What is the difference between ombré brows , nano brows and combo ?Ombré Brows - Ombré brows are a semi-permanent eyebrow tattooing technique that creates a gradient effect, with a lighter color at the front of the brows and gradually darkening towards the tail. This technique creates a natural-looking, filled-in eyebrow appearance. It gives the illusion of softly defined eyebrows with a more polished look. Nano Brows - Nano brows are a semi-permanent eyebrow enhancement technique that using a very fine tattoo needle to create tiny, precise hair-like strokes in the eyebrows. The needle used in nano brows is thinner than the one used in traditional microblading, allowing for more detailed and realistic results. Nano brows are designed to mimic the appearance of natural eyebrow hairs, resulting in a fuller and more defined eyebrow look. This technique is often preferred by those with sparse or thin eyebrows who want to achieve a natural and long-lasting result. Combo Brows - Combo brows is a technique that combines two different methods: nano & Ombré brows . This technique aims to achieve a more textured and defined brow look by combining the precision of nano strokes with the softness and depth of shading. Hair-like strokes are applied in the sparse areas of the eyebrows, simulating the appearance of natural hairs. Then, a shading technique is used to add a soft wash of color to the rest of the brow, providing depth and dimension. The combination of strokes and shading results in a more realistic and fuller-looking set of eyebrows.
