HD Brows with Face Facts

Hello my dears!!
I am carrying on my reviews of my beauty treats :)

On Saturday the 11/2/12 I had a very important date, a date with amazing brows!

I have been hearing good things about HD Brows for a while now.
I have for a long time plucked my eyebrows into skinny submission for which no amount of eyebrow pencil seemed to improve so the thought of thicker eyebrows appealed to me.
Hence I decided to give these brows a go!

After checking the HD Brows website for a salon in my area that I could get this done at I settled on Face Facts  I  liked the website and when I called to have a quick chat about the treatment the girl I spoke to couldn't have been more helpful in explaining what I needed to do prior to my brows being HD'd which basically consisted of not plucking them and making sure I put the patch test on before I came in for the treatment.

So five long weeks later my now scruffy and overgrown eyebrows and I went to Face Facts to have ourselves "blinged out" as my HD Brow technician Gemma called it!


The salon is right at the foot of Lincolns famous Steep Hill....

I love how tucked out of the way it was, it made it seem very like one of those salons that you have to be "in the know" about to go to without having a snobbish feel to it. Anyway on to the treatment....

HD Brows consists of a seven step process involves among other things Tinting, Waxing, Plucking, Threading and Trimming.

 The finished result after trimming, soothing, mineral make up application and the use of the HD Brow palette in Vamp to fill in the gaps.

I completely love my new brows I feel like they frame my face and make my eyes much more striking!
I even invested in my own HD Brow palette in vamp to keep up the look at home.

Gemma my technician has been doing this for three years now I had a quick chat with her after she had  finished with me to talk about the preconceptions people have about HD Brows.

She says one of the most asked questions she has is "will it look like a scouse brow?" in fact she says she actually has people bringing in pictures just to show her what they don't want them to look like!

So to clear things up once and for all HD Brows are assessed on you own brow needs for your face shape and hair colour they are there to enhance and not overpower.
 Most of all they are meant to make you feel well presented and confident in yourself.

My treatment cost £30 and should last for about four weeks I am more than happy to pay this price as I feel the end results are well worth it.

I found Gemma friendly and enthusiastic about her job which made treatment fly by and really put me at ease, but don't just take my word for it pop in to Face Facts and see what they have to offer I think you will be pleasantly surprised.

Have you already had HD Brows? What did you think? Please leave a comment I would love to hear your thoughts!

Much Love
