It would seem that a brilliant solution to problems: in the morning you wake up already made-up, makeup does not wash off in any weather.

Unfortunately, the success of others does not guarantee you the same brilliant result. The reasons for the fiasco with permanent makeup can be many: from the inexperience of the master to the individual characteristics of the body.

The technique of permanent Browie makeup in particular and female appearance is an inexhaustible source of income for cosmetics manufacturers. While fashionable and not very brands of cosmetics come up with what kind of persistent lipstick or mascara “with the effect of false eyelashes” surprise us, resourceful entrepreneurs have found a new niche.

As you read this article, new graduates of micro-branding and tattooing courses and more and more “unforgettable” results of their work appear.

Permanent makeup procedures Painful and expensive. In addition, even a visit to an experienced master does not promise a perfect result. Among the most common side effects is a change in the color of the injected pigment. Over time, brown eyebrows turn red and black eyebrows turn blue.

Neither you nor your cosmetologist know for sure how your skin will react. Pregnancy, medication, or extreme stress can change color at any time.





Over time, permanent makeup, like any other tattoo, loses its clear shape. Often, clearly drawn eyebrow hairs merge into a monobrow or bald. The depth of the introduction of pigment master can not calculate. Therefore, those areas where the pigment was introduced close to the surface of the skin, burn out. Don't expect the tattoo to go away on its own in a couple of years. It is likely that due to your inheritance, the tattoo will not come off for many years.





They say that microlading More gentle. But it's not all that rosy. Yes, this procedure is not as painful as a regular tattoo. Instead of a needle, a blade is used, applying many small incisions to them, followed by the introduction of pigment into the skin to simulate natural hairs. If these cuts are shallow, the eyebrows will disappear after a month along with the cells of the corneal layer of the epidermis.

Beautiful photos in the portfolio of masters promise a natural result: eyebrows will be indistinguishable from natural! But keep in mind that the pictures are taken immediately after the procedure, the code of the wound is fresh, thin and even. Why not post photos of healed eyebrows? Because after a while the pigment spreads, the painted hairs fuse imperfectly (like any scratches), become thicker and blur.

Then you are offered a correction – applying a few more incisions-hair, which will still behave the same as the previous ones. Moreover, the pigment will come down in a year or two, and scars from cuts will remain on the surface of the skin. They may not grow their own eyebrows due to damage to the hair follicles by the blade.





Healing Permanent Makeup lips can occur with blanching contour, uneven fading of the pigment "pieces" to the state of torn dotted. It is difficult to predict the behavior of the pigment in a year. Instead of crimson lips, you can stay with bright orange.

There is nothing worse than a beautiful woman whose appearance is disfigured and aged with vulgar permanent makeup.





If you are burning with the desire to make life easier for yourself and embellish yourself with “long-playing” makeup, you should think about a few nuances in advance.

How to Prepare for Permanent Makeup
  1. Do not risk your health – require a license from the master to carry out permanent makeup.
  2. To avoid side effects, choose high-quality anesthesia, even if it is not cheap.
  3. If a master offers his services for almost nothing or at the lowest prices, then know: he is either a student or a master using cheap materials. Beware of those who make permanent makeup with tattoo paints!

  4. Sensitive skin sometimes rejects pigment. In order not to repeatedly expose yourself to a painful procedure, it is better to find out from a dermatologist whether you can do a permanent and whether there are contraindications.
  5. A good master can be recognized by his appearance. If he undertakes to create beautiful eyebrows, but they look like seagulls in a deadly peak, then leave without turning around.



  6. Agree to the procedure only in those salons where your friends or relatives have long and successfully gone.


Before deciding to make indelible eyebrows, arrows or lips, we recommend staining henna and trying on different images. Here we have detailed the various risks of hair tattoos.

If nature has given you thick eyebrows, rejoice and try to keep them intact. Remember that fashion can change at any time, and traces of the permanent will remain for life. If you’ve already had this experience, share your story in the comments.
