Eyebrow Tattooing
Melbourne

Eyebrow tattooing or cosmetic tattooing, is a semi-permanent makeup procedure designed to enhance the appearance of eyebrows.

During the process, we use a specialised tool to deposit pigment into the skin in a series of fine, hair-like strokes, mimicking the natural pattern of eyebrow hairs.

The procedure begins with a consultation to determine your desired shape, colour, and thickness of you brows.

Eyebrow tattooing is suitable for individuals with sparse, overplucked, or uneven eyebrows, as well as those seeking to define their brows or cover scars.

The result is a natural-looking, fuller eyebrow appearance that can last anywhere from one to three years, depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare.

Overall, eyebrow tattooing offers a convenient solution for achieving well-defined, symmetrical eyebrows without the need for daily makeup application.

Ombre Brows

Achieve flawless brows using our Ombre Brows technique. Bid farewell to the time-consuming routine of pomade and concealer application each day. Our approach involves creating a softer/lighter shading technique at the bulbs of the brow near the nose bridge and a more defined body/tail of the brow for added prominence.

Embrace a natural appearance with a gentle gradient at the front and deeper tones towards the tails. Say goodbye to pomade and pencils forever! Our skilled professionals collaborate with your natural brow shape, preserving its growth while subtly enhancing its perfection. Avoid excessive tattooing and allow your natural brow foundation to shine through!

We prioritise your satisfaction through our gradual approach, avoiding the risk of overly thick and dark eyebrows. By taking measured steps, we ensure precision without room for error. It's always simpler to add to your tattoo later on at the touch up than to take off.

Combination Brows

At With Aime we use a precise hand tool to microblading hair-like strokes, meticulously filling in sparse areas and defining the brow shape. This technique adds depth and dimension to the brows, mimicking the appearance of natural hair for a realistic effect.

Next, we begin the shading process begins, where soft layers of pigment are delicately applied to the brows, gradually building up intensity from the base to the tail. This shading technique adds density and depth, creating a polished finish that complements the microbladed strokes and adds dimension to the overall look.

The result? Brows that strike the perfect balance between defined and soft, with a natural gradient effect that transitions seamlessly from the inner to outer brow. Whether you desire a subtle enhancement or a more dramatic transformation, Combination Brows offers versatility to suit your individual style.

Frequently asked questions

EYEBROW TATTOO

Cosmetic eyebrow tattooing involves a full consultation, tattoo & 1-month touch-up visit. This is a two-part process, with an additional touch-up tattoo being required after a month to fill in and perfect any areas where the pigment may have faded. It must be completed within 6-weeks post initial treatment, otherwise, additional charges will apply. Prior to the procedure, a pre-numb anaesthetic cream is applied to the area to assist with the numbing of the area. Throughout the process, gel anaesthetic is also applied to reduce any irritation and inflammation that may occur. Depending on how you follow the aftercare recommendations, along with your skin type and lifestyle choices, the tattoo will last between 1-3 years.

It is recommended that you maintain your eyebrow tattoo with yearly touch-ups. Please remember that a cosmetic brow tattoo will still require waxing/ plucking maintenance. If you have blonde hair and have them tattooed darker than your natural brow hair colour, you will also need to continue getting them tinted or hennaed.

This information is provided to ensure that there is minimal bleeding during the tattooing procedure. Failure to follow the below instructions can result in poor healed results.

It is advised that you don't wax, thread or pluck your eyebrows for at least ONE week before your appointment.
Do not consume any caffeine or alcohol the day of your appointment. This includes coffee, energy drinks, pre-work out, coca cola and tea. Do not take fish oils & vitamin E oils for a week before your treatment. Caffeine, alcohol & fish oils act as a blood thinner, causing you to potentially bleed during the process. This will stop the cosmetic tattoo pigment from holding in the skin.
Blood thinning medication should be discussed with a doctor prior to your appointment. It will need to be stopped 1 day prior to your appointment, as you will bleed more during the tattoo process!
You won't be able to heavily exercise (cause the face to sweat), use a sauna, swim or tan for ONE week.
You can bring in reference pictures of eyebrows.
Facials & skin peels should be avoided for one week before tattooing.
Botox should be done 1 month before or 2 weeks after your brow tattoo appointment.
Using a high Vitamin A, Retin-A or Tretinoin, this will need to be discontinued at least 2 weeks prior to your appointment.

Following the aftercare instructions is extremely important in order to ensure good retention of colour during the healing process. Aftercare accounts for over 60% of the healed results.
Apply any medicated cream or healing balm as recommended by your technician. Aftercare cream can be purchased at your appointment for $30.
Avoid getting the area wet for up to 10 days, which includes keeping your face dry during a shower. Use a damp face cloth or face wipe to clean your face.
Use a damp cotton pad to gently wipe the area for the first two days. This will reduce the build up of lymph fluid as the brows heal and reduce the chances of scabbing.
Don’t put makeup on your brows or forehead for at least 10 days. This is because the tattoo is a healing & open wound. Applying makeup to the brows will increase the chance of infection.
Don’t pick at scabs, tug, or itch the eyebrow area. Again, this will increase the chance of infection and possibly cause skin damage and scarring.
Avoid saunas, swimming, and excessive sweating until the area is completely healed, which may take up to two weeks.
Keep your hair away from your brows. Do not touch your brows with bare hands when they have been freshly done. Simple hygiene!
Long Term Aftercare: Apply SPF-50 daily to the healed brow. Sun exposure over a prolonged period of time will fade the tattoo. Do not use strong chemical acids/ peels (salicylic, glycolic, lactic acids),IPL or laser on the healed cosmetic tattoo, as these will fade the tattoo over time.

Your brows will appear a lot darker and more intense than what they will look like once healed. Over the first few days, they will be at their darkest. They might scab and flake, this is completely normal. While they heal, this will fade to reveal a much lighter colour. Please keep in mind that everyone’s skin will heal differently!

The true colour of the tattoo will not be revealed until after 4 weeks. The touch up is then completed at 4-6 weeks to perfect any areas that need some extra attention.

Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding are unable to get this treatment.
Diabetics should seek a doctor’s recommendation beforehand. This is because the healing will take longer, with a higher risk of infection possible.
Those on blood-thinning medication should not receive this treatment. This includes aspirin, treatment of high blood pressure, pain relief (Ibuprofen), Niacin, Vitamin E, Advil. Please receive advice from your doctor before discontinuing any medication.
If you suffer from acne, open wounds on the face, or other infections on the brows, it is strongly advised to not get this treatment done. This is because the chance of spreading the infection is higher in these clients.
Those with oily skin are also advised that their Feather Touch Brows may not last as long as other clients, due to the nature of their skin rejecting the pigment. This would mean that more regular touch-ups would be required. Alternatively, Ombré or Combination Brows has better healed results for oily skin types.
If you suffer from keloid scarring, it is strongly recommended that you don't receive Feather Touch Brows. There is the possibility of doing a test patch during a consultation in order to assess your healing if this applies to you. Alternatively, Ombré Brows can be done as this cosmetic tattoo is less damaging to the skin and has a quicker healing time.
If you have taken Accutane in the past year you are unable to get this treatment.
Those who are allergic to lidocaine, prilocaine, benzocaine, tetracaine or epinephrine will need a doctor’s note. You will need to supply your own numbing cream.
Anyone who has any serious medical conditions will require a doctor’s note.
