When it comes to semi-permanent makeup for eyebrows, the myriad of options can be overwhelming. The most sought-after techniques at Esthetica by Dr. Shangavi are Microblading, Ombré Powder Brows, Combination Brows, and Nano Brows. But what sets them apart, and more importantly, which one is right for you?
Microblading is the classic choice for a hyper-realistic, natural look. Using a highly precise hand tool, we create fine, hair-like strokes that mimic the natural direction of your brow hair. It is ideal for clients with normal to dry skin who want to subtly fill in sparse areas without looking 'made up'. However, microblading typically fades faster on oily skin or mature skin.
Ombré Powder Brows, on the other hand, offer a soft, powdered makeup look. Using a digital machine, we pixelate pigment into the skin, gradually fading it from a darker tail to a lighter front. This technique is universally flattering, heals beautifully on all skin types (especially oily or mature skin), and generally lasts longer than microblading.
Nano Brows (Machine Hair Strokes) is an advanced technique offering the hyper-realistic look of microblading but created using a digital machine and a single ultra-fine needle. This causes significantly less trauma to the skin, making Nano Brows suitable for almost all skin types (including oily skin) with better color retention and softer, crisper healed strokes.
Combination Brows combine the best of both worlds. We use nano machine hair strokes at the front of the brow to keep it fluffy and natural, while using the ombré shading technique through the body and tail for added density and definition. It’s perfect for clients who have very little natural hair and want a structured yet textured look.
During your consultation at Esthetica, we carefully analyze your skin type, bone structure, and lifestyle to recommend the perfect technique for your unique face.
