Drawn forone face

A brow should belong to the face it frames.

Ivora is a brow atelier in Nitra. Brows are all we do, one face at a time, never in a hurry.

Brow mapping up close: a fingertip in a black glove draws a fine pigment-dusted thread taut along the line of the brow above a closed eye.

We measure before we draw, and draw before we begin. The best result is the one people notice on the second look.

Microblading

For sparse, uneven or patchy brows.

Fine strokes of pigment, drawn by hand one at a time in the direction the hairs grow. The brows look natural, even without make-up.

Book microblading

After the first visit, you come back once so we can finish the brows. And again, about a year on, to renew them.

Part of every new microblading.

Once healed, some pigment fades naturally. We fill in the strokes and settle the shape and colour.

When
4–8 weeks later
Takes
1–2 hours
Book a touch-up

For healed microblading that has softened with time.

We refresh the colour and gently redraw the shape, so the brows stay clean and defined.

When
every 12–18 months
Takes
1½–2 hours

And one treatment that stands apart.

For unruly, coarse or downward-growing hairs.

Your own hairs are set in one direction and held there. The brows look fuller and more groomed, without a single stroke of pigment.

The four stages of microblading

  1. A consultation at a marble table by the window: the client smiles and listens while hands in plum sleeves sketch a few soft brow shapes on cream paper.

    Consultation and mapping

    We talk about your face, your habits and the brows you have in mind. The shape is measured, drawn on and adjusted until it is right for you. Only then do we begin.

  2. The client rests with her eyes closed on a paper-covered bed under the warm gold crescent lamp, wrapped in a soft blanket.

    The treatment

    Fine strokes are drawn by hand, hair by hair, along the shape you agreed. A numbing cream keeps you comfortable. All you do is lie back.

  3. Morning at home: a woman in a linen robe sits by the window, a cup of tea in both hands, looking out.

    Healing at home

    At first the colour looks deeper. Then it flakes softly and seems to fade for a while before it settles. Keep the brows dry and leave them be.

  4. A woman steps out of a doorway into a street full of late sun and glances back over her shoulder with a soft smile.

    The touch-up

    Once healed, we look at the brows together. Any strokes that softened are refined and the shape is finished. Only now is it truly yours.

Straight with you,start to finish

If microblading is not right for you yet, we will say so plainly and suggest what to do instead.

  • Pregnancy or breastfeeding

    Hormones change how the skin heals and how it holds pigment.

  • Isotretinoin

    If you have taken it in the last six months. It leaves the skin thin and fragile.

  • Blood thinners

    Unless your doctor agrees. Bleeding pushes the pigment back out of the skin.

  • Irritated skin

    Eczema, psoriasis or inflammation around the brows needs to settle first.

  • Fresh Botox

    On the forehead within the last two weeks. The brows may still shift.

  • Very oily skin

    Fine strokes tend to blur in it. Lamination is often the better choice.

We are not doctors. If you are unsure, ask your own doctor first. We are happy to wait.

  1. A glass of water, an upturned wine glass, folded sunglasses and a skincare bottle set aside on cream plaster.

    The week before

    • No tinting, waxing or plucking.
    • Skip retinol and acids on the forehead.
    • No tanning or sunbeds.
    • No alcohol, aspirin or ibuprofen for two days before, unless prescribed.
  2. A sealed sterile pouch, a roll of fresh paper and black gloves on a rose-gold tray.

    On the day

    • Come with clean skin and no make-up on your brows.
    • Eat beforehand and skip the morning coffee.
    • Bring photos of brows you like, if you have any.
    • Set aside two to three hours. Nothing is rushed.
  3. A dry folded towel, a closed porcelain jar of balm and cotton buds on a blush linen napkin.

    The first two weeks

    • Keep the brows dry and free of make-up.
    • No sauna, pool or hard workouts.
    • Do not pick the flakes; they fall away on their own.
    • You go home with written instructions, and we answer questions by message.
