TRESSELIX/BROW

Tresselix Brow Restoration Serum is a revolutionary product that goes beyond conventional eyebrow growth solutions. With a unique formulation enriched with potent ingredients, Tresselix aims to not just enhance eyebrow growth but also promote the health and strength of the delicate hair proteins that make up your eyebrows.

One of the key factors that set Tresselix apart is its focus on supporting compromised cysteine disulfide bonds in hair proteins. These bonds are essential for maintaining the structure and integrity of hair strands, including eyebrow hairs. By incorporating ingredients like Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, Panthenol, Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1, Sodium Hyaluronate, and 1-Copper Tripeptide, Tresselix works to nourish, hydrate, and strengthen your eyebrow hairs from within.

Myristoyl Pentapeptide-17, known for its ability to support hair follicle health, may indirectly benefit the maintenance of cysteine disulfide bonds. Panthenol and Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 contribute to hair elasticity and strength, potentially aiding in the preservation of protein structure. Sodium Hyaluronate and 1-Copper Tripeptide further enhance the serum’s ability to hydrate, condition, and promote hair growth, essential for maintaining healthy eyebrows.

While Tresselix Brow Restoration Serum offers a promising blend of ingredients to support eyebrow health and growth, it’s important to note that targeted treatments designed specifically for addressing protein damage may be more effective in repairing compromised cysteine disulfide bonds directly. However, incorporating Tresselix into your daily eyebrow care routine can complement these treatments and contribute to overall hair health.

With its carefully curated ingredients and focus on nurturing hair proteins, Tresselix Brow Restoration Serum stands out as a comprehensive solution for anyone looking to enhance their eyebrow growth and maintain strong, healthy eyebrows.

TRESSELIX SERUM: IV THERAPY FOR YOUR BROWS

THERAPY WAND INTRODUCING A WHOLE NEW BROW LIFE-LINE

TRESSELIX THERAPY WAND, DEFIBRILLATING BROWS BACK TO LIFE

The Tresselix Therapy Wand offers a cutting-edge solution for individuals looking to improve the health and appearance of their eyebrows. With features such as micro vibration, red light therapy (660nm), hot compress, and EMS microcurrent stimulation, this device is designed to stimulate growth, reduce sparse areas, and enhance thickness for fuller and more defined eyebrows. When used in conjunction with the potent brow restoration serum, the Tresselix Therapy Wand provides a comprehensive approach to eyebrow care, promoting optimal results and elevating the overall health of the eyebrows.

One of the standout features of the Tresselix Therapy Wand is its utilization of LED photorejuvenation, specifically red light therapy at 660nm. This technology is known for its ability to stimulate hair follicles, increase blood flow to the area, and promote hair growth. By incorporating red light therapy into its design, the Tresselix Therapy Wand effectively targets the root cause of sparse eyebrows, encouraging the growth of new, healthy hair for a fuller and more vibrant look.

In addition to red light therapy, the Tresselix Therapy Wand harnesses the power of high-frequency vibration to promote the introduction of serum into the skin. This feature ensures that the potent brow restoration serum is evenly distributed and absorbed by the skin, maximizing its effectiveness in nourishing the hair follicles and promoting eyebrow growth. The combination of micro vibration and serum application creates an ideal environment for hair regeneration, helping individuals achieve thicker and more luscious eyebrows over time.

Furthermore, the Tresselix Therapy Wand incorporates a hot compress function that not only soothes the skin but also promotes the absorption of the serum. The gentle heat generated by the device helps to open up the pores, allowing the serum to penetrate deeply into the skin and deliver essential nutrients to the hair follicles. This process enhances the efficacy of the serum, ensuring that the eyebrows receive the nourishment they need to thrive and flourish.

Another key benefit of the Tresselix Therapy Wand is its EMS microcurrent stimulation, which works to make the skin firmer and more toned. By applying microcurrents to the skin, the device helps improve circulation, increase collagen production, and enhance the overall health of the skin around the eyebrows. This feature not only contributes to a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance but also creates a supportive environment for optimal hair growth, resulting in healthier and more defined eyebrows.

UNDERSTANDING HAIR GROWTH AND COLOR

Understanding hair, its growth, and what happens when we remove, dye, or tint will help you understand how to approach eyebrows correctly.

Most people want full eyebrows, just like on their scalp. But while all hair goes through the same cycles, the eyebrow hairs have different timings. There are also way more hair follicles on the scalp compared to the eyebrow area.

