Eyebrows are known to make or break your look. Be it the thin, fine brows that were on vogue in the 90s or the thick, dark and bushy eyebrows of this decade, women have been trying to achieve the best look for their eyebrows. Nowadays, in addition to the basics of threading and waxing, many brow treatments have also come into the picture. Let us tell you about them with these 5 brow treatments to enhance your eyebrows. They are available widely now, so you can get one for yourself very easily.
1. Brow Lamination
Instagram has spread this treatment far and wide. Brow lamination was seen on the best of models and actresses in the last couple of years. Now brow lamination is seen in masses too. What exactly is this brow treatment?
It is a treatment where your brow hairs are straightened using a skin-safe solution. Then these hairs are brushed and set in place as per your shape preference. This gives the illusion of thicker, fuller eyebrows that are in trend now.
Duration: Brow Lamination may last for 6-8 weeks.
Maintenance: Not much maintenance required.
Who Can Get It: Anyone who wants to get thicker and fuller brows but only for short term.
2. Brow Tinting
Brow tinting is for those women who want to change the color of their brows, or cover greys. It is also a good treatment for adding some more definition and volume to your eyebrows. How is brow tinting performed?
A color of your choice or one that your aesthetician chooses matching your hair and skin tone is used to dye the brow hairs. This stains the skin underneath as well, adding to the illusion of thicker and more voluminous brows. Most women choose a shade lighter than their hair color to make the look more natural, while some also experiment with funky colours like purple, green and even pink.
Duration: Brow Tinting may last anywhere between 3-6 weeks. It depends on your hair growth, just like a hair dye.
Maintenance: No maintenance required.
Who Can Get It: Anyone who wants some change in eyebrow color.
3. Henna Brows
You read it right, henna can also be used for tinting eyebrow hairs! If you want to experiment with cosmetic tattoo or permanent makeup, but are not quite ready yet, then henna brows is your buffer. Henna brows are very temporary, and fade in about 2 weeks, making them perfect for an upcoming celebration or event. How are henna brows done?
Henna pigments are used to shape, fill and lift your eyebrows. This adds tint to your brows hairs and the skin underneath, but the results are very short-term. Also, henna is an age-old method, a powder derived from leaves of the Henna tree, used extensively to apply designs on the skin (hands, arms, feet) and also dye hair in the Middle East.
Duration: Henna brows last for up to 2 weeks.
Maintenance: No maintenance required.
Who Can Get It: Anyone who wants some temporary brow lift.
4. Ombré Brows
Ombré Brows is a permanent makeup technique where a safe medically-graded pigment is deposited in the upper layers of your skin in tiny dots to fill the sparse areas of your brows. This gives the illusion of a soft, brow-pencil shade. This is like a tattoo, except it fades over time and goes away completely, leaving your skin and brow hairs in their original form.
Duration: Ombré brows last for 2-3 years, depending on many factors like skin type, lifestyle, health etc.
Maintenance: Yearly touch-ups are required.
Who Can Get It: Anyone who wants to get natural-looking thicker brows long-term.
5. Microblading
Microblading is another permanent makeup technique that adds more definition to your eyebrows than ombre brows. In microblading, the safe, medically-graded pigment is deposited in the upper layers of your skin in small, fine, hair-like strokes. This gives the illusion of your natural eyebrow being thick and full, something that would otherwise take lots of makeup and time to achieve. That is why microblading is one of the best permanent makeup techniques around, and used extensively by celebrities and Instagram influencers currently.
Duration: Microblading lasts for 2-3 years, depending on many factors like skin type, lifestyle, health etc.
Maintenance: Yearly touch-ups are required.
Who Can Get It: Anyone who wants to get natural-looking thicker brows long-term or has lost their brow hairs due to alopecia, chemo treatments or age-related factors.
