LASH EXTENSION

  • While it is a common concern, rest assured that at SLB, we prioritize the health and integrity of your natural lashes. Contrary to popular misconceptions, properly applied eyelash extensions should not cause damage.

    It's important to note that poorly applied extensions, often found in cheaper salons lacking ongoing lash education, can indeed lead to damage. This typically occurs when extensions are too long or heavy for your natural lashes to support, or when they are applied without proper isolation, causing lashes to clump together.

    At SLB, we are lash specialists committed to maintaining the health of your lashes. We invest significant time and effort in ongoing training and staying abreast of the latest lash technology to ensure your lashes remain healthy and you look your best. You can trust us to never compromise on the quality and safety of your lash extensions.

  • Indeed, at our establishment, we offer a selection of lash materials tailored to suit diverse preferences and complement individual natural lashes. The choice between silk and faux mink lashes depends on various factors, including the desired style and the characteristics of your natural lashes. Our experienced technicians are equipped to guide you through this decision-making process, ensuring that you receive personalized recommendations that best enhance your unique features and achieve your desired look. Whether you prefer the glossy finish of silk lashes or the soft, natural appearance of faux mink lashes, we strive to provide options that cater to your needs, allowing you to achieve stunning results tailored to your preferences.

    Let's break down the differences between silk lashes and faux mink lashes:

    Silk Lashes:

    Material: Silk lashes are made from synthetic fibers, often nylon or polyester. Despite the name, they don't contain actual silk.

    Appearance: Silk lashes have a glossy finish and a uniform curl pattern, providing a glamorous look.

    Texture: They have a slightly stiffer texture compared to mink lashes.

    Durability: Silk lashes are known for their durability and ability to retain their shape well over time.

    Cost: They are typically more affordable than mink or faux mink lashes.

    Faux Mink Lashes:

    Material: Faux mink lashes, also known as synthetic mink lashes, are made from synthetic fibers designed to mimic the appearance and feel of real mink fur.

    Appearance: Faux mink lashes aim to replicate the softness, lightweight feel, and natural appearance of real mink lashes. They often have a tapered, fluttery effect.

    Texture: Faux mink lashes tend to be softer and more lightweight compared to silk lashes, offering a more natural look and feel.

    Durability: They are generally durable and can withstand regular wear without losing their shape.

    Cost: Faux mink lashes are usually more expensive than silk lashes but less costly than real mink lashes.

    In summary, silk lashes are made from synthetic fibers and have a glossy finish, while faux mink lashes are synthetic alternatives designed to mimic the appearance and feel of real mink fur. Faux mink lashes tend to be softer and more lightweight, offering a natural look, while silk lashes have a slightly stiffer texture and provide a glamorous look.

  • We highly recommend scheduling a refill appointment every three weeks to maintain the optimal appearance and longevity of your lash extensions. This timeframe ensures that your lashes remain full, voluminous, and seamlessly blended with your natural lashes. Regular refills help to address any gaps or sparse areas that may occur as your natural lashes shed and new ones grow in. By adhering to this recommended schedule, you can enjoy consistently beautiful and well-maintained lash extensions, prolonging their lifespan and maximizing their impact. Our team is dedicated to providing you with comprehensive care and ensuring that your lashes always look their absolute best.

  • Eyelash extensions should not cause pain or discomfort when applied properly and worn correctly. The application process should be gentle and pain-free, with the extensions adhered to your natural lashes without causing any pulling or tugging sensations. Similarly, during daily wear, you should not feel any discomfort from the lash extensions.

    However, if you do experience any discomfort, such as itching, irritation, or a sensation of heaviness on your eyelids, it's essential to address it promptly. These symptoms could indicate an allergic reaction to the adhesive or an improper application technique. In such cases, it's crucial to inform your lash stylist immediately so they can assess the situation and make any necessary adjustments or provide appropriate care.

    Your safety and comfort are our top priorities, and we are committed to ensuring that your lash extension experience is both enjoyable and worry-free. If you have any concerns or experience any discomfort, please don't hesitate to communicate with us so we can address them promptly and ensure your satisfaction with your lash extensions.

  • At our studio, the duration of the lash extension application typically ranges between 1 to 2 hours, depending on the specific style chosen. Our experienced technicians have accumulated thousands of hours of expertise in applying lash extensions. However, we prioritize safety and precision, ensuring that each natural lash is meticulously covered for optimal results. Achieving perfection requires time and attention to detail, and we believe that quality cannot be rushed.

    For clients with time constraints, we offer 'Express Fills' as an alternative option. These appointments are completed in half the usual time, allowing for a quicker 'in and out' experience. However, it's important to note that 'Express Fills' are recommended every two weeks instead of the standard three weeks to maintain the quality and integrity of your lash extensions. Despite the shorter duration, we remain committed to upholding the highest standards of quality and safety in every service we provide.

  • We take pride in delivering lash extension sets that ensure 100% coverage, meaning that every suitable natural lash receives an extension application. This meticulous approach guarantees a full and voluminous lash look that enhances your natural beauty.

    It's essential to note that cheaper or quicker lash extension sets may only provide approximately 40% to 60% coverage. Furthermore, the application technique in such cases may compromise safety and quality. Suboptimal coverage can result in an uneven or sparse appearance, detracting from the overall aesthetic and potentially causing discomfort or damage to your natural lashes.

    Our commitment to excellence means that we prioritize safety and precision in every aspect of our lash extension services. By ensuring 100% coverage and employing proper application techniques, we aim to provide you with results that exceed your expectations and leave you feeling confident and beautiful.

    1. Allergy to adhesives, glues, tapes, band-aids, or similar products.

    2. Undergoing chemotherapy treatment within the last 6 months (may require medical clearance from your doctor).

    3. Thyroid condition.

    4. Underwent Lasik surgery less than 6 months ago (may require medical clearance from your doctor).

    5. Underwent Blepharoplasty less than 6 months ago (Eyelid Surgery).

    6. Wear contact lenses.

    7. Have extremely oily hair and skin.

    8. Currently experiencing eye irritation or infection.

    9. Pregnancy:

    - It is generally safe to continue having lash extensions during pregnancy if you already have them on.

    - However, it is not advised for pregnant women who have never had lash extensions to get them during pregnancy.

    - Pregnant clients should inform us of their pregnancy when booking a lash fill appointment.

    - We allow extra time for the appointment to ensure comfort, accommodate changing positions, and allow for toilet breaks.

    It's essential to prioritize your health and safety when considering eyelash extensions. If you have any of the mentioned conditions or circumstances, please consult with your healthcare provider before proceeding with lash extensions. Additionally, informing your lash technician about any relevant medical history or conditions is crucial to ensure a safe and comfortable experience.

  • Typically, no, but we recommend booking a consultation appointment. During the consultation, we will assess your current lash situation to determine if the previous work done is comparable with our own standards. If your existing lashes are poorly applied or do not meet our quality standards, we may recommend removal and a full set to ensure the best results.

    Our priority is to provide you with beautiful, long-lasting lash extensions that enhance your natural beauty while maintaining the health and integrity of your lashes. By conducting a thorough assessment during the consultation, we can tailor our services to meet your specific needs and ensure that you achieve the desired results.

  • No, we do not recommend wearing mascara with your eyelash extensions. Mascara can reduce the lifespan of classic eyelash extensions and cause them to clump together, particularly with fluffy volume extensions. Additionally, wearing mascara may create a less natural look and can be challenging to remove without damaging the extensions.

    With eyelash extensions, you will not feel the need to wear mascara. Say goodbye to panda eyes and hello to waking up feeling gorgeous every day. Eyelash extensions provide a beautiful, effortless look without the hassle of applying mascara daily. They enhance your natural lashes, giving you a fuller, more defined appearance that lasts throughout the day.