To further understand hair, let’s first look at hair anatomy.

Hair has two main parts; the hair follicle, which lies under the skin and the roots, and the hair shaft, which is the hair you can see above the skin.

The follicle further has two main parts; the bulb and the papilla (refer to the image above). The hair bulb lies at the base of the hair, and it contains living cells that grow the hair shaft. All around it are blood vessels that feed the cells with blood and nutrients that hair needs to grow.

The hair shaft consists of a small blood vessel that supplies the hair with blood flow. Thus, the hair receives all the vital nutrients it needs to remain healthy. It is also surrounded by sebum, which naturally lubricates the hair.

In addition to that, our hair is made of three layers which are;

• Medulla: This is the center of the hair structure and determines the overall condition of our hair.

• Cortex: This is the layer that surrounds the medulla and serves as the primary source of our hair’s growth.

• Cuticle: This is the outermost and most essential layer of our hair because it serves the purpose of giving hair its shine and protecting it from UV light.

• Hair growth occurs in phases; usually, different hair strands are in different phases at any given time. This ensures continuity such that, naturally, there is no time you lose all hair at the same time.

Phase 1. Anagen

This is the growth phase, where the hair follicle is nourished to grow new hair. Each hair spends years in this phase. The hair in the head takes two to seven years, while the brows and lashes spend one or two months in this phase.

Phase 2. Catagen

Also known as the transitional phase, this happens over a few weeks. The nourishing stops, and the follicle shrinks.

Phase 3. Telogen

This is known as the resting phase. With no nourishment, the hair eventually dies and falls out, which happens over months. So new hair begins to grow at the anagen phase, while the older hair is pushed out. Only a few eyebrow hairs are lost in a day compared to the 50 to 100 strands lost on the scalp.

It is essential to note that hair growth rate varies in different people because it is influenced by factors such as race, age, hormones, and even nutrition.

So, what about hair color?

Hair Color and Pigmentation

A pigment called melanin (same as skin melanin) is responsible for hair color in the hair cells. The pigment cells die with age, which is why older people have grey or white hair. When we dye hair, we usually replace the hair pigment with a different color from its natural one. That goes for brows as well.

There are two types of melanin pigment; Eumelanin which gives hair dark colors, and Pheomelanin, which is responsible for lighter colors such as brown and blond. Pheomelanin is orange and red, and we all have it regardless of our hair color.

The ratios of these two melanins determine the real color of your hair, meaning that the darker the hair, the darker pigments you have, and the lighter the hair, the lighter pigments you have, as shown in the chart below.

Pigments level chart

To determine your client’s hair level, which is simply how light or dark the hair is, you do a visual color assessment of the hair roots and ends as well as the eyebrows. For example, if the roots of your client’s hair are the lightest natural blond, then the hair level is 10, according to the chart.

Genetics also plays a huge role in the amount of melanin concentration in your hair. People with darker skin have more Eumelanin.

When you tint or dye hair, what’s typically happening is that you replace the natural melanin pigment with synthetic pigments in your desired color because the hair cuticles open, and out goes the natural hair pigment.

In a later chapter, we will look at hair dyeing and tinting, but for now, let’s look at hair removal since understanding this is crucial for perfect brows.

WAIVER AND RELEASE STATEMENT

A waiver and release statement will explain what exactly will happen during your appointment. If you are performing waxing, tinting, or extension services on the client, have it all on that form. The statement also releases you from liability and enforces that there will be no legal action against one another should things take a different turn. Both you and the client should have a space to sign the agreement on the form.

After you complete the appointments, keep these records electronically or using record cards. I am urging you to keep these documents not only for reference purposes when a client comes in for an appointment but also for legal reasons

MATERIALS AND TOOLS NEEDED FOR BROW SHAPING AND BROW TINTING/DYEING

Always ensure that you are thoroughly set up for the procedure before your client arrives. Your client should walk in to a neat, clean, and well-organized treatment room.

Cream developer, dye/tint (color of choice), Low temperature soft wax, pre-cut wax strips, Miscellar water/Tint remover, 4x4 gauze, 10 browbaton applicators, slanted tweezer, pointer tweezer, brow scissors, hybrid tint brush, brow pencils (shade of choice), eyebrow highlighters (shade of choice), highlighter brush, brow gel, eyebrow spool and hydrating eye mask.

