surrounding skin.

Processing Time: The tint is left on for about 5–10 minutes, depending on the desired intensity. The longer it stays, the darker the colour. Your technician monitors the process closely to achieve the perfect result.

Removal: Once the processing time is complete, the excess tint is gently wiped away with a damp cotton pad, revealing darker, fuller brows.

Finishing Touches: Finally, your technician may groom your brows by trimming or shaping any stray hairs, leaving them polished and natural-looking.

Aftercare is key to extending the life of your brow tint. Follow these:

  1. No Water for 24 Hours: Don’t get your brows wet for 24 hours after the treatment.
  2. No Exfoliating: Don’t use exfoliants or harsh products around your brows, they will fade the tint faster.
  3. No Swimming: Chlorine from swimming pools and saltwater from the beach will fade the tint quickly, so best to avoid for a few days.
  4. Brow Tint Aftercare: Moisturise the skin around your brows to keep them hydrated and help the tint last longer.

Choosing the right colour is key to a natural look. Here’s a quick guide:
