Gordon Salon's Beauty Services include makeup application, facial waxing, and brow tinting, available at select Chicagoland locations alongside its core hair services.
Get eyebrow waxing done a week before an important event, not the day of, so any redness or minor irritation has time to fully settle before photos.
There's brief discomfort during the wax pull itself, but it's quick — arriving with clean skin, no lotion or makeup on the brow area, and avoiding waxing right before or during your period, when skin tends to be more sensitive, can make it more comfortable.
Waxing removes hair in sections using warm wax and is generally faster, while threading removes hair strand-by-strand using a twisted thread for more precision — Gordon Salon offers waxing as part of its beauty services menu.
Brow tinting deposits semi-permanent color into the brow hairs to add definition and fullness, and it typically lasts 3–6 weeks depending on your skin's natural exfoliation rate and how much you cleanse the area.
Yes, tinting and waxing are commonly done together in one appointment, waxing first to shape, then tinting to add definition and depth to the finished shape.
Most people rebook every 3–4 weeks to stay ahead of regrowth and keep a consistent shape, though this varies depending on how fast your brow hair grows.
Generally yes, but tell your esthetician about any sensitivity, recent skincare treatments like retinol or peels, or reactions to waxing in the past, so they can adjust the wax type or skip areas that might react.
Avoid sun exposure, retinol, and other strong actives in the days before waxing, and avoid direct sun, hot showers, and touching the area unnecessarily for at least 24 hours after.
Tint shades are mixed to closely match your natural hair color or your desired brow tone, and your esthetician will formulate the right shade during your appointment rather than using a single fixed color.
Brow tinting adds color and depth to the hairs themselves, while brow lamination resets the direction hairs grow to create a fuller, more uniform brushed-up look — they solve different problems and are sometimes done together.
Avoid plucking stray hairs yourself between visits, since it's easy to over-correct and throw off the shape your esthetician built — let small regrowth wait for your next appointment instead.
Yes, facial waxing services typically extend beyond brows to areas like the upper lip, and Gordon Salon's beauty services menu covers general facial waxing, not just eyebrows.
No — this is a common myth. Hair that grows back after waxing may feel softer at first since it hasn't been cut with a blunt razor edge, but waxing does not change hair thickness or growth rate.
A brow wax or tint typically takes 15–20 minutes on its own, or slightly longer if you're booking both services together.
Both — bring a reference or describe what you want, and your esthetician will also advise on what shape realistically works with your natural brow growth pattern and face shape.
Resist tweezing at home, use a nourishing brow serum if you're trying to fill in sparse areas, and be patient — brow hair grows slowly, so a full grow-out phase can take a couple of months.
You can typically wear makeup right away after tinting, but wait a few hours after waxing to let any redness settle, especially before applying anything directly on the freshly waxed skin.
Beauty services like makeup, facial waxing, and brow tinting are available at select Gordon Salon locations — check with your preferred location or ask when booking to confirm availability.