    By avoiding mascara and opting for eyelash extensions, you can enjoy the convenience and beauty of effortlessly stunning lashes without the need for daily makeup application. Say goodbye to smudges and clumps and hello to effortless beauty with eyelash extensions.

  • Before your wedding or birthday celebration, we recommend scheduling an allergy patch test and consultation or having the full set of lashes applied 2-3 weeks before your wedding or birthday event. Following this, a lash fill appointment should be scheduled for the day before the event. This approach minimizes the risk of allergic reactions and allows for any necessary styling adjustments to ensure your lashes are absolutely perfect for your special occasion.

  • Reactions to eyelash extensions are rare, but your peace of mind is our priority at SLB. That's why we offer a complimentary patch test as part of our service. During the patch test, a small number of lashes are applied to your eyes, and if no reaction occurs within 48 hours, you'll be able to receive your full set of extensions. This patch test helps eliminate the chance of an acute allergic reaction, although it's still possible to develop an allergy over time.

    If you experience any itching, redness, swelling, or other irritation while wearing your lash extensions, it's essential to contact your doctor immediately for an appointment. Please also inform us of the situation as soon as possible so we can assist you with aftercare or removal, pending your doctor's advice.

    Your safety and comfort are paramount to us, and we are here to support you every step of the way. If you have any concerns or questions about reactions or aftercare, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're committed to ensuring that your lash extension experience is not only beautiful but also safe and worry-free.

COSMETIC TATTOO

BROWS

  • Nano strokes and microblading are both techniques used in semi-permanent makeup to create natural-looking hair strokes for eyebrows. While they may provide similar end results, there are differences between the two techniques:

    1. Nano Strokes:

    - Tool: Nano strokes are created using a single nanoneedle, which allows for precise and individual hair strokes to be crafted.

    - Suitability for Skin Types: Nano strokes are particularly suitable for oily skin types. The single nanoneedle allows for cleaner, more controlled hairstrokes with less risk of pigment being implanted too deeply.

    - Additional Techniques: Nano strokes may include nanoshading, which adds a soft shading effect to the eyebrows for added depth and dimension.

    - Precision and Control: Nano strokes offer increased accuracy and control compared to microblading due to the use of a single nanoneedle.

    2. Microblading:

    - Tool: Microblading uses a collection of microneedles arranged in a blade shape to manually craft hairstrokes.

    - Suitability for Skin Types: While microblading can be effective for various skin types, it may not be as effective for oily skin types compared to nano strokes.

    - Technique: Microblading involves manually creating hairstrokes with the blade-shaped tool, which requires skill and precision.

    - Results: Microblading can provide natural-looking hairstrokes but may have limitations in terms of precision and control compared to nano strokes.

    At our studio, we prioritize the safety and well-being of our clients. We acknowledge your concerns regarding the long-term safety of microblading, and as a result, we have chosen not to offer this technique.

    Instead, we focus on providing alternative methods, such as nano strokes, that are considered safer for long-term use. Nano strokes offer precise and individual hair strokes with less risk, particularly for clients with oily skin types.

    Our commitment to your safety drives our decision-making process, and we are dedicated to offering techniques and services that prioritize your health and satisfaction. If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to our team for assistance.If you need further advice or assistance in deciding, don't hesitate to reach out to our friendly team for personalized guidance.

  • Certainly! Here's an overview of the different techniques for enhancing brows:

    1. NANO HAIRSTROKE:

    - Technique: Nano hairstroke utilizes a digital tattoo machine with a single nano needle. This needle is finer than those used in traditional tattoo machines, allowing for extremely precise and detailed hairstrokes. The nano needle allows for greater precision and control in creating individual hair strokes, resulting in a more natural-looking brow enhancement.Nano hairstroke is considered safe for most skin types, including oily skin. The digital machine allows for consistent depth and pressure, reducing the risk of pigment being implanted too deeply into the skin.

