What is the Difference between Ombre Brows and Microblading?

Ombre Brows

Ombre brow is a shading effect that mimics powder or tint, with a gradual fade from the tail to the head of the brow. It’s performed with a digital machine that implants pigment at a much quicker speed, enables more passes without causing scarring to the skin. 

Microblading

Microblading uses a bladed hand tool to cut into the skin, to mimic hair-like strokes and deposit pigment. Once the cuts have been made, pigment is left of the skin for several minutes to further penetrate the cuts to allow for more visible color. If you have any of the following you may experience retention issues with microblading: 

 

  • Oily skin
