Ombre brows are a new method for eyebrow shaping and give you a natural shape of the eyebrow. Against the old way of eyebrow tattoos such as shading, ombre brows have a soft shape with a well-defined eyebrow look. The eyebrows are softer at the crown and more faded and the colour is stronger at the tail of the brows.
In this article, I will explain all the reasons and advantages of the ombre brows and compare them with other methods to see which one would be better for you.
What are ombre brows?
Ombre brows or eyebrow powder ombre, which is also called eyebrow shading, is the latest method of eyebrow tattooing, which creates a very natural look for eyebrows. The ombre brows technique is named because the beginning part of the eyebrows is lighter than the end part. This technique works for all people with any taste, with any eyebrow style and skin type.
Ombre brows have a very elegant design and are very similar to natural eyebrows. Of course, you should keep in mind that this method will fade over time and you should get a touch-up.
Why Ombre brows are a good technique:
The powder ombre brows technique is suitable for all dry, normal, sensitive, and oily skin.
In powder brows, the eyebrow is filled with a shaded technique and there are no hair strokes. In this method, as mentioned, the eyebrows are faded and natural from the beginning, and as we approach the end of the eyebrows, they become denser.
Since the eyebrow shading technique is associated with a little pain, local anesthetics such as Zensa cream should be used.
How long do Ombre brows last?
Ombre brows can be called one of the most long-lasting methods of eyebrow tattooing. The durability of this method is about 4 years, which is 2 to 3 years longer than Microblading. Of course, the durability of this technique also depends on various factors such as the skin type, the quality of the ingredients, the skill of the artist and the aftercare. Ombre brows are also suitable for people with oily skin or the elderly, however, it lasts longer on drier or normal skins.
Like other eyebrow tattooing methods, powder ombre brows need a touch-up session after 5 to 6 weeks, and this makes it last longer, and if parts of the eyebrow have fallen during this time, they will be filled again.
Ombre powder brows aftercare:
After the powder brows, it is better to pay attention to the following aftercare to increase the durability of this method on your eyebrows:
1. Use vitamin A eye ointment 2 to 3 times a day with the help of a sterile cotton swab. This ointment is given to you by our specialist in MB ELEGANT MICRO
2. Do not take a shower until 72 hours.
4. Avoid washing your face, as well as using a towel or pulling a towel over your eyebrows.
5. It is better to use a baby shampoo that is not acidic or alkaline to wash your face.
6. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight for a month so that your eyebrows have their natural colour.
7. Avoid going to the sauna, swimming pool and solarium for a month so that it does not affect the colour of the skin.
8. Do not wear any makeup on your eyebrows for two weeks.
9. Avoid taking the scabs off on your eyebrows because it will cause scars and discoloration in the eyebrows.
10. There may be slight swelling and reddening around the eyebrows for up to two weeks after the procedure.

The difference between the shading eyebrow and ombre powder brows?
There are three big differences between these methods.
1- shaded eyebrow has a frame around the eyebrow while in ombre brows no frame is needed. This gives a light and dark shape at the corners and crown of the eyebrow.
2- Because the shaded eyebrow is worked deeper, the durability of that is more than ombre brows.
3-Ombre brows are more natural with the powdery shape of the pigments.
The difference between ombre brows and microblading.
The difference between microblading and ombre brows:
Ombre brows give a look similar to a fade or shading to the eyebrows while the microblading replicates the hair strokes on your eyebrow.
Another difference between powder brows and microblading is their durability. powder brows technique is more durable than microblading. Also, microblading is more suitable for people with dry and normal skin, However, the powder is suitable for all skin types including oily skins.
In general, it can be said that the choice of microblading and ombre brows methods is entirely a matter of taste. You should see if you are more interested in natural, voluminous, bold eyebrows.
Combo brows method:
This technique is used for people who want to have both techniques at the same time.
According to the customer’s taste, the ombre brows technique and microblading can be combined. In this way, we first create natural lines in the eyebrows using the microblading pen, and then we draw shadows on the edges of the lines and around the edges to make the eyebrows thicker and more coherent. By using the combined method of microblading and powder, both the longevity of the eyebrow tattoo will increase, and it will create a thicker look.
Conclusion:
Ombre brows are a good and ideal choice for people who want to get an eyebrow tattoo due to several reasons such as durable and natural results. In addition, it works on all skins while other techniques are not suitable for oily skins, and this is an advantage of this method.
