“Having brows feathered means all I need to do is apply tinted sunscreen and lip gloss and I have the perfect weekend look!”
Sarah Hudson
As we age, eyebrows droop downwards which can make the whole look tired and aged. A full shaped natural looking brow is a great anti-ageing device as it frames your facial features for a fresh, youthful appearance.
“Feather Brow Tattoo differs to the traditional ‘block’ tattoo. Feathering sits very close to the surface of the skin and this is to ensure the brow tattoo never fades to a blue or red colour over time”

Eyebrow Feathering is performed with a thin row of needles to hand-draw in each brow hair, then a tattoo dye is applied on top and allowed to absorb into the small incisions. The tattoo then takes 3-5 days to slightly crust and heal underneath the skin. Once the crusting has lifted, 50 per cent of the colour will fade and you are left with a subtle, natural looking result.
Who is Best Suited to Eyebrow Feathering?
Eyebrow feathering is great for anyone who has struggled with small gaps through their eyebrows, thinning on the ends or front of the brows, or if you had the previously fashionable ‘thin line look’ and now want brows to appear thicker again.
How Long Do Results Last?
Eyebrow Feathering lasts up to 6-12 months. Brows will need a touch up to maintain the feather brow look as, with your skin’s natural exfoliation, the tattoo will fade. Depending on how defined, full or dark you want your brows will determine how often you have a full touch up.
The Skin by Sarah Hudson Eyebrow Feathering Service
Our Eyebrow Feathering service includes a 45 min brow consult prior to starting the procedure. If you usually apply makeup to your eyebrows, we encourage you to bring your eyebrow pencil, powder or gel and take a photo of how you usually draw them in. This will give Sarah an indication of what you like and how dark/light you are used to seeing your brows.
The treatment begins with a colour consultation while the numbing cream is on, Sarah will describe in detail showing examples of how the brow pigment will look immediately after the treatment and the colour it will fade too – Sarah will make you perfectly comfortable with the colour selection for the brow feathering. Regarding shape and thickness, Sarah will draw in and pencil the shape she recommends and will adjust this until you are both happy. When Sarah begins the Feather Tattoo, she will re-numb your skin so you barely feel any needling.
How Long Does the Treatment Take?
Our Eyebrow Feathering Service can take between 90 mins to 2 hours (including the consultation) depending on the thickness of your brows. It also includes a 1 hour touch up which you can book for 4 weeks post-treatment.
