What is Ombre/shading?

---

This technique involves lightly scratching the surface (epidermis) of the brow area with a fine needle, which deposits pigment into the skin. Final healed results will mimic a solid brow that looks filled in with a brow pencil.  

                                                     Ombre technique

 Ombre brows will result in brows that have a soft look which starts with a very softly pigmented bulb (beginning of brow) which transitions to a slightly darker toned middle section and darker tail, which creates a beautiful transition. This technique is preferred and recommended for clients with OILY skin types/all skin types and last longer than microblading. Clients with little to no brow hairs will benefit tremendously with this technique. This technique is also less invasive than microblading.

                                                       Powdered technique

The powdered technique is similar to the Ombre technique. In contrast, this technique will provide a more dense brow throughout the whole, without any transition and with a more defined bulb (beginning of brow).  Also recommended for all skin types ESPECIALLY OILY SKIN. 

                                                        Microblading

Microblading involves using multiple tiny needles which creates a blade looking effect to create lines in the skin that mimics hair strokes. These lines deposit pigment into the skin with each stroke. Recommended for DRY SKIN TYPES/clients who only want to add hair to sparse areas of the brows.  May require sooner touchups. Not recommended for OILY SKIN TYPES.

                                              Microshading/Combo brows

This technique is a combination of all the techniques combined, depending on what look trying to be achieved.