THE EYEBROW HARMONY SHAPING METHOD (BROW MAPPING)

The Eyebrow Harmony Shaping Method is the process that helps you achieve balance, symmetry, harmony and guides you in shaping eyebrows evenly. As mentioned earlier in the introduction, eyebrows are the most important feature on your face. They give you your own frame of symmetry and symmetry translates to beauty through the human eye. It is always essential to use this method on each client to see their own frame of symmetry. This method specifically tailors to each client’s eyebrows based on their bone structure and their natural brow placement. Applying this method eliminates significant errors when discovering the correct eyebrow shape for the client.

So, when we think about eyebrow shaping, we should consider that no one’s eyebrows are the same. Also, do not think of your client’s brows as twins but as sisters. However, it is your job to make your client’s eyebrows as symmetrical as possible.

So, how does eyebrow harmony shaping methodwork?

In eyebrow harmony shaping method, you mark specific points on your client’s eyebrows; i.e where your client’s eyebrows should start, where the arch should be, and where the eyebrow should end.

Applying The Eyebrow Harmony Shaping Method

The aim is to find where the eyebrow should begin, where the arch should be placed, and where the eyebrow should end. Next, ask your client to look downwards for you to identify the natural contours of the eyes.

The Brow Harmony Shaping System!

STEP 1: Brow Start

Using your Just Everything pencil, rest your pencil above the middle of your nose, mark your first note. This is where your brow begins.

STEP 2: Arch

Then, angle the pencil across the eye and through the pupil, mark your note, this is your arch placement.

STEP 3: Brow End

Angle the pencil across the corner of your eye, mark your note, this is where your brow ends.

STEP 4: Brow Shaping

Draw a line connecting the note where your brow should start, then connecting to the note at the arch and finally connecting the arch to the note where your brow should end. Now, that you’ve connected your notes, you now have BROW HARMONY!

Anything outside these lines will need to be waxed so that you remain with a sharp natural shape. You can use waxing products of your choice.

We mostly use soft wax, but if your client has sensitive skin, you can go for hard wax.

WAXING

Personally, I prefer waxing. Why? Well, waxing lasts around 4 to 6 weeks. However, many will argue that the timeline may change because hair grows differently for everyone; regardless, I still prefer waxing. I also think waxing is better because it gives the eyebrows some rich edge, and since many of my clients want strong-shaped brows, waxing gives me just that!

STEP 1: Start by gently brushing the silicone brow brush in small, circular motions over the client’s eyebrows. This will help loosen any buildup or residue on the skin and hair.

STEP 2: Take your browbaton, dip it in the soft wax, and apply your wax on the top of one end of the eyebrow. Start from where the brow begins going in the direction toward the arch

STEP 3: Apply your strip, press firmly and remove the strip going against the direction of hair growth.

STEP 4: Take a clean browbaton, dip it into the soft wax and apply your wax from the arch to where the brow ends

STEP 5: Move to the other eyebrow and REPEAT the same steps! Please note that you should never wax over the same area twice when using soft wax. The skin potentially will lift. If your client has sensitive skin, use hard wax.

STEP 6: Work on the browline. Start from the beginning of the brow heading to the arch. Remember to get another brow baton for this step.

STEP 7: As we did with the other eyebrow, apply your strip, press firmly and remove the strip against the direction of hair growth

STEP 8: Next, take another brow baton and apply wax from the arch to where the brow ends

STEP 9: Apply your strip, press firmly and remove the strip against the direction of hair growth.

STEP 10: Finally, wax the center of the brow and remove with your wax strip.

STEP 11: Apply Tresselix brow serum, covering the entire eyebrow area in windshield wiper motions.

STEP 12: After applying the Tresselix Brow Restoration serum, use the Tresselix Therapy Wand for two minutes to boost absorption.

STEP 13: Brush one eyebrow to see exactly whats going on, then move to the other eyeborw to do the same.

STEP 14: Take your precision pointer tweezer and remove excess hair from the brow line.

STEP 15: Take your precision slanted tweezer and remove excess hair from the brow line.

BROW TINTING

Brow tinting is a chemical process that substitutes the natural pigments in hairs (eumelanin and pheomelanin) with synetheic pigments that the tint/dye contains. It involves the application of dye/tint on eyebrows and to make them appear fuller, thicker, and darker.

