Ladies, It’s So Important to

Brows! But Don’t Forget to Check Your Get Your Breasts Examined

By Candice Wiener

Well-groomed eyebrows frame your face and can emphasize your best facial features. Eyebrows have been on the forefront of beauty trends for at least the last decade and for good reason. Having brows that are unkempt, overgrown or misshaped can put a hamper on your beautiful facial features. Having been subject to a strange accident in pre-school, I sustained a scar from a xylophone (you know the colored musical instrument with the string on it) in my left eyebrow. For years, I noticed that because of that scar, they were no longer symmetrical. For years I used brow powder, gels, pencils or anything to color in the loss pigment where the scar was. But hair just wouldn’t grow where the scar is, so every day I would fill in my scar before jetting out the door to school and as an adult, off to work. No one could really notice, unless I pointed this flaw out but I knew they would never look like they did pre-scar. So, for

years I just accepted it and went on about my business, not letting it bother me. Then one day a girlfriend came to me and said she had recently had her brows done by a permanent makeup artist. Right away, I thought to myself, ‘no way am I going to have anything permanent on my face!’ Just the thought of something not going right and being there permanently was enough for me not to consider that option whatsoever. However, I started looking at her eyebrow technician’s work and admiring her flawless eyebrows she did for tons of clients, as they say a picture is worth a thousand words. So, I contacted her eyebrow master and scheduled a consult. I still was a little apprehensive and wasn’t sure if I was actually going to get the procedure done, but from the minute I met her, she put me at ease, explaining the entire process. Paula is originally from Brazil and she explained that Brazilian women have been using this process for hundreds and hundreds of years. Permanent tattooing, microblading and brow lamenting has apparently been a thing in the US for years, being brought over from the original techniques used by beautiful Brazilian women.

I went ahead and scheduled the treatment and Paula showed me how she measures and temporarily marks where she will work on your eyebrows to ensure symmetry. She thoroughly explained the process and what to expect. I was completely in LOVE with the way she shaped them and the way they looked. Although it’s not a medical “health treatment,” I didn’t realize how important eyebrows are to your overall aesthetic look and let’s face it- your eyebrows live on your face! I now strongly recommend this treatment for anyone who is unhappy of how they look. Some women may realize that their brows could use some work, while others are completely unaware of how this treatment would enhance their overall look and leave them more confident than they were prior to the treatment. Now, let’s face it… We’ve all seen these victims of atrocious eyebrows and there’s no nice or easy way to tell someone they should consider getting theirs fixed. If I took things personal when my friend suggested the treatment to me, I may have never experienced what I now believe is completely worthwhile and I’m a strong believer that if you look in the mirror and are unhappy whatsoever about your eyebrows, you should at least book a consult and draw your own conclusion about the treatments available. Paula is a phenomenal eyebrow master, and I can assure you, you will be glad you did!
