Powder Brows in Birmingham, MI are a semi-permanent eyebrow treatment that shades tiny dots of pigment into the upper skin for a soft, filled-in ombre look. Our trained artists numb, measure and map each brow for symmetry, and the technique suits oily or mature skin better than microblading, with a touch-up about two months later. Explore our med spa services and book in Birmingham or East Lansing.
Powder brows, also called ombre brows or microshading, are a semi-permanent alternative to microblading. Instead of hair-like strokes, the artist uses a digital machine to place tiny dots and dashes of pigment. These soft pixels of color create a shaded, velvet “powdered” look. We offer powder brows in Birmingham, MI and East Lansing.
A “hybrid” or “combination” brow uses microblading strokes at the front and powder shading through the rest. Powder brows are part of our permanent makeup services, along with lip blushing and lash and brow tinting.

Color is matched to your hair and skin tone. Brows look dark at first, then fade to a soft, natural shade. A touch-up is required about two months after your first session.
Book your powder brows at either of our trusted locations. Our team includes board-certified surgeons, nurses and experienced medical aestheticians.
Both locations are open Monday through Saturday, with evening hours on Tuesday and Thursday. Book your appointment online or ask about financing with Cherry and CareCredit.
How long do powder brows last?
After the required touch-up at about two months, powder brows typically last one to three years. Oily skin, sun exposure and some skincare products can fade pigment faster. A color refresh keeps your brows crisp and defined.
Do powder brows hurt?
Most clients feel little discomfort. Numbing cream is applied first, and pigment sits in the upper layers of skin, so the work is less deep than a permanent eyebrow tattoo. Many clients describe only a light scratching feeling.
How long do powder brows take to heal?
Brows look darker and bolder for the first week or so, then soften as the skin heals. Light flaking is normal. Keep brows dry, avoid picking and limit heavy sweating while they heal. Your artist gives you full aftercare instructions.
Are powder brows good for oily skin?
Yes. Powder brows are often the best choice for oily skin. Microblading strokes tend to blur and fade on oily skin, while machine-placed shading holds pigment better. Your artist reviews your skin type and recommends powder, microblading or a hybrid brow.
What affects the cost of powder brows?
Cost depends on the brow style you choose, such as powder, hybrid or combination brows, and on your touch-up needs. Our team shares a clear quote before your appointment. Financing through Cherry and CareCredit is available at both locations.
