Nano Combo Brows
The best of both techniques, fine hair strokes at the front blended with soft powder shading through the body for a defined, full brow.
Strokes and shading, together.
Combo brows pair hand-drawn strokes at the front of the brow with soft powder shading through the body and tail, combining natural movement with polished density.
It's a versatile choice for most brow types, mapped to your shape during consultation. Because it layers two techniques, it's the most involved of our brow finishes, and the result reads full at the front and softly defined through the tail. Color settles over a few weeks and is refined at your follow-up perfecting session.
Your visit, step by step.
Consultation & brow mapping
Every appointment opens with a consultation and facial mapping, so your brow shape, symmetry, and proportion are planned around your features before any pigment is placed.
Pigment selection & numbing
Your artist selects a pigment matched to your skin tone and undertone, then applies a topical numbing step to keep the longer session comfortable.
Strokes, then shading
Fine hair strokes are hand-placed at the front of the brow for natural movement, then soft powder shading is layered through the body and tail to build polished, even density.
Healing & perfecting session
Color looks more defined at first and softens over a few weeks as it heals. Your included follow-up perfecting session refines shape, strokes, and tone once the first pass has settled.
Who it's for.
Nano Combo Brows are a versatile choice for most brow types, and a strong fit if you want both natural, hair-like detail at the front and fuller, defined density through the body and tail. It works well for sparse or uneven brows that need shape rebuilt, as well as fuller brows that simply want more polish and structure.
If you prefer a fully soft, misty finish, Nano Powder may suit you better; if you want only fine strokes with no shading, Nano Hair Stroke may be the better fit. Your artist will help you choose at your consultation.
Common questions.
What's the difference between Combo and Powder brows?
Combo blends hand-drawn strokes at the front of the brow with soft powder shading through the body, while Powder Brows use shading throughout for a fully misty look.
How long does a Nano Combo Brows appointment take?
About 50 minutes, including consultation, mapping, and the appointment itself.
How long does Nano Combo Brows last?
Most results last about one to three years, depending on your skin, lifestyle, and aftercare. Periodic touch-ups keep tone and definition looking fresh, priced by how much time has passed since your original appointment.
Does it hurt?
Most clients find it very manageable. A topical numbing step is used throughout the session, and many describe the feeling as light pressure rather than pain.