Cuticles Open

Color molecules penetrate through cuticles and sit at the outer layers of the cortex

THE PURE SCIENCE OF NICCKTOWNSEND BROW & LASH DYE

Niccktownsend Brow & Lash dye is a colorant created by niccktownsend for beauty industry professionals. The formula of this colorant and the method of its application are unparalleled in the beauty industry. Niccktownsend dye is a demipermanent dye that colors the hair and can stain.

Demi-permanent dyes have a lower pH level than permanent dyes and are far less damaging. Due to their small color molecules, they are able to go through the cuticles and still sit in the cortex and give long-lasting color; anywhere from 4-5 weeks in general.

Medula Cortex

What is pH level?

Please note that any chemical has two opposite side: Acidic or Alkaline

There is a special scale that has levels ranging from 0-14. This scale refers to how acidic or alkaline a substance is. The level of acidity or alkalinity is known as a substances pH level.

pH 0 = Battery Acid

pH 2 = Lemon Juice

pH 2.4 = Vinegar

pH 4.5 = Tomato

pH 5.5 = Clean Rain

pH 7 = Water

pH 8.5 = Eggs

pH 9 = Baking Soda

pH 10 = Hand Soap

pH 11.6 = Ammonia

pH 12.6 = Bleach

pH 13 = NaOH (Sodium hydroxide)

Every brow product, including tints, dyes and developers have their own pH level. Hair’s natural pH levels, when untouched, falls in the acidic range at around 4.5–5.5 and this is when it’s at its healthiest (the same as skin).

Eyebrow products that have acidic substances have a pH level that is less than 7. This means that this type of product will close your client’s cuticles. That will be a developer. On the other hand, pH levels that have greater pH of 7 are alkaline. That will your tint/dye. This will open your client’s hair cuticles and will allow the eyebrow dye/tint to penetrate as it should. So, the higher the number of pH, the deeper the color will penetrate.

Hair structure breakup

To determine how to effectively use niccktownend brow dye, lets’s examine the index of main ingredients it contains; The index of ingredients are listed in order from the most sizable percentages to the tiniest. In essence, whatever ingredient is first in the index has the greatest portion of the product to the least.

They come in 6 shades; Ginger, goldie, mahogany, graphite, ebony, and blue ebony.

P-Phenylenediamine(PPD)

An ingredient that is generally used in hair tints and dyes. PPD has potential toxicity however, its percentages in our dyes are creditably regulated. PPD is the component that can potentially cause an allergic reaction, which is why our protocol is to patch test every client who is introduced to the product. PPD is formulated in most dyes and is the component responsible for brown and black color bases and shades. PPD is oxidizing pigment. PPD has no color and requires oxygen for it to become a dye. PPD dyes need to be mixed with a developer.

PEG 40 Castor Oil

PEG 40 castor oil is used in our dye as a emulsifier. An emulsifier is the ingredient that holds all the other ingredients together to create the perfect blend. PEG 40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil creates a protective hydrating layer on the skin’s surface, acting as a barrier against the loss of natural moisture.

PEG 40 castor oil also has high concentrations of omega-9, which moisturizes your hair and keeps color-processed hair color from fading.

Resorcinol

Resorcinol is an oxidizing pigment. Resorcinol reacts with a developer to bond dye to hair. Resorcinol is a color modifier. It only works in conjunction with PPD. Resorcinol is not an independent component, it requires PPD to commence.

Sodium Hydroxide

Sodium Hydroxide is an alkaline buffer that assists in maintaining the alkaline levels in our dye and concentrates the pigments. This component works well with skin and in combination with our dye pigments secures a long lasting skin stain. The pH of a solution of sodium hydroxide is 9. This compound is is only found in 2 of our dyes, Ebony and Blue Ebony.

Pigments & Couplers

• 4-AMINO-M-CRESOL (beige, reddish brown and brown)

• M-AMINOPHENOL

• 4-AMINO-2-HYDROXYTOLUENE

• 2,4-DIAMINOPHENOXYETHANOL SULFATE

• CI 77499 (black)

• CI 77007(CTFA] ULTRAMARINES (Blue)

Prepare the mixture

STEP 1: Select the color of dye and squeeze a pea size of dye into the mixing palette.

STEP 2: Then squeeze out the same amount of developer into the mixing palette. Both dye and developer should be in a 50:50 ratio unless you’re customizing the dye shades.

