- IRON OXIDE RED - neutralised.

This is a classic example of something I see almost every day in the studio.

And before anything else, these brows are not my work, but I’m also not here to tell you the original artist did anything wrong.

This is pigmentology.

A few years ago, particularly during the height of microblading, iron oxide-based pigments were widely used and often the preferred choice. But pigment changes over time. As the colour fades and different components of the pigment break down at different rates, some brows can be left behind looking warm, salmon, pink or red.

That doesn’t automatically mean the tattoo was done badly.

It means we need to understand what is sitting in the skin now and decide what to do with it.

And the good news? You do not have to walk around with red or salmon brows.

You also don’t necessarily need to keep adding more tattoo over the top.

Depending on what I see in the skin, we can look at neutralising the existing colour, lightening/removing the old pigment, or creating a plan to get your brows back to a colour you feel comfortable with.

There is no judgement in my studio.

I see so many women walking around with brows like these, probably thinking there’s nothing they can do about them and every time I see them, I just want to say:

I can help. šŸ¤Ž

Old brow tattoo? Red, salmon, grey or an unwanted colour?

Send me a photo and we can work out the best way forward.

-FOXY LINER- this absolutely stunning eyeliner is hot business at the moment. Here’s a photo of what it looks like fresh and healed.

Soft, sultry, and so unreal.

Using only the best from Hanafy Pigments New Zealand

Super proud of these. It takes a lot of hard work to perfect a technique like this. I’m always learning and growing, but still look at this set and absolutely love it ā¤ļøšŸ¤£.

Always inspired by Pro Brows by Nicole Brown who taught me everything eyeliner related. I’ll be back up to mastery on for sure to do some more training very soon! šŸ˜†šŸ˜†šŸ™ˆšŸ™ˆā¤ļøā¤ļø

- it’s been a hot minute- BUT IM BACK. A few days holidays with my babies. It’s always a blessing. I feel utterly refreshed and ready to smash the Next few weeks.

If you’re thinking about brow removal. Book in for a consultation. It’s not as scary as you might think. And results like this are achievable with patience. (Although this result was only after 1 session!!!)

DM or email me if you want to discuss your options.

- Shaking pigments- it’s all part of the job.
I don’t know what you think I was doing…

- I GET ASKED THIS ALL THE TIME-
Does lip blush hurt? Does eyebrow tattooing hurt? Absolutely not with the correct numbing used, and correct technique, I’m often waking you from your slumberland, without you realising we are finished….

This coupled with the Alpine Environment, birds singing outside and chilled country music- it’s the recipe for the most relaxed appointment you’ll ever have.

BOOK NOW.

- CHOOSING YOUR ARTIST CAN BE HARD-

Here is one of my values I do not compromise in my business:

INTEGRITY.

I will be doing a series of posts based on the values I stand by in my business.

Swipe through to get a feel for how I treat my wonderful clients- and funnily enough, they all thank me for it in the end ā¤ļø.

It’s all part of building trust, and knowing what’s ethically right to do, vs what you want.

You guys don’t understand the science behind it and that’s ok, it’s not your job to know…. But we do, and it’s our job to keep you on the right path with making the best decisions when it comes to cosmetic tattooing/ and removal/ correction work.

thank you for looking

- After a journey of removal and redo- My beautiful client is so thrilled with her softer, yet still look shaped and structured brows.

My client loves her brows to look ā€œdoneā€, we discussed darker is not always better especially as she has naturally blonde brows and so we wanted lowest maintenance possible.

What do you guys think? I’m OBSESSED! And how incredibly blue are her eyes! So stunning.

As always thank you for trusting the process and allowing me to create some magic Kimberley Blakemore

- BROW REMOVAL - immediate shift from inorganic Red to a soft taupe colour whilst it fades.

PSA: if you guys have EVER had your brows tattooed even if you think they are faded please check with me before booking in for new brows. I am very picky about what I will cover up / remove first.

Thank you for looking. šŸ‘€

SOUNDS CHEAP? IT PROBABLY IS, BABE. šŸ‘€

I haven’t increased my prices since 2023. Yep, you heard me right.

And for a PMU artist with my level of experience, training and skill, in Australia, the UK or the States, you could expect to pay upwards of $1,500 PER SERVICE. (In their own currency NOT converted to NZD, converted it’s around $3000NZD!!!!)

I genuinely value every single one of my clients — but lately I’ve had a couple of emergency removals come through my door after initially consulting with me, choosing to go somewhere cheaper example ($250)… and then coming back to have the work removed.

And my door will ALWAYS be open. ā¤ļø

But please, think carefully about who you trust with your face.

If you can’t afford the artist you really want right now, wait. Save. Be patient.

I’m not going anywhere. šŸ‘€

Because paying once for quality is a whole lot cheaper than paying for the tattoo, paying for removal… and then paying all over again to have it done properly.

With peace & love,

Your PMU correction specialist āœŒļøā¤ļø
