Microshading: The Perfect Shadow Eyebrow Tattoo Technique

October 06, 20212 min read

Microshading is also called "Shadow Eyebrow Tattoo Technique." The inconspicuous shading technique of tattooing eyebrows was used relatively recently. The main rule of this method is the complete lack of clear contours. After the procedure, the eyebrows acquire a well-groomed appearance, as if they were lightly colored with a pencil.

The shading technique allows you to tattoo the eyebrows closer, or vice versa, gently overpaint, but with the most natural result.

With the right eyebrow color and shape, the face looks younger and better groomed. A large number of photos are posted on the Internet, on which you can see the effect created and compare the photo before and after the shadow tattoo.

The master works out individual parts of the eyebrows more intensively with a darker shade, while other areas are less sharp with light pigment.

Eyebrow tattoo, made in the technique of "shadow shading", is no less painstaking than others. In this case, careful selection of the right pigments and phased application is required.

The most popular option, taking into account the reviews, is soft shade, with a slight haze effect, suitable for almost everyone. The lack of clear contours allows you to adjust the shape once every 2-3 years.

The hatching technique allows you to solve several problems at once:

  • Emphasize the natural shape of the eyebrow by slightly correcting it;

  • Make a new correct turn;

  • Dramatically change the shape;

  • Create a visual effect of thicker eyebrows if the hairs become uneven or too thin;

  • If the eyebrow is completely or partially missing hair, the effect of their presence is created;

  • Apply pigment to a separate part of the eyebrow or color it completely with different shades;

  • To mask existing defects, an excellent option for correcting scars, scars;

  • Reshape or color your eyebrows.
