Everything people ask us about Hi Brow, our tinted brow gel. If your question is not here, message us and we will answer it properly.
What is Hi Brow?
Hi Brow is our tinted brow gel, a multi-purpose one-step brow finish. It adds colour and dimension while soft-focus fibers give your brows more thickness and volume. Brows look naturally gorgeous, soft and full, and never feel stiff or crunchy. Long-lasting brows, ready in a flash.
What is the difference between Hi Brow and a brow pencil?
A pencil draws individual strokes to fill gaps and define shape. Hi Brow works across the whole brow at once, tinting the hairs you already have and adding fibers for fullness and hold. Most people use them together, and it is our own favourite way to wear it. As Celene Gee puts it: Obsessed with Hi Brow! Perfect just after the precision brow pencil. Pencil for shape, Hi Brow to set, tint and lift the whole thing.
Which Hi Brow shade should I choose?
Hi Brow comes in seven shades: Blonde, Brunette Lite, Fawn, Sable, Cool Brunette, Copper and Warm Brunette. Match to your brow hair rather than your hair colour, and when you are between two, go lighter. Lighter reads soft and natural, and you can always build. If you would like a second opinion, message us and we will match you.
How do I apply Hi Brow?
Apply Hi Brow onto the brow hairs for added depth, dimension, colour and hold, then blend through with the brush until you have the shape you want. Brush up and out through the arch for a lifted look. It takes seconds, which is rather the point.
Will Hi Brow feel stiff, crunchy or flaky?
No. That is the thing it is built to avoid. Hi Brow holds without the hard, lacquered feel of a traditional brow gel, so brows stay soft and touchable. It is made with sodium hyaluronate to hydrate and panthenol to condition the brow hairs, so it is looking after them while it holds.
Is Hi Brow good for thin, sparse or over-plucked brows?
Yes, this is where it earns its place. The soft-focus fibers cling to the hairs you have and make them read thicker and fuller, so brows look denser without looking drawn on. If your brows are very sparse in patches, use a Precision Brow Pencil first to fill, then Hi Brow over the top to blend everything together.
What is in Hi Brow, and is it vegan?
The formula is built around sodium hyaluronate for hydration, panthenol to condition the brows, and soft-focus nylon fibers for thickness and volume. Hi Brow is not vegan: it contains beeswax and carmine, a colour additive derived from insects. If you are looking for a vegan brow option, get in touch and we will point you to the right product.
How much is Hi Brow and where can I buy it?
Hi Brow is $30 at geebeauty.ca and $24 at geebeauty.com, in a .12 oz tube. You can also buy it in person at our Toronto, Miami Beach and South Miami studios, where we will happily match your shade for you. Shop Hi Brow.
Should I get a brow service, or is Hi Brow enough?
They do different jobs and they work best together. A service sets the shape: brow threading gives you the arch, tinting adds depth at the root, and a brow lift, also known as brow lamination, creates a lifted, fuller effect that lasts four to six weeks. Hi Brow is what you use at home between visits to keep that shape tinted, full and in place. Have the shape done in studio, wear Hi Brow in the days in between.
Brows, done properly
Hi Brow keeps things full and in place at home. For the shape itself, our Toronto studio does Brow Threading ($42), Brow Tinting ($36) and the Brow Lift, our brow lamination treatment, which lasts four to six weeks ($155, or $195 with a tint, or $225 for the Brow Lift Trio with a thread and tint).
