Deidre Rosado offers mcroblading and threading of brows and hopes to soon include lip blush and more services.
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Deidre Rosado is ready to give your brows the perfect sculpted look.
The permanent-makeup artist opened Precision Brows at 644 North St. with a grand opening on Wednesday
The studio offers threading and microblading, which is described as a semi-permanent solution to define eyebrows.
"Microblading is basically a form of tattooing that is done differently than actual tattooing. We use a pen with a flex blade and a pigment versus ink that will eventually change color overtime," said Rosado.
She explained that she picks the color based off someone's natural hair color and shapes the eyebrows based on bone structure.
"I've always been into stuff like this and microblading was really interesting to me, so I just kind of did it. It's been a lot of hard work," Rosado said.
Threading is the use of twisted cotton thread to pluck out hair from the root and can be used alone or with other brow treatments like microblading.
Rosado trained 100 hours with Sarah Delaney at Zero To Microblading, a training program that also covers business operations, and a 200-hour apprenticeship with April Jordan, owner of Rock'n Ink, before opening her studio.
"She's meant to be one of the business leaders for our area, she did an amazing job very she was very particular and adamant but always question if she didn't know she wanted to know so she was so focused and stayed on top of everything she was so focused and her having her own business is something that is meant for her," Jordan said. "I’m proud of her, super proud of what she accomplished."
Jordan says it is nice to see a new place like this in Pittsfield for people to come and enjoy.
"I just want to see her thrive, I just want to see Pittsfield come up and people be able to do these cares and maintenance to themselves and you know it's a lot of things that we lose sight of just taking care of who we are but having a professional business like this gives woman or man the opportunity to clean their look up and feel nice," she said.
Mayor Peter Marchetti also stopped by to welcome her to the neighborhood and listen to what she does. He helped with cutting a red ribbon to open the studio.
Rosada says she will soon be offering lip blush services, and hopes to add more services soon.
Precision Brows is open Monday through Friday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Saturdays 10 to 7 and Sundays 10 to 6. Appointments can be made by calling 413-553-1059.

Housing Secretary Edward Augustus cuts the ribbon at The First on Thursday with housing officials and Mayor Peter Marchetti, state Sen. Paul Mark and state Rep. Tricia Farley-Bouvier.
PITTSFIELD, Mass. — The holidays are here and several community members are celebrating it with the opening of two affordable housing initiatives.
"This is a day to celebrate," Hearthway CEO Eileen Peltier said during the ribbon-cutting on Thursday.
The celebration was for nearly 40 supportive permanent housing units; nine at "The First" located within the Zion Lutheran Church, and 28 on West Housatonic Street. A ceremony was held in the new Housing Resource Center on First Street, which was funded by the American Rescue Plan Act.
The apartments will be leased out by Hearthway, with ServiceNet as a partner.
The First Street location has nine studio apartments that are about 300 square feet and has a large community center. The West Housatonic Street location will have 28 studio units that range between 300 to 350 square feet. All units can be adapted to be ADA accessible.
The West Housatonic location is still under construction with the hope to have it completed by the middle of January, said Chris Wilett, Hearthway development associate.
Brown hopes to one day work in a lab, feeding their strong interest in scientific research and making a positive difference in the world.
