Question 1

What is the difference between tint and dye?

Accepted Answer

Tint provides a softer and more subtle result with minimal skin staining and typically lasts around 3 weeks. Brow dye creates a more defined look with a skin stain effect similar to a temporary tattoo. Dye stains both the hair and skin, with the skin stain lasting around 5 days and the hair colour lasting approximately 6 weeks depending on the colour used.

Question 2

Can I use dye on my lashes as well?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Lash dye is a stronger alternative to traditional lash tint and can work well for lashes that do not hold tint effectively.

Question 3

Which is best for me, dye or tint?

Accepted Answer

Tint is ideal for clients wanting subtle colour and a natural finish. Dye is better suited for clients who prefer fuller, more defined brows and regularly fill in their brows with makeup.

Question 4

What if I don't like the colour?

Accepted Answer

Brazilian Body offers tint and dye remover that can lighten the colour by approximately half a shade. With 19 available colours ranging from blonde to black, the salon customises shades to suit each client.

Question 5

How long does tint and dye last?

Accepted Answer

Tint generally lasts around 3 weeks depending on the colour used. Brow dye stains both the skin and hair, with skin stain lasting around 5 days and hair colour lasting approximately 6 weeks.

Question 6

Why does dye last longer on some people?

Accepted Answer

The longevity of brow dye depends on the shade chosen and client aftercare. Darker colours contain more pigment and typically last longer than lighter shades such as blonde or light brown.

Question 7

How can I make my tint or dye last longer?

Accepted Answer

Avoid excessive cleansing, scrubbing and exfoliating around the brows after treatment. Products containing AHA, BHA and Vitamin C may also cause the colour to fade faster.

Question 8

I have gaps in my brows, will tint or dye fix that?

Accepted Answer

Tint does not stain the skin so it will not cover brow gaps. Dye can temporarily stain the skin to create the appearance of fuller brows, however the stain only lasts a few days. Your brow therapist can recommend a brow growth or shaping plan.

Question 9

Why do you map brows?

Accepted Answer

Brow mapping helps create the most symmetrical brow shape possible and provides a clean outline to follow during waxing and dye application.

Question 10

Why don't you offer Henna Brows anymore?

Accepted Answer

Brazilian Body moved away from Henna Brows because brow dye produced better results, was easier to work with and provided a superior client experience.

Question 11

What else should I know about brow dye?

Accepted Answer

Brow dye may appear bold for the first 1 to 2 days before softening into the final desired shade.

Question 12

What can I use between tint or dye appointments?

Accepted Answer

Brazilian Body offers a coloured brow gel that helps cover greys, add colour and hold brow hairs in place between appointments.
