Highbrow & Rouge
I am so excited to offer specialty services like microblading that are trending in other parts of the world and larger cities to Ann Arbor. Katelyn kicked off her beauty career in 2004 graduating from Ann Arbor's Huron Valley Beauty Academy. Shortly after working locally doing hair she relocated to Orlando to begin studying advanced courses in makeup artistry and special effects.

One of her first gigs after becoming certified was with Universal Studios Orlando creating magical creatures with special effects makeup as well as on set for film, television, and local theatre. While working in Chicago as a freelance MUA for musicians and educating the transgender community on DIY makeup Katelyn decided to add yet another skill to her ever-growing beauty tool kit.
Services
Based on facial morphology and the golden proportion (phi 1.618), Microblading is a service in which a certified and trained technician creates brows with a hand-held tool by marking where hair would ideally be. Pigment is applied manually in the surface layer of the dermis. The pigment is selected based on the natural color of the eyebrows and hair.
Little clusters of lashes arranged beautifully with your natural lashes to have the look of fuller longer lashes. Perfect for events or to create a more glamorous look with your makeup. Consultation: Complimentary; Patch testing is recommended for those who've never previously had lash extensions, have sensitivities to adhesives or allergies.
Permanent Makeup, also known as micropigmentation has benefits that go beyond the ability to save time on your morning routine. The treatment is done for various reasons including but not limited to scar camouflage, disguising asymmetries within features, application of pigment to areas that have lost color with time or trauma, and the cosmetic application for enhancing the face for esthetic beauty.
Highbrow & Rouge uses Temptu brand airbrush makeup. Every look is completely customizable from natural to dramatic. The coverage is buildable to achieve light to heavy coverage. The skin appears healthier, younger and more radiant-looking with this long-wear, transfer and water-resistant formula that provides the most natural skin-like finish.
Usually Microblading is done in two sessions (it can take up to 3) to ensure optimal results. The first takes two to three hours. In the first session, the brow is shaped and styled to the client's preference, and pigment is applied. Four to eight weeks later, the client returns for the second session for the perfection treatment, This can take one to two hours.

Katelyn is the best. She is professional and passionate about what she does and knows her stuff. I was really nervous about getting this procedure, but she was so reassuring and told me everything I needed to know up front. My permanent liner is so natural looking. I LOVE IT. She books way out so contact her asap for a thorough consultation. You'll be so happy you did :)

I researched microblading and brow shading services in Michigan for a really long time before finally deciding to come in for a consultation with Katelyn. She is so kind and knowledgeable about the entire process and she is truly a professional in permanent makeup technique. You can also find examples of her work on her instagram page. I had my service done after things started re-opening from covid shutdown and Katelyn took extra care to make sure that everything was clean and sanitized in the studio, and she utilized appropriate PPE to reduce risk as much as possible. I felt completely safe having

I’ve had a lash tint and lift and my brows microbladed by Katelyn in the last few months and I won’t go anywhere else now!!! The lift and tint lasted much longer compared to other places where I’ve had it done . I am beyond thrilled with how my brows look, Katelyn’s dedication to her craft sure shows in her work!!!

Katelyn is awesome! She loves to help people and does great work. As a male that suffers from trichotillomania, I finally decided to find permanent solution for eyebrows. I'm so glad that I did. Katelyn did an excellent job microblading and shading. My brows look incredible and natural. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Katelyn. She is professional, caring, and extremely skilled and careful. I had never had any service similar to this, but wanted improvement of my thinning and shapless brows, and wow, I am so pleased with the process and with the results of the microblading I received. She takes care to ensure as much comfort during the process as possible and is excellent with instructions and after care. Her background is impressive, yet she doesn't rest on her laurels, she follows through with integrity. There is a lot of hype out there about this kind of work - so if you are interested,

Katelyn is very meticulous and a perfectionist in the services she provides. I have had eye lash tints and lifts, as well as eyebrow design. I am now thinking about the possibility of eyebrow microblading. I would highly recommend Highbrow and Rouge for any of the services on their website.

Kateyln is amazing to work with. She has a very warm and kind personality. She is very skilled. I got a lash lift and tint. I have very light lashes and strawberry blonde hair. I wanted darker but still natural looking lashes. She customized the tint color to be warmer compliment my hair color instead of just tinting them straight black. Her facility is very clean and professional.

After doing a ton of research for longer thicker, natural looking eyelashes...I found Katelyn and her adorable little beauty spot in AA. Ive had microblading done by a Phi trained person and Katelyn is as well, so I knew she would be competent, clean and well skilled. Well, she was all of that and more. I finally now have the lashes that Ive dreamed of and tried to achieve, but never could. If you're considering lashes or eyebrows...you only need to go here. I'm a medical professional and I know what to look for...Katelyn is top notch.
I can't seem to load the before & after pics here, but ask

Katelyn was so nice! The space was cute and clean. Katelyn explained each step of the process prior and made sure I was entirely comfortable. The lift and tint is a great option for people who can't sustain the price of eyelash extensions. Highly recommend!
