Ombré Brow
Ombré shading is a semi-permanent eyebrow styling technique that uses a small machine to place extremely thin dots of pigment into the skin, creating a soft-shaded brow pencil look. For most beauty lovers, leaning into your mirror to precisely fill in your eyebrows is the most stressful part of your routine. This method is very similar to traditional tattoo and the application involves thousands of tiny dots of pigments inserted into the skin to gradually build up color and defined shape. The result is a powdery faded front and a crisp tail to resemble the look of makeup. The technique is less invasive, less painful and it heals more naturally than micro-blading. It's suitable for all skin types and pigmentation retention is between 2-3 years.
