Chicago Microblading by Brows Beauty Couture

Brows Beauty Couture opened its first studio in Schiller Park, Illinois in 2015. It now operates in Chicago's River North area, Park Ridge, Rockford and Milwaukee, and also runs a training academy that the site describes as an accredited IBHE Academy. Brow work is the main focus: microblading, ombre powder brows, nano brows, a fluffy lamination-style look, and their signature combination technique called Flawless Brows. Other permanent makeup options include lip blush, eyeliner, cosmetic freckles and permanent cheek blush. They also do scalp micropigmentation (pricing is set at a consultation), brows designed for men, plasma fibroblast, BB Glow, microneedling, tattoo removal, and brow lamination, waxing and tinting.

The studio says microblading lasts about 2 to 3 years. According to their policy, a finished look takes two sessions, with the follow-up 3 to 8 weeks after the first visit, and some clients need more. Clients must be at least 18. Anyone with an existing brow tattoo has to text a photo and get approval before booking. Appointments can be booked online with a deposit, or by call or text.
