What is the difference between Microblading & Ombré Brows

  • Microblading: using a manual hand held tool to create hair like strokes. Basically making little paper cuts & depositing pigment into them. Only for dry, non sensitive skin.

  • Ombré: using an automatic tool to shade the pigment into your skin. Less abrasive & will heal natural & like a tint on your skin. More universal & the best option for most people, but especially those who have oily, thin, or sensitive skin.

  • They both are semi-permanent & last a very long time. Annual touch ups will happen every 1-3 years depending on how your skin retains the pigment.

    A: I choose what color pigment to use, based off the color of your complexion, eyebrows, & hair.

You will see the full result 28-30 days post appointment.
