If you have sparse or light-coloured brows, you have probably at been intrigued by the idea of permanently inking your brows with microblading. But if you suffer from sensitive skin, you might be worried to try the microblading treatment. The answer could well be microshading brows, a gentler alternative.
Microshading Brows On Sensitive Skin
Microblading is performed by fine tattooing lines throughout the entire brow to resemble natural hairs. It is used as a way to fill out sparse eyebrows, or add a new definition for a fuller look. It is related to micro feathering, which his the same idea except the pigment is only applied to the areas without natural hair.
Microshading is also based on the same basic idea — a permanent pigment is applied to your eyebrows with the use of small tattoo needles — but it uses a slightly different technique. It is often referred to as a ‘Shadow Effect,’ which gives the eyebrow a gradient appearance made up of small pin-point dots. By contrast, microblading uses tiny, natural-looking hair-strokes. At first, it looks like the eyebrows have been drawn on with harsh lines but after about a week, the block colour fades, leaving a softer, fuller-looking shape. The dots work the same way as pictures are printed in newspapers, blending together to create the illusion of a solid block of colour.
So, why would you choose to go with microshading instead of microblading? Experts in skin care say that it is better for people who have sensitive or oily skin as the microshading technique takes better to those skin types.” Just like microblading, a microshading treatment will last you anywhere from one to three years with regular maintenance and the right aftercare.
