Like many people, I plucked my eyebrows to death in the 90's and they've never been the same since. I have been religiously filling them in every day, so when I was given the opportunity to try out eyebrow embroidery at SleekBrow, I jumped at the chance.
I was slightly nervous as I've never had anything "semipermanent" done before and wasn't exactly sure what I should be asking for. But from the minute I walked through the door, I was reassured by the team's friendly, knowledgeable and confident approach. It started with a 30-minute consultation, discussing what I knew I didn't want (since all I really knew was that I wanted it to look quite natural!). The team drew an outline and filled it in with makeup to replicate a finished look that I was happy with. By this stage, I was relaxed and confident to go with anything they suggested.
I was then taken upstairs to the treatment room and had the luxury of lying down and napping for approximately 90 minutes during the treatment. The treatment itself didn't hurt at all. At the end, it felt slightly sore, but this feeling went very quickly. Throughout the process I was asked how it felt and whether I was okay.
