First things first! What is a hybrid dye?
A hybrid dye/brow stain is a unique product that combines the best of both worlds, resembling a mix between standard chemical dye and henna. It stamps onto the skin like henna but works like a chemical dye, giving you long-lasting results. However, it’s not a true mix of both; hybrid brow stain is not derived from the henna plant and doesn’t require rose water but uses an oxidant, just like chemical dye.
Why Choose Hybrid Brow Stain?
- Long-lasting: It stays on the skin for up to 10 days and colors the brow hairs for 7-8 weeks.
- Wide Color Range: With both cool and warm tones, you can tailor it to each client’s preference. For example, blondes may love shades like Blondie or Ashy Babe, or a mix of both for the perfect tone!
- Easy Application & Removal: The stain is simple to apply and remove, making it user-friendly and effective.

How to Use:
- Prep: Clean the brows with a cleanser or ZOËS pre-wax argan spray. Scrubbing is optional, but it’s not necessary when paired with a brow lamination.
- Mix: Mix the dye in a 4:2 ratio on a mixing palette and ensure it’s well-blended.
- Apply: Apply the dye with a stamping technique, starting from the tail of the brow for an ombré effect.
- Optional Intensity: For an extra intense effect, apply a second layer once the first layer is dry.
- Processing Time: The processing time depends on skin type and desired result. We usually recommend 2-4 minutes for the front and 5-10 minutes for the tail for a darker, more defined look.
- Removal: Remove the brow stain with a conditioner or post-wax lotion for the best results.
Aftercare:
- Dry for the first 24 hours and avoid moisture.
- No sauna or steam baths for the first 24 hours.
- Avoid self-tanner for 3 days before and after the treatment.
- Be cautious with products like exfoliants, scrubs, SPF, and other skincare products to preserve the brow stain for as long as possible.
