Combo Brows
What is Combo Brows?
Combo Brows, also known as Combination Brows or Hybrid Brows is a semi-permanent makeup technique that combines microblading hair strokes with machine microshading or powder brow techniques. This fusion creates a harmonious and natural-looking brow enhancement that suits a wide range of tastes and styles..
Benefits
Combo Brows offer a range of benefits that make them a popular choice among those seeking semi-permanent eyebrow enhancements:
1. Natural Appearance: The combination of microblading strokes and machine shading creates a natural, three-dimensional look that mimics real brow hair.
2. Long-Lasting: Combo Brows typically last 1-2 years, reducing the need for daily eyebrow makeup.
3. Customization: Your artist can tailor the shape and color of your brows to complement your facial features and personal style.
4. Time-Saving: Wake up with flawless brows every day, eliminating the need for daily grooming and makeup application.
Process
1. Consultation: Your journey to stunning Combo Brows begins with a thorough consultation. During this session, you’ll discuss your desired brow shape, color, and any specific concerns or preferences with your permanent makeup artist. This step is crucial to ensure your Combo Brows align with your unique features and personal style.
2. Pre-Drawing: Before the procedure, your artist will pre-draw the brow shape to serve as a guide. This step allows for precision and ensures you’re comfortable with the chosen design.
3. Microblading Strokes: Microblading involves the use of a manual hand tool equipped with fine needles to create hair-like strokes by depositing pigment into the skin’s upper layers. This step adds texture and mimics the appearance of natural eyebrow hair.
4. Machine Microshading or Powder Brow Technique: After microblading, a machine equipped with specialized needles is used to add shading and depth to the brows. This technique results in a soft, powdered finish that complements the microbladed strokes.
5. Color Customization: The pigment color is carefully selected to match your natural brow color or your desired shade. This customization ensures that your Combo Brows appear both natural and flattering.
Pre-Care
Before your Combo Brows appointment, follow these pre-care guidelines to ensure the best possible outcome:
1. Avoid Blood-Thinning Substances: Refrain from consuming alcohol, caffeine, and blood-thinning medications or supplements for at least 24 hours before the procedure.
2. No Waxing or Tinting: Avoid waxing or tinting your eyebrows in the week leading up to your appointment.
3. Consult with Your Artist: If you’re on medications or have any medical conditions, consult with your artist to ensure the procedure is safe for you.
Post-Care
Aftercare is crucial to maintain the longevity and appearance of your Combo Brows:
1. Keep Them Dry: Avoid getting your brows wet for at least 14 days after the procedure.
2. Skip Makeup: Refrain from applying makeup to your brows for the two weeks.
3. Avoid Sun Exposure: Protect your brows from direct sunlight and tanning beds, as UV rays can cause premature fading.
4. No Touching: Resist the urge to touch, pick, or scratch your healing brows.
5. Follow Artist’s Instructions: Adhere to any specific aftercare instructions provided by your artist.
