Q: What's the difference between Microblading & Nano Brows?

Microblading : Microblading is done with a hand tool. A small "blade" comprised of several small needles is used to implant ink. The ink is implanted by slicing the skin. Microblading is NOT suitable for MANY skin types. There is a greater chance of hairstrokes blurring together because microblading is a solid line of ink. Nano Brows : Nano brows are done with a tattoo machine. Microneedles are used to implant the ink. The small needle grouping pierces the skin causing less trauma than cutting. MOST skin types do well with Nano Brows. The hairstrokes are comprised of pigment giving the look of a solid line. The ink is less likely to blur.

Beautifully defined brows can bring balance and definition to your entire face, enhancing your natural beauty in a way that still feels like you. Custom brow tattooing is designed specifically for your features and your style—whether you want a subtle enhancement or a more complete transformation.

What are the Different Brow Tattoo Styles/Techniques?

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to beautiful brows. The right technique depends on your skin, natural hair growth, features and the look you want to achieve.

While “microblading” is often used as a catch-all term for permanent brows, it’s actually just one technique—and not one I use. I specialize in machine techniques including nano brows, powder brows and combination brows, allowing your results to be completely customized to you.

Not sure which one is right for you? You don’t need to be. That’s something we’ll determine together.

Combo Brows

Combo brows blend machine-created hair strokes with soft shading for a natural yet defined look. Hair strokes create a realistic appearance at the front of the brow, while shading adds depth and fullness through the arch and tail. Ideal for those who want natural-looking brows with a little more definition and dimension.

Powder Brows

Powder brows, also known as ombré or micro-shaded brows, use tiny pixels of pigment to create a soft, powdery finish. The result can range from subtle and natural to more defined, depending on your preference. This technique is especially well suited for oily or mature skin and for those who prefer a softly filled-in brow.

Nano Brows (Machine Hairstrokes)

Nano brows use a tattoo machine to create ultra-fine, hair-like strokes that mimic natural brow hairs. Unlike manual microblading, the machine technique is gentler on the skin and can produce beautiful, realistic results across a wider range of skin types. It's an excellent option for those wanting soft, natural-looking hair strokes with minimal shading.

How long does Eyebrow Cosmetic Tattooing last?

The results of Eyebrow Cosmetic Tattooing typically last between 1 to 3 years. The color will gradually fade over time, although not completely. Every BODY and all skin are different and unique to each individual. The longevity of your tattoo is specific to you, your skin type, body chemistry, lifestyle, and long-term care of the tattoo.

Is the procedure painful?

Most clients describe the sensation as mild discomfort, rather than pain. A numbing cream is usually applied before and/or during the procedure to minimize any discomfort. The level of sensitivity varies from person to person.

What is the healing process like?

After the procedure, your brows may appear darker and slightly swollen for the first few days. As the skin heals, some scabbing and light peeling may occur, and the color will gradually soften over a few weeks. It is EXTREMELY important to follow aftercare instructions for optimal healed results and to avoid any complications such as infection, scarring, or inadequate retention of pigment.