    - Benefits: Nano hairstroke offers exceptional precision and detail due to the use of a digital tattoo machine with a fine nano needle. This allows for ultra-fine hairstrokes and intricate detailing, resulting in natural-looking brows. Nano hairstroke may have a slightly faster healing time compared to microblading due to the precise application and minimal trauma to the skin.

    2. SHADING:

    - Technique: Shading is a technique where a tattoo machine is used to add density to the brow, creating a more filled-in look. This technique is suitable for oily skin types and for individuals with sparse areas in their brows.

    - Benefits: Shading can help fill in gaps or sparse areas in the brows, providing a fuller and more defined appearance. It's particularly effective for those with oily skin, as it tends to hold pigment better.

    3. COMBINATION BROWS:

    - Technique: Combination brows combine both microblading and shading techniques to create the ultimate natural and fluffy-looking brows. This technique offers the best of both worlds, providing the precision of microblading with the density of shading.

    - Benefits: Combination brows offer versatility and customization, allowing for a tailored approach to achieve the desired brow look. It's suitable for various skin types and can address different brow concerns effectively.

    It's essential to book a consultation with us to determine which technique is most suitable for your individual needs. During the consultation, we can assess your brows, discuss your preferences and goals, and recommend the best approach to achieve your desired look. Whether you opt for nano hairstroke, shading, or a combination of both, the goal is to enhance your natural beauty and create beautiful, defined brows that complement your features.

  • The longevity of nano hairstroke, also known as nano eyebrow tattooing, can vary depending on several factors, including skin type, lifestyle, aftercare, and individual factors. However, in general, nano hairstroke results can last for approximately 1 to 2 years or longer with proper care and maintenance.

    Here are some factors that can affect the duration of nano hairstroke results:

    1. Skin Type: Different skin types may retain pigment differently. Typically, oily skin types may experience slightly faster fading compared to dry or normal skin types.

    2. Lifestyle: Activities such as exposure to sunlight, swimming, sauna, and use of skincare products containing exfoliating ingredients can accelerate the fading of pigment.

    3. Aftercare: Following the recommended aftercare instructions provided by your artist is crucial for ensuring the longevity of nano hairstroke results. Proper care during the healing process and ongoing maintenance can help preserve the pigment and extend the lifespan of the eyebrow tattoo.

    4. Touch-Up Appointments: Periodic touch-up appointments may be necessary to maintain the desired shape, color, and density of the brows over time. These touch-ups help refresh the pigment and address any fading or changes in the brows.

    5. Individual Factors: Factors such as metabolism, hormonal changes, and medications can also influence how long nano hairstroke results last for each individual.

    It's important to keep in mind that semi-permanent makeup techniques like nano hairstroke are not permanent and will gradually fade over time. To maximize the longevity of your nano hairstroke results, it's essential to follow the aftercare instructions provided , avoid activities that can accelerate pigment fading, and schedule periodic touch-up appointments as needed.

  • Everyones pain threshold is different. The majority explains that cosmetic tattoo is very mild to none. Most people feel little to none, while others may feel a very mild discomfort.

  • The appointment should take about two hours, which also includes a consultation with your artist.

  • To ensure you experience the best comfort as possible, two forms of topical anesthetic is used before and during treatment to drastically minimize any discomfort.

    Cosmetic Tattoo lasts anywhere between 1-3 years but the longevity of the pigment will depend on your skin type and condition. Clients with dryer skin will hold pigment better than oily skin clients, depending on your skin type and condition a recommended yearly top up should be in-between 1-2 years. Your brows will eventually lighten up and fade if you don’t continue with top ups.

    • Do not drink coffee, alcohol or energising drinks on the day of treatment.

    • Do not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E or Ibuprofen 24 hours before treatment.

    • Do not tan or have intense sun exposure 3 days before treatment.

    • No waxing 2-3 days before treatment.

    • No chemical peels, dermabrasion, laser or any other intense treatments 2 weeks before treatment.

