Frequently asked questions.

1. What are the benefits of ombré powder brows, and how long do they last?

Ombré powder brows are a semi-permanent brow tattoo technique that creates a soft, shaded makeup look with a gradient effect. This method is ideal for all skin types, including oily or mature skin. Results typically last 1–3 years with proper aftercare and annual touch-ups. Clients love the low-maintenance, smudge-proof finish that enhances natural brow shape.

2. What’s the difference between brow lamination and brow tinting?

Brow lamination lifts and sets your brow hairs into a fuller, more defined shape, while brow tinting adds temporary color to enhance the appearance of thickness and symmetry. When combined, these services can completely transform your brows for up to 6–8 weeks. Perfect for those seeking a fluffier, polished look without daily grooming.

3. Is a lash lift and tint safe for sensitive eyes?

Yes, a lash lift and tint is generally safe for sensitive eyes when performed by a licensed esthetician using high-quality, gentle products. A consultation/patch test can be requested to ensure your comfort. This treatment lifts and darkens natural lashes without extensions or mascara, lasting 6–8 weeks.

4. How do I choose between ombré brows and microblading?

Ombré brows are best for clients who want a soft, filled-in look that mimics brow makeup. Microblading creates hair-like strokes but may not last as long or heal as evenly on oily or mature skin. If you're unsure which brow tattoo method is right for you, book a consultation to get personalized recommendations based on your skin type and goals.

5. What’s included in a facial at The Beauty Spot?

Our custom facials are tailored to your skin type and concerns and may include double cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, facial massage, a targeted mask, and finishing serums. We use professional skincare products like Glymed, IMAGE Skincare, and Colorescience. Whether you're treating acne, fine lines, or sensitivity, we’ll create a treatment plan that works.

6. How do I prepare for my first brow or skin appointment?

Please arrive with a clean face and avoid exfoliating or waxing the brow area 48 hours prior to your service. For PMU brow clients, avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood thinners the day of your appointment. You’ll receive detailed prep and aftercare instructions upon booking to ensure the best results from your treatment.

7. How long does brow tint last in Tampa’s heat and humidity?

Brow tint typically lasts 2–3 weeks on the hair and up to 5–7 days on the skin, depending on your skin type and aftercare. In Tampa’s hot and humid climate, we recommend keeping brows dry for the first 24 hours and avoiding heavy sweating to prolong results. Pairing tint with a lamination can give a longer-lasting, bolder look.

9. What’s the difference between brow henna and brow tint, and which is better for me?

Brow henna and brow tint both add color and definition to the brows, but they differ in ingredients and how long they last. Brow henna is a plant-based, semi-permanent dye that stains both the skin and brow hairs—giving a more filled-in look that lasts up to 2 weeks on the skin and 4–6 weeks on the hair. It’s a great option for clients with sparse brows or those wanting a longer-lasting result. Traditional brow tint focuses more on coloring the hairs and typically lasts 2–3 weeks. If you're in Tampa and unsure which service is best, we’ll help you choose the right option based on your brow goals and skin type.

10. What’s the difference between brow waxing and threading, and which is better?

Both brow waxing and threading are effective hair removal methods, but they use different techniques. Brow waxing uses warm wax to remove multiple hairs quickly and is great for creating clean, defined lines—especially for those with thicker brows. Threading uses a twisted cotton thread to remove hair with precision and is ideal for clients with sensitive skin or those prone to redness after waxing. If you're in Tampa and unsure which method is right for you, we’ll evaluate your skin type, sensitivity, and desired brow shape to recommend the best option during your appointment.
