Brow lamination is NOT the same as microblading.  Brow lamination works by adding colour and definition to your eyebrows, setting them in place for up to eight weeks (which means no more messing around the brow pencils and brow gels!)  Microblading is a type of 'tattooing' which works on the skin rather than the hairs, creating realistic-looking brow hairs.

No, brow lamination is completely pain-free and there are no after-effects or healing process.  This service coats your existing lashes with a 'laminating' solution which keeps the hair strands in place.

After a consultation to assess your brows and the look and shape you desire, your trained beauty therapist will brush a special lifting solution through your brow hairs to break down the bonds within the hairs, leaving them soft and malleable.  After approximately 20 minutes, your brows will be brushed into your chosen position and a second neutralising solution applied to keep the hairs in place.  The aim is to lift the brows slightly to give a fuller, more feathered effect. Your brows may then be tweezed or waxed to give you the perfect eyebrow look you desire.

Most clients are looking for fuller-looking eyebrows with a raised arch and extended 'tail'.  By fixing the brows in place, we can make your eyebrows look fuller and can even place individual hairs to fill gaps where you have lost brow hairs. 

Brow lamination can give sparse eyebrows the appearance of slightly fuller brows because your hairs can be moved to cover sparse areas. 

Professional eyebrow shaping can give fantastic results and is usually carried out using wax and tweezers.  Your beauty therapist will discuss your requirements with you before delivering a beautifully shaped eyebrow.  You can enhance your perfectly shaped brow and add greater definition with a brow tint. If you have thin or sparse brows tinting is a great way to make your eyebrows look thicker and fuller. We can help you choose the right shade for your colouring before expertly applying the tint to your brows. While you're here, why not enhance your eyelashes with a lash tint? This effective treatment gives greater definition to your face making your eyes appear larger, brighter and less tired. The effect lasts for several weeks which means no more mascara! You’ll wake each morning with beautiful dark eyelashes and no ‘panda eyes’!  Find out more about our lash & brow services in Hove.

  • You should wax or shave at least 24 hours before application to make sure that your pores are closed. This will ensure you get a flawless golden tan without any "dotting".
  • Exfoliate before your tan to scrub away dead skin cells.
  • Avoid bath or shower gels that contain oils and try to leave at least 30 minutes between showering and your tan appointment.
  • Do not apply any make up, moisturiser, deodorant or perfume and remove all jewellery too.
  • Avoid wearing light coloured clothing (or your best underwear!)  Loose dark clothing is best.

Spray tanning is a quick, safe and effective way to achieve a golden glow.  Our tanning solution uses an active ingredient called dihydroxyacetone or DHA that enhances the colour of your skin.  It is applied by our trained beauty technician using a low-pressure spraying machine. DHA is a natural product that is extracted from sugar cane.  It works with the proteins and amino acids in the outermost layer of your skin, turning it a golden-brown colour.  The solution which is sprayed onto your skin contains a colour to guide the technician applying it.  Your golden tan will develop over a period of 6-8 hours.  After this, you will need to show and the guide colour will wash off, leaving you with a natural-looking tan underneath.

All the ingredients used in our tanning solution are naturally derived, gluten-free and free from parabens.  The DHA used is extracted from sugar cane and is recommended by the American FDA for safe tanning. If you are pregnant or have any concerns about skin allergies, we recommend you check with your GP before having your spray tan.  We will also carry out an allergy patch test prior to your tan being applied.

The length of time your tan will last varies from person to person, but generally, you can expect it to last between 5 and 10 days, depending on your lifestyle. To ensure the best results, we recommend that you prepare your skin thoroughly before your tan, using oil free products.  You should also moisturise well after the treatment.  Your sunless tan will fade gradually as the top layer of your skin naturally sheds its dead skin cells - in the same way that a real tan fades. 

Your appointment will begin with a consultation and patch test to check your skin for any allergies or sensitivities to the product to be used.  We will talk to you about the level of tan you would like to achieve and agree on the perfect shade for you. After this, we will ask you to undress (if you wish to) and remove any jewellery.  We will offer you disposable underwear if you'd like to use this or if you prefer not to undress, you could choose to wear dark shorts or swimwear for the treatment. Your tanning technician will then apply a barrier cream to areas such as fingernails and toenails that do not need a tan.  You will then be asked to enter a special tanning cubicle and a gentle stream of tanning lotion will be sprayed onto your face and body.  The treatment dries quickly and you will be able to dress immediately afterwards.  

No, you don't - it's totally up to you.  Some people choose to go topless or alternatively you could wear dark shorts or swimwear during the treatment.  We can provide you with disposable underwear if you'd like to use this, and if you use your own, remember not to bring light coloured garments that will stain.

After your spray tan treatment you should remember the following:

  • Wear loose dark clothing and flip flops or sandals.
  • Avoid wearing a bra which will rub and make marks on your new tan.
  • Avoid rubbing or scratching your tan as this could smudge it or make streaks.
  • Avoid taking excessive exercise that will cause your perspire and affect the tan.
  • Wait for at least 6 hours after your tan is applied before showering.  When you do, make sure to use a mild shower gel and pat yourself dry afterwards.
  • Wait until you have showered before applying any moisturisers, make up, perfumes or deodorants.
  • Never exfoliate straight after a spray tan.  Wait a few days to make sure your tan fades evenly.
  • Use an oil-free moisturiser to keep your skin hydrated and make sure your tan lasts as long as possible.  Speak to your Beach beautician for recommendations if you aren't sure which products to use.
  • Do not use hair removal creams as they will exfoliate the skin, shortening the life fo your tan.
  • Don't sit in the bath for long periods of time to avoid soaking off your tan and shortening its life.
  • Avoid sleeping on light coloured sheets as your tan could leave marks on them.

The choice is yours - our expert tanning technicians will talk to you about the shades available before we start.  Options range from lightly bronzed to darker shades of brown.

No, don't worry!  The days of orange fake tanning are definitely over!  With our Sienna X tanning services in Hove you can be certain of getting a gorgeous, even golden glow.
