Why you should not tattoo your eyebrows?

As with any wound, there is a chance that once it heals, your skin can scar. “Long-term brow tattooing can cause scarring to the skin. Your initial round of microblading will be fine, however two years later the touch-up work needs to be approached differently to ensure minimum impact on the skin,” says Pampling.

Can you tattoo eyebrows?

Eyebrow tattoos are permanent. Once the ink is tattooed onto the skin it is there for life (although undesirable fading of the ink as mentioned above is possible). Once you have an eyebrow tattoo, it’s forever unless removed via tattoo removal treatments.

Is microblading and tattoo the same?

Is plucking eyebrows bad for you?

Plucking isn’t bad for your eyebrows. However, you should be careful not to over‑pluck, as the hairs don’t always grow back and you can run the risk of permanently losing your most flattering shape. It’s always good to use a mix of threading, waxing and tweezing, depending on what is needed to create the perfect arch.

Is eyebrow feathering worth it?

Cosmetic eyebrow feathering can help you achieve the look you want and help you maintain it. If your brows are patchy and thin from previous plucking, you find makeup routines timely and costly or you simply want to enhance your facial features, eyebrow feathering may be for you.

How much do tattooed eyebrows cost?

The actual procedure could cost anywhere from $300 to $500, but it doesn’t stop there. Follow-up appointments could cost you a further $100 to $150. You see, even though eyebrow tattoos are considered a form of permanent makeup, the ink fades over time.

What hurts more tattoo or microblading?

Traditional tattoos use a machine, while microblading typically uses a manual tool. Microblading will most likely feel different and hurt less than a traditional tattoo because of the numbing cream (anesthetic) applied prior to the procedure, and because there are fewer needles involved.
