Marianne Beauty, Makeup & Hair Extensions

IMPORTANT NOTICE!!

It has been brought to our attention today when the signs have gone up, that the Farmfoods carpark now have parking restrictions of 1 hour 30 mins.

We have not been informed that this was taking place. Had we been informed prior to the signs going up we could have pre-warned anyone visiting the salon.

We are waiting to speak to management to see if there will be an option possibly for us to obtain parking permits for our clients to use whilst at the salon as I know alot of you shop in there before or after your appointments.

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause our clients and will keep you all informed on the outcome.

❓ question I get asked a lot ❓

What is Combination brows? It is a blend of two semi-permanent makeup techniques—typically microblading and ombre shading—to create a natural yet defined eyebrow look. Here’s a clear breakdown of the healing process, techniques, and benefits.

⸻

🩹 Healing Process (What to Expect)

Healing usually takes about 4–6 weeks, though the surface may appear healed sooner.

Days 1–3: Fresh & Bold

* Brows look dark, sharp, and slightly swollen
* Pigment appears more intense than the final result
* Mild tenderness or redness is normal

Days 4–10: Flaking & Scabbing

* Light scabs form and begin to flake off
* Brows may look patchy or uneven
* It’s important not to pick or scratch, or pigment can be lost

Days 10–14: “Ghosting” Phase

* Color may appear very light or faded
* This is normal—skin is still healing beneath the surface

Weeks 3–6: Color Returns & Settles

* Pigment gradually reappears and softens
* Final shape and tone become visible
* A top-up appointment is usually done around week 6–8

⸻

✍️ Techniques Involved

1. Microblading (Hair Strokes)

* Uses a fine blade to create individual hair-like strokes
* Ideal for the front of the brow for a natural look
* Works best on normal to dry skin (can blur on oily skin)

2. Ombre / Powder Shading

* Done with a machine to create a soft, pixelated shading effect
* Gives a makeup-like finish, darker at the tail, lighter at the front
* Longer-lasting and better for oily or mature skin

3. Combination Approach

* Hair strokes + shading together
* Hair strokes add realism, shading adds depth and fullness
* Customised based on face shape, skin type, and desired style

⸻

✅ Pros of Combination Brows

Natural but Defined Look

* Mimics real brow hairs while still giving a polished finish

Longer Lasting Than Microblading Alone

* Typically lasts 1–3 years depending on skin type and lifestyle

Suitable for More Skin Types

* Especially good for oily, sensitive, or mature skin, where microblading alone may not hold well

Fills Sparse Areas Effectively

* Great for people with thin, uneven, or over-plucked brows

Reduces Daily Makeup Time

* No need to fill in brows every day

Customisable

* Can be tailored from very natural to more defined/glam looks

⸻

⚠️ Things to Keep in Mind

* Requires proper aftercare (avoiding water, sweat, and makeup initially)
* A touch-up session is essential for best results
* Color will fade over time and need maintenance
