It’s vacation time!
Can you believe that I have not had a vacation in about 10 years? I’ll blame in on my being a workaholic but it’s finally gotten to the point where I just gosh darn need one. So I’m off to Los Angeles today for a week and then off to Las Vegas for the CosmoProf Beauty Trade show that I”ve been trying to get to but haven’t been able to for the past 4 years. And on top of that (yeah, I know it’s a ‘working’ vacation but still!) I’ll add a few more days to Las Vegas for a little R&R that’s so badly needed. I just cannot wait!

But don’t worry, I’ll be back the end of July hopefully all refreshed, and sunburn free, and ready to go again for say,maybe the next ten years? Just kidding!
So keep those eyebrows on hold for me… I’ll be back soon!

How To Book Tips: How Long to Wait?
How Long To Wait
I’m always amazed at how long most clients wait before coming in to see me for a brow shaping. Especially if it’s for the first time. And I don’t mean days.. I mean months. Longest I’ve heard? Six months.
Depending on how fast your brows grow, I would say anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks is a good time frame. Yes, I can do more when there’s more hair, but keep in mind, that the longer the wait, the more hair that needs to be tweezed in places where it’s not even needed (i.e. between the brows, above, or far below the brow line).. so it only means that you’re walking around with iffy brows that much longer.
So don’t feel you need to grow in your eyebrows for 2-3 months before you make that appointment. 2-3 weeks is usually enough to reshape or fix a brow. If you’re looking to to grow very thin eyebrows thicker, then give it a month.

Brow Tip: It’s only the hairs that are closest to the brow line that are going to actually change to resize the brow. Everything else will most likely get tweezed/waxed away.

Elke brings brow services to NYC!
If you’re in NYC, you’re so in luck! Why? Starting March 24th, I will be doing brows at the super chic salon, Janet Rufin’s Parlor in Manhattan.

Janet’s salon is a premiere, top rated hair salon as seen in Allure and New York Magazine and I’m thrilled to be able to offer all my brow services to Manhattan, like The Model Brow Service:
Elke’s Model Brow service offers a highly customized, no stencil approach to getting the perfect brow shape for your face and bone structure. A complete analysis starts the 30 minute procedure, where you can get your brows either waxed, or tweezed, as per client request. The service is then completed with brow makeup and tips and tricks to get your brows looking model perfect. Also, the normal 30 day waiting period is not needed to get your brows on the right track. Two weeks is all that’s needed to start getting your brows back on track and corrected, since Elke’s speciality is reshaping and fixing botched up eyebrow jobs; usually in one visit.
