Now the trend is for colored hair, eyeliners, bright and even fluorescent mascaras that glow in the dark. The tattoo on the face is gaining momentum among young people. The streets of large cities were filled with girls with bright, unusual shades of hair. Pink, yellow, green, blue, purple - all the colors of the rainbow. And at some point, the owners of colored hair wondered: what to do in this case with eyebrows?

Before we had time to enjoy and get tired of all sorts of techniques for dyeing hair in all the colors of the rainbow, a new beauty idea appeared on the threshold. A real find for bold fashionistas has become a new trend - colored eyebrows. And not only on the catwalks, but also in life.

Eyebrows are considered to be the frame of the face and female beauty in general. There is nothing surprising in the fact that they have finally received the attention they deserve from women around the world. Sometimes, however, these experiments lead to completely unexpected results. The latest trend has just begun to take root in the vastness of our country, but in the West it is already actively used by local celebrities. From the catwalks, the novelty quickly went to the masses and Kaley Cuoco, Lady Gaga and Katty Perry have already stood out with colored eyebrows.

Many girls match the color of their eyebrows to the color of their hair, others, on the contrary, try to play on contrasts, and still others paint their eyebrows according to their mood. And someone gets tired of painting, so they apply for colored permanent makeup.

The effect lasts up to 2 years, as in the usual permanent makeup of the eyebrows, the color tattoo gradually fades, despite the fact that tattoo paints are used.

The spraying is very superficial and, taking into account modern methods of removal, the effect can be eliminated with the help of a remover, as well as simply blocked.

I want to note that only an experienced master who knows the technique of spraying (light surface application of pigment) can take on color permanent makeup of the eyebrows.

If you still decide to go towards fashion trends, then we start by trying on a sketch. First, apply foundation or makeup base to your eyebrows. Then, using a brush or sponge, apply shadow on the eyebrows. This way you can decide on the color. Take a photo of the eyebrows with the new color. After that, it is necessary to clean the eyebrows and build the shape in the usual way for the eyebrow permanent procedure. It is possible to perform multi-colored gradients, any effects agreed with the client.

In my work I use tattoo inks from such companies as Intenze, Eternal, World Famous. I carry out the procedure with KWADRON 1RL needles - 0.25, 0.30.

From experience from my own practice, I can say that colored eyebrows transform the face of our clients no worse than standard shades for permanent eyebrows.

It seems that natural beauty and natural shades are becoming a thing of the past, giving the green light to bold decisions and daring experiments on your own appearance.
