Shapes Glow Studio

Brow artistry is the focus at this Kitsilano studio on West 4th Avenue near Stephens Street, steps from Whole Foods and Kits Beach. Brow artist Sophie B works one client at a time from a single chair, and the menu covers eyebrow threading and tinting, brow lamination, hybrid brow dye, henna brow tattoos, keratin lash lifts, and lash and brow tinting. Semi-permanent options include microblading, ombre powder brows and combination brows, each booked as a full session with shaping. Skin services add signature facials, dermaplaning, microdermabrasion and IPL photofacials, while waxing covers brows, underarms, bikini, Brazilian, legs, arms and back. A second studio operates in Surrey. Appointments run Monday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., with booking online through Yocale or by phone. Bridal and special-event packages are available at both locations, the studio says.
