If you know the problem of having sparse eyebrows, you'll know how terrible it is to draw and groom those brows every day before leaving the house. As a permanent solution to this everyday tyranny of shaping brows every day, microblading comes to rescue. This semi-permanent way of filling in your eyebrows with tattoos is called micro blading. To give you defined, arched eyebrows, microblading is one of the best options that last up to a year.

While last year this innovative technique was a rage, this year it seems to be taken over by a new trend called micro shading. This alternative treatment is said to last longer than microblading. Micro shading is claimed to be a fantastic substitute that will give you perfect brows for long.

What is the difference between micro blading and micro shading?

Micro blading is a process of redefining your brows in a way that they look fuller for a semi-permanent basis for like about a year. Feather-like strokes replicating the real brows both in shape and colour are made to make your eyebrows seem like they are fuller than before, brow-like lines are made using a blade, in a process similar to that of tattooing. Cuts are made using a tiny tool that is hand-held in shape of the brow hair and pigments are inserted in it.

On the other hand, micro shading even though involves a similar process is actually done by a better, enhanced tool that inserts the pigment much deeper in the skin for it to last longer. Giving is a sleeker natural look than simple strokes as done in the case of microblading. It provides an illusion of a shadow.

In the real sense, it is claimed that both the techniques are quite similar but highly differs in the quality and finish. Micro shading may give the brow world a better quality option that will have its effects for a longer period of time. You might want to know about the Lions Mane Brows: Goodbye Painful Threading!
