Everything You Need To Know About HD Brows & My Experience

A few weeks ago I posted HD Brows as my POTW! 
This started off a lot of conversation with lots of people asking me lots of questions and a few local girls asking where to go in our area!
So I thought why not share a whole post with you girls (and guys?) about my experience with the HD Brow process over the last year or so and give you answers to some of those many questions!
Back in 2012 me and my pals were organising a trip to that little place called Essex for my best friend's 21st. For it we wanted to go all out - this included nails, hair, tan and of course - eyebrows!
I had known I wanted to start getting HD Brows done for a while I had heard such amazing tings about them and finding out a salon in my local town was trained to do them made it clear it was meant to be!
I have now been getting my brows done in the same salon for nearly 18 months and have never looked back!
Sorry for rubbish photos - iPhone 4s camera and lightning wasn't that fab was it? 
FAQ about HD Brows
What are HD Brows?
Well HD obviously stands for High Definition. The unique and professional shaping process transforms your eyebrows and the way you look and the way you feel! HD Brow trained stylist's use a technique known as the 'one shape fits all' and create the perfect brow after assessing the client's skin tone and face shape.

What does it involve?
The procedure has a number of steps... initial consultation,  tinting, trimming waxing, threading and tweezering to give the perfect HD finish.

How long to do need to grow your eyebrows for?
For my experience I's say grow them as much as you can, the more to work with the better and easier it is to transform the shape. I grew mine for a good 6 weeks before I went the first time. They were 2 caterpillars on my forehead... it was not a good look for me but it was worth it!

How often do you need to get them done?
Since getting them done I have been able to leave longer between each session every time. The last time I went probably 4 months .... this was probably a little too long but it was still bareable! They don't grow as fast anymore which is fantastic but I do miss the tint when it fades, having them dark looks so much better.

How much does they cost?
Each session costs £25.

Does it hurt?
In my opinion, no. The only bit that makes my eyes water is the threading - but it is hardly painful.

Where can I get them done?
You should only go with someone to get HD Brows if they are registered on the HD Brows website. These people have had the official training and are the only people trained to do HD Brows properly. You can find all of these on the HD Brows website - just enter in your postcode our local stylists and stockists.
Girls if you, like me, are on the Isle Of Wight then go to Melissa at Six Hair Studio in Star Street, Ryde - she is the best!

Do HD Brows do anything else?
YES! HD Brows also have a fabulous make-up & brush range to go alongside their best selling eyebrow products.
 They have foundations, blushers, powders, palettes and more to suit every skin tone and give you a flawless, professional finish (check them out here)! 
HD Brows & Me
As you can see as time has gone on I have become more confident with a bold eyebrow and have gone darker each time. 
I started off with more of an ashey blonde shade to match my hair but overtime I decided that the darker they are the better they look and the more "HD" they look.
I would never let anyone else touch my eyebrows now and wouldn't want any other treatment.
Having HD Brows done has completely changed the way I look at my eyebrows, and even my face. Before I was very, very lazy with my eyebrows - even as a make-up lover - I didn't really pay much attention to them and just penciled them in here and there every morning.
Now I love spending time in he morning using my pencils and hd brows palette , eyebrows really do change your face!

I highly recommend getting hd brows done - especially if you are like I was and don't really pay much attention or put alot of effort into your eyebrows at the moment. 
Having someone else do them for you is just so easy and not only do they change your face but it makes applying make up SO much easier! Threading makes your skin so smooth and putting on my eyeshadow has become so much easier, the colour sit and stay so much better!

Have any of you had HD Brows done? What did you think?

Like I said before, if you are reading this and are a lucky devil like me and live on the Isle Of Dreams Wight then head down to Six Hair Studio and see Melissa!
