What’s the Difference Between Brow Tinting and Microblading?
Brow tinting is a simple, quick way to enhance the color and shape of your eyebrows using a semi-permanent dye. It works by darkening your natural brow hairs to create a fuller, more defined look, and it lasts up to 6 weeks, fading naturally over time. Microblading is a more permanent option that lasts 1 to 3 years. It involves creating tiny, hair-like strokes with a cosmetic tattoo to give your brows long-lasting definition.
Who Is Eyebrow Tinting Best For?
Eyebrow tinting is a smart, low-maintenance solution for anyone who wants fuller, more defined brows without relying on daily makeup.
Eyebrow tinting may be right for you if you:
- Have naturally light or blonde eyebrows
- Want to define patchy or thinning brows
- Need a low-maintenance brow routine
- Have gray hairs in your brows you’d like to blend
- Recently had your brows shaped and want them to pop
- Are active and want sweat-proof, smudge-proof color
Not sure if it’s right for you? Our specialists will assess your brows and recommend the best shade and technique.

Is Eyebrow Tint Safe for Sensitive Skin?
Eyebrow tinting can be safe for sensitive skin. We use brow-safe tinting formulas that are free from ammonia and harsh chemicals, so they’re gentle on your skin while still delivering beautiful, long-lasting results. For first-time clients with sensitive skin, we take extra care by performing a patch test before your appointment. This helps us ensure there’s no reaction to the tinting formula and that your skin can handle the treatment.
How Often Is Eyebrow Tinting Needed?
You should get your eyebrows tinted every 4 to 6 weeks to keep them looking consistent and defined. Over time, the tint naturally fades as your hair grows and your skin sheds, so getting regular touch-ups ensures your brows stay bold and polished. This timing also lets us adjust the tint to match any changes in your style or preferences, leaving you with brows that always look fresh and perfectly suited to your face.
How Soon Can You Tint Brows After Shaping?
You can tint your brows the same day as shaping, as long as the skin isn’t broken or irritated. We typically suggest doing the tint first and tweezing or waxing after. This helps avoid skin sensitivity and gives us a clear view of your natural brow color for better results.
How Do You Choose the Right Brow Tint for Your Hair Color?
Choosing the right tint is about more than just matching your hair. It’s about enhancing your features and creating harmony with your skin tone and eye color. Our estheticians consider all of these elements before recommending a shade.
For blondes or redheads, we may use light or medium brown tints, while brunettes often look best with dark brown or black. For those with gray hair, a soft taupe or ash brown might be best. During your consultation, we’ll help you find the most flattering hue for a natural yet striking effect.
What Is the Process for Eyebrow Tinting?
Our eyebrow tinting process is fast, gentle, and totally customizable:
- Cleanse the brows: Remove makeup, oil, and impurities
- Shape consultation: Decide on any shaping or cleanup before tinting
- Color selection: Choose a shade that complements your features
- Tint application: Carefully apply dye to brow hairs with a brush
- Processing: Let the tint sit for 5 to 10 minutes
- Clean and condition: Remove excess tint and apply a soothing balm
What Should You Avoid After Getting Brows Tinted?
For the first 24 to 48 hours, we recommend avoiding oil-based cleansers and makeup removers. These can strip the tint and cause fading. Try not to touch your brows excessively or scrub the area. Sweat, steam, and direct sun exposure can also break down the tint faster, so avoid saunas, intense workouts, or tanning beds during this period.
In addition, it’s smart to skip applying brow makeup during this window. Even products labeled as “gentle” can interfere with the tint’s settling process. You’ll also want to steer clear of exfoliating treatments, chemical peels, or retinol-based products that may contact the brow area. Letting your tint cure properly during these first couple of days ensures longer-lasting, vibrant results.
Remember: those first 48 hours are crucial. By following these guidelines, you’ll be sure to get the results you want for as long as promised.
Will Your Brow Tint Fade Evenly?
As the dye gradually washes out, the tint will fade subtly without leaving harsh lines or patchiness. To support even fading, follow aftercare instructions closely. Avoid harsh exfoliants or frequent washing around the brows. Regular maintenance every 4 to 6 weeks keeps your look fresh and uniform.
Keep in mind that the way your brow tint fades also depends on your skin type, lifestyle, and how often you expose your face to sunlight or harsh cleansers. People with oilier skin may notice their tint fades a bit faster, while dry or combination skin types tend to hold onto the color longer. Gentle skincare and avoiding over-washing help maintain balance and prolong the natural-looking fade.
