ChiBrowtique is a brow studio in River Forest, Illinois. Its main work is semi-permanent brow pigment: microblading, micro-shading, ombre powder brows and hybrid brows that combine hair strokes with machine shading. It also offers brow shaping, tinting, lamination and waxing, plus a hydration facial and a dermaplaning facial. The studio states that it is a licensed tattoo establishment under Illinois rules.
Visits begin with the design. A microblading appointment runs about three hours and covers the consultation, brow mapping, numbing and the procedure. Questions about color, shape and placement are settled first, and work starts only after the client approves the design.
Procedures are not done on skin with sunburn, rash, infection, open or questionable lesions, and brows cannot be sun-tanned or sunburned at the appointment. Clients submit a consent form and health history at least a week ahead. Before a procedure they are asked to avoid alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours and blood thinners such as ibuprofen or aspirin for 72 hours unless medically necessary, and to skip waxing, tinting or threading for a week. Anyone with an existing brow tattoo sends clear photos for approval before booking, including the date of the last tattoo, the number of sessions, and the business and artist name.
Brows look red and darker right after the procedure and typically fade by about 30% or more while healing. The studio says the color settles lighter over time, so a yearly color boost is recommended. It also says aftercare accounts for 50% or more of the final result, and asks for a 10-day healing period with limited sun, exercise, swimming and water on the brows. Results cannot be guaranteed, and extra sessions at extra cost may be needed.
Walk-ins are not accepted, and microblading must be booked online. There is no waitlist, and only clients with appointments may enter the studio, with guests not permitted. Clients must be at least 18 and show a government-issued photo ID. Rescheduling is allowed up to 48 hours ahead through the confirmation link, email or text. The $100 microblading deposit is non-refundable, with the remaining $400 due at the first visit. Gift cards are available in $25, $50, $100, $150 and $200 amounts or a custom amount, and they do not expire.
Each brow is mapped and designed with the client before any work begins, and the procedure goes ahead only once the client approves the design. Free email consultations are offered for questions about service and color.
