Permanent make-up has made life easier for many women. Especially popular is the tattoo of eyebrows, because they rarely have the ideal shape and size from nature. The techniques of permanent make-up are constantly being improved, this provides the most natural and aesthetic result.
What is eyebrow microblade?
The described procedure is a tattoo, which is done by the master manually. Understand what microblasting is, help a detailed study of the tool to perform it. Outwardly it looks like a ballpoint pen with a flat brush. The tip of this device consists of the thinnest needles, the thickness of each of them does not exceed 0.2 mm. Together, they form a kind of beveled blade, which allows the specialist to make microreguns or deep scratches on the skin and inject pigment into them.
What is the difference between microblasting and eyebrow tattooing?
The fashion for the classic version of permanent make-up has already passed. Progressive masters often recommend microblading eyebrows to clients - what it is, it's easy to understand during comparison of the technique in question and a standard tattoo. An obsolete way of introducing pigment involves the use of a machine with thick needles. This is associated with vibration, less accuracy of drawing and a greater depth of elaboration, which provokes the painfulness of the procedure.
Another criterion, helping to choose tattooing or microblasting, is the appearance. Eyebrows in the classical technique of permanent make-up are completely clogged up, one solid stripe. As a result, they look as if drawn with a pencil or marker. With the help of microblasting you can achieve accurate drawing of individual hairs, which provides an amazing naturalness.
What is the difference between microblasting and hair tatoo?
This version of permanent make-up looks more natural than classic, but also inferior to the technique described. The hair method is a drawing of parts by a machine, which is similarly accompanied by vibration and a certain blurriness of the contours, a large depth of penetration of the needle (up to 8 mm). Much more accurate and painless is the microblooding of eyebrows - what is it, you can see in the comparative photos.
With the hair technology of permanent make-up, the strokes are thick and packed in only one direction. It looks natural only from afar, with close examination it is clearly visible that the details are drawn. Tattoo eyebrow microblooding is devoid of such shortcomings. The lines are very thin and sharp, the hairs are drawn in 3 different directions and almost do not differ from the natural ones.
How is the micropigmentation of the eyebrows done?
This manipulation is carried out in several stages, similar to the standard tattoo. Microblasting techniques include:
- Preliminary consultation. Master discusses with the client the wishes about the shape of the eyebrows , color, bending. Offers optimal solutions, suitable pigments.
- Correction. Cosmetic pencil marks the working area, draws the future boundaries of the eyebrows. Superfluous hairs are removed by tweezers.
- Disinfection. The skin is thoroughly treated with an antiseptic.
- Anesthesia. Local anesthetics are used, for example, Emla gel.
- Tattooing. A specialist dips the tip of the instrument into the selected paint and draws eyebrows, introducing needles with a pigment to a depth of 3 mm.
- Postprocessing. Excess paint is removed with a cotton disc. The skin is disinfected and lubricated with a healing cream.
The strokes are a little thicker at the base and thinner at the ends, like natural hairs. Experienced masters draw them in different directions and apply several shades of pigment, which provides the most natural appearance. The result can be evaluated immediately after the microblasting was performed - before and after the procedure the eyebrows differ substantially. This is evident in the photos below.
Is it painful to make eyebrow microblading?
The answer to this question is simpler if you study the way to perform the procedure. It is important to talk in advance with the tattoo master about microblading of the eyebrows - what it is and how it is performed. Given the way the pigment is applied to the skin, manipulation is characterized by soreness. Unpleasant sensations are quite tolerable, the needle penetrates into the epidermis shallowly, which is comparable with a scratch. The procedure for microblasting is less painful than classic tattooing. Local anesthesia helps to minimize discomfort.
Micropigmentation of eyebrows in the technique of spraying
An alternative name for the type of permanent makeup described is a powder tattoo. Not all women have heard about microblasting of eyebrows by spraying - what it is, you can see in the photo below. This variant of the procedure assumes the presence of hairs of normal density and width. Puddle tattoo is designed to fill small voids in the eyebrows and designate their shape. The effect of applying it is similar to staining with shadows or a soft pencil.
Often the classical micropigmentation of eyebrows 6D with a drawing of the individual hairs of the master is combined with the technique of spraying. This approach helps to achieve the ideal results:
- a clear form;
- the desired width of the eyebrows;
- adding hair;
- masking of defects;
- filling voids;
- color enhancement.
How long does microblooding brow?
The technique described is a shallow introduction of pigment, only 2-3 mm under the skin. For this reason, one of the drawbacks of the procedure is how much microblasting is held in comparison with the classic tattoo. The service life of the standard permanent make-up is 3-5 years, after which the paint begins to gradually fade. Almost 3 times (1.5-2 years) is less stable micropigmentation of the eyebrows - how much the result stays depends on the regularity of the corrections and the correctness of care. Given the high cost of microblasting, this is not very profitable.
Micropigmentation of eyebrows - correction
Immediately after manipulation, the color and structure of the drawn hairs will be bright and expressive, but this is a temporary effect. A little later, the damaged skin will be covered with small crusts, and the shade will fade. Exactly a month later will have to repeat microblasting - correction is needed for the final design of eyebrows. The vanished and pale strokes will be neatly restored, and the missing pigment is replenished. Repeated corrections are performed as needed, their frequency depends on the type of skin, its fat content and the recommendations of the tattoo master.
Eyebrow care after microblasting
To get a good result and extend the life of micropigmentation, it is important to strictly adhere to the advice of a specialist. Given that the skin is not severely traumatized by microblasting, healing takes place quickly and painlessly.
To accelerate the healing is recommended:
- In the first 3 days after manipulation, do not wet your eyebrows.
- The treasure must be carefully cleaned with a cotton pad dipped in chlorhexidine or miramistine.
- For 72 hours, do not apply cosmetics to the treated areas, do not touch them with hands, do not sunbathe.
- From 3 to 5 days after the microblasting session, lubricate the eyebrows with a healing cream or ointment (Bepantin, Panthenol) in the morning and evening.
- Do not remove the crusts, they must fall off on their own.
- When leaving the street, especially in spring and summer, apply to the skin with sunscreen.
- During the month avoid bathing, sauna, swimming pools, beaches.
Should I make eyebrow microblading?
The presented procedure refers to expensive services, because such manipulation requires high skills of the master of tattooing, use of the highest quality tools and materials, and each hair is drawn manually. Because of the cost and short service life, many women doubt whether microblasting should be done.
If the eyebrows are asymmetrical, too thin and thin, there are scars or other defects on the skin, micropigmentation is the best way to give them the desired shape and structure. Similarly, this procedure is recommended for people suffering from trichological diseases, hair loss on the background of hormonal disorders or ionizing radiation. No other method will allow to achieve such naturalness as microblasting.
