Sophia Brow House - Creative Brows Embroidery

Advertisment - Personal recommendation

I believe a lot of ladies out there will encounter the same problem like me. Wake up late for an appointment, rushing for time, yet I can't get a prefect brows after so many attempts. To save me from the embarrassment of funny looking brows, I had to snip my fringe away just to cover it.

Cutting my fringe away definitely is not a permanent solution to my problem, yet it is causing me even more inconvenient. I'm facing the issue of having my fringe poking into my eyes whenever it get longer, not only that, I can see an increase of acne appeared my forehead.

I'm so glad that I found a solution to the root cause for this issue, that is brow embroidery. Let me clarified this first, brows embroidery is NOT tattoo, tattooing involves injecting ink into your skin. The pigments will migrate deeper into your skin over time, therefore, the effect is permanent. The colour of tattoo will change over time, turning into awful looking greenish brows. I'm very sure that everyone knows what I trying to describe & seen many aunties or even some young ladies with such greenish brows on road.

Brow embroidery involves penetrating of colour into just the top layer of the skin. The beautician will customize your brows and the arch to suit your face shape, and add colour to your brows. Unlike tattooing, brow embroidery is not permanent, it will eventually fades away after about a year or two, depending on individual skin condition.

After much research, I found Sophia Brow House, my beautician is Apple, a lady with 20years of experience in beauty salon services that station at the Marine Parade branch. She a very nice lady that take the trouble to explain to me the different between brow embroidery & the newest generation of brow embroidery which is known as Creative brow embroidery. Creative brow embroidery done by adding colour to your brows using fine strokes giving you a very nature looking finishing which looked so much closest to our brow hair. No doubt, Creative brow embroidery is my choice after her detailed explanation.

♥As my brows just done with the touch-up today, the colour is still very dark, but you can clearly see the prefect strokes on my brows, after a week, it will be as nature looking as my brow's hair

She start off by drafting out the brow shape first, this is to determine the exact shape to be embroidered later. After drawing, Apple applied the anaesthetic cream to my brows area for at least 15minutes, that is to minimum the pain level to the lowest during the process.

Apple show me that the blade she used was a brand new piece, she actually removed it from the sealed packaging in front of me before the process. They only use brand new blade for every walk-in customers, so no worry for me on hygiene issue.

The process was a simple one, everything was completed close to an hour time. During the process, a little bleeding might occurred, like I say is due to individual skin condition. As it get closer to finishing, the anaesthetic effect start to go off, so you might feel a little pinching pain around the brow area, but don't worry, you can stop your beautician at time to apply more anaesthetic cream for you, but I'm very sure even without the additional cream, the pain is still bearable.

Of course I will share all the good stuff with people, the first person I would like to share with is my sister. She had her embroidery at Sophia Brow House too, both of us are really very happy will the brows embroidered by Apple. Thanks to Apple, she made our daily life so much more convenient, we can basically step out of or house without an make-up on our face.

Today we went for our first touch-up, first touch up is necessary after your very initial embroidery, this is to ensure that the colour is more lasting. In any event of a little "imperfection" after your first visit due to your "itchy hand", please be remembered, peeling off the skins while healing is totally not advisable, there a lot if incident that colour will drop off with the dead skin during peeling, it the same applied theory like tattooing.

For people who are interested in Creative Brow Embroidery, do take my recommendation into your consideration, brows is very important to everyone, your brow's shape helps to determined a lot on your overall appearance, even though it not a permanent thing, but can you imagine that if any wrong decision you made, you going to live with your ugly brows for the next 2 years at least, I seriously cannot imagine how terrible that can be.
