Frequently Asked Questions

At Glowtique, we understand the importance of a well-designed shape that complements your unique facial features.

Our experienced artists will assess your facial structure, your current brow's shape, colour and hair pattern before recommending suitable treatment techniques and creating a customised shape that suits you.

You will see the shape design before the treatment and have input throughout the process.

We use advanced techniques and custom-mix colours to match your natural hair colour and skin undertone.

Unlike traditional microblading our colours will not change to blue or grey over time.

If you're concerned about existing old tattoos, we offer correction and cover-up services. However, please note that complete removal may require laser treatment.

Traditional microblading can be painful and requires numbing cream. That's why clients are so surprised to learn that our advanced techniques are so unique and so gentle that discomfort is minimal and numbing cream is NOT required.

Our clients often relax and even fall asleep during the treatment.

Our semi-permanent cosmetic tattoos last up to two years for brows, more than three years for lips, and more than five years for eyeliner.

With the correct technique, the colour will fade lighter over time without changing to blue or grey (as can sometimes happen with traditional microblading).

We offer various techniques, including:

• Nano-feathering: fine, super-gentle application that is more accurate and has faster healing than traditional microblading;
• Ombre: colour graduation from light to dark;
• Powder Brows: fine dotted application that appears like powder makeup; and
• Combination Brows: a mixture of the above.

Our experienced aesthetic technicians will assess your facial features, current eyebrows and lifestyle to recommend the most suitable technique for you.

Always ensure your technician is qualified and licensed by the local Council, with valid licenses for compliant infection control measures.

Unfortunately we've often had to correct the poor work done elsewhere. Our experience has made us experts in correction and removal.

While it can be challenging to correct old mistakes our experience allows us to take on the trickiest cases to minimise problems.

Culturally, some skin tones need to be neutralised prior to treatment. This is to ensure final, lasting colour that's true to your chosen tone.

If you have never had a semi-permanent treatment before and you are unhappy with your final result, we'll happily adjust the colour or shape at no extra cost.

Semi-permanent makeup is difficult to remove or correct so it can be risky choosing cheap offers where operators are inexperienced or cutting corners to get people through as fast as possible. Many technicians only have a single trending 'look' that they apply to everyone regardless of individual facial structure.

It's important to choose a well-trained and highly experienced technician to avoid disappointing results.

Semi-permanent makeup is difficult to remove or correct so it can be risky choosing cheap offers where operators are new/inexperienced or cutting corners to get people through as fast as possible.

Bad results can lead to stress, wasted time and money on laser removal, and months of bad-looking brows or lips. It's crucial to get it right the first time.

Worst-case it can lead to infection and permanent scarring. Glowtique takes your health and safety seriously by taking the time to ensure excellence in hygiene and infection control practices.
