The Brow Strengthener is made from 100% cold-pressed organic castor oil, derived from the seeds of the castor oil plant (Ricinus communis). The oil from the castor oil plant is a natural ingredient which is known for its nourishing properties, benefiting both brows and lashes and their follicles. It has an intense moisturising effect for the skin too. This makes it a product which has multiple benefits due to the Omega 9 fatty acids it contains which makes hair thicker and shinier. Shavata Brow Strengthener is the ideal product for over-plucked eyebrows, helping grow sparse areas back. It is packaged in a tube with a roller ball applicator which allows easy application, absorbing into the skin with a massaging movement.
Over-plucking not only runs the risk of losing your most flattering eyebrow shape, it can also lead to permanent hair loss. Always tweeze your brows in natural light using a large mirror for an overall realistic view, and a magnified hand mirror to help with the detail. Take a few hairs from each brow at a time – it’s easier than doing one and trying to copy it on the other side. If you make a mistake, grow it out – don’t try to correct it or you’ll end up plucking your brows to nothing. Brow hair takes eight to 13 weeks to grow, depending on your metabolism and age, so be patient and wait as long as you can before getting them shaped by an expert, who will analyse your features to find the best shape for you. A professional tint will make brows appear naturally thicker and fuller.
Threading actually helps slow down and reduce hair growth. Threaded hairs tend to grow back thinner, thus making it easier to remove and less painful when threaded. Tweezing just one time in between will reverse all that is achieved from threading and can further irritate follicles which can cause hair to become ingrown, coarser, and darker.
Threading is an ancient method of hair removal which originated in the Indian subcontinent, spread through the Middle East and Far East, and is now gaining popularity in the West. With the mere use of a pure cotton thread, brow hairs are removed whilst creating a shape. The thread is rolled over untidy hairlines, and the hair is plucked from the follicle. Our Brow Artists are expertly trained to create the ultimate personalized “perfect arch” to frame your face. Unlike tweezing where a single hair is pulled out each time, threading removes an entire row of hair resulting in a straighter line. The top layers of skin are not peeled or traumatized leading to less irritation and damage to the skin. The entire face can be threaded, resulting in a smoother and younger look. Make-up glides on more easily when facial hair is fully removed.
Brow tinting is great for those who have recently changed their hair colour, noticed grey hairs or want thicker-looking brows.
They differ between each person. For instance, brow threading can last up to 4 weeks, but for some it may only be 2 weeks. Customers who have brow/lashing tinting can last up to 4 weeks, but those with finer hairs may only last up to 2 weeks.

The eyelash is not curled, but raised, and stays in position for approximately 6-8 weeks. A lash lift is ideal for someone that doesn’t like the idea of lash extensions, or cannot have them. The result is immediate and will make you feel a million dollars!
