Brow Henna

Brow henna serves as an alternative to brow tinting, as it not only tints the brows but also stains the skin beneath them. This technique adds dimension and fullness to the area, effectively masking any thinness. Henna, a natural and vegan dye blended with demineralized water, is employed for this purpose. Its formulation excludes peroxide activators, rendering it safe for individuals with sensitive skin. (Note: A patch test can be conducted upon request before the treatment.)

How does it work?

A custom blend paste is made by mixing henna with demineralised water, which is applied throughout the brows and let to dry for 10 minutes. This process is then repeated to build upon the colour. Once the henna is dry, the residue is gently removed with a damp cotton. A henna conditioner or oil is then applied.

The whole henna process may take up to 45 mins (including shaping – if necessary).

How long does it last?

The outcomes of henna application can vary between individuals. This variation hinges on factors like the person’s hair and skin type, as well as their daily regimen involving makeup and skincare. For instance, individuals with oilier skin and sparser brows might not experience as long-lasting results. This is because henna, while applied directly to the skin, solely colors the outermost layer of the skin.

In general, henna lasts anywhere from 7-10 days on the skin and 3-5 weeks on the brows.*
To maintain the colour, touch-ups are recommended in 4 to 5 weeks.*

*This differs from person to person.

After care

  1. Do not wet them straight after the treatment. Keep them dry up to 24 hours.
  2. Avoid oil/ oil-based makeup/makeup remover.
  3. Avoid rubbing or scrubbing your brows while washing face.

Before care

  1. No oil or makeup on your brows.
  2. Gentle scrub before applying tint to get rid of any oil or dead skin. This will help tint to work better and gives an even blend of color throughout your brows.

I’ve recently starting seeing Ras & I am obsessed with the results I get. The shape is perfect & the colour perfectly compliments my skin tone. The whole vibe of the salon is relaxing and it really allows you to just stop & take some time out. I used to travel an hour each way to get my brows done, but SO glad I’ve found this amazing local gem. 10/10 recommend Sami’s Brow & Lashes.
