15 – Which technique should I perform?

We currently have several micropigmentation techniques, the difference being in the type of device used and the way they are performed. See below:

Ombre Line:  extremely subtle, hairy effect, making the arch darker in the region that tends to have less hair, and leaving the beginnings of the eyebrows lighter. This technique is suitable for those who have slight flaws.

Durability: 8 to 12 months.

Shadow Line:  this type of micropigmentation is indicated for those who prefer well-marked eyebrows. In this technique the threads are drawn, creating a shading between them. This gives the impression that the eyebrows are fuller, more voluminous.

Durability: 8 to 12 months.

Magic Shadow:  it is a technique with transparency, very soft, indicated for those who have thinning hair all over their eyebrows, this background effect gives the impression of more volume.

Durability: 6 months.

Magic Eyebrows:  (Thread by Thread Micropigmentation) hyper realistic: they are wefts of threads, of different tones and directions that create beautiful natural effects on female and male eyebrows, where you can work in up to 3 shades.

Durability: 8 to 12 months.

Compact  Eyebrows:  it is a technique that has a pigment saturation in the region to obtain a very marked eyebrow, similar to the old definitive ones in aspect, in this technique the complete filling of the eyebrows is carried out.

Durability:12 to 18 months.

​

Microblading – It is a technique within the immense universe of micropigmentation. Although both “deposit” pigment under the skin, they are different techniques, performed in different ways, with results that are also different from each other. To perform the procedure, an inductor is used  with a blade of different sizes and number of tips, for better execution and perfection in yarn designs. The wires are designed with different curves and sizes, depending on the case's needs. Unfortunately not all people can perform the ¨Microblading¨ technique. For example:

  Very mature skin, which has wrinkles in the eyebrow area, should avoid the technique.

skins  very oily or black phototype 5 and 6, as they smoke the hairs.

In these cases, the most suitable technique is micropigmentation.
