Brow IQ

Brow IQ has provided brow services since 2017 and serves Charlotte/Ballantyne and nearby communities. The business says it has worked with many clients in the area and gives online booking as a way to schedule.

The business says the wax is gentle and causes little to no irritation, and that removing hair at the root can help a brow shape last longer. Clients with thick brows can get a defined shape, and the business notes regrowth comes back softer. Brow mapping comes first for many shaping plans: the technician looks at face structure, natural brow growth and the shape the client wants, then plans the brow from there. The business says this planning is meant to prevent common mishaps such as uneven or thinned brows.

For color, Brow IQ offers custom-mixed brow tinting, which deposits color in a way the business compares to hair coloring. The tint is a vegetable-based hair tint that the business describes as eye safe. It lasts up to four weeks with proper care, according to the business. Henna tint is another option and lasts about six weeks, according to the business.

Microblading uses small cuts to mimic hair strokes and creates a natural-looking brow once healed. The business says results are long lasting and that clients usually return for a redo every two or three years. It also says microblading removes the need for daily makeup, shaping or waxing. Microshading uses an electric or manual pen to place dots of semi-permanent ink for an airbrushed look. Ombre or powder brows fill the brow in without individual hair strokes. Permanent makeup is offered for people who have lost brow hair, find it hard to apply brow makeup, or have busy schedules.

The business states that fair prices, superior quality and exceptional customer service are guaranteed. It lists professionalism, excellence and timeliness as its values, and it holds that consistency is key to keeping brows looking their best between visits.

Brow IQ describes its approach as precise, efficient and timely, with the client's satisfaction considered at every step.
