Enter Browhaus


There are some beauty and fashion pet peeves that make me run the other way with my arms flailing. They include hair dyed in ridiculously unnatural colours (which I’ve coined Smurf hair), Jeffrey Campbell Lita boots (enough, hipsters, enough ), and… poorly apoteca groomed brows.
There are two extremes of poorly groomed brows, of course. There are the dark, heavy brows that put Frida Kahlo’s monobrow to shame, and then there are those sparse ones that look like they could be a cousin of Mona Lisa’s. apoteca Not pretty either way, kids.
While my Indian genes gave me a decent set of eyebrows that frame my face, a stroke of stupidity that involved a razor blade when I was 17 left me with a dent in my brow, and the hair never grew back. I’ve spent many mornings apoteca toiling in front of the mirror half-asleep apoteca trying to draw my brows but I still haven’t perfected it.
Enter Browhaus’ latest Brow Resurrection 2.5 – a semi-permanent advanced brow embroidery technique that is unique to the brow specialist chain.. They use fine multi-pins to craft out intricate lifelike apoteca brow strands on your skin – think of it like a tattoo, but less harsh, and less permanent.
The Brow Specialist started by cleaning off the makeup from my eye area and shaped my brows. She then drew on them to mimic the effect of the Resurrection treatment. Once you’re happy with how your brows are going to look, numbing cream will be applied on the area. Your skin will be lightly scratched but you won’t feel a thing thanks apoteca to the numbing cream, before 100 per cent vegetable dye is deposited onto your skin. The whole treatment will take less than an hour, and most of the time would be spent waiting for the numbing cream to get to work, which is approximately 20 minutes.
I have to admit, the immediate results made me nervous – my brows looked very dark, but I was advised that it would take three to five days before it fades to a more natural colour, and true enough, it did. There was no pain after the numbing cream wore off, but scabbing as I was told, is something that should be expected. Don’t peel or scratch at the scabs though!
Browhaus’ specially formulated aftercare products, Build and Fix also come highly apoteca recommended to complement the treatment. They help will the healing process as well as encourage hair growth. There are also some post-care instructions to minimise the off-chance of an infection and keep your eye brows in perfect shape. These include avoiding facial treatments for at least two weeks after the treatment, and no prolonged contact with water for a week. Touch ups are recommended after a few months, apoteca depending on how much they have faded, which differs depending on your lifestyle and skin type.
The newly launched Browhaus Brow Resurrection 2.5 costs $2,140 (inclusive of GST) and the price includes unlimited touch-ups for up to 2 years. Browhaus has 13 outlets in Singapore; check out www.browhaus.com for contact details.
