Jo Lewis
Hey everyone, I’m Jo, award winning brow obsessed artist, educator & salon owner. I’m so incredibly honoured & excited to be back for the second year to judge The Brow Awards 2023!!
I’ve worked in this industry for 19 years so have seen many different trends come & go however ‘Brow Lamination’ is my bag! Close second or maybe even joint first is a ‘Signature Brow’ with a precision hybrid dye! That crisp bottom line makes me drool!
Educating fellow brow artists is where my heart is at, I love empowering others, I love seeing people grow on a professional & personal level. I teach brow courses in person & online, my courses are jam packed with all the nitty gritty details along with all my hints, tips & secrets, nothing is left uncovered. They also go deeper into the holistic side of life & I help you understand how you get that work, life balance, how to set goals & manifest what you want to achieve in life. I’m a big believer in everything happens for a reason, you are always where you need to be & if want something bad enough you can make it happen!
You’ll also see me over at The Brow Mag as a senior journalist. We chat all things brows, fave products, upcoming brands, events & artists. It’s a place where we celebrate the wins, build people up & champion our fast growing brow community.
I’m so excited to see your entries, I’ll be looking out for super sleek, glossy, healthy looking laminated brows with a beautifully soft & subtle skin stain & perfectly clean tweezed or waxed skin. I’d love to see more individuality & personality to your photo entries, have fun with it & showcase different angles, poses & backdrops.
Good luck, I can’t wait to meet you all at The Awards.
Love Jo

Hey, I’m Ashley Roberts or as I’m professionally known 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑩𝒓𝒐𝒘 𝑾𝒊𝒛𝒂𝒓𝒅 ®

I’m a permanent makeup artist, specialising in natural but noticeable cosmetic tattooing for both men and women. I own and operate PSYKHE STUDIO, which is based in Staffordshire as well as travelling to my other clinic locations in Mayfair and Surrey.

Emily Pitman

She believes that there is room for everyone in the industry and loves to see people succeed.
Emily is passionate about raising the standards with the beauty industry so she is a hard judge to please and rarely hands out a 10/10. Her top tips would be: zoom in on every single picture you take, pay attention to detail, don’t go overboard on the make up, keep your logos out of the photo, include a full face picture of your client sat up. Imaginative, quirky photos definitely will raise your game! Emily works full time as a teacher and welcomes finalists to ask for feedback on their entry to help develop their brow skills.

I was always an artistic child, drawing & painting! I have an ever growing love and passion for what I do, there is nothing like doing what you love each day. I am so lucky I get to continue my love for ART through BROWS. I have inspired others all over the world to have fun and let their colourful personalities shine through their work! That it’s ok to be different. I can’t wait to see what magic awaits at the brow awards 🪄
