Brow-chicka-
brow-brow!
Lash lovers often say that the longer the lash, the closer to God. While you may not be looking for a full spiritual awakening, having flawlessly styled lashes and brows will definitely have doors opening for you at the snap of your freshly manicured fingers. We believe your eyes are the focal point of your face and deserve the best possible care through professional lash lifts and brow lamination. At our Ottawa nail salon and beauty bar, we help you achieve that runway look while keeping your morning routine completely effortless.
Wax on. Wax off.
Enough said.
Just between us friends, no one really loves waxing, but most folks do not love a unibrow either. Our skin calming Azulene wax is great for even the most sensitive skin and our ultra calming hard wax is sure to leave you feeling smooth without the stress. We believe that hair removal should be as comfortable as possible, which is why our Ottawa nail salon and beauty bar focuses on high quality products that protect your skin. Whether you are looking for a quick brow shape or a full service treatment, our professional team ensures you leave our space feeling refreshed and unbothered.

We honour our
land’s history
With respect for our planet and our First Nation Peoples, we acknowledge that our city, Ottawa, and our business are built on the unceded land territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation. The peoples of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation have lived on this territory for millennia. Their culture and presence have nurtured and continue to nurture this land. At Smudge Beauty Bar, we honor this history as we strive to build a sustainable and inclusive nail salon and community space.
