Permanent Brows

The better option for permanent brows over microblading

Denver’s choice for natural, long-lasting brows

Permanent makeup for the eyebrows is a great way to enhance and balance the natural brows, as well as save time and money every day.

Every custom brow tattoo appointment begins with a thorough consultation to discuss your goals. Shaping and styling are custom to each client’s needs, desires, and skin type. Read on below to learn more about the variety of permanent brow options.

Nano Brows

The less-painful, longer-lasting alternative to microblading

Nano brows are the most advanced style in permanent makeup for your brows. The process involves a hair stroke tattooing technique that creates the look of realistic eyebrows that mimic natural hair

This is best suited for clients looking to build a fuller eyebrow shape and want a natural-looking result that can be added to with makeup but does not feel overdone without it. This style is ideal for normal/dry skin but can also be done on combination and oily skin types on a case-by-case basis. 

  • Result: Hyper-realistic, natural brow hairs

  • Ideal for: Normal to dry skin

  • Technique: Machine-created fine hair strokes

  • Healing Time: 10-14 days

  • Longevity: 1.5-3 years with touch-ups

Powder Brows

This style is best known for its ability to replace daily eyebrow makeup, giving you soft, natural-looking brows with a subtle, powdered finish. Imagine waking up with your brows ready to go every day!

Powder brows are ideal for any candidate or skin type, especially those with oily skin or who want a more filled-in, defined look. This technique uses pixelated shading to create a soft gradient effect, with lighter fronts and more definition through the arch and tail — perfect for achieving a polished yet natural appearance.

  • Result: Soft, filled-in makeup look

  • Ideal for: All skin types (including oily skin)

  • Technique: Machine shading with a soft, powdery finish

  • Healing Time: 10-14 days

  • Longevity: 2-3 years with touch-ups

Combination Brows

Just like they sound — a blend of both nano hairstrokes and powder shading. This style combines the natural look of fine hair strokes in the front with soft shading through the arch and tail for added density.

Combination Brows are the perfect option if you want the best of both worlds — a natural appearance with a little extra definition. Combo brows are ideal for most skin types and a great choice if hairstrokes alone don’t provide enough coverage but powder brows feel too bold.

  • Result: Soft hair strokes in the front with more definition through the arch and tail

  • Ideal for: Normal to combination skin types

  • Technique: Nano hair strokes + powder shading

  • Healing Time: 10-14 days

  • Longevity: 2-3 years with touch-ups
