what's the difference between microblading and nano brows?
Microblading is a sharp instrument made out of 7-16 find needles configured into a blade shape to deposit pigment into the skin. Once the cuts have been made, pigment is left on the skin for several minutes. Voila! Beautiful crisp thin strokes lasting you from 6-12 months. Nano Brows are machine controlled using one super thin needle similar to an acupuncture needle. The very tip of the needle is dipped into the pigment and the vibration pulls the pigment up into the cartridge. It is then dispensed gradually from the needle into the skin allowing for controlled movement, creating flawless hair strokes. Voila! Flawless hair strokes lasting you up to 2 – 3 years. Both cause trauma to the skin, however there are levels are trauma. Microblading can be very traumatic to the skin, especially if it is done a yearly basis, and or if the artist is not properly educated. It is possible to be cut too deep causing scars and no more hair grow in the area being cut. If you have oily skin please avoid Microblading, as pigment will not hold, making the artist press even harder to deposit pigment. Choose your artist wisely, and educated your self, this is your face! Good Luck!