STEP 3: Mix the dye and developer into a paste like texture.

STEP 4: Now, take the hybrid brush and use the slanted end of the brush and start applying the dye from the front of the brow to where the brow ends. Ensure you start right at the brow line.

STEP 5: Next, work on the top of the eyebrow.

I like doing the bottom of the eyebrow first, and then the top of the eyebrow. This outlining technique helps in defining that perfect eyebrow shape.

STEP 6: Next, apply generous amounts of dye in the body of the eyebrow.

I like to start this process by applying at the center of the brow moving toward where the brow ends.

STEP 7: Lightly fill in the front part of the eyebrow.

Be very gentle in your application when applying dye to the front of the brow. Do not apply an excessive amount of dye in the front of the eyebrow, that is not how most brows naturally grow; if they do, it is not for all eyebrows.

Please keep in mind that the hybrid brush has two ends. One end is slanted, which I have used to place the dye mixture on. I use the other side to clean up and create perfect lines.

Looks beautiful, right? Repeat the same technique to the other brow.

STEP 8: Next, add a hydrating eye mask. I will be using the Niccktownsend hydrating mask.

I apply these masks while the dye is processing on the eyebrows. Leave this on until you are finished ebellishing the brow.

STEP 9: Apply plastic wrap on the eyebrows. Plastic wrap is designed to speed up the process of brow dye services, by trapping the heat in and therefore speeding up the processing times. The plastic wrap method also allows the dye to penetrate better.

LET BROWS PROCESS FOR 7-10 MINUTES WITH PLASTIC WRAP.

STEP 10: Carefully remove the plastic wrap from the dyed eyebrows.

As the images above show, the dye has molded to the eyebrows.

STEP 11: Next, remove the dye. For this, you will need 4x4 gauze. Place gauze on the eyebrow. Then slightly press and finally begin gently removing the dye.

Repeat this process to the other eyebrow!

STEP 12: To finish, get your ‘just everything’ pencil. For our client, I will use highlighter pencil. Keep in mind that we are finishing the look. This pencil will heighten the brows and define the shape of the eyebrows. Ensure that the line is sharp.

Alternate between the pencil and the highlighter brush.

STEP 13: Take the highlighter brush and blend the Just Everything pencil by using a windshield wiping motion from the browline and into the skin.

REPEAT the process to the other brow.

STEP 14: Remove the hydrating under eye masks.

STEP 15: Lastly, apply the brow & lash setting gel to the eyebrows. Our Brow & Lash Setting Gel locks in the dye color and rehydrates the brow hairs.

AND YOU’RE DONE!

AFTER CARE AND BROW MAINTENANCE AFTER TINTING

After tinting, it is essential to provide your clients with basic maintenance tips to ensure the longevity of their tint. These instructions will help them take care of their brows at home, extending the life of the tint. Please note that the duration of the tint may vary for each client.

To preserve the tint and promote the health of your eyebrows post-tinting, it is important to nourish and replenish them. I recommend incorporating a daily brow serum, such as the Tresselix Brow Restoration Serum, into your routine. This will support the health and vibrancy of your brows, enhancing the longevity of the tint.

Tell them to:

• Allow the tint to settle. To do this, avoid getting the brows wet for at least 48 hours. Clean around the eyebrows when cleansing your face.

• Avoid rubbing the brow and eye area for at least the first 48 hours after tinting in order to protect the eyes.

• Use gel or cream-based cleansers around the brows instead of oil-based cleansers. Oil-based cleansers will reduce the tint life, stripping off the tint from the brows hairs a lot quicker.

• In case of reddening and irritation after tinting, ask clients to use a damp cloth to compress it on the area. Though this is rare, ask them to see a doctor if it persists.

• Strong UV light can lead to tint fading much quicker, so if clients can avoid direct sunlight, the tint will last longer.

• Avoid the steam room and sauna for 48 hours. If taking a shower, they should give it at least two hours if necessary. Use lukewarm water around the waxed area with antibacterial soap.

• The tint can last up to 4 to 6 weeks on the hair. Show the client that you will be more than happy to repeat the process on them after the tint has disappeared.

BROW DYE MIXES

These are our favorite shades and combinations we like to use on our clients. These mixing ratios are just a guide, and we recommend doing swatches and tests on different skin types to see for yourself how the combinations turn out.
