LASH, BROW & EAR · READING
Balance and structure, in millimetres
Brows frame the face and lashes open the eye, and both are decided by a couple of millimetres either way. Eight treatments from £12 — tinting, shaping, the LVL lash lift and Hopi ear candles.
Five of the eight need a patch test
Both tints, the tint & tidy, lash & brow tint and LVL.
Brow pluck, HD Brows and Hopi ear candles.
Tinting and Nouveau Lash treatments require a patch test at least 24 hours in advance. LVL also requires a £5 patch-test deposit and the relevant consent form.
Book the patch test firstWHICH BROW
Point at the shape
Most people cannot describe the brow they want, which is how brows go wrong. Pick a shape as a starting point and we will work towards it within what your natural brow growth supports.
The default, and what suits most faces. A gentle rise, nothing severe.
The peak sits further out and higher. Opens the eye, and it is the least forgiving to grow back.
Almost no rise. Reads younger and softer, and needs the most growth to hold.
A curve rather than a peak. Softens a strong jaw or a square face.
NOUVEAU LVL
Your own lashes, lifted at the root
A low-maintenance alternative to enhanced lashes. A four-step process using specially developed products resets the bonds in your natural lashes — no extensions, no glue and no infills to keep paying for.
Seventy-five minutes, and it is the longest appointment on this page by some distance. The patch test is twenty-four hours ahead as with every tint, and LVL additionally takes a £5 deposit and a signed consent form at that first visit.
PLAN TWO VISITS
A couple of minutes today, the treatment tomorrow
Five of the eight treatments need a patch test at least twenty-four hours ahead. It is the one thing on this page we will not bend, including for weddings.
A dot of tint behind the ear or inside the elbow. For LVL, the £5 deposit and the consent form are done at the same visit.
Fifteen minutes for a brow tint, seventy-five for LVL. Tell us when you book if you have had a test here recently and we will check the date.
WHAT EACH ONE DOES
Four kinds of appointment
Eight treatments that split three ways — brows, lashes, and one ear treatment with no relation to either.
Brow pluck
Strays removed, the shape you already have kept. Fifteen minutes, and no patch test.
Tinting
Colour into the hair itself, so sparse areas read fuller. Brows, lashes, or both together.
LVL lash lift
Your own lashes, reset at the root over four steps. No extensions, no glue, no infills.
Hopi ear candles
A warm, quiet forty-five minutes. Unrelated to lashes and brows, and often booked alone.
ALL TREATMENT PRICES
Eight lash, brow and ear treatments
£12 to £55, with the patch test marked on every line that needs one so nobody arrives on the wrong day.
BOOKED TOGETHER
Lashes and brows in one sitting
Both tints together is £35 in the same half hour, against £42 booked separately — and it is one patch test rather than two.
Two millimetres is the whole difference.
Brow shape is decided by a couple of millimetres at the tail and a couple at the peak, which is why it is worth having someone map it before anything is removed — and why growing a mistake back takes weeks rather than days.
ALSO ON THIS PAGE
Hopi ear candles
Nothing to do with lashes or brows. It shares this page because it shares the treatment room — a warm, quiet three quarters of an hour, no patch test, and it goes well after a massage.
