Ocean Brows & Aesthetics

Ocean Brows & Aesthetics is in a corner unit off Osceola Avenue, next to Raymond James, in Jacksonville Beach. The business describes itself as a microblading specialist in Jacksonville. The storefront has ample parking and a waiting area. Services are by appointment only, Tuesday through Saturday from 11 AM to 7 PM, and the studio is closed Sunday and Monday. Clients can cancel without charge by calling or texting at least 48 hours ahead, since email is not accepted. Cancelling or rescheduling inside 48 hours, or a no-show, is charged at 50% of the service, and rescheduling is free with 48 hours' notice. Packages run for 12 months from purchase and cannot be split, transferred or combined with promotional discounts.

Brow work is the core of the menu. Microblading is listed at $670, which includes a first treatment and a second 30 days later, with touch-ups at six to 12 months for $375; the result lasts six to 12 months. Powder brows and combination brows, which pair microblading with powder, are $770 with touch-ups at $395, and they last about two to three years. Microblading can be used for color correction and cover-up, for natural-looking brows, and for scar correction. Touch-ups are only done over the studio's own previous work, and other previous work needs a full retreat first. Initial treatments include a complimentary consultation. Brow shaping is $26, or $38 with tint, and lip blushing with lip neutralization, which lightens darker lip tones, is also offered.

Facials run one hour including changing time and cover the face and neck, with décolletage available as an add-on for $100. Listed facials include the Oxygen and Brightening facials at $140 each, the Dermapeel facial at $155, the Firming Peptide facial with LED and the Fire and Ice facial at $175 each, and a Custom Ocean facial with dermaplaning at $140. Facial upgrades are High Frequency or Microcurrent at $25 each, and dermaplaning or LightStim Pro-Panel LED at $50 each. Peel options include a lactic acid peel at $85, MandeliClear peels at $180 per session with packages of three at $465 and six at $900, and the SWiCH Dermal Rejuvenation System as a peel alternative at $175 per unit. Most services are open to men, with a male brow grooming at $26, a men's skin treatment at $140 that takes 45 minutes, and a beard treatment at $155.

Microneedling is done with the Exceed device, and a consultation is required before the first session. Sessions are usually two to four weeks apart, with courses typically between four and 12 sessions. A treatment takes about an hour including 30 minutes of numbing, or about 75 minutes when the neck is included. Single facial sessions are $375, face and neck $475, a four-session face-only series $1,200 against a listed value of $1,500, and a four-session face and neck series $1,600 against a listed value of $1,900. Aftercare uses Cleansing Complex cleanser, Hydracool Serum, Sheald recovery balm and Extreme Protect SPF 40. The LED Professional Panel is listed for anti-aging and pain relief at $85 per session, $408 for a package of six, or $714 for twelve. LightStim for Pain is $50, which the business describes as reducing pain and increasing local blood circulation.

Lash lift and tint is $98 and takes about 45 minutes to an hour, with results lasting six to eight weeks. The lift uses a product the business calls one of the industry's top brands, along with an all-natural vegetable dye. Lash tint without lifting is $23. Clients should not have lashes with makeup applied within 24 hours before a lift. Massage here is medical-focused and aimed at pain and injury rather than standard relaxation. Custom medical massage is $115 for an hour or $135 for 90 minutes, neuromuscular massage is $125 an hour, Reiki is $150 an hour, prenatal massage is $115 an hour, and reflexology is $75 for 30 minutes. An extra 30 minutes is $30. Travel massage adds a $50 fee within 25 miles of the studio, and half-day and full-day event massage is priced by consultation. A VIP membership gives monthly perks such as special discounts, priority booking and promotions, and can be joined by email or text, or in person at a skin or massage visit.

Pairs brow and skin work with licensed practitioners and medical-focused massage for pain and injury. The business says its aim is exceptional service and high-quality results.
