Nano Brows vs Microblading: Which One Fits You Better?


There are many options to consider when it comes to permanent makeup for the eyebrows, however, the two most popular techniques are nano brows and microblading. Although both methods perform similarly to fill in the eyebrows, there is an important difference between them.


What technique will suit you better: nano brows or microblading? This question depends on the following criteria: skin type, age, lifestyle, existing eyebrow hair and desired result.


What Are Nano Brows?


Nano brows are performed with the help of the machine and thin needle that implants the pigment in the skin through hair-like strokes.


Advantages of Nano Brows:


* Hair-like strokes

* Less traumatic effect on the skin compared to regular microblading

* High precision and control over the implanting process

* Better retention on certain skin types

* Natural look


What Is Microblading?


Microblading technique is performed manually through hair-like strokes in the skin and pigment implantation.


Although microblading can provide amazing results on a certain client, it is mostly recommended for:


* Younger skin

* Normal and dry skin types

* Minimal sun damage

* Small pores and firm skin


Which Technique Is Better for Oily Skin?


Oily skin requires a nano brows technique.


When performing microblading technique on oily skin, the strokes tend to heal softer and fade over time. Thanks to a greater control over the implantation process, the results of nano technique are usually better.


Which Technique Is Better for Mature Skin?


Here comes the surprise!


Although nano brows are a great option for some mature clients, it is not always the best one. As the skin gets older, it becomes thinner, more fragile and sensitive; it also becomes more textured because of the aging process and sun exposure.


Due to the mentioned reasons, nano brows are not always healing as crisp and retaining pigment as expected; strokes become soft and blurry.


Powder brows or combo brows can give a better flattering and long-lasting result for mature clients because of a soft shading effect that adds definition and fullness to the eyebrows.


Every client in Kaviar Skin Studio is treated individually. Some mature clients are good candidates for nano brows, while others need powder or combo brows.


Which Technique Looks More Natural?


Both nano brows and microblading can look natural when performed correctly.


However, sometimes natural does not mean hair-like strokes. For example, in some cases, powder brow looks more natural because it blends perfectly with the client's brow hair and skin texture.


Natural look is the one that suits your skin type.


Which Technique Lasts Longer?


Longevity of the procedure depends on such factors as:


* Skin type

* Sun exposure

* Skincare products used

* Lifestyle of the client

* Aftercare procedures

* Technique chosen


No permanent makeup technique lasts forever, it is recommended to make maintenance appointments from time to time to keep your eyebrows looking perfect.


Why Customized Approach is Important:


One of the biggest myths about permanent makeup is that the same technique is suitable for everybody.


Beautiful eyebrows are not made by following the trends, but by choosing the technique that suits the client best.


In Kaviar Skin Studio, we consider such aspects as skin type, age, existing eyebrow hair, lifestyle and aesthetic preferences of the client before recommending the best technique. Whether it is nano brows, powder brows, combo brows or something else – we create eyebrows that heal beautifully and look great for a long time.


Conclusion


Nano brows and microblading are useful in different cases, but they are definitely not universal techniques.


The best technique is the one that will give you the best results based on your skin type. After evaluating your brows during the consultation, we will recommend what will give you the best chance to be satisfied with your eyebrows for a long time.
