5 different types of semi- permanent brows:
Microblading, Microshading, Nano, Combination, Powder Ombre.
Each brow style serves a purpose and has a distinct look. The hardest part is choosing what you want to achieve with your brow.
how is it done?
Aside from microblading, all brow tattoos are done with a permanent makeup machine which is similar to a tattoo gun, we use an Artmex v11. this permanent makeup machine utilizes state-of-the-art computerized technology, so we can achieve perfect results.
the V11 can reach depths of 0.3mm, however, we stick to a depth of 0.1mm, Pigments are not only organic but contain smaller particles that are easily absorbed by the body, allowing these pigments to slowly dissipate and fade naturally.
a popular choice for years; the procedure is completed with a hand-held device, similar to a scalpel, this instrument contains a collection of 10 to 16 fine needles.
the technician uses pressure to create small incisions where pigment is then deposited.
Each stroke replicates real hair, and the end result is a brow that looks nearly identical to natural hair patterns.
micro-blade
Nano Brows have the same outcome, except nano brows are created with a permanent makeup machine.
By using the machine, strokes are consistent in depth (so they last longer), and strokes are thinner (so they look like hair).
Not to mention the procedure hurts less and takes less time.
nano
hese mimic brows filled with makeup. If you wanna make real changes, this is the option. Pigment is pushed into the skin to completely fill in the brows, pigment is lighter at the front and darker tails of the brows, there are no hair strokes, just colour.
powder
micro-shade
combo
popular a few years ago, but has since been forgotten. Microshaded brows look airbrushed and are incredibly beautiful. By using a stippling method, pigment is pushed into the skin, creating small dots, instead of strokes. Microshading isn’t designed to make changes to the brows but just enhance the natural beauty, I find they look best on dark hair and/or thicker brows.
use both Microshading and nano techniques.
Combination brows are great for those who have little to no tail but don’t want to change the front too much.
The front of the brow has hair strokes tattooed among the natural hairs to look more natural and the ends are Microshaded. These would be considered the 2019 instagram brows, or the influencer brow.
