| - This salon is about 3 mins walk from North York Centre Station. Located on the second floor above restaurant/ bubble tea place 168.
They do lash extensions, tattoos, gel nails and facials.
I got my eyebrow tattoo done here and I am super satisfied!
Price is $300 and includes one time free touch up within two months. (They also do tattoo eyeliner and lips. If you do eyeliner and eyebrow together, you save about $50, total $450)
You can choose your own shape and color (black/dark brown/ light brown..) for the eyebrow tattoo. It last about a year.
So the day I booked my appointment at the salon, first thing is they put on nomming cream and let it sit about 30 minutes. (make sure you have no make up around the area)
Then Elysia (the owner) will ask you what shape you desire and what color you want, she will draw it out and make sure you are satisfied before she goes on
the tattoo process is about 1.5 hour. It definitely stings but I am sure it's nothing compare to real tattoo.. my skin in general is super sensitive, hence the area were super red afterwards for about a day or so.
When you are finished, the color is super dark and much thicker... however it will fade away so don't worry. that is not the final look.
Maintenance is the key if you want the color and shape to stay. You have to avoid water around the area for a day, no foam/soap for 3 days and avoid gym or sauna places that makes you sweat for 3 days. They provide you a cream in which you have to put on at least twice a day to keep it moist as the dead skin around the area will peel (it's normal) and itch... So DO NOT SCRATCH!!.. simply put on the cream or Vaseline as much as possible to keep it moist. This way helps color & shape to last.
The first time I did it, color fade away very quickly. I had dark brown too. Second time for touch up in which I went back in a month, I tried black.. this time color stayed on much better.
Overall, I am super happy that I got it done. Eylsia is very friendly. Though English is not their first language, but just have to communicate slowly and they do understand you.
With the eyebrow tattoo, I never have to worry about missing eyebrow after a long day of work (oily face) nor rubbing eyebrows when it's itchy or sweaty nor spend 5-10 minutes every morning to draw it out to the perfect shape and making sure both sides balance nor worry about someone touching or wiping your eyebrow off accidentally nor worry about forgetting to bring your brow pencil (and ended up trying to fill it with eye liner ;( ). So for whoever that has similar problems like me.. this is the cure to your problem!!
Another thing that might help is to check out their pictures on Elysiabeautybar on instagram.. This was definitely a useful guide/ reference.
Try it out! and I am sure you will be satisfied :) I highly recommend.