    • Shower and fix your hair as you need to take extra care not to get your brows wet for several days.

  • Cosmetic Tattooing is not suitable for the following:

    • Pregnant & breastfeeding mothers

    • Chemotherapy patients

    • Keratosis

    • Diabetics

    • Seborrhea Dermatitis

    • Extremely sensitive skin

    • Excessive sebum (very oily skin)

    • Sunburnt skin

    • Skin that has recently had any sort of laser/cosmetic treatments.

  • Absolutely, patience is key when it comes to considering cosmetic tattoos, during pregnancy and breastfeeding. It's essential to prioritize the health and well-being of both the mother and the baby.

    Several factors contribute to the recommendation of waiting until after pregnancy and breastfeeding to undergo cosmetic tattoo procedures:

    Hormonal Changes: Pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause significant hormonal fluctuations in the body, which may affect the healing process of the tattoo and the retention of pigment. Hormonal changes can also impact skin sensitivity and overall health, potentially increasing the risk of complications.

    Skin Sensitivity: Pregnancy can make the skin more sensitive, and the tattooing process may cause discomfort or irritation. Additionally, the body's immune system may be altered during pregnancy, which could affect how the skin reacts to the tattoo procedure.

    Health Considerations: Pregnancy and breastfeeding require special attention to health and safety considerations. Introducing foreign substances, such as tattoo pigment, into the body during this time may pose potential risks to both the mother and the baby. It's important to prioritize the health and well-being of both individuals.

    Healing Process: The healing process of a cosmetic tattoo may be affected by the body's response to pregnancy and breastfeeding. It's essential for the body to focus on supporting the health of the mother and baby during this time, rather than diverting resources to heal a tattoo.

    Given these considerations, it's generally recommended to wait until after pregnancy and breastfeeding to undergo cosmetic tattoo procedures. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider and a qualified tattoo artist for personalized advice and recommendations based on individual circumstances. Patience and prioritizing health and safety are paramount during this special time.

  • Yes. The Procedure will not hinder you from going to work. However, there might be some redness and tenderness & strict cleaning/after care is required so depending on the nature of your work it may be better to plan ahead.

LIPS BLUSH / DARK LIPS CORRECTION

  • Blush Lip tattoo it's a form of a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing makeup, that enhances the colour and shape of your natural lips. This form of tattooing has grown increasingly popular over the last few years due to its low maintenance and beautiful results. Unlike the older forms of lip tattooing from 10 years ago, lip blushing tattoo is a new, modern form of getting your lips tattooed, that provides a more natural-looking result.

  • Blush lips can give you the fuller lip effect that can last anywhere between 3-5 years depending on the intensity of the colour that you are wanting to have applied. Additional touch ups may be required depending on the person and look desired. Permanent makeup ink is not the same as body art ink, and by design it does not last as long as body art ink.

  • One of my favourite benefit of this treatment is that it can boost confidence in women who may have thin, pale or scarred lips. It is often a treatment that is empowering for people who have had injuries to their lips or mouth that left them with scars, as it can reshape their lips and completely transform their look.

  • Yes! Lip fillers aren't a problem at all, however, if you have recently put lip fillers you need to wait for 3 to 4 weeks till the fillers settle before going ahead with blush lips.

  • This it's actually one of the most common questions I get and I think it even deserves a Blog post on its own, but I can say, Yes and No. Yes, it will give you definition, shape and colour which ultimately gives you the bigger lip look, however, with blush lips we can't tattoo over the border of your natural lips, so if you are concerned about lip volume, maybe we need to add a little lip filler to the mix.

  • You’ve bitten your lip before, haven’t you? When you bite your lip you experience some pain, but blush lips it's not that painful at all, a majority of clients who have gotten a blush lip have said the pain is a measly 3/10. So it’s really not that bad, especially when we add a bit of topical numbing cream.

    • Do not drink coffee, alcohol or energising drinks on the day of treatment.

    • Do not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E or Ibuprofen 24 hours before treatment.

