Today I FINALLY took the plunge and got 'HD brow'd' I thought I'd post a review as for the last couple of weeks I've been searching google for before and after HD Brow pictures and to be honest there isn't that much out there, the same 'advert' pictures keep cropping up. The ones that are about are amazing though, and haven't seen a bad review so far.
What is HD Brows?
I'm sure by now most of you have heard about HD brows, but if you haven't... It is a seven step high precision treatment that promises to transform even the most over plucked blows. Treatments include tinting, waxing, threading, trimming, plucking, fresh mineral make-up and eyebrow pencil.
The Treatment
The first treatment was tinting, my eyebrows are an absolute pain to dye, the colour doesn't take very well at all, so the dye was applied a few more times throughout the treatment to get my desired result. Next was the waxing which I'm used to, what was different to any other wax that I have had was that my eyebrows were waxed from above too! Then came the plucking, pretty standard stuff there... then threading; now this was a very weird feeling, I can't explain how it feels but if you ever have it done you'll think back to this post and realise what I mean... it doesn't hurt it's just weird, kind of feels nice!
I asked the beautician about HD brow make-up as I wanted to have natural looking eyebrows and my old pencil was very waxy, thick and totally the wrong colour for me. She was very helpful and showed me the palette and explained how to use it and what each colour was for she also said that it lasts for ages.. she applied some to my brows and I loved it and bought it!
So after my first lecture back at uni today (yawn) I went over to 'The lash and Brow Boutique' in Cardiff...

Onto the best bit... the pictures :)
BEFORE
For reference: My last eyebrow wax was in mid July and have only plucked once since then (and that was only a few stray hairs)
Firstly.. I don't know if any of you realise how hard it is to get a decent picture of you eyebrows lol! Also I normally wear eyebrow pencil which makes a big difference to my brows, but thought it would be a better review to show you without pencil; even though this picture is REALLY embarrassing lol! But yea you can see just how bad my eyebrows were..
- Bushy; not in a good way
- Monobrow central
- Funny gingery browny blonde colour
- NO shape whatsoever
- Just disgusting in every way shape and form
AFTER
I AM SOOOOOOOO HAPPY!!
This is definitely the best my brows have ever looked in my life! I wish I could have taken a better picture! But seriously I'm so impressed.. she turned me around to look in the mirror and I was like woaaaaah... it was as if she took someone elses eyebrows and glued them on my face!!
The treatment is £25 (£20 with student discount :D) and I think it is definitley worth it.. I'm going back next month... don't think I would be happy with just a plain wax ever again! So if your thinking of splashing out on your eyebrows I would say definitely go for HD brows!
Here's a picture of the palette I purchased..
This palette is really good as it can also be used as eyeshadow, eyeliner and concealer! The colours are all powder which I was a bit worried about for my brows, but loved it after I had it on...
I have a mixture of the left black and brown on my brows! To use as eyeliner and concealer you wet the brush! The right two colours at the end are the concealers.
Can't wait to try and use this palette myself!
Overall, a very good experience and a very happy lady :)
