Cosmetic procedures are performed to reshape body structures and change a person’s appearance. One of the common treatments of these procedures is permanent makeup. This cosmetic procedure enhances your features like your eyes, lip color, and eyebrows.Â
So, if you want defined and permanent eyebrows, you can use permanent makeup cosmetic treatments. These techniques provide a long-lasting solution for eyebrow shape and color. The choice of a permanent brows technique depends on the current state of your skin and eyebrows.
Let’s discuss different types of cosmetic treatments for permanent eyebrows.
Eyebrow Microblading
Microblading is a manual procedure involving a hand tool with razor-like needles arranged in a blade shape. The expert creates fine hair-like strokes that imitate natural brow hairs. The results appear gently painted on and far more natural than traditional eyebrow tattoos’ firm, filled-in appearance. It’s the perfect choice for anyone looking to give shape, density, or definition to their brows.
During the session, a topical anesthetic is administered to make you comfortable. The specialist then uses the microblading tool to apply pigment to the skin’s upper layers, drawing on each hair individually.Â
The entire procedure takes about 2-3 hours. Initially, the brows look darker and more defined, then lighten up to a softer outcome within 1-2 weeks. Your skin removes the outermost layer of pigment by natural exfoliation. The results can last for 12-18 months before requiring a touch-up.
Eyebrow Micro shading
Micro shading is particularly beneficial for people with oily skin or who frequently sweat. This procedure is helpful for those with sensitive skin.
Microblading is also diverse from shading in that it employs a different method. The micro shading artist applies repetitive pin-point dots to produce hair strokes instead of using individual hair strokes. This enhances the adhesion of pigments to oilier skin.
Styles of Micro shading
There are two main kinds of micro shading. The appearance of your eyebrows depends on your desired level of boldness or softness. You can add several effects to it, and it’s adaptable.

Hair Strokes Brows
Hair strokes are also known as machine hair strokes and nano brows. Although microblading is a more popular technique for creating hair strokes, the machining process can also do the same. The difference is that microblading involves cutting into the skin, while tattoo machines create strokes using multiple dots from a single needle.
Compared to microblading, it is less painful, lasts longer, and has more flexible stroke designs because it doesn’t cut the skin.Â
The advanced hair stroke technique combines solid lines and pixelated strokes and creates hyper-realistic, dimensional eyebrows. It is the modern form of eyebrow tattooing and can only be completed using the machine approach. This is due to the high level of services vital to making this kind of eyebrow tattoo.
Powder Brows
Powder brows, also known as ombre brows, are suitable for people with oily skin. It involves assembling layers of soft, pixelated shading. If you frequently use a pencil, powder, or pomade to fill in your eyebrows, this technique and treatment can achieve the same effect through a machine.
You can get a delicate and light finish at the front of the brow, which progressively darkens toward the back. If you want a more defined shape and a richer color, this technique is flexible to your demands.
Combination Brows
The combination brow procedure combines natural hair strokes at the start of the brow for a soft look, followed by shading at the arch and tail for a polished look. Typically, customers have less hair on the tails of their brows, which is the area that requires the most attention during tattooing. That is why shading is often the best technique for achieving well-defined permanent eyebrows.
