Small details that change how your whole look reads

Brows do a surprising amount of work. A fresh haircut or new color can look unfinished if the brows around it are overgrown, patchy or much lighter than your hair. A quick wax tidies the shape, and a tint brings the color into line so your brows frame your face instead of fading into it.

At Elevate, brow services fit around your hair. When you book online, eyebrow wax and eyebrow tint appear as add ons to a hair service, so you take care of them on the same day without a second appointment elsewhere. Our spa menu also lists henna brows. If you have lightened your hair and your brows now look too dark, or gone darker and they look washed out, mention it at your consultation so your stylist can suggest the brow service that brings everything together.

Brow services are performed by Jessica, who also offers lash lifts and tints, so you can take care of brows and lashes together with one person.

Book Now
  • Eyebrow wax

    A wax cleans up stray hairs around the brow and refines the shape you already have. It keeps brows looking intentional and pairs easily with a cut, a color, or a lash service in the same visit.

  • Eyebrow tint

    A tint deepens the color of your brow hairs so sparse or light areas look fuller and more defined. It is especially helpful after a big hair color change, when your brows no longer match your new shade.

  • Henna brows

    Henna is a plant based dye that colors the brow hairs and can lightly tint the skin underneath, giving the look of a fuller shape. It is listed on our spa menu; text the salon to ask about booking it.

  • Brows and lashes together

    A brow service pairs naturally with a lash lift or tint, since both frame the eyes. Booking them together means everything around your face looks finished at once, with only one visit to plan.

More about brow Wax and Tint

What to expect at your appointment

Your brow service is added to your hair visit, so it fits into the same appointment. Check in with the Guest Care Team or on the iPad and grab a drink while you settle in. Every service begins with a consultation, which is when you talk about the shape you like, how full you want your brows, and whether the color should match your hair.

A wax is quick and tidy. A tint is brushed onto the brow hairs, left to develop, then removed. If you have sensitive skin, say so first.

Aftercare and maintenance

After a wax, skip heavy makeup, exfoliating products and heat on the brow area for the rest of the day so the skin can settle. After a tint, gentle cleansing helps the color last, while oil based removers and scrubs fade it faster.

Brows grow back and tints soften gradually, so most guests simply refresh them at their next hair appointment. Your stylist can tell you when your brows are ready again.

How pricing works

Brow pricing depends on which services you choose. Eyebrow wax and eyebrow tint are priced separately, so booking both costs more than one alone, and henna brows are listed as their own service. Because wax and tint are add ons, your total also includes the hair service you pair them with. See the Service Menu for current pricing.

Frequently asked questions

Can I book a brow wax without a hair appointment?

When you book online, eyebrow wax and eyebrow tint appear as add ons to a hair service, so the easiest way is to add them to a cut or color. If you only want brows, or you want henna brows, text the salon and the Guest Care Team will help you find a time.

What is the difference between a brow tint and henna brows?

Both add color. A standard brow tint deepens the color of the hairs themselves. Henna is a plant based dye that colors the hairs and can also lightly tint the skin underneath, which gives the look of a fuller shape. Your stylist can help you choose.

Should my brows match my new hair color?

They do not need to match exactly, but they should look like they belong together. Very dark brows can look heavy after going much lighter, and light brows can disappear after going darker. Your stylist can suggest whether a tint would balance your new color.

Will waxing irritate my skin?

Some redness right after a wax is common and usually settles quickly. If your skin is sensitive, or you use strong skin care such as retinoids on your face, tell your stylist before the wax begins so they can decide whether it is right for you that day.

How do I know when it is time to redo my brows?

You will notice stray hairs filling in around the shape, or the tint starting to look lighter. Many guests refresh their brows each time they come in for hair, which keeps things simple and means brows never need their own appointment.