    • Do not tan or have intense sun exposure 3 days before treatment.

    • No waxing 2-3 days before treatment.

    • No chemical peels, dermabrasion, laser or any other intense treatments 2 weeks before treatment.

    • Shower and fix your hair as you need to take extra care not to get your brows wet for several days.

  • Like any other form of semi-cosmetic tattooing, a consultation is required to access your suitability for this procedure, you can book a consultation online here, or you can email me at: hello@seduirelabeaute.com requesting an online consult.

  • Absolutely, patience is key when it comes to considering cosmetic tattoos, during pregnancy and breastfeeding. It's essential to prioritize the health and well-being of both the mother and the baby.

    Several factors contribute to the recommendation of waiting until after pregnancy and breastfeeding to undergo cosmetic tattoo procedures:

    Hormonal Changes: Pregnancy and breastfeeding can cause significant hormonal fluctuations in the body, which may affect the healing process of the tattoo and the retention of pigment.

  • Lips can heal incredibly fast, you will have a feeling that your lips are completely healed within 7 days, however, it can take up to 5 or 6 weeks to have your lips fully healed and ready for a touch-up session if needed. Directly after the procedure, it's quite common to have some minor to mild swelling for the first 24 to 48 hours, also the colour will appear brighter, fading over up to 60% in the first 7-10 days.

  • This permanent makeup technique suits people with cooler skin tones and generally darker lips. In this procedure, our Artist corrects and neutralizes uneven color on the lips. Most people who opt for this technique have purple, blue, gray, or brown lips and prefer a warm red or pink color.

    This is because women have different lip colors, not always the peachy pink or candy red shades seen in movies. The amount of melanin in our skin somewhat determines this color. The more melanin we have, the darker our skin is, right down to the lips.

  • Aftercare <= Click Here

  • With the Dark Lips technique, the Artist uses a unique needle to inject artificial pigments of different colors into the dermis. The dye then interacts with the lip's natural color, which is obtained from melanin. The overall color changes depending on the pigments injected into the lips and their reaction with the melanin in the lips. Since artists cannot determine the final color, they cannot guarantee a specific shade.

    Nevertheless, the procedure gives darker-colored lips a lighter, more even color, so they look much brighter. The corrective process can also help improve the color of pale lips by giving them a blush-like color.

  • Wondering if Dark Lips correction is the right option? Here are some of the advantages of choosing this technique:

    You get well-defined lips with harmonious contours.

    It enhances color for a tremendous no-makeup look and dresses up your smile.

    It lasts long and does not fade.

    Your lipstick will give a better color result in one application.

    No need to correct the color of the lips before applying lipstick.

  • Since the procedure produces semi-permanent results, it is only natural that your lips will need some time to heal after the procedure. This is what the healing and follow-up process can look like.

    After the first session of the neutralization procedure, your lips need 6 to 8 weeks to heal.

    During this period, the color of the pigment will begin to fade.

    Shortly after the session, your lips may be bright red and have some swelling, but this is normal. The color can remain the same for about a week.

    Your Artist may recommend avoiding sun exposure, strenuous activities such as high-intensity exercise, and applying makeup. He will also prescribe an ointment to moisturize the lips and prevent itching.

    While your lips are recovering, be sure to keep them clean and moisturized.

    One week after the first procedure, your lips will begin to flake and peel, but be careful not to scratch these scabs. Otherwise, you risk creating scars that will lead to new pigmentation.

    After the first two weeks, the bright color obtained during the first session will diminish, and the pigment will start to react with the melanin in the body. The intensity of the color will initially decrease to about 60% of what it was.

    A new round of scabs and abrasions may occur. So be sure to continue your regular care program.

    Then, you can go to your artist for a follow-up, during which he or she will perform a second session. This may include a targeted pigment or another neutralization cycle. In both cases, you can expect the skin to go through a similar healing phase, but it heals quickly in about 4-6 weeks.
